Collide With You (Hermosa Series #1)

"What!"

Sigaw ni Cathy at bigla nalang nagtinginan ang mga tao na nasa paligid namin. Hinawakan ko ang kamay niya at tumakbo kami papalayo dahil hindi ko kayang panindigan yung kahihiyan na ginawa ni Catherine.

"Nakakahiya ka naman! Baka nakakalimutan mo nasa mall tayo." We stopped to catch our breath "Kailangan mo ba talaga sumigaw?"

"Oo! Grabe, you're saying na may something si Blaze at Angel? What the actual fuck?" Cathy replied.

"I'm not sure if it's true but I just have this feeling,"

"What feeling?

"I feel like... I'm not the girl inside his heart anymore."

Cathy suddenly hugged me, I took a step back and almost lose my balance.

"Don't ever say that," She caressed my back "But if it's true, sabihan mo si Blaze na magtago-tago na siya dahil pitong kamao ang sasalubong sakanya."

I smiled at what she said, but this isn’t enough to cheer me up. I'm starting to lose myself in this relationship, I don't know if it's healthy anymore.

"Look at you, your a mess!" Hinawakan ni Cathy ang dalawang balikat ko at tinignan ako simula sa ulo hanggang paa.

"I'm fine," I replied and started walking.

"Are you sure? You look pale, Mira. Parang hindi mo inaalagaan ang sarili mo."

It's true, hindi ko na masyadong naasikaso ang sarili ko sa kakaisip. Nawawalan na ako ng gana sa lahat ng bagay, ni hindi na nga ako masyadong kumakain. Hindi ko na alam kung anong nangyayari sa sarili ko.

"I'm fine, really. I just don't feel like myself these days." I let out a long sigh and we started walking towards the exit.

"Hey, your health is more important than anything else. You need to rest, Mira."

"What do you think I'm doing?" I asked sarcastically.

"Tanga, what I meant is you also need to rest your mind and heart. Have inner peace in your life, you know. Don't burden yourself too much." Cathy advised.

I sighed and we entered her hotel. I’ve been staying at Cathy’s for a week now, alam ko kasing pupuntahan ako ni Blaze sa bahay sa ayaw at sa gusto ko, at saka ayokong malaman nila mommy yung nangyari. But to be honest, I've never been like this. Ngayon lang ako naging ganito, I feel lost and anxious about everything.

Pagkapasok namin sa hotel room ni Cathy, agad akong dumeretcho sa kusina para ayusin ang mga sangkap na kailangan namin. Dumating si Cathy at nagsimulang hiwain ang manok na nabili naming.

"Asan na si Rain? Ang tagal niya naman."

"Ewan ko don, sabi niya kanina nasa MRT na siya."

I decided to fix the table habang nagluluto si Cathy sa kusina. Habang pinupunasan ko ang mga basang plato, bigla nalang lumabo ang paningin ko at nakaramdam ng sakit ng ulo. Nabitawan ko ang hawak kong plato at humawak ako sa upuan para alalayan ang sarili ko.

“What happened here!” Biglang lumapit sa’kin si Cathy “Are you okay?”

“Yeah," I said at kumapit kay Cathy Medyo nahilo lang.”

“Meron ka ba ngayon?” She asked at kumuha ng unan sa kwarto niya.

“Oo, pangalawang araw ko ‘ata ngayon?”
