Calming The Storms

~CHAPTER 16~

ZHYRA LAVINE SMITH

"Hey!" I greeted Jamira.

"Iniintay ka niya sa canteen kanina. Hindi siya kumain pero di ko tinatanong. Sana sinabihan mo siya na di ka makakapunta." I started feeling hurt. I don't deserve her.

"Nandoon siya nag-iintay ng sasakyan pauwi. Puntahan mo siya." I smile at Jamira and thank her.

"Don't worry I'll explain everything on her."

When I run to Hazel I don't feel I'm tired anymore. She's my comfort after all.

"Thankfully I found you Ms. Ferrer." I said smiling widely.

But even she's grumpy she's still cute.

"Why are you calling me Ms. Ferrer? Just  call me Hazel or Azel and how should I call you I don't know your freaking name!" She said loudly that made my heart happy.

"Cute." that's all I replied to her.

Having her annoyance now will made my heart flutter.

"Zhyra Lavine Smith my name." I saw how her eyes shine after hearing my name.

Thank you for saying I shouldn't call you Ms. Ferrer. Pwede ko na ba ikaw tawagin na love? Charot.

After months I get to know her. The things she likes, she doesn't likes everything even a little things I always memorize it.

I'm now in the mall with Rainsey, and we are going to pick a gift for Azel birthday.

"Ate how about a toy?" Rainsey suggested with a wide look.

"Aysus ikaw lang may gusto niyan." She laugh and put back the toys.

"Why did you put it back? Kunin mo at ibibili ko sayo." She smile widely after hearing it.

"I love you Ate Zhy! You're the best sister!"

We go to a restaurant and my phone rang.

"Hello Ate Syd!" I greet Ate Sydney with a wide smile.

"Ate Sydney! I misssh you." Rainsey said with a flying kiss.

"Are you on a date?" She asked with curiosity.

"I'm just buying gift for Hazel Ate Syd." I told her because I can trust her.

"My sister is picking up a gift? Just pick with a heart, also introduce her to me."

Ate Sydney is such a mysterious person, she will be a Doctor soon like my Mom.

Even she's cold, she still love me and Rainsey.

At the end I pick a promise ring with the design of the moon. She shine brightly in my eyes. The way she speak, the way she walk, the way she listen on me. I just love everything on her.

A week before Azel birthday, I plan to surprise Jamira to tell her what we will do.

"Why do you visit me? At secret pa ha." She laugh like a crazy woman.

Bakit siya naging kaibigan ni Azel?

"Plano ko isurprise si Azel sa kaarawan niya." Ang hirap pala magtagalog.

"So what's the plan?" She asked me.

I tell her how we will do it and I'm happy she is not against that.

"Thank you for coming on her life." I saw how her eyes smile like her lips.

"You said to me before after you hurt yourself that I should be on her side even you go far away."
