Its been what 2 weeks and 3 days since you left us. I don't know what I should say. Parang kahapon lang ang lahat. I can still remember how I got the news.

FLASHBACK

Nakahiga lang ako at nagsscroll sa fb ko . Nanlaki yung mata ko nang makita kung sino yung tumatawag

Grace Royu is calling in Messenger
Accept        Decline

"Bat kaya tumatawag si ate grace" saad ko habang pinipindot yung accept button

"Hello po" sagot ko

"Hello Naomi?" sagot niya habang humihikbi sa kabilang linya

"Po?" sagot ko habang kinakabahan

"Si Yannie wala na" saad niya habang umiiyak sa kabilang linya

"Po?" patawa kong sagot

Natahimik ng ilang segundo, hindi ko alam irereact ko, totoo ba to? panaginip lang?

"Hello?" saad ni ate grace

"Po, uhm kelan pa po?" tanging nasagot ko

"Kani-kanina lang"

"Ah"

"Hindi ko kase macontact si Jyxen kaya ikaw na lang tinawagan ko"

"Ah sige po" tanging nasagot ko

"Ikaw nalang maginform sa kanila ah"

"Ah sige po, salamat po ate" sabay baba niya ng tawag

I first told my mom about it and nagulat din siya then it sinks in pano ko to sasabihin sa kanila. Baka hindi nila kayanin. I tried contacting Jyxen's phone and messenger but can't,  I tried contacting Juhlien but no luck, I chatted our group no seen. I didn't think I can't contact Lourdes for now. Maybe tomorrow tulog na yun dahil may pasok pa siya and yes ako din but... I can't sleep now. I contacted Jyxen's messenger again and yes she answered

"Hello bal" bungad niya

"Bal alam mo na ba?" Bungad ko sakanya, shocks nanginginig ako ng sobra

"Ang alin?" naguguluhan niyang tanong saken

"Di mo pa alam?" sagot ko habang nanginginig padin

"Ang alin nga" sagot niya

"Si Yannie wala na" I can say na nablangko din siya

Umakyat ako sa 2nd floor namin since wala namang tao doon since on construction pa

"Teka" sagot niya this time naiyak na ako, nagsink in ng konti saken na wala na si Yannie

I explained the details to her and though we didn't end the call were just quiet, feeling each others comfort after a little while connection na niya yung kusang nagend. Hindi ako agad bumaba dahil umiiyak pa ko. When I calmed down bumaba na ko.

END OF FLASH BACK

I remember everything like it all happens yesterday. Ever since that day I feel like I'm a robot, I can't feel emotions, ang hirap pala kapag mentally lang yung ready kase kahit anong ready mo babagsak lahat. Titigil lahat. I remember when my first bestfriend died and Yannie comforted me. I told her "wag mo kong iiwan ha, hindi ko na alam gagawin ko pag nawala ka" and I'm in that phase already. Ano nang gagawin ko ngayon wala na siya. She also left me.
