Beyond the Unplanned Love

Chapter 53: Gone

Alex’s POV

Flashback

 "I heard you're going to the States on?"

"On Friday. I'll be spending some time with mommy and daddy. Alam mo na, clingy si Mommy. Matagal nita na akong gustong papuntahin dun. And you know, I think this is the best time."

"2 days nalang pala. Hanggang kelan ka naman dun?" He asked while holding his pocket.

 "Indefinite. Kapag kaya ko ng makipagsabayan sa kanila."

"Sino ba nagsabing makipagsabayan ka?" si Jeric

"Kung kaya nilang maging masaya, well atleast I should have to."

"Kaya mo naman magi g masaya dito ah. Nandito ako, nandito kami."

"Well, I thought of that too. I tried to be happy, but I guess, I'm not really good in pretending"

"Bakit ka ba nandito? Nanggulo ka pa. Kita ng nagaayos ako ng gamit eh." I added.

"Gusto ko lang kasing ibilin na size 10 yung paa ko, then Medium yung damit ko. Para kita yung pagflex ko ng muscles."

 "Bumabalik ata si Yolanda. Kumapit ka, ang lakas ng hangin!!!!" I joked.

 He laughed and got one of my bag, "Baka kelangan mo ng boy eh. Kaya nagaapply ako." He said laughing.

"Ha-ha. Ewan ko sayo," I ignored him and went back packing my things.

 "Favor, pakuha naman yung box dun sa may banyo." I said while pointing the way to the CR.

"Okay. Oops." He stopped, "Baka mainlove ka sa muscles ko pag nagbuhat ako."

 I threw him my pillow. "Wala akong balak tignan yan. Dont worry."

 After 2 minutes.

"Thanks." I politely greeted him.

"Alam na ba ni Kiefer?" He asked.

"Pakiabot naman yang shampoo sa tabi mo."

Then I stood up and walked towards the drawer.

"Uy, alam na ba ni Kiefer? Wala ka bang balak ipaalam sa kanya?" He constantly asked.

"What for?" I stared blankly at the drawer. "Ayoko na umasa na kakatok siya dyan sa pintuan at magmamakaawa sakin. Sawa na akong umasa."

"What if may chance talaga?" si Jeric

I walked towards my luggage and sat down, he sat down on the floor with me helping me to pack my things.

"Kamusta na pala si Denise?" I asked changing the topic.

 "Okay na naman siya. Medyo masigla na pero kelangan pa imonitor kasi bumababa yung platelets niya." Si Fort.

"Hindi mo ba siya dadalawin?"

 "I guess it's not a good choice. " I continued packing my things. Although konti na lang naman siya, I don't know why it's getting hard for me to packed these.

"She misses you. She missed everything about you. Kahit hindi niya sabihin sakin pero nararamdaman ko. She keeps on looking at her phone asking if you called."

"Mahal ka ni Denise, Alex. Mahal ako ni Denise. Mahal ka ni Kiefer. That's it. Yun yung totoo, alam ko ang dami nating pinagdudahan noon. Kesha ganito, kesha ganoon. Pero wake up Alex. Hindi yun totoo, eto ang totoo." He added

 "Really Jeric? Really?" I stopped arranging my clothes.

"Ganun lang ba kadali sayo na itapon lahat kung ano yung nangyari dati? Ganun na lang ba kadali para kalimutan yung mga nakita natin? Kung sayo oo, sakin hindi. I'm sorry. Hindi ganun kadaling magmukhang tanga kakaantay na magtext sakin si Kiefer. Hindi ganun kadaling magantay sa wala at magmukhang tanga kapag may date kami. Hindi ganun kadaling kalimutan na kapag kelangan ko ng masasandalan nawawala siya. Hindi ganun kadaling ipaintindi aakin na wala lang lahat yun. Hindi ganun kadaling kalimutan na mas madalas pang piliin si Denise kesa sakin. Kaya I'm sorry Jeric kung hindi ko pa siya kayang puntahan."
