Chapter 15 The two of us

Kasey's POV

"There's no need for this, but still, thank you for organizing a party for us" Nice said.

"it's nothing, deserve nyo naman to eh, by the way okay ka lang ba talaga ang pale kasi ng kulay mo"

"okay lang ako, tara na dun sa loob, baka magtaka na yung mga yun"

"okay"

But as we walk towards the living room Nice suddenly collapse, that makes me scared and panic.

"Nice!, uy Nice, gumising ka, hey, guys! Tulong si Nice nahimatay!" I shouted.

"what?!" they all said in chorus as they ran towards us, even our maids.

I touched Nice forehead and there it is, he had a fever.

"inaapoy sya ng lagnat, guys can you help us, iiakyat natin sya sa guest room namin" I said to the boys.

"Miss Kasey, kukuha na po kami ng gamot para kay Sir Nice" one of our maid said

"salamat po ate, mag dala na din po kayo ng tubig sa planggana at saka malinis na towel" utos ko

Then they lift Nice and brought him to one of our guest room. And as they laid him on the bed I get the thermometer to check his body temperature.

"pinagpapawisan sya oh" Cherry said

"Kasey, may spare ba kayong T-shirt pamalit kay Nice?" Vincent ask

"meron ata sa kwarto ni kuya, teka lang kukunin ko"

"woah!, 38 degrees, paano pa sya nakalaro nito kanina kung masama na pala ang pakiramdam nya" Hanz said

"maybe because he really wants to win the game." Denise said

That's the last thing I've heard as I left them to get some of my brothers clothes, sana lang may damit sya dito.

And as I hoped for, meron nga, though medyo malaki to para sa kanya, pero mabuti na rin to kesa sa wala.

Pagbalik ko sa guest room nandun na ang maid namin dala ang mga inutos ko at pinupunasan na ni Claude si Nice ng basang towel.

"ito na yung damit na pamalit, guys can you change his clothes for us?"

"okay" Hanz said

"thanks, sa labas na muna kami, tawagin nyo na lang kami pagkatapos nyo syang bihisan, tatawagan ko na rin ang dad nya" i said before we go out.

Then I dialed his fathers number but he wasn't picking up the phone so I decided to call at their house and luckily their maid answered it, so that I just leave a message to them about Nice.

"mukang wrong timing ata ang party natin ngayon" Cherry said in a sad tone.

"oo nga, ang mabuti pa siguro ay umuwi na kami tutal di-oras na din ng gabi" Denise said

"pero paano si Nice pag umuwi tayo?"

"wag kayong mag alala ako na at ang mga maid namin ang bahala, at saka pupunta din naman dito ang daddy ni Nice mamaya para sunduin sya so, don't worry" I said.

Then they leave few hours when Nice seems better than before.

"talaga bang kaya mong alagaan si Nice?" Vincent ask

"oo naman saka kasama ko naman sila ate (referring to our maid), at saka padating na din si lolo at ang daddy ni Nice kaya naman wala kayong dapat ipag alala, alam nyo ang mabuti pa ihatid nyo na lang sila Denise at Cherry sa kanila, past 7 na ng gabi oh, kaya naman wag na kayong mag alala, i'll inform all of you once his dad came, okay?!, sige na inaantay na kayo ng driver oh"

"okay, sabi mo eh, tara na guys umuwi na tayo" Kris said.

So there they are, on their way home.

Pinahatid ko na sila sa family driver namin para di na sila magbayad sa taxi.While I am busy looking after this guy and waiting for grandpa to return.

After an hour Nice woke up.

"Oh!, gising ka na" I said as I saw him open his eyes.

"oo, t-teka nasaan ako?, yung iba? Nasaan sila?"

"nandito ka sa guest room sa bahay namin, nahimatay ka kasi bigla kanina, paano ba naman inaapoy ka na pala ng lagnat, tapos sila umuwi na kanina pa about an hour ago, here uminom ka na muna ng tubig" I answered

"ganon ba, pasensya na nasira ko ata yung party nyo" he said after drinking it.

"ano ka ba, wala yun ang mahalaga sa ngayon gumaling ka, wait lang let's check your temperature again to see if your fever have gone down"

I said while preparing the thermometer.

