I Feel You Linger In The Air Mga Nobela at Kwento

Nanatili akong nakatitig sa kawalan habang ang puso ko ay parang gusto nang kumawala sa dibdib ko. Tahimik na ang paligid, tanging ang mahinang ugong ng aircon at ang malalim at regular na paghinga niya ang naririnig ko. Maya-maya pa ay naramdaman ko ang pagbigat ng braso niya sa aking bewang, tanda na tuluyan na siyang nilamon ng antok.

I heard Grenov voice pero hindi ko magawang iangat ang mukha ko at salubungin ang paningin niya. Hindi ko narinig sumagot si Lazarro pero maya-maya pa muli kong naramdaman ang kamay niya sa aking bewang at nagsimula na silang mag lakad patungong exit, kaya agad akong sumunod. Hindi pa rin kumakalma ang pagwawala ng dibdib ko kahit pa noong nakalabas na kami ng airport. Huminto sila Lazarro, kaya huminto rin ako.

It’s strangely comforting. “I thought,” I say quietly, “that if I stayed busy enough, strong enough, I wouldn’t feel things anymore.” Umangat ang dibdib niya sa ilalim ng pisngi ko. “And?” “And I was wrong.” Huminto ang kanyang kamay. “Feelings don’t disappear,” he says after a moment. “They wait.” I close my eyes. The cold seeps back into the edges of my body, but now it’s manageable. Cairo notices immediately, shifting again, angling us so his back blocks the wind entirely.

The wind shifts, at naamoy ko ang faint trace ng jasmine perfume—same scent Cynthia used to wear. Or maybe it’s just memory tricking me again. “Maybe,” I admit, my throat dry. “Or maybe… I’m trying to figure out if I’m still alive.” Liza laughs, pero mahina. “That’s such a Drake answer.” “Then what’s a Liza answer?” tanong ko, half-smiling. She steps closer, hanggang maramdaman ko na ang init ng hininga niya. “Something messy. Something real.” The silence between us bends—like glass about to shatter.

Girl, when you walked out that door Left a hole in my heart, and now I know for sure You're the air that I breathe Girl, you're all that I need And I wanna thank you, lady You're the words that I read You're the light that I see And your love is all that I need I was searching in vain Playing your game Had no one else but myself left to blame You came into my world No diamonds or pearls Could ever replace what you gave to me, girl Just like a castle of sand Girl, I almost let love slip right out of my hands And just like a flower needs rain I will stand by your side through the joy and the pain You're the air that I breathe

Nag dahan dahan lang si Akio sa pagmamaneho para makakanta ng maayus si Mayaki. And without really entering her world~~ I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter That funny little girl~~ Slipping through my fingers all the time I try to capture every minute The feeling in it~~ Slipping through my fingers all the time Do I really see what's in her mind Each time I think I'm close to knowing She keeps on growing~~ Slipping through my fingers all the time~~

May bahid ng takot, pero may halo ring galit at disbelief. “That’s exactly our thoughts,” tugon ko, mahina pero diretso. Tumahimik kami pagkatapos, yung tipong dead air pero hindi awkward. Mas parang binibigyan ko siya ng breathing space para ma-absorb lahat ng impormasyon na bigla niyang natanggap. Ramdam ko ang pagbigat ng atmosphere, parang may invisible pressure sa pagitan namin. “Kung ganon…” halos pabulong niyang sabi, “pwedeng may alam siya sa taong nagtatangka sa akin.”

Sana lagi kaming masaya ni Xavier. - When I walk alone Through an empty home I just can't stop thinking of you Do you you feel the pain Could it be the same Are you missing me too I see your face when I close my eyes I see a glimpse of your own paradise You came from heaven above I'm lost in your love Free as the wind You give me wings to fly My girl I feel I could stay In love forever and a day I feel that I could stay In love forever and a day -

What am I doing? Napayuko ako at hinahabol ang sariling hangin. Nagwawala ang pakiramdam ko kanina at mas lalo silang nagwala sa ideyang nandito siya, sa tabi ko. Kasabay ng pagwawala ng mga kalamnan ko ay ang pagdurog din nila dahil din sa parehong ideya. Nandito rin siya sa tabi ko, pero pakiramdam ko ang layo niya. Pakiramdam ko ay sobrang... layo niya. Inangat ko ang ulo ko. Patuloy pa rin sa pagwawala ang iba't ibang kalamnan ko pero ininda ko iyon para itanong sa kanya ang isang bagay na dati ko pa gustong itanong.

I ,I love you like a lovesong baby. [audience participation] “I, I love you you like a lovesong baby..” [Muling kumanta si MeAnn] “I, I love you like a lovesong baby..and I keep hittin' repeat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat.." “Constanly, boy you play through my mind like a symphony. Theres no way to describe what you do to me. You just do to me, what you do and it feels like I’ve been rescued, I’ve been set free.. I am hypnotized by your destiny. You are magical, lyrical, beautiful you are and i want you to know baby..”
