Handshake

Chapter 38

"Miyeon is.." Sehun promised himself that it's a thing that should be kept until the day he die but Krystal heard them and there's no way to lie about it. "She's dad's daughter."

Biglang nagbago ang ekspresyon ng mukha ni Krystal. Tumingin siya kay Miyeon at sunod na tumingin kay Sehun. "You mean, she's your sister?" Hindi na sumagot si Sehun.

Pilit na ipinasok ni Krystal ang sinabi ni Sehun pero hindi at dahil doon, nakaramdam siya ng pagkahilo. Nakahawak pa siya ni Miyeon pero makailang segundo pa'y tuluyan ng dumilim ang paningin niya.

Buti nalang, mabilis na nakatakbo si Sehun at nasalo si Krystal bago pa man ito bumagsak sa sahig. He lifted her up and lie down on the sofa.

"Is she okay?" nauutal pang tanong ni Miyeon.

"She's fine." Sehun was obviously worried. Ibinalik niya ang tingin kay Miyeon. "This is your fault. If you wasn't here, hindi niya malalaman."

Tanging paghinga nalang na malalim ang naging tugon ni Miyeon. Alam niya na kahit anong sabihin niya, siya at siya pa din ang mali pagdating kay Sehun. Hindi niya ginusto na mawalan ng malay ang doctor, hindi din naman niya gustong malaman din nito ang tungkol sa pagiging anak sa labas ni Mr. Oh.

Makalipas ang halos kalahating oras, nagkamalay na si Krystal. Miyeon immediately gave her a bottled water.

"Where's Sehun?" she asked while looking around.

"He left without telling me where will he go." Miyeon bit her lips. "I'm sorry, for what happened to you. It's my fault."

"No, no!" Krystal shook her head. "It's not your fault. It's just that, I don't feel good this past few days and to tell you the truth, it was really shocking. How did it happened?"

Bumalik si Miyeon sa hospital bed. Saka lamang napansin ni Krystal na suot na muli ng babae ang sariling damit. "I'm not in the position to tell you everything." She did smile at her. "My manager was just taking care of my discharge."

Dumating si Sehun kasama ang manager ni Miyeon. Magkasama nilang inihatid ang dalawa hanggang sa parking area. Nanatiling tahimik si Krystal. Hindi pa din niya maiwasang hindi magpalipa't lipat ng tingin kay Sehun at Miyeon.

When the van left, Sehun asked Krystal to come with him at his office. "Do you feel fine now?" he asked after she finished drinking the tea he made.

"I don't want to get involve but how did Miyeon became your sister when she looks older than Renjun?" she directly asked. "Did your father had an affair?"

"I don't know if it was an affair or a mistake that he didn't know happened.."

Sehun sat down beside Krystal. Wala siyang balak na sabihin ang tungkol kay Miyeon kahit kanino man dahil natatakot siya na baka malaman ito ng mga kapatid niya, and he doesn't want them to get mad or feel betrayed.

"I found out about her months after my mother died..."

Binalikan ni Sehun ang araw na una niyang nakita ang ama kasama si Miyeon. Dahil nalaman na din ni Krystal, sinabi na niya ang lahat lahat.

It was Yeri's birthday and as the oldest, Sehun wanted to buy a cake for her. Though they were born with a golden spoon, Sehun always wanted to live his life like a normal boy, so everyday, he always ride bus whenever going to school or going home.

So after school, naisip niyang bilhan si Yeri ng cake. There was a cakeshop nearby the bus stop at lagi niya itong nadaanan sa tuwing umuuwi siya. He was so very excited dahil alam niyang naghihintay na din ang mga kapatid niya sa bahay.
