Elora’s Point of View
KAKALABAS ko lang from the bathroom when I saw Uncle Seb sitting on the edge of the bed. Napahawak ako sa laylayan ng suot kong pantulog; bigla akong kinabahan, lalo na nang bumaling ito sa akin. His eyes were red from his drunkenness. Gusto ko na lang tuloy tumakbo palabas ng kwartong ito upang maka-iwas sa kanya. He was asleep kanina; then he's awake again.
"You're finally home," anito. Napalunok ako nang makita ko siyang tumayo. He slowly walked towards me, na siyang ikina-atras ko.
"W-what are you doing?" kinakabahan at napapalunok na tanong ko.
He didn't say anything; he just walked towards me until he was standing in front of me. Para akong mawawalan ng hininga. He pulled me by the waist, na siyang halos ikapugto ng aking hininga.
"You smell good, baby."
