Splintered Hearts 1: Quinten Coen [COMPLETED]

Chapter 51

Yesh wanted to laugh as she walked towards the parking lot nang maalala niya ang hitsura ni Quint kanina habang nag-uusap sila sa loob ng sasakyan. He seemed so scared of her that she couldn't help but to giggle.

"What the heck happened to that guy?" Natatawang tanong niya sa sarili na napailing.

When she got inside the car, Quint's still sitting inside. Nakaupo pa rin ito sa passenger's seat and Yesh did her best to make it seem like she's one emotionless woman.

"So, will you let me see her grave?" Kaagad na tanong niya at binuhay ang makina ng sasakyan.

"Yeah. Nakahiram na ako ng eroplano kay Daemon. Do you want me to drive?" Tanong nito sa kaniya kaya naman nginisian niya si Quint.

"Boyfriend ba kita para ipagdrive mo ako?" Nakataas ang kilay na tanong niya at hindi naman ito nakaimik.

She wanted to laugh but she held it in. Inilipat na lang niya ang tingin sa unahan at nagsimulang magmaneho. She had the word satisfied written all over her face and she's not worried that Quint may know. Because he's a dense bastard so he's probably having his thoughts all over his head right now. 

When they arrived at the airport, ipinark lang ni Yesh ang sasakyan niya then she followed Quint's trail. All planes look the same to her. Anong malay niya sa kung ano sa mga ito ang pagmamay-ari ni Daemon?

And when they got inside the plane, Yesh started to watch a movie as soon as she sat down. Ginamit niya rin ang kaniyang ear buds para hindi siya makausap ni Quint. 

Nang maumay si Yesh sa panonood ng pelikula ay nagsimula naman siyang makinig sa music. She glanced at Quint and saw him sleeping in his sit beside hers. Kaya naman tuluyan niya itong nilingon.

Why does this guy look more handsome right now? 

Napailing na lang si Yesh. What the heck is she even thinking? Yesh then decided to just close her eyes. Matutulog na lang siya dahil baka kung ano lang ang magawa niya kapag nanatili siyang gising.

When Quint opened his eyes, he was about to stretch his body when he felt something on his shoulder. 

Nanigas si Quint sa kinauupuan niya nang makitang nakatulog si Yesh at nakahilig ito sa balikat niya. His insides are panicking. Hindi niya alam kung ano bang gagawin niya but he decided to stay still.

It's been so long since they've been this close. And Quint feels like his heart is about to come out of his chest. It's his first time feeling like this. Oo nga at ilang beses na siyang natulala kay Yesh simula nang magkita sila ulit, pero ito ang unang pagkakataon na naging ganito sila kalapit sa isa't-isa.

Quint wanted to hug Yesh. Pero alam niyang hindi pa niya pwedeng gawin iyon. He wants to touch her and hold her in his arms, pero ayaw niyang hindi na naman siya nito kausapin.

Quint sighed as he closed his eyes and tried to sleep. He'd rather sleep than to do something that would piss Yesh off.

Yesh stretched her body as she got out of the car. Kararating lamang nila sa sementeryo and she smiled when she saw Ivy's name.

"Can you stay in the car? I want to be alone here." Sambit niya kay Quint na ilang segundo siyang tiningnan.

He looks like he's worried pero tumango rin naman sa kaniya si Quint.

"Okay. Call me if there's something wrong." Sambit nito kaya naman tinanguan niya na lang ito.

Nang makita niyang makasakay si Quint sa kotse ay humarap siya sa lapida ni Ivy. She closed her eyes as she wished her well.
