Althea's POV
We are on our way sa terminal ng bus papunta sa hometown nina Jade. Ihatid ko muna siya then diretso na ako papunta sa terminal ko. Gabi na rin kasi kaya i want to make sure na makasakay muna si Jade bago ako umalis. Kung same way nga lang ang hometowns namin sasabayan at ihahatid ko siya sa mismong bahay nila kaso opposite direction e. Kaya hanggang terminal na muna ang paghatid ko.
Medyo mabigat sa loob ko na magkakalayo kami ng one month. Pero ok na rin yun kasi Jade agreed na hindi na lumipat ng borading house. Yes! Effective ang plano ko. At pagbalik namin for second sem we will spend more and more and more time together.
"O sige na sakay ka na. Please take care. God bless sa trip mo and update mo ako from time to time. Ok?" Sabi ko kay Jade.
"Yes po. Daig mo pa mga magulang ko sa mga bilin mo e. Mag-ingat ka rin. Ikaw tong masmahaba ang byahe ikaw pa tong naghatid sa skin dito sa terminal. Im okay now so go. Habulin mo na ung bus mo at baka maiwan ka pa. Sige na. *hug*" Jade said and then hugged me tight. I hugged her back, tightly. We just held each other for almost a minute and was forced to let go when one of the passengers excused himself to pass.
"Pano, i have to go. God bless sa trip nating dalawa." Ako kay Jade. Then i left to catch my own ride to my hometown.
The whole trip i was regularly checking on Jade. I would text her from time to time just to make sure she's okay. Yeah i know she's used to taking long drives like this, but i know that she's not used to taking public transportation. Her parents were supposed to fetch her but she decided to surprise them and go home alone. My trip is longer than Jade's and when she called me to inform that she's home na, dun lang ako napalagay sa biyahe ko at nakatulog. Medyo oa nga ako sa pagaalala. But can you blame me? Grabe kaya ung mga nasa news lately.
Jade's POV
So i finally got home. Medyo matagal ung trip at nakakapagod but i know Althea's travel time is twice longer. Kahit almost same time ung trip namin kalahati pa lang siya ng trip niya. She checks on me time to time. Medyo oa nga e, but then sweet rin naman. I can really feel her concern for me.
Umaga na ng nagtext sakin si Althea na nakauwi na rin siya. Buti naman because im starting to worry. Most of that day was spent on sleeping. We were both tired from our long trip and sa pagwoworry sa isa't-isa. Kaya naman hindi rin kami masyadong nakapagusap or nagkatext. Dagdag na rin siguro ung excitement ng family namin samin. Hay i missed home. But im missing Althea.
Althea's POV
Grabe ung haba ng tulog ko napagod ata talaga ako. Hindi ko na rin masyadong nakausap si Jade. Hindi rin naman siya nagtext so i guess she's also resting or busy with her family.
The next day, i decided na simulan ng maganda ang araw ko. Nagising ako around 6:00am
*ring ring*
Calling Jade..
"Hello Jade. Good morning. I miss you na!" Halos pasigaw kong sabi nung may sumagot na sa kabilang linya.
"Hi. *yawn* aga mo naman nagising. Antok pa ako. Can we please sleep pa? Konti pa." Hay. Ang sexy talaga ng bagong gising na boses ni Jade, nasabi ko sa sarili ko. I can imagine her bagong gising look. How fresh and angelic she looks pagbagong gising.
"Hehe sorry. Sige na sleep ka pa. When you finally wake up please call me ok? Ill be waiting Jade." Un na lang ang nsabi ko then i hang up.
Gising na gising na ang diwa ko but i decided to stay in bed day dreaming about Jade. I played our memories on my head over and over. At sa bawat replay nangingiti parin ako. Nababaliw na ata ako. Grabe na to.
