Heal Me, Annie (Heartfelt Series One)-Completed

*Heal SIX*

Early in the morning I take a bath so we can go to the mall. I let the water flow to me freely. I need to be refresh. For almost an hour, I got out from the bathroom.

Naghanap ako ng damit na pwede kong isuot. Nang makakita ko ito, I quickly wear it. I pair it with white rubber shoes that Annie let me wear.

Looking at the mirror, I fix my hair and look for my perfume at the drawer. I spray it all over my body. Glancing once again at the mirror, I am good to go. I was not a mess anymore.

I go outside and close my doors. Gwen is not at the sala probably she's still in her room. I saw one of the helper and ask her.

"Did you see Gwen?"

"Sabi po ni ma'am, nag-aayos lang po siya sir."

"Salamat." Umalis na ito sa harapan ko. Naupo ako sa malambot na upuan. Narinig ko ang tunog ng heels nito pababa. I look upstairs. She's exactly like mom wearing simple dress.

"Did you wait?"

"Okay lang. Let's go."

She throw the keys to me and luckily I catch it. Nakasunod ako dito. I open the door for her and she go inside. I proceed to the drivers seat and put my seatbelt. I let out a heavy sigh. I should relax.

"Kuya, relax ka lang."

"I should."

Sinimulan ko na itong paandarin sa mabagal lang. Ayoko maging reckless.
"Who's going to fetch Annie?"

"She's going directly in our house. After shopping kuya, can you drop me at the office?"

"Of course. So I can see the place."
Our conversation ended and I drive slowly.

"Gwen, hindi ka ba napapagod?"

"I am tired kuya but I should not let tiredness consume me because we have a lot of things to do for our survival."

"If I will be better Gwen, I promise you I'll do my duty as a brother."

"Kuya, ang kailangan mo ay sumunod sa payo ng doktor at sana huwag kang bumitaw sa buhay mo. Your the only family I have."

"I will little princess."

Ngumiti ito sa akin. I continue driving and reach our destination. Going outside the car, I can see people walking and vehicles passing by. Niyaya ako ni Gwen papasok sa mall. The guards check us. Pagkatapos nito pumasok na kami. I saw a lot of shoppers. It's been long since I step my feet here.

Dinala ako ni Gwen sa men's apparel. Hinanapan ako nito ng mga damit at sobrang dami pinasuot sa akin pero tatlo lang ang pinili. Naghanap din ito ng sapatos. From leather shoes to rubber shoes. Dalawa pinili nito. Nagpunta kami sa counter para mabayaran.

After in men's apparel, we go to the salon. She immediately let me go inside. Maghihintay lang daw siya. May lumapit agad sa aking babae. She smiled to me and I just tell her what I need.

"I need haircut."

"Miss Gwen, told us already sir."

Dinala ako nito sa malaking salamin at isang babae din ang lumapit at inayos ang upuan. Naupo ako rito. My hair is quiet long because I don't care about myself for few years.

She begin to do something on my hair. I pick the magazine and read it to take my boredom. Halos isang oras din nila inaayos ang buhok. I look at the mirror and see myself looking differently. May ilang highlights na nakalagay dito.
