My Mystery Girl

Chapter 39

KRISTEN'S POV

He's asleep now. I can't believe he was able to sleep in this cold dark place. I looked down to see his face, he was resting his head on my lap. I allowed him to do so kasi nahihirapan syang matulog ng nakaupo and I'm a bit guilty that I made him cry. I made him remember the past that he wanted to forget but wasn't able to. Yeah, he really did cry while telling me how his dad died in an accident and he was blaming himself for years now.

They had a beach outing that time daw. He was so playful and so confident that he could swim so pumunta sya sa malalim na parte ng dagat. Everything was going fine nang bigla syang pinulikat. He was crying, asking for help. His dad came to save him, they were holding hands pero may dumating na malakas at malaking alon at napabitaw sila sa isa't isa. The next thing Zac knew, he was lying on his bed sa hotel room with his Ate Zhy, she was crying. Nawawala daw sa dagat ang daddy nila. Lumabas sila ng hotel room para bumalik sa dalampasigan. Their mom was standing along the shores with their other relatives nang dumating mula sa dagat ang rescue team ng coast guard. Buhat buhat nila ang wala nang buhay na katawan ni Mr. Xavier Jung, daddy ni Zac.

Hindi man daw sya nakarinig ng kahit konting paninisi mula sa mga kapamilya nya, he still felt guilty with what happened and until now dinadala pa din nya ang guilt na yun sa puso nya.

Nakatitig pa din ako sa kanya until now, and I still can see the traces of tears on his cheeks. Who would've guessed that this bubbly, funny guy has been carrying that kind of burden on his heart.

I've made up my mind, I have to help him, I need to help him, but how?

STAN'S POV

Wazzup guys! Sa wakas, after 10000000+ years, pinagbigyan ako ng tamad na author magkwento ng POV ko.

Ako nga pala si Stanley Ryu Park, Stan as you all know. Hindi ko na sasabihing ako ang pinakagwapong member ng grupo namin, alam kong binging bingi na kayo sa mga kagrupo ko. Just check out my photo na ipopost ng author, and then you judge by yourself. Bale bukod sa kgwapuhan na hindi ko naman talaga masyadong ipinagyayabang, obvious lang talaga, ako din ang pinakamatangkad sa grupo, pinakalapitin din ng mga babae. Well hindi ko na kasalanan yun.

Bale kasama ko ngayon dito sa gubat si Kloe. She was too engrossed with this game. Parang yung mapa na lang ang kinakausap nya eh.

"Based on this map, we'll see this particular tree na tinatawag na Philippine cherry blossom, the one with yellow flowers daw, kapag malapit na tayo sa rest house." Kloe.

"Sana hindi na natin makita yung puno." bulong ko. Kasi naman ngayon ko lang sya nakasama nang solo, hindi pa nya ako masyado pinapansin.

Inagaw ko sa kanya from behind yung mapa.

"What do you think you are doing?" reklamo ni Kloe habang pinipilit nyang bawiin ang mapa mula sakin.

Tumakbo ako palayo sa kanya, hinabol naman nya ako.

"Hey Mr. Park! Give that back to me."

"Get it, if you can."

I dare her sabay taas ko ng mapa above my head. Tumatalon talon sya habang pinipilit itong agawin sa akin.

Sa pagaagawan namin, napasandal ako sa isang puno. Small yellow petals fell down from that tree. She raised her head up, her face lighten up as she smiles. I think I just saw the prettiest girl in the world as I look at her face.

Nagkatinginan kami, hindi pa din nabubura ang ngiti sa labi nya. I leaned down a bit so my lips will be able to meet with hers. She slowly closes her eyes, we're about to seal it when....

"Oh my gee!" she blurted out.

"What?!" me on my pissed voice. Malapit na eh, badtrip naman oh. Ano naman kayang naalala nito.
