THE ADVENTURE OF AUGUST BACK TO EARTH

51. No Tears Left to Cry

August's POV

I cried a lot hanggang sa naubusan na ata ako ng luha dahil wala na akong maiiyak na luha. Hindi ko rin alam na nakakapagod din pala ang umiyak. I was crying my heart out and I feel like my strength was drawn out from me. I feel like I was too exhausted and still the pain did not go away. I already experience this type of feeling before pero bakit mas matindi ngayon? I thought yun na ang pinakamasakit, pero bakit pakiramdam ko ngayon ay di ko siya kakayanin. Pakiramdam ko anytime, guguho na lang ako.

Naligo na lang ako at pagkatapos nun ay humiga. I don't feel like eating. I don't feel like going out. Pakiramdam ko ay pagod akong magsalita at mag-isip. I wanted to rest. I wanted to forget this awful feeling I am feeling right now.

I wonder how people can manage to fall asleep with a broken heart. Kasi tuwing pipikit ako mas lalong nagiging malinaw sa aking ala-ala ang mga nangyare kanina. I can hear knocks on my door but I don't have a plan on opening it. Wala ako sa mood para kumausap ng kahit na sino.

I forced myself to sleep even my heart was strained and aching. I hope when I woke up, this feeling is already gone.

Misha's POV

"Hoy, anong nangyare? Nagkukulong si August sa kwarto niya." Tanong ko kay Lucas. Nasa living room kami ngayon nag-uusap. Wala akong ideya kung ano ang nangyare. Nagulat na lang ako ng katukin ko si August sa kuwarto niya ay di ito sumasagot at di ito lumalabas.

"I don't have any idea babe..." sagot naman ni Lucas and he shrugged.

Napasimangot naman ako rito. "Wala ka talagang kuwenta." Inis na saad ko rito at biglang nakita ko naman si Augusta na parang praning na naglalakad at nakakunot noo. "Augusta!" Tawag ko rito at napalingon naman ito sa amin.

Agad naman itong lumapit na parang di mapakali. "Misha..." saad nito and her voice is helpless.

Nagtaka naman ako rito pati na rin si Lucas na nagtatakang napatingin rito.

"Something wrong?" Tanong ni Lucas kay Augusta.

"It's about August.." saad nito at halata rito na hindi ito mapakali. "She was hu—"

"Oh hi! Augusta right?" Napatingin naman kami bigla sa pinangalingan ng boses mula sa pintuan.

Our eyes directed to a woman wearing a red dress and she looks beautiful walang halong biro. She looks so regal somehow.

"Ahm... yeah, Dani." Sagot naman ni Augusta na mukhang kilala ito.

Ngumiti naman ito at pumasok dito sa living room and she's raking her eyes towards us. "I was just touring the palace. I'm glad that I saw your friends here... by the way my name is Chelsey Rae Daniella but you can call me Dani, nice to meet you." Pakilala nito sa amin at tumabi ito kay Augusta. She's too beautiful, but somehow August is a bit ahead of her. August is beautiful without wearing make up and she's already on par with this woman who has a light make up. I am not being bias, I am just telling the truth.

"My name is Misha, and this is Lucas.... my boyfriend..." pakilala ko naman rito at pinakilala ko rin si Lucas na nakatiim bagang ito at nakakunot noong nakatingin kay Dani.

"Wow, a couple just like us. But by the way I will not take so much of your time, I still have to tour around. By the way it was nice seeing you all. Bye!" Paalam nito sa amin at umalis na ito sa living room na parang walang nangyare.

"Who was that girl?" Nagtatakang tanong ko kay Augusta after I was able to recover from that huge surprise. It's not everyday that someone will approach you in the palace to tour around. Si Lucas naman ay hindi nagsasalita. Parang malalim ang iniisip nito.
