Crystalline Skies

"Daddy, will you get mad if I tell you I'm with Noah again?" I am sitting on the grass beside my father's grave.

"Pero...I realized, pagnalapit ako sakanya. Mas malalapit ulit ako sa taong nanakit sayo. I got the chance to get you justice, Dad. Hindi lang ikaw, pati si Tita Elaine. Alas ko ang anak niya, better use him for my own benefit." I said.

"Don't worry, I can take care of myself. Just give me a few time dad, I'll give you the peace you deserve."

"Hi, Tita...I know we may not met personally. But I know, the way my dad protects you. You are the best person, and a daughter to them." Saad ko.

"Just wait...I won't promise you. Pero gagawin ko ang lahat. I'll continue it for you and Dad's sake. Huli man na ang lahat but to the very least, gusto ko makuha niyo yon."

I wiped my tears. Hindi ko talaga mapigilan ang sarili ko na umiyak tuwing nandito ako.

"Here." Someone handed me a handkerchief. I looked up to see who it is.

"Gavril." I called.

He squated beside me and placed a bouquet of flowers.

"It's sad that I don't meet you personally Mr. Castillo. But nice meeting you still, you really have a good daughter." Gavril said.

"Gavril..." I said. "Can you help me?"

"Of course, anything for you."

"Can you ask someone to investigate this person? And please don't tell my grandfather that I told you to help me." Saad ko.

"Why? Sino ba ang taong to?"

"Noah Santillan and his father Noel."

"Look for his whereabouts, and try to get information about his father. Alam ko ay hindi nagdidisclose ng information recently si Noel Santillan. I wanna know how he's doing." Saad ko.

"Hindi ako makakapayag na that Noel is still free. Just like my father, I want him jailed. No matter how he is, may sakit o wala. But first let me know what he is up to." Dugtong ko.

"Okay, got it. Don't worry, akong bahala." Aniya.

"Thank you, Gavril."

"So...as a return, can I invite you?"

I remembered he asked me yesterday. Kinabukasan na rin kasi ako nakabisita, different from what I planned that I'll go by the afternoon.

"How can I say no? I'm asking a huge favor to you." Natatawa kong saad. Inilahad niya ang kamay upang alalayan ako makatayo. I accepted his hand and he even helped me remove some grass on my jeans.

"Thanks." Saad ko.

Ipinagbukas niya rin ako ng pinto ng sasakyan niya.

"Ipapahatid ko nalang sa driver ko ang kotse mo sainyo. Just give the keys to him." Saad ni Gavril.

"Okay, thank you." Iniabot ko yon sa driver niya at saka sumakay sa kotse nito. I went with him on a restaurant and we just had a simple brunch there.

"Sayang at out of town si Dad, he's really anticipating you kaya lang nagka emergency meeting sa Manila office."

"He seemed to be very busy, magpahinga naman kamo siya." Sabi ko.

"Very much kaya naman ay tumutulong na rin ako rito as much as I can." Sagot nito saakin.

"How's Levi? We haven't talk for so long."

"Ayon still the same stubborn guy, busy with drag racing as a hobby or motocross." Sagot ko.
