Chris

"how did I do?" he asked sarcastically

"magaling Greg" sabi ko at nakipag apir sa kanya

"mga anak" bigla kaming napalingon nang marinig ang boses ni mama

"ma?"

"ma..."

Halos sabay naming sabi ni Greg. But his tone was different. Less worried, at parang malamig

Ano bang iniisip ko? Greg was always cold

Agad akong lumuhod sa tabi ni mama

"tawagin mo yung nurse, Greg-"

"stop, son" napatigil si Greg na palabas na sana nang kwarto "lock the door"

Tumango si Greg at nilock ang pinto

Suddenly I feel confused. Anong meron? Bakit parang normal lang ang tono ni mama ngayon? Epekto lang ba to nang gamot na sumisira sa katawan nya? O baka...

Wala talaga syang sakit

"wala na tayong oras, kaya makinig kayong mabuti"

I held her hand smiling. Gising ang mama ko! She won't leave me!

"bakit ma? Anong meron?" Greg kneeled beside me, still emotionless

"it won't be long until your grandparents know about my plans. I failed you, mga anak. Sana patawarin nyo ko"

My brows furrowed. She... Failed?

"this is our last encounter. Please listen to my instructions"

"a-ano? Ma naman, wag ka naman magsabi nang ganyan" I was breaking down

I felt Greg comforting me by tapping my back

"sinadya ko to anak, your Tito Alex warned me, so this is my consequence"

I saw tears flooding her eyes. Ganon din ako

"this very moment, papunta na ang lolo nyo sa bahay, makikita nya ang mga ebidensyang nahanap namin ni Alex. But I want you to stay calm and act like you know nothing of this"

"ma..." I said in tears "pwede ka naming itakas dito, I'll do everything to keep you safe"

She reached for my face and wiped my tears

"Gevi, kahit itakas nyo ako, habang buhay mamimiligro ang buhay natin. Gagawa nang paraan ang lolo nyo para takpan ang mga kagagawan nya"

"that b*stard" narinig kong sabi ni Greg

All was a blur. Ba't parang namamaalam na si Mama sa amin?

"alam kong galit kayo ngayon. But I want you to listen carefully and act as if you two know nothing, okay?"

"ma..." hinigpitan ko ang hawak ko sa kamay nya

"walang kasalanan ang papa nyo. At lalong walang kasalanan ang tunay nyong lolo"

"hindi namin lolo si-"

"oo Greg, Rolex is not my real father"

I was in the middle of breaking in tears. Alam ko rin naman ang partial point nang mga sinasabi ni mama pero wala na akong pake. All I care about is seeing her, alive. Wala na akong pake sa mga sinasabi nya

I want her to live. I want to be happy. Kulang na kulang pa ang panahong pinagsamahan namin. I won't let her go. She won't die. Not now

"I want you both to find justice. Greg, narinig kong ikaw na ang kukuha sa posisyon ko, the weigh is heavier than you think, but I trust you... Avenge our family"
