OPTIONS AND CHOICES (COMPLETED)

CHAPTER 43

Gumalaw ako at naramdaman kaagad ang malambot na kama sa likod ko. I open my eyes and i saw the worried face of my mom.

"My god sweetie! You scared us. How are you? How's your feeling?"

"What happened?"

"You collapsed while you're crying, how are you?" Si Kenzo ang sumagot.

"What time is it?"

"Seven p.m"

"Tumawag na ba ang mga police? Any updates?"

Sabay sabay silang nag singhapan.

"Take a rest ylona. We can handle the investigation. And about that, wala pa silang update but they're doing there best"

"I need to get up"

"Ylona listen. Pagod kana, mag pahinga ka"

"Kuya i need to work! I have so many things to do"

"It's evening. Ako na ang bahala sa opisina at si Kenzo narin ang naka tingin sa embistagasyon"

"You don't understand me kuya" frustrated kong sabi.

"I do understand you ylona. Tauhan ko rin sila. They're under my supervision and me as the COO should be the one handling the case but i chose not to meddle with you because i know you'll freak out"

"Kuya"

"Ylona do not push my button. Hindi ko gusto ang ginagawa mo" umiling si kuya at humalukipkip sa pintuan.

"Dad" i called. Tumikhim muna siya bago tumango.

"I will let you do what ever you want but you need to rest tonight"

"Daddy, i told you ako nalang ang sa kaso" pag protesta ni Daddy.

"Yakiro" Dad warned him.

Kenzo held my hand, i held him back.

"Fine. Pero hindi ako tutunganga lang kapag umiyak ulit siya Daddy. You know what i mean"

It's about my depression. I know he's afraid that i might go back to that situation.

"She can handle herself this time pipes. And she'll ask for help if she can't handle it anymore" Gyro Beer asured my brother.

"I'll take care of her" si Kenzo.

I didn't inform my family about me and Kenzo but now that he's here holding my hand I'm sure they knew.

Gusto kong mag tago sa unan ng tingnan ni Daddy ang kamay namin bago niya ako pinag taasan ng kilay.

"Masasapak na kita Lorenzo" banta ni Kuya.

"Calm down dude. I already explain my side and i know it's stupid but this time i won't let her be alone" ngumiwi si Kenzo kay kuya.

"Siguraduhin mo lang Lorenzo sinasabi ko sayo"

"Kuya! Don't scare him!"

"Takot ka pala?" He said mockingly

Kenzo looked at me like i said something very bad. But he sighed and rolled his eyes on me.

"You wish" tamad niyang sagot.

Sa condo naako ni Kenzo nag pahinga dahil sa pagiging iritado ni kuya.

"Iyong engines daw ang pwedeng sumabog, baka daw nag over heat"

"Hindi iyon mag o-over heat ilang beses ko bang sasabihin sayo, that was new! All new!"

"Easy. Sila naman ang may sabi, hindi ako nakikialam sa embistagasyon"
