One Saturday evening , I was at home dealing with my assignments before I received a call from a very old friend of mine.
"hellow, Mew!?" the guy from another line spoke.
"Yeah, how is it San?" I responded.
"All cool dude, I was told by aunt Mena that u are in Thailand!"
"Yeah, but I won't stay for long , until I graduate in the third year then I'll leave for good ".
" Is this by your own will or someone influenced you?" he asked.
"Well, its dad. He wanted me to be here" I told him.
" But Mew, are u sure u are okay with this?" he seemed to worry ." Can we meet so we can talk please ?" San asked.
Well, since I was all bored at home, I accepted to go meet him in the restaurant .
San and I used to be neighbors while I was in California . He knew about me and my family so he became like a brother to me since he was always there whenever I needed some help. He's been my great shoulder for a very long time since my childhood and my mom used to appreciate him so much. I can never forget how he took care of me during my mother's funeral 5 years ago due to plane accident when she was travelling for her business trip. San encountered a lot of challenges when taking care of me during that time of funeral. There is when I saw my dad for the first time but I didn't get a chance to talk with him because Aunt Mena took me to live with her. Since then, San took all the responsibility as a brother to take care of me . But the thoughts about the thing between my mom and dad hasn't cleared itself yet in my mind. It kept triggering my mind more often after I knew what my father was. This was really a great puzzle in my head.
My thoughts were distracted when a guy called me from an angle of the restaurant. It was San. It only took me 20 minutes to arrive the restaurant that he allocated me earlier to meet him. I walked towards him and he stood up to welcome me with a hug. He is always like this when he misses me.
"Long time no see Mew. U have really grown up!" he spoke as he let me sit on the chair.
" Have u seen yourself San, u are getting old already" I teased him regarding to how older he looks than me. And by the way, he was 5 years older than I. We sat there laughing and telling different stories about the life experiences we had after we departed from each other 2 years ago since he had to go for further studies in Japan.
We ordered some drinks, food and since the restaurant was a cool one, there was no bumping music. There were some special people assigned to perform on the stage, different kinds of music and bands. As we were still chatting, there's a certain guy who was performing a song on the stage. I don't know what got into me that as he was singing the song, it made all my mood turn to be so sensitive . It was the song my mom used to play so often whenever we were together in her car driving somewhere, she really loved singing and listening to that song (favourite song) . Its not that I have never heard other people singing this song before, but the way this guy sang it was way more different , I couldn't help but to drop a tear. I never imagined that there are people who have such powerful vocals like that guy on the stage.
With all the strength I had left in me, I immediately rushed to the men's room and locked the door. I had no guts to stop myself from missing my mom. She was my world, my heart, my soul and my spirit . Her loss was one of the biggest gap that was left in my heart that I don't think if anyone could ever fill it to the brim. The wound that was built in me, I don't know when it will heal because i've always felt like its still fresh. Like it was just yesterday when this traumatic event happened while 5 years have passed already since i lost her.
" Mew, Mew are u okay?" I heard San calling me from outside. I really had no guts to answer, my emotions were overflowing like a river.
" Please say something Mew!.....Mew!".
I had to calm my nerves before deciding to face San, I didn't want him to feel sorry for me anymore.
"I'm okay" I answered as I was getting out of the toilet.
" I got worried of u!"
"why?" I asked him.
" You suddenly acted so strange! what is going on?"
" Nothing San, I just felt a call of nature but seems it's not. My stomach is upset"
"I got worried of u .Come on, let's prepare to leave now.."
"Okay, but u can just wait outside as I go to clean my hands"
"Don't take long Mew, I'm waiting ".
Then San left the room. I headed to the sink and washed my face with that warm water. I rubbed my hair and looked at my reflection to the mirror .
" Who is that guy?....... How could he make me feel this way?.....Like I feel my mom's presence all over again!.....Who is he?." I spoke as I stared at my reflection for a while, then breathed in and out heavily to catch a relief and walk outside. As I looked to the platform, the guy was nowhere to be found.
I didn't know where he disappeared to, but I opted to find him someday. There was really something unique about him that I can't stand it until I find out what that thing is. How could he hurt my feelings so easily like that?
"Mew!"I heard San's voice from a far and there is when I knew that I was already lost in my thoughts..I walked to the table and sat.
"Is something wrong Mew?" San asked..
"Nope, I just appreciate the performance" I spoke while preparing myself to leave. When we were both ready, we stood up and left but before I got out from that restaurant , I looked to the platform again hoping to see that guy but....nothing! We got in the car and left.
While in the car San was talking about random stuff but seems my mind kept wondering each time."Mew..Mew....MEW!!!!"
"YES!" I hurriedly responded after realizing that I have been lost in my thoughts again...
"What do u say San!?"
" Mew, u act so strange lately..Tell me what is happening , am like your blood brother right?!" San insisted..He was right but now I needed to sort things on my own..San has helped me alot and I don't want to show him that I still need that kind of care from him anymore. I'm all grown up now, I can handle things on my own .
" Its nothing San, I just remembered that I haven't completed my assignment haha" I pretended.
" Is that the reason why u look so stressed like that?!" he asked doubtly.
"Haha, yes. Nothing more..." . Then San continued to drive me till home coz he didn't come with his car.
Thanks for the viewers. I'm trying so hard to make Mew's personality exposed to u guys. I hope u get something from this chapter...Better hopes for the next chapter 😇😇
