Helveryst Series #2 : The Cassanova and The Hater

Chapter 33 - Exhausted

SHAWN AXCEL'S POV

"Ay, shit! Gago, muntik na. Haist. I shouldn't have let her sit in the couch," mahinang bulong ko.

Napangiwi ako nang masipa niya ang bandang hita ko kaya inayos ko siya ng higa sa kama. Shit. Muntik niya nang matamaan ang kinabukasan ko. Good thing she's sleeping so tight that's why she didn't wake up. Pagod na siya. Alam ko. She insisted to help me with my works even though its all Mathematics.

Hate niya ang Math pero pinipilit niya pa rin ang sarili niya.

"Lolo...I-I missed you," she whispered while sleeping.

Napapanaginipan niya kaya si Lolo? Siguro. Miss niya kase siya palagi.

I smiled sadly and covered her with the comforter. Kinapa niya naman ang kamay ko at hinila kaya napasubsob ako sa katawan niya. Mabuti na lang at nakatukod ang isa kong kamay sa kama kaya hindi ko siya masyadong nadaganan.

I sighed and slowly get off her hands from me."Hush. Sleep tight. I'll be right here."

I kissed her forehead before leaving her in my room with the door open. Makikita lang kase rito sa living room ang kwarto ko kapag nakabukas ang pinto kaya makikita ko siya. I still have to fix my things so that I could sleep after. May konti na lang akong tatapusin na hindi ko nagawa kanina nang makatulog siya sa couch. She's a little bit naughty when sleeping so I had to watch her while doing my work.

I kept on taking a glance inside my room while I'm solving my calculations, making sure that she's okay in there. Mas binilisan ko nga ang ginagawa ko para makapagpahinga na. It's already past 10:00 o'clock in the evening but I'm still facing this stuffs. Nang sa wakas ay matapos na ako, madali kong niligpit ang mga gamit ko at inayos sa ibabaw ng mini-table. I'll just get this tomorrow when I'm going to the University.

"Is your things ready? Are you sure that it's all complete?" she asked when I came out of the room.

Tumango naman ako habang kinusot-kusot ang mga mata ko."Wala man lang good morning? You'd rather care for my works than me? Na-touch naman ako."

"Is this our thing now? Duh. Mukha namang hindi maayos ang tulog mo kaya bakit ko pa sasabihing good morning." She turned her back on me and continued cooking our breakfast.

Naglakad ako papunta sa direksyon niya at dumungaw para tingnan ang niluluto niya. It was just a simple bacon, fried egg, and hotdog. The rice is ready in the table and she's done frying. Marunong na rin akong magluto ng ganito kase nga hinahanda ko ang sarili ko para sa future namin. I said to myself that I'll marry her when I know how to cook.

Soon pa naman. Hindi pa muna sa ngayon.

"Mabuti naman at nakahabol ka pa sa deadline. I thought you're going to have a hard time finishing all of it," Miles sighed in relief.

I throwed my bag on the bench and sat comfortably."Yeah. Its because Zeriel helped me to do it. Kung hindi lang din dahil sa kanya, malamang hindi rin ako makakaabot."

I just finished passing all of my completed works to my subject teachers. Break time namin ng one hour ngayon pero maya-maya lang din ay magsisimula na kami sa pagre-review para sa final exam. The exam is two days from now so we have to prepare for it. Kakaraos ko lang sa mga gawain ko tapos magpupuyat na naman para sa finals.

Ang dami ko yatang utang kay Lord.

"Seriously? Na-late ka na nga sa pagpasa, 'yong babaeng 'yon pa rin ang pinapasalamatan mo? Baka nakakalimutan mong siya rin ang dahilan kung bakit late ka. Wake up, bro!" Miko said irritatingly.

I turned my gaze on him with frowned eyebrows."You don't have to blame her, bro. Ako ang nagpumilit kaya wala siyang kasalanan. No regrets. Swear."

"Oo nga. Alam mo ba, sinisi niya si Zeriel no'ng hinanap ka niya sa room natin. The atmosphere was about to explode and gladly Rynier interfere so they stopped," pagsusumbong pa ni Miles.
