Sophie's POV
" Joe how could you hide this from me ? " inis na sabi ni Tita Ana kay Joe .
" Ma , ayaw ko lang naman na mag-alala ka I wanted to tell you for a long time but I dont know how "
" Matagal mo nang alam ?! CANCER IS NOT A JOKE JOE !! YOU SHOULD'VE TOLD ME THE MOMENT YOU KNEW ABOUT IT ! "
Teka ! Cancer ?! Anong nangyayari ?
" I didnt wanna believe it okay ? I made myself believe that its all a joke . I made a fool out of myself " sabi nya and I saw him shed a tear .
" It will be okay .. I promise. " sabi sa kanya ni Tita habang nakayakap kay Joe .
After their conversation nagpaalam si Tita na kakausapin nya daw muna yung mga doctor. I dont want to speak to him at the moment.
I dont know how to react , gusto kong ma feel bad dahil hindi nya man lang sinabi sa akin but I pity him because of his situation .
" Sophie ... " he called out . Ayoko sanang kausapin sya but he looked like he really needed someone to talk to .
" Can you accompany me ? "
I took a deep breath at sinasabi sa sarili ko na , wag nalang imention kay Joe yung nalaman ko .
" Sure " dinala ko sya sa balcony and we just looked at the view .
" Pangit , I'm sorry " sabi nya , breaking the deep silence .
" For what ? "
" Kasi .... " he paused and looked down " Kasi hindi ko magagawa yung promise ko , hindi ko magagawa yung promise kong hindi kita iiwan " sabi nya .
" Tss dont say that , 'di ka pa mamamatay no . Wag kang excited dyan hahaha " I gave him a fake smile while holding a lot of tears.
" Gusto mo samahan mo ako dun ? " he said trying to lift the sadness in our atmosphere .
" Adik ka talaga ! Matutupad yung promise mo , trust me . You'll stay here , with me "
He hugged me by my side and rested his head on my shoulders .
" Baliw talaga ako , hindi ko rin alam kung bakit hindi ko yun sinabi kay kila mama . I kinda feel din kasi na may hint na sya about it "
" Sana sinabi mo agad , para naagapan agad . You're a really messed up guy . Kung ako ang nasa posisyon mo siguro sinabi ko na sa magulang ko yan "
" I'm such a mess .... "
" Bakit nga pala hindi yan alam ni tita Ana ? Bakit ikaw lang nakakaalam ? "
" Actually my dad also knew about but he didn't had the chance na sabihin yun kay mama . I was afraid to tell her .
A person came to us at sabi nya na kailangan niyang makausap si Joe kaya bumalik muna ako dun sa kwarto nya . Naabutan ko dun si Chimera na umiiyak .
" Oh Chim bakit ka umiiyak ? " sabi ko sa kanya sabay uppo sa tabi nya . Mabilis nyang pinunasan yung luha nya at sinabing wala lang daw yun .
" Pwede ba yun ? Just tell me what's bothering you " pamimilit ko sa kanya .
" Kasi hindi ko matanggap yung nangyayari kay kuya Joe . Hindi ko naman kasi alam and if I knew then I never should've been the worst sister to him . I always stress him about my tantrums and problems , I always bug him about the silliest things " sabi ni Chimera at di na nya napigilan yung luha nya .
" Dont feel bad about those things , it's what little sisters do , 'diba ? You should be thankful to have a sibling that still stands by you no matter what . Kung ako nga I never felt the feeling of having a sibling eh but I know it's definetely loads of fun to have one "
" Siguro nga , I just really miss the old him "
" Old him ? " nagtataka kong tanong
" He was a super jolly at friendly nun . Yung parang he doesnt even have any problems . One day its like his happiness just vanished and never found . Nung nalaman kong matagal na pala syang may sakit naisip kong yun yung dahilan kung bakit naving malungkot yung personality nya . Ever since then gusto kong maibalik yung dati nyang saya . Alam mo ba ate Sophie , everytime I meet a nice girl , I make a plan to make my brother fall for that girl . Nung nandyan ka I decided to put my plan on you pero lagi nalang nasisira yun dahil sa ibat-ibang reasons . "
She paused for a while at mas lalong pang lumungkot yung pakiramdam nya . I hugged her then she looked at me .
" Ate Sophie youre different from those other girls , my brother fell in love with you naturally . Siguro fate na ang nagtakda para dun . Since the time the both of you became close I saw him happy again . Never hurt him Ate Sophie , as a loving sister I'm begging you na sana lagi syang masaya with you " sabi nya and she sobbed.
" I will never hurt him Chim , thats a promise . " I said while comforting her .
" Joe is so blessed to have a loving sister like you . Sana pag nahanap ko yung kapatid ko maging best friends kayo "
She wiped the tears in her eyes but I can still feel her sadness .
" Just forget about that for now okay ? Think positive thoughts and just be happy . Magiging okay ang lahat , trust me "
" Thanks Ate Sophie "
I really want Joe to be okay . I hope and pray that he'll stay longer . I don't want him to go . He'll overcome this , I'll always be by his side . All of our hearts break if he leaves.
