Semua Bab Wide Awake: Bab 51 - Bab 60

 Race's POV "Oh my gosh! Marunong ka pala magsalita! It just wow!" Said Zena as she chuckled. Nandito kami ngayon sa Jollybabe at kasalukuyang kumakain. Hindi ko alam pero hindi ko pa maumpisahang galawin 'yong pagkain ko. I was just busy looking at Zena and that child named Silly. She was just five years old. Honestly, naaawa ako sa kanya. Though, she didn't say anything aside from the 'thank you' words we got from her after she finished one plate of Jollybeef stake. Meron pa pala no'ng tinanong namin 'yong pangalan niya. She just said Silly then nothing came from her after that single word introduction. Mukha ring mahiyain ang bata't mailap sa tao. Bukod do'n ay puro dungis din 'to sa mukha't nanlilimahid ang damit sa dumi. That made other costumer to take a look at us and be bot

   Race's POV She stood up and pulled me from lying. Dahil pasuray-suray at sa takot na rin na bumuwal kaming dalawa, inakbayan ko siya't inalalayan ang bawat hakbang na ginagawa. Lasing na rin ako't dumodoble na ang aking paningin. But unlike her, I know I'm still on my good state.Malapit na kami ni Zena sa sofa nang bigla siyang humiwalay sa akin. She faced me and I was startled when she pushed me. Mabuti na lang at nasalo ako ng sofa.Kahit na hilong-hilo dahil sa pagbagsak ay balak ko na sanang bumangon nang biglang maghubad si Zena sa harapan ko. She took her umbrella dress just like that. Now, she was just wearing her undergarments. Napaiwas ako nang tingin."Zena, you're drunk." Sabi ko't balak na sanang

 Race's POV I cried as I crawled towards Jace. Ace stood up the moment I reached him. He gave way for me to talk with my sibling. I smiled like how my younger brother was smiling at me. "I miss you so much, Kuya." He said. I closed my eyes as the tears bursted out again. My body just moved only to make a hug for my long lost brother. Finally, he's here with me. Mom and Dad, I've finally found Jace. Hinding-hindi ko na po siya pababayaang makawala pa sa paningin ko. Jace embraced me like I came from abroad and this was the first ever time we have to see each other. We both cried as I heard them cried with us. My body was shaking so bad. My fingers were trembling and I couldn't even breathe properly. Hindi ko magawang

 Race's POV Couple of days have passed just like that. Every student at the university was studying hard to get high score for the first semester examinations. Me on the other hand, trying to compromise my time with Jace, Zena, Alexsha, my friends and even in my studies. Well, I'm kinda burndened and pained. Nahihirapan din ako. During those days, I didn't have the chance to sleep. Well, I had few hours. Maybe two or three, I guess? It was good enough than nothing, right? At school, I tried to cope up by my major subjects. I am always reviewing my notes whenever I am walking down the corridors. One time, hindi ko nga sinasadiyang may mabunggo. Sakto pa namang my hawak na ice cream 'yong kasama niya, 'yon. Nakitikim

 Race's POV We went to stage together. Some were looking at us while we were walking towards Mr. Dul Fueno. Suddenly, I felt a hand wrapped around my hand. When I turned to look at Zena, she was smiling at me. Her aura was so light but there was trace of tiredness on her face. It made me make a weak smile as we walked side by side.Nang makarating sa stage ay agad na iniabot sa akin ni Mr. Del Fueno ang mic. I even cussed after it."Show the world how lucky you are, Race. Seize your moment." Bulong pa sa akin ni Mr. Del Fueno."The fuck." I whispered. I have no choice but to do it. I know hundreds of pairs of eyes were staring at me, waiting for what I about to say.Tinitigan ko si Zena. She smiled at me and nodded afterwards. I don't know but it brought me enough cou
