Bar Boys 39

Maxine is pregnant...

And the guy whom I risked my trust with, for the second time, got a woman pregnant...

Hah...

What did I even do in my past life that I'm experiencing all of these now? Don't I deserve to be happy? Bawal ba talaga ang pagmamahalang ito kaya't pinipigilan? Tsk.

It's already dark in the living room, kung nasaan ako ngayon. I've been here since Maxine left. Ilang oras na rin pala akong nandito, nag-iisip isip kung ano na ang mga mangyayari sa akin... sa amin.

Actually, the darkness of this house is very calming and somehow comforting. The silence is just perfect for my screaming mind. Nakapag-iisip ako ng malinaw, ngunit hindi naman ako sigurado kung tama pa ba itong naiisip ko.

I just sighed as I let my back fall against the soft couch that I'm sitting on. Even the gentleness of the soft couch as it embraces my body felt so comforting.

I felt tired. Ganoon na ba talaga ako kapagod?

Ganito pala kapag ang puso't-isip na ang napagod. Damay pati ang katawan. Nakapanghihina ang ganito. Nakapapagod.

I just let my eyes wander at the ceiling of this house. Even though the whole house is dark, the moonlight is just enough to helps me see things a bit. Tamang liwanag lang iyon ngunit nakapagpapakalma ang liwanag na dulot nito.

The faintness of the moonlight inside thie house is like a hope for me. Katamtaman lang. Hindi ganon kaliwanag at hindi rin ganoon kadilim.

A vibration from my phone just beside me took my attention.

My energy seems depleted, and it shows with the way how I slowly looked at my phone beside me. I didn't move tho. I just looked at the bright screen of my phone, waiting for it die down again.

On my lockscreen, there's a message notification from Rafael. Sa baba noon ay ang mga tawag niyang hindi ko nasagot.

Hah. I didn't even notice that he was calling. Was he worried about me? Does he want to have a talk with me to bid his farewell once again? Alam niya na kaya ang kalagayan ni Maxine at nakapag desisyon na siyang piliin ang mag-ina niya?

Hindi ko alam ngunit tila wala na akong lakas para buksan ang mga mensahe niya. Kung ano man ang laman ng mensaheng iyon ay parang ayoko munang malaman, ayoko munang buksan. I just want to conclude things in my mind. Para kahit ano man ang mangyari sa reyalidad ay mas masakit pa rin ang aking mga inisip. Would that even work? My gosh! Tsk.

Hindi ko nga alam kung may pakialam pa ba ako kung dito pa ba siya uuwi o kung doon na kay Maxine. I'm too tired to expect things.

My phone beeped again. Galing muli ang sumunod na mensahe kay Rafael.

And it beeped again.

And again.

Fuck... Should I open it?

Alam ko naman na ang palaging laman ng mensahe niya. Na pauwi na siya and that we should eat together once he's here. O kung hindi man ay tatanungin niya ako kung kumain na ba ako, at kung hindi pa'y dapat na akong maunang kumain dahil matatagalan siya sa trabaho. But those were on a normal and fine day...

Ngayong may isyu kaming kinahaharap ay hindi ko na ata alam ang laman ng mensaheng natanggap. At parang ayaw kong buksan ito.

He probably knows already about Maxine.
