Chasing sunsets

Chapter 9- Leave again

JEMA

Tahimik lang akong humikibi habang tinitigan si Ella na natutulog sa gilid ko

How can I promise not to hurt you again, when I'm leaving

And it hits different kase you'll never see me, again

I'm sorry for causing you a lot of trouble, my eternal sunshine

"Hayaan mo, babawi nalang ako sayo sa natitira kong dalawang buwan." I whispered

2 months left, and I'll leave her again

Iiwanan ko na sila

Umaga na nang magising ako

I saw her face lit up

"Love! Are you okay? masakit pa ba yung ulo mo?, You want water? Pain reliever?" Sunod sunod na tanong niya

I chuckled and held her hand

"I'm fine, my love. Ang galing kaya ng nurse ko" I replied

Niyakap niya naman ako

"Thank you, love" I softly said

"I'm glad you're okay... Sa susunod na araw ka pa makaka labas love, And you'll be free here" She replied

Tumango naman ako

We heard a knock from the door

"You locked the door?" I asked

"It's for your safety my love" sagot niya

When she opened the door, Ate Jia and JV came in

Anong ginagawa ni JV dito?

"Oh my, I'm glad gising ka na!" Ate Jia said

"Oh, Ella pwede paki lagay neto sa ref" Rinig kong utos ni JV kay Ella

Kawawa naman si Love!

Lumapit naman si JV sakin

"Alam mo bang nag aalala ako sayo kahapon?"sambit niya

"I'm sorry vic, pero don't worry I'm okay naman na" sagot ko

Tumango naman siya

I looked at Ella and she's sitting on the sofa

i felt JV's hand on mine kaya napa tingin ako

"Do you want something?" He asked

Umiiling naman ako

Ella didn't look at here

Nasasaktan din naman siya

Kumawala ako mula sa kamay ni JV

Nagtataka naman si JV

"Please, I'm tired" Sambit ko

I turned around and tried to close my eyes

Ate Jia left, may asikasuhin pa daw siya sa management

Nagising ako dahil sa boses ni JV

"Simple lang trabaho mo hindi mo pa magawa" Singhal niya

I looked at him, He's scolding ella

Ano bang ginagawa niya?

"S-sorry po" Sambit ni Ella

Sumakit bigla ang ulo ko

"Umalis ka nga! wala kang kwenta eh" rinig kong sabi ni JV

No, Ella

Nagising ulit ako, and I saw JV sleeping

I looked around and I didn't see Ella

Oh no, where is she?

Napa daing ako nang maramdaman kong sumasakit nanaman ang ulo ko

Taena, sumasakit pa talaga!

ELLA

"May saltik ata sa ulo yung JV na yun! biglang nagagalit sayo" Sambit ni Alyssa

Nag buntong hininga nalang ako

"Baliw na ba yang si JV?Pinapagalitan ka eh wala ka namang kasalanan. Tsaka kasalanan niya yun kung bat siya natapunan ng tubig, tanga siya humawak" sabi naman ni MG

Napa tawa naman ako

"Alam mo Ells, Maging prangka ka kaya sakanya?"Sabi ni Ly

"Ay nako, eto mag pa prangka? sobrang bait nga neto eh. Kahit yan hindi niya magagawa" Sabi naman ni MG

Ayoko lang talaga ng gulo

"Masyado ka na talagang mabait besh, Kahit inaabuso na kabaitan mo hindi ka talaga papatol no?" sabi ni Ly

"Oo nga. Pwedeng maging demonya ka kahit 50% lang ells? Bangasan mo mukha nung JV. Di naman yun marunong mag acting, pangit pa ng mukha" natawa ako sa sinabi ni MG

"Masyado naman kayong harsh uy" Sagot ko sakanila

"Ayan! Kaya na aabuso kabaitan mo. Wala namang masama if maging ganun ka, kailangan din yun eh" Alyssa said

Napa tango nalang ako sakanila

I received a call from Jema

I turned off my phone and drank jy coffee

"kanina pa yun tawag ng tawag sayo, Baka inaalala ka nun" sambit ni MG

"she's fine, andun naman si JV eh."sagot ko

"Ano, hahayaan mo lang si JV? Go get your girl back Ells! Ano ba yan walang duwag sa magkakaibigan natin huy" Alyssa said

Napa tingin naman kami ni MG sakanya

"Ah talaga? kaya pala hanggang ngayon kinikimkim mo yung nararamdaman mo para kay Denden, Ayun Kasal na tuloy siya pero dika pa din naka amin" sagot ko

"Ohh, Ella-1 Aly-0" MG said

Napa tawa naman kami, while Alyssa rolled her eyes on us

Umuwi na muna ako ng condo
