See you, Violet [Color Series #1]

Twenty-One

Warning: This chapter contains Harm and Violence

My heart was so full tonight. Even when I took a bath and soaked my self in the bath for almost an hour. My heart still keeps on beating fast and doesn't calm even for a second!

'Mahal kita.'

I touched my face when I recall what Ryke said to me. Is this my first time hearing those words? I heard it a hundred times to my previous relationship but hearing those words coming from the man that I adore and like for a very long time is a different feeling!

I giggled while reading his text before I sleep.

From: Baby

Good night. Sweet dreams, my love.

I cover my self with blanket and pillow then scream my heart out. I slept that night peacefully.

I'm still smiling like an idiot while having a breakfast with my family.

"Your smile creeps me out." Beige suddenly told me.

Humarap ako sakanya pagkatapos uminom ng tubig.

"I'm in a good mood right now so I'll let that pass but say that to me again and I will add another black eye on your face."

He smirk at me, medyo namamaga pa 'rin ang mukha niya at kita pa 'rin ang pasa sa mata niya pero mukang okay nanaman siya ang hindi ko lang sigurado ay ang magiging lagay niya sa desisyon ni Daddy dahil sa mga kalokohan niya.

The days came by smoothly. I was starting to get busy with studies as well as Ryke, nagkikita naman kami minsan for lunch or dinner. He always make sure that we have time for each other.

And I have this realization that I'm ready to tell my family about us.

"Are you sure?" Andi sounds excited when I told her that I'm ready to tell my family about my relationship with Ryke.

"Very." I smiled at her. "There's no reason naman na why I would not tell my parents about us. I'm happy."

I stopped walking when a girl bumped me. The thing that she was holding scattered on the floor.

"I'm sorry." She said. I bend on one knee to help her.

"It's okay." I said while picking up her things on the floor. Andi help her too.

My hand stop when I saw a white string. I pick it up and look at it. Blurry scenarios flashes through my mind.

'Wag kang gagalaw kung ayaw mong masaktan.'

'Tangina bakit ka umiiyak?!'

'Kapag hindi ka tumigil isasabit ko kayong dalawa sa kisame.'

Nabitawan ko ang hawak ko at napakurap. I touch my chest and feel the beating of my heart. It was fast, kinabahan ako.

What was that?

"Bella! Hindi ka nagiingat nakabangga ka nanaman!"

Napatayo kami ng may lumapit na babae sa nakabangga sa'kin. They both said sorry again and left.

I was zoning out. Still thinking what was the scene I saw. Mabilis pa 'rin ang tibok ng puso ko at kinakabahan.

"Are you alright?" Andi worriedly ask, touching my shoulder to get my attention.
