YM778.TV Chapter 574
I exclaimed, “WHAT DID YOU DO?!”
Kaley stammered, “I-I-I-I P-PANICKED, OKAY?!”
“PANICKED?! WHAT GOOD DOES KNOCKING HER OUT WOULD DO?!”
“I DIDN’T KNOW!!! THAT’S WHY IT’S CALLED PANICKING!!!”
“DID YOU ALSO PANIC WHEN YOU DECIDED TO STAY BEHIND AND LISTEN TO WHAT WE’RE SAYING?!”
“I-I-I U-Umm… THAT’S NOT IMPORTANT RIGHT NOW!!! W-WE HAVE TO WAKE HER UP!!! D-DO YOU THINK SHE’LL R-REMEMBER THIS?!”
“WHAT?! ARE YOU HOPING THAT SHE’LL LOSE A PORTION OF HER MEMORIES FROM THAT?! WHY DON’T YOU JUST SMASH YOUR MOM’S HEAD ON THIS WALL!!!”
“HNGH~ J-JUST HELP ME, OKAY?! L-Let’s just try to w-wake her up…”
I sighed as I shook my head, “Fine… I a bottle from Oscar in my other pouch… make her sniff it…”
“O-Okay… This one?”
“Yeah… let’s lay her down on the bed first…”
“Y-Yeah…”
“…”
“…”
“Hey…”
“Y-Yeah?”
“Did you hear everything?”
“…”
“Kaley…”
“Y-Yeah…”
“…”
“…”
We were silent for the duration that Marisha was unconscious and we were still silent the moment she woke up. Marisha was slightly groggy as she looked at us but she only glared at Kaley momentarily before hugging her tight. Kaley just started crying once more yet no words were exchanged from the two. Marisha just turned to me and let out a faint smile before excusing herself and leaving Kaley and me in our room.
Kaley’s face was still flushed as she was trying to wipe her tears but I didn’t even know what to do in that situation. A million things were running through my head and what I f.u.c.k.i.n.g landed on was just to look at her from a few feet away.
‘What the f.u.c.k am I doing…’
‘After all that I said… this is what I’m doing…’
‘I should be… I should-‘
My thoughts were still running through my head but I just found myself in her arms. Kaley just wrapped her arms around me as we fell on the bed and she just kept crying on my chest nonstop. I didn’t even notice that I started crying as well but it wasn’t because we were sad, it was because we were just happy. I couldn’t read her thoughts for sure but I just felt like we were thinking the same thing even without proof.
I’ve never believed in anything without scientific proof before but maybe this was the first time.
Kaley muttered as her head was still buried in my chest, “I’m s-sorry… okay? And… thank you too…”
“Me too… I’m sorry for everything but thank you for everything… I guess we’re just really stupid, huh? I guess mothers really knows best, eh? Your mom is something else… I didn’t even know that I’ll cry today and spill out everything inside of me… that’s why I never go to therapy…”
“What’s wrong with crying? At least you look cool when you’re crying… I’m a mess when I do…”
“Definitely… especially when you’re nose blows bubbles from your snot…”
Kaley pinched me, “Wha- it didn’t! W-Well… I’m not s-sure…”
“…”
“…”
“Hey…”
“Y-Yeah?”
“I don’t care anymore…”
“Huh? What do you-”
“We always joked about it but I really do want to marry you… even if we continue to sleep with our friends, I don’t care. Even if I can’t figure out what I really want, I don’t care. Even if nothing changes, I don’t care. Once that ring is ready, I’ll shove your finger inside it and we’ll f.u.c.k for a whole f.u.c.k.i.n.g day, and I’ll cook you everything that you wanted when we take breaks. I’ll even make it a holiday if it comes to that and I’ll gun down anyone that disturbs us.”
Kaley started laughing as she looked at me, “Weirdest proposal ever… I know I’ll never get bored when I’m with you… I thought you’re supposed to go down on one knee? And what’s with the initial passiveness and the sudden aggressiveness?!”