"may lagnat ka pa din, mabuti pa kumain ka na muna nagpaluto ako ng pagkain"

"hindi na, okay lang ako, uuwi na ako, masyado na kitang naaabala"

"ano ka ba naman paano kang uuwi nyan eh may lagnat ka pa, saka hindi ka abala sa akin, okay, halika ka na, tulungan na kitang tumayo at maglakad pababa"

"tulungan tumayo, eh di naman ako pilay ah, may lagnat lang, .. Teka lang, bakit iba na ang suot kong damit?"

"wait lang!, bago ka mag isip nang kung ano-ano dyan tungkol sa damit mo, para lang po sa kaalaman mo, hindi ako ang nagpalit ng damit mo, okay!, sila Vincent ang nagpalit nyan habang busy ako na tawagan ang daddy mo" explain ko.

"bakit?!, wala naman ako sinabi na ikaw ang nagpalit nitong damit ko, any way Kasey, Thank you" he said.

"It's nothing, halika ka na para makakain ka na"

Then I helped him stand up, but as soon as he take a step to walk natumba sya, at sa akin pa sya natumba.

Dahil sa di hamak naman na mas matangkad at mabigat sa akin tong lalaki na to, natumba na din ako, and here we are lying on the bed while he was on top of me.

"I-I'm sorry" he said.

Is it deja vu? It also happen before but before I was the one who is on top of him.

"o-okay lang, pero Nice, ang bigat mo" I said while trying to help him stand up.

But as I figured out he was still feeling numb, while I also feel weak.

*heartbeat.. Dugdugdugdugdugdug*

What is this, why does my heart beats so fast, and why does I got this feeling that my face was turning red?.

"sorry talaga" He said as he got up.

"o-okay lang, h-halika ka na, baba na tayo." bakit na-uutal ako?

Cherry's POV

"guys sa tingin nyo okay lang si Kasey dun?"

"wag kang mag alala, nandun naman ang maids nila, saka tulog naman si Nice, and I'm sure kung magising man yun wala yung gagawing masama kay Kasey" Denise said.

"I know it, pero ewan ko ba napapraning na ata ako"

"hay naku babe, mabuti pa magpahinga ka na lang pag ka-uwi mo, may pasok pa tayo bukas di ba?, baka magka-eyebags ka nyan, kakaisip" Kris said.

"Bakit pag nagka eyebags ba ako di mo na ako mahal?" I said while pouting.

"syempre naman mahal parin kita, alam mo naman na ikaw lang one and only ko diba?"

"talaga?!"

"oo naman, I love you" He whispered.

"I love you too" I whispered at him.

"Aish!, baka nakakalimutan nyo nandito pa po kami!!, kaya pwede tigilan nyo na yang landian nyo kung ayaw nyong pababain ko kayo ngayon na!" Hanz said

"bitter ka lang eh, maghanap ka na din kasi ng girlfriend mo para di ka nabi-bitter"

"ewan ko sa inyo"

Time pass by quick, wala pang ilang saglit nasa tapat na kami ng bahay ng kambal, and less than an hour nasa bahay na ako. I text Kasey after I got home, and few minutes after she text us to tell that Nice was awake and it seems that he was fine though may lagnat pa rin sya.

I just thought that, maybe Kasey and Nice was a little oblivious about their feelings for each other, or maybe it was me who was exaggerating their actions towards each other. But still I was hoping na maging sila sa huli , dahil sa tingin ko bagay sila sa isa't isa.

Nice's POV

'What is this strange feeling?'

'Bakit kapag nandyan si Kasey hindi ako mapakali, para bang sobrang bilis ng tibk ng puso ko, at saka bakit ba naiinis ako kapag may kausap syang ibang lalaki, kahit pa na sila Vincent ang kausap nya napipikon ako, ano ba to?'. Yan ang tanong na gumugulo sa isip ko ilang linggo na ang nakalipas.

And since I can't find any answer and my father also notice that I was spacing out a lot sa bahay he ask me and there I told him about it, and what did he say, sinabi lang naman nya na GUSTO at MAHAL ko na daw si Kasey. Yun nga ba talaga ang dahilan?.

And last night, I, myself confirmed it, tama nga si dad, I already like Kasey, I realized it while she was nursing me due to my fever.

But how am I suppose to tell it to her. Or should I tell her?.

But what if she didn't feel the same way I did?. What am I supposed to do?.
