Catching The Brightest Star [HS#2]✔

CHAPTER 26

After the class, we immedietly bid our goodbyes to our friends. Since Liam and I cancelled our plans, he chooses to stay with Camille because Riri's class isn't finish yet. And eventually, Camille and Tyron have plans that's why choosing to be with thme is choosing "third-wheeling".

"We should bring foods, and fruits?" He said  he is spoiling my brother too much. Little did he know the fact thay my Bro wants me to stay away from him.

"My Brother isn't sick, may mga stuck 'yon." I said. He nodded, at tumingin lang sa daan. We are going to Kuya's condo today, Kung ako lang ang tatanungin, kaunting porsyento lang ang nag-tutulak sa akin na kausapin at bisitahin siya. The rest, ayaw ko na. I'm sure, kung kami lang dalawa ang mag-uusap, he will tell me the same thing.

Stay away from that Hechanova or you will die. At kahit ilang milyong beses nila akong tanungin kung ano ang pipiliin ko, mas gusto kong makasama si Aster bago ako mamatay. Kaysa naman mabuhay ako nang wala siya. That would be more painful.

"I know, bring him coffee." He said, napatingin ako sa kanya. He seems so fine with him, at halata sa kanyang mukha ang kagustuhan na makita ang aking kuya.

"Would you visit him kahit na hindi inutos ni Mommy na samahan mo ako?" I asked out of nowhere. Sandali siyang tumingin sa akin at agad ding ibinalik ang tingin sa daan.

"Of course, I want to get connected to your family. Each of them plays an important role in your life." He said, I felt amazement when he said that.  "And besides, He looks so great. I think he is a good bro." May maliit na ngiti sa kanyang mga labi nang sabihin iyon. Hindi ko alam pero biglang nawala ang lahat ng emosyon sa aking katawan. Para bang nawalan ako ng gana nang idagdag niya ang mga salita na iyon.

He has expectations, and I never see him like this. If my Brother treat him like shit just because he doesn't want him for me, kaya kong gawin ang lahat para lang ibalik sa kanya ang mga ginawa niya.

"Anyways, Carina. You should stay at his condo para mabantayan ka niya. You'll be alone for how many days. Hindi kita mababantayan." Aniya, agad akong nag-iwas ng tingin. Bakit ba ang dami niyang hinihiling? Marupok ako, okay? Baka bigla ko na lang siyang pag-bigyan.

"I'm fine. I don't need to, kaya ko naman." I said, at tumanaw sa labas. May nakita akong coffee shop kaya naman nagkaroon ako ng tyansa na baguhin ang usapan naming dalawa. "Aster, look! Tara 'don bumili." Pilit ngiting sabi ko. Tumingin siya sa akin at tumango tango. Iginilid niya ang sasakyan. Sabay kaming bumaba, He held my hand and I was stuned. He always make me feel this way, dahil ba crush na crush ko siya?

"Ang daya," bulong ko. Napatingin siya sa akin habang nakakunot ang noo. Hindi ko naman kasi intensyon na sabihin iyon nang malakasan, it just slipped out from my mouth.

"Daya?" He asked. He opened the door for me, at tuluyan na kaming pumasok. Inilapit ko ang mukha sa gilid niya atsaka bumulong.

"Did you just made my heart flutter? Bakit kapag ako, hindi ko magawa?" He laugh, a little. Parehas kaming tumayo sa harap ng counter, at ako mismo ang namili kung anong dadalhin. Syempre, mayroon din kaming dalawa.

"You never know how much your stare always made me flutter." He whispered, hindi ko inaasahan iyon dahil nakatuon lang ang aking pansin sa counter. Agad akong napangiti at tinabig siya.

"What did you just said?" Mapang-asar na sabi ko.

"Please add three of this too." I can't help but to pout when he ignored me. Pero halata naman na nang-aasar na naman siya, napairap ako at tumingin sa cashier. Putok ang blush on, at malagkit siyang nakatingin kay Aster. Kahit ang pag-abot niya ng sukli kay Aster ay may pahaplos pa. Nanlaki ang aking mata at agad na napataas ang kilay.
