The drive home was overly silent.
Jakob was giving me the silent treatment.
I want to talk to him.
Hinahanap ng mga kamay ko ang init ng sa kaniya. His left hand was outside the window, casually letting in the fresh air.
Jakob's right hand was on the steering wheel. I want to hold his hand but I'm afraid.
Ganito ba ang magiging relasyon namin? Moments of happiness and then an equal bitterness later?
I want to understand him, but I can't help but ask inwardly if he's doing the same.
It pains me to know nothing. I don't know what to do.
As much as I want to stay away from his past, 'di ko rin naman kasi masisisi ang sarili na mag-overthink.
I'm not dumb. Alam ko sa kilos ng mga tao kanina sa opisina na may mali. They were trying to hide something for me.
My inquisitive nature wants to know about it.
Hindi itatago ni Jakob sa akin ang mga bagay-bagay but I am starting to doubt his honesty.
If it concerns me and he's trying to hide it from me, I will hate him.
Buong buhay ko kailangan kong magpanggap at ngayon na naramdaman ko ang kalayaan sa lugar na'to, ayaw ko ng bumalik doon.
I want to be free.
I should be free.
Miracle.
This name made no sense. Dahil sa pangalan na 'yan ay hindi ko mapigilan ang sarili na tanungin kung ano ang meron dito.
Jakob started acting like this after he saw me with the mayor. Were they hiding something from me?
I observed how Jakob reacted when Mr. Yu addressed me as Miracle after their meeting.
Jakob was silent but he was looking but me. It must've been that name.
Sino si Miracle?
Ako si Miracle.
O meron pang ibang Miracle?
"You will give me the silent treatment now, really, Jakob?" I can't hold myself kaya ako na ang nagsimula ng usapan.
He was still focus maneuvering the damn car at umaakto siyang walang naririnig.
I get it that he's mad. For what?
God, this man and his multitude of attitudes!
"Just talk to me, please? Why are you acting like that? As far as I'm concerned, wala talaga akong maisip na nagawang kasalanan."
Nag-iigting ang panga niya at matatalim ang mata niya sa daan kaya alam kong may kinagagalit ito.
"Jakob naman!" Kinuyom ko ang kamao dahil sa inis.
The car drove passed the market, 'yung place na nadaanan ko minsan na may maraming foods.
He said he would take me there. He promised.
Kanina pa ako nagugutom.
I badly want to say it to him, na itigil ang sasakyan kasi nagugutom ako at gusto kong kumain dun pero pinigilan ko ang sarili.
Wala nga pala akong karapatan na mag-inarte.
I looked outside the window and watch as the car passed the area.
Huminga ako ng malalim, thinking that I could just eat back home. Bumuga ako ng hangin at hindi na tumingin sa kaniya.
Jakob promised to show me the place.
