Langit Sa Piling Mo のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

Love… For some unknown reason, Faith found the word music to her ear, tila isang musikang isang beses lamang pinatugtog at alam niyang hahanap-hanapin niya, kahit pa nga hindi siya sigurado kung tama ba siya ng narinig o iyon lamang talaga ang sadya niyang napakingan dahil iyon din ang gusto niyang marinig na sabihin ni Zack. ‘Shit, bakit mo pa ba naman kasi kailangan pang ibulong kung tama man nga ang narinig kong sinabi mo Zack, sasagutin ko naman eh.’ Faith longed to cry out, though she would not dare to admit how her own feelings are confusing her and she hated it that she just can’t say those words afraid that whatever they had will be ruined if she dares to voice out, and hates it even more that all she could do was ask a silent question- Do you love me? Gustong batukan ni Faith ang sarili dahil sa istupidong tanong na iyon, bakit ba kailangan niya pang pahirapan ang sarili niya sa pag iisip tungkol doon gayong alam na alam niya naman ang sagot sa lahat. At bakit rin ba ka

“Natutulog ka ba?” Basag ni Zack sa katahimikan, mabilis na umiling si Faith bilang sagot ngunit mas pinili pa rin ang huwag itong tapunan ng tingin, sa halip ay nanatiling naka higa. Zack was sitting on the bed right next to her, it’s been almost half an hour since their steamy sex and here she is unable to meet his gaze. “What are you thinking?” Faith asked, narinig niya ang mahinang pag buntong hininga ni Zack, ilang minuto rin itong natahimik at hindi niya na kailangan pang tignan ito upang makurmpirmang mataman itong naka titig sa kanya. Faith did not dare to ask him why, instead she remained silent. Wala rin naman kasi siyang sasabihin kay Zack, ewan niya nga ba kung paano at bakit nangyayari ngayon ito, whatever’s going on between them was supposed to be just sex. She knew that isn’t the case to her now, alam niyang hindi lamang sex lang para sa kanya ang mga nangyayari. If it wasn’t so wrong to admit that God forbid she might be falling in love with Zack again

Just please tell me if you knew something I don’t know… Tahimik na pakiusap ni Faith sa tahimk pa ring si Zack, mahigpit ang pagkakayakap nito sa kanya na tila ba ayaw siya nitong pakawalan. Funny enough how much she never wants to let go just the same. Faith could not resist the urge to think that whatever diabolical game fate chose to play with her mother, she had this strong feeling that it has something to do with her, with Zack. She could not help but think how impossible it would be for their parents to have an identical situation at the same time. Yet she was hoping, praying even that whatever she had in mind is not going to happen. But who could she possibly fool if that is indeed the truth… Anong gagawin niya kung sakali man ngang ganoon ang maging sitwasyon? She knew what she had to do, she only need to call her mother to confirm, para rin sa ikatatahimik ng isip niya, ngunit hindi niya itatangging labis ang nararamdaman niyang takot at pangamba sa maari niya

Faith doesn’t know how many times she had tried to call her mother, kanina niya pang hawak ang kanyang cell phone at kulang na lamang ay matunaw na ang numerong nakasulat sa screen niyon sa sama ng kanyang titig. Yet for some reason, she just had no enough courage to dial the number, it wasn’t so long ago when Zack left, yet here she is still lying on her living room’s couch wearing nothing but her underwear, habang nag tatalo ang isip at puso kung tatawagan niya nga ba ang nanay sa Pilipinas upang mag tanong. After the hot sex, she and Zack had shared a while ago, Faith tried not to be surprised when Zack informed her about the date when they will be leaving back to the Philippines, and that would be in three days, funny enough na wala man lamang siyang naisagot kay Zack kanina. Ni hindi niya man lamang nga nakuhang makiusap sa lalaki na baka pwedeng bigyan naman siya nito ng kahit kaunting panahon upang mag paalam muna ng maayos sa trabaho. Malakas na napa buntong hininga si Fai

“Zack, teka nga sandali, pwede mo ba akong kausapin man lang ng maayos? Ano ba ang nangyayari bakit ba saakin ka galit na galit?” Puno ng pag aalalang tanong ni Faith kay Zack, hindi niya na rin pinansin pa ang naiwang mga gamit sa sasakyan nito dahil sa pag mamadaling tumalon palabas ng passenger’s seat upang habulin ang binatang ngayon ay tila walang pakealam na nag tuloy lamang papasok sa isang magara at malaking bahay. The house’s design was modern and Faith no longer need to guess or even imagine how beautiful it is inside, it seemed like the whole house was designed by a famous and great architect, but then the house design was her least worry now. Wala siyang pakealam sa ganda ng bahay na iyon, she wanted Zack, who by now seemed to be playing hard to get. ‘Hard to get, yet he made it very clear how much he wanted to have you naked on his fucking bed…’ Sermon sa sarili ni Faith, saka sandali pang napairap bago muling hinabol ang tuluyan nang nakapasok sa bahay na si Zack.
