Demon's Hide.

Chapter 82

Reality.

I slowly opened my eyes and I quickly turned around to see if he was still here but I couldn't even see his shadow, my lips parted as I remember what happend to us earlier, panaginip lang ba talaga iyon? I shook my head and covered my face using my palm.

Hindi siya.... he's not just a dream....right? He's here....baka nasa ibaba lang siya? Pinunasan ko ang luha ko at bumangon sa kama, I ran to my restroom to see if he was there but he wasn't, feeling frustrated to myself I ran my finger through my hair and gasped.

You're right, narrah! He's gone! He's just a dream! A dream! That's all! Just a dream...

"Panaginip lang....panaginip"Mapait akong tumawa at di binigyan pansin ang luhang tumulo sa mga mata, paano naging panaginip iyon? Ang lahat sa kanya ay parang totoo! Hindi iyon maaring hindi maging totoo!

His food...he cooked for me! Siguro ay may roon mga bakas sa kusina na nagluto siya sa amin at di siya panaginip. I gulped and immediately walk down the stairs, I got there and out of breath. Nakaayon lahat sa pwesto, tila wala pa pumupunta dito kahit sina zion.

I sob and shook my head repeatedly, I'm looking for evidence that he's not a dream but I can't find even a small evidence!! Napalunok ako ng maraming beses at sinabunutan ang sarili dahil sa inis na nararamdaman, I fall from the ground weakly.

Hindi maaring isa lang siyang panaginip! Ang mga halik niya ang nagpapatunay na hindi siya panaginip pero bakit....? Why? I took a deep breath and stand up shaking, maybe I need to find more?

Sinimulan kong maghanap ulit, halos binagyo ang kusina nang matapos ako, I weakly looked at the mess I made while tears continue falling from my eyes, wala akong nakita kahit ni isa na nagpapatunay na nagluto si dairon, lahat ay maayos, yung ginamit niyang kasangkapan sa pagluluto ay tila di man lang ginalaw, wala kahit anong patunay na nagluto siya para sa akin, wala....wala kahit isa...

Napahikbi ako at tinakpan ang mukha gamit ang dalawang palad. "Dairon....h-hindi..."Habol ko ang aking hininga habang lumalakas ang bawat hikbi na pinapakawalan.

I catch my breath unable to stop every whimper that comes out of my mouth. Pero....pero panaginip lang siya....wala na siya....he left me so fast again....

Nanghihina na napaupo ako parang wala na akong lakas na tumayo, hindi ko mapigilan ang mga luha. My heart seems to be crushed little by little as if I can't breathe because of this pain. Napapikit ako ng mariin sa sobrang frustrated ko sa sarili ko, I shouldn't sleep! Hindi ko dapat ipinikit ang mga mata ko nung nandito pa siya!

Sana ngayon ay kasama ko pa siya!! Gusto ko pa siyang makita ulit!! Gusto ko pa siyang makasama....gusto ko pa siyang mayakap ulit....gusto kong marinig ang boses niya....why he didn't stay?

"Narrah!"Narinig ko ang boses ni vernon. I didn't look at him, I want to stop myself crying but I can't help it, sumisikip ang aking dibdib at hindi ko kayang itago ang mga luha.

"S-si dairon..."I stammered and couldn't stop sobbing as I look at him. He looked at me dumbfounded.

"W-what?"

"S-si....s-si....dairon.... he's here....he cooked for me!"I utterred with shaking voice, he sighed deeply, mabilis niya akong inalalayan na tumayo at magingat ang hawak sa kamay ko.

"Are you fine? Why you crying?"He worriedly asked me as he help me sit down to the sofa, I look at him with tears in my eyes, I want to calm down but I can't make myself stop sobbing.