“Heh, I’ll do more than go down in one knee if that’s what it takes. But yeah, I don’t even care anymore! F.u.c.k it! I’m not even asking you to marry me, I’m just letting you know that I’ll f.u.c.k.i.n.g marry you and you’d just have to deal with it. Call me whatever you want but f.u.c.k it! You’ll be taking my last name and I won’t even allow you to hyphenate! F.u.c.k it! That ring is just a symbol! We’re married right now and we’ll need to consummate! Take off your clothes and clear your schedule! We’re doing it right now!”
“Hahahaha! You! You’re losing it! You’re finally losing it!”
“Finally?! I’ve already lost it a long time ago! It’s your fault you married a psychopath! You should’ve noticed the signs from the beginning!”
“Wow~ Going back to that, eh? Hahahaha! You’re so stupid! We both are!”
Kaley and I started just laughing and the tears that were still in our eyes just glistened as we looked at each other. It got quiet for a short moment before we started kissing each other then one thing led to another, making us miss breakfast completely. We just couldn’t get our hands off of each other at the moment and we went for a few more when we were in the shower.
With that said, we just discovered a plate of food in our kitchen and we shared it with each other. I was surprised that no one came to pick us up and I was sure Marisha had something to do with it.
When we finally geared up and went outside, our team was just patiently waiting for us even though Oscar, Artem, Harold, and the rest had already left a few hours ago. My group was wearing faint smiles as we boarded our Raptor but they were more focused on Kaley’s flushed expression. However, I on the other hand just couldn’t stop smiling like an idiot because I was just so happy for what happened.
Tatiana instantly broke the silence as she turned to Kaley, “You’re glowing. A bit more we could use you as a beacon! Umm- Kaley? I already guarded. Yoohoo~ Kaley? Wow~ The f.u.c.k kind of f.u.c.k.i.n.g did you do to turn her like this? Damn~ What?! Even that didn’t do anything? Something’s wrong… something’s definitely wrong… Okay, stop. You two are weirding me out! What happened back there?! Answer me!”
Everyone except us was losing their minds because they for sure thought Kaley would at least fight back but Kaley just blushed even more. Surprisingly enough, she just remained silent the whole time but every shot she took while we were on the way was dangerously accurate. When she changed targets, reloaded her rifle, cleared a jam, called out shots, and etc., she was like a well-oiled machine from the way she moved.
Our group took to the road this time and we were heading back to Monumento but going through the other side of the road. We’d be clearing the road from this side while Oscar would be clearing the road from the other. I would’ve brought our helicopter with us but their fuels weren’t cheap or easily accessible. We’d need to limit their usage if we were just clearing the roads some more.
On the way, the barangay of Karuhatan was still boggling my mind as to how clean and quiet it was. It actually felt haunted by how empty it was except for the random stragglers that would pop out from the edges of the barangay. Furthermore, any attempt to contact the alleged occupants of the area would still draw a blank and there was more success in regards to making contact from Quezon City.
‘If they don’t wanna talk, so be it… We’ll just keep announcing we’ll pass through here…’
The moment we arrived, Artem’s group was present along with several soldiers and builders already working our current job. The dead were being cleared and taken down continuously while another group was taking care of the train cars sprawled around the circle. Sparks would just fly while a wrenching sound of metal getting bent aggressively could be heard once the broken-down train cars were getting pulled or pushed to one side.
Marina approached us with Natasha, “Took you guys a while.”
I chuckled, “Yeah, we just got married. Wait- engaged? F.u.c.k it! I don’t care what the terms are anymore! Wow! It’s kinda freeing in the head if you don’t think about stuff! Is this what ignorance feels like?!”
The people close to us were losing their minds from my announcement but I was still trapped in a monologue I brought upon myself. Kaley continued to be withdrawn on the other hand but the loud dude just broke through at the right time.
Oscar was operating a bulldozer, “BACK AWAY, YOU LITTLE SHITS! THIS SHIT IS FASTER!”
