Bound To Be Together, Again (Unedited)

Chapter 20

Ayla's POV

Pagkadating namin ng mansyon lumabas agad ako at dumiritso sa likod ng sasakyan.

"Just go and rest, Ayla. I don't want to see you exhausted and sick. Ako na Ang bahala na magdala nito sa kusina." Sagot Niya.

Dahil sa hindi pa ako makahuma sa nangyari kanina sinunod ko Ang kanyang gusto at dali-daling dumiritso sa silid namin ni ante sa annex.

Umupo ako sa kama dahil pakiramdam ko kailangan ko talagang ipahinga ito.

Ang bigat-bigat ng aking nararamdaman.

Nang lumapat Ang aking likod sa higaan parang may humihila sa akin na matulog.

Napakunot-noo ako ng mapansin ko Ang aking sarili sa isang makalumang restaurant at ang sa harap ko ay isang babae na nakatalikod sa akin pero pamilyar Ito at isang lalaki na kausap nito pero hindi malinaw ang kanyang mukha.......

"I'm pleading with you pls. do something to stop our parents from planning to arrange marriage us."

"Ask your dad about that, not me." Malamig na Sabi ng lalaki.

"I can't marry, you. I already love someone else."

"It's not my problem anymore, Amber. It's yours." He said seriously.

"Do you really want to continue with what they are planning just for the sake of the company, Xenon?" Galit na Sabi ng babae.

"For the future of our business, why not? I don't see any problem with it."

"I thought you can help me but I'm wrong you're just a puppet of your parents."

"Watch your words, Amber. You don't know anything." He gritted said.

"Now you're mad. Why? Can't you accept the truth that you are like a puppet? You are doing what your parents want to happen. It's your life, Xenon. You must be the one to decide for yourself not them. Maybe...... Maybe they are our parents but they don't have the right to always dictate what we want to do...... Their role is to only guide us for every decision we've made." The lady said seriously to the man that doesn't have any reaction to what she was talking about.
"You will regret doing this, Xenon. You will regret this." She said with finality and walk out.

I was just watching them the whole time and as the man looked in my direction I stiffened when his face slowly becomes clear.

He is the man......... The man I was bumped earlier.

He walks straight at me and whatever I try to do I can't move from where I standing.

Nanginginig ako sa uri ng kanyang mga tingin.

"Ayla...... Ayla gumising ka."

Hinawakan ko Ang aking dibdib dahil Hindi ako makahinga ng maayos.

"Ayla, Hija......... Anak gumising ka."

Hindi ko Rin mapigilan na mapa-iyak.

Pls. Someone help me.

"I can't let my dad mad at me, Amber. I'm sorry. I want to help you but I can't oppose my dad's decision. I can't be a disappointment to him. His health is more important than anything else and my top priority for now." Sabi Niya sa aking harapan at umalis.

Tumagos siya sa akin na aking ikinagulat.

Nanghihina na ako at napaupo sa sahig.

Itinatambol ko Ang aking dibdib at pinipilit na lumanghap ng hangin.

Ali's POV

I already finished putting all grocery with the help of manong Ben in the kitchen and manang Gregorya is putting those we buy in their place.

Papalabas na Sana ako ng kusina ng biglang pumasok si Dahlia na humihingal.

"Manang Gregorya...... Si Ayla po." Naiiyak na Sabi nito...

"Where is she?" I immediately ask.

"Sa room Po nila ni manang Helen."

I hurriedly go there. When I enter their room I saw Yaya Helen rattling while waking up Ayla. Her is body lightly shaking while her tears are dripping down from her closed eyes and it looks like she can't breathe.

I hurriedly go beside her and hold her hand.

I can't explain my feelings right now. I need to do something to wake her up.

"Ayla.... Ayla wakes up." I said while lightly slapping her face. "Ayla..... Pls. Wake up it's me, Ali." I said.

Si yaya helen umalis sa kanyang tabi Kaya umupo ako sa pinanggalingan Niya at inilagay Ang ulo ni Ayla sa aking mga paa.

"Hey, baby pls. Wake up don't leave me like this." I whispered unconsciously at her.

Pinipigilan kong mapaluha habang nakatingin sa kanya.

Ayla's POV

Mas lalo akong napaiyak ng marinig ko Ang boses ni Ali.

A-ali? Ali pls. Help me.

" Don't be like this, Ayla........ Pls. Stop crying.... I can't bear seeing you like this."

Ali...... Ali..... Pls. Help me get out of her.

Naluluhang Sabi ko sa aking isip.

Ali's POV

"Ayla, if you hear me, pls move any parts of your body." I said trying not to stutter and hold her hand

Oh God pls. help her. I mentally pray.

She holds my hand tightly which makes me look at her and she slowly opens her eyes.

"A-ali." She said and sobbed like a baby.

Bumangon siya at Niyakap ako ng mahigpit.

My hand automatically encircled her back. She lay her head on my chest while sobbing.

I caress her back to make her calm.

"Ayla, anak ano ba ang nangyari sa iyo? Bakit ka nagkakaganoon?" Nag-alalang tanong ni Yaya Helen sa kanya at sumampa sa kabilang side ng Kama.

Ang ibang mga katulong nandito din sa loob at si manong Ben. May pag-alala sa kanilang mukha.

Hindi ko man Lang napansin Ang pagpasok nila kanina sa sobrang pag-alala ko sa kanya

Pagkalipas ng ilang minuto kumalas siya sa aking yakap.

"S-sorry" pahihihingi nito NG tawad habang nakayuko.

"Are you feeling ok now?"

Tumango siya sa akin habang sinusubukan na pigilan ang luha niya.

Pinaharap ko siya sa akin at pinunasan gamit Ang Isa Kong hintuturo ang tumulong isang butil na luha sa kanyang mga Mata.

"You don't need to do any chores, today. Pls. Take some rest." I said to her.

"Young master, maraming salamat sa iyong tulong." Madamdamin na Sabi ni Yaya Helen sa kanya. "Ako na Ang mag-aalaga sa kanya." Dagdag pa nito at may napansin ako sa mga uri ng tingin na ibinigay Niya sa akin.

Tiningnan ko Muna si Ayla na napasandal na ngayon sa headboard ng Kama Niya at bumuntong huminga bago nag-paalam na umalis.
