"Kaya mo?"
Tinignan ko nang masama si Light na nakatayo lang sa harap ko. His arms are crossed over his chest. Just examining me, his brows are almost knitting because it looks like he's struggling for me, too. I glared at him more.
"Nakaka-inis ka," I said, irritated
"Hala? Bakit?" He laughed. "Anong ginawa ko po sa'yo?" He pouted.
I winced when I finally stood up. "Oo, kaya ko," I rolled my eyes. Naglakad na ako papunta sa bag ko at kumuha ng towel para maligo na. I feel so sticky. Inaantok pa nga ako, nasanay lang ang katawan kong maaga gumising nang maaga. Kahit ang sakit ng katawan ko.. I wansn't given the memo that he'd..
That he'd do me 'til morning. My God.
Hindi man lang ako nakapag-prepare.. It's been eight years since I had.. You know with someone!
Nabigla ako!
"Kaya mo? You want let's take a shower tog-"
"Shut up, my God! You are so vulgar!" I hissed and dragged myself to the bathroom. I shut the door at his face, rinig na rinig ko ang tawa niya. Natutuwa ba siyang.. Nahihirapan ako?!
Nang makalabas ako, nandoon lang siya, nakalinis na ng kama at nakapag-palit na rin ng mga bed sheets.. Ako nalang ang maglalaba.. May ano 'yon e..
"I'll wash that, lagay mo riyan," I ordered and dried my hair using the towel.
"We have helpe-"
"Those has stains, gusto mong ipalaba sa iba?"
"They'll just put that in the washer, it's n-"
"Really, I'll wash it," I convinced him.
"If you feel awkward about it, I'll just wash it myself, don't stress too much," he smiled. Ngayon ko lang napansin na gan'on pa rin ang kwarto niya.. Puro pictures pa rin namin. Puro picture ko pa rin. I smiled inwardly.
"Pupunta ako sa bayan," I announced.
"Why?"
"Bibili akong pills," sabi ko na parang wala lang. Umupo ako sa sofa niya at tinignan ang relo, gusto kong pumunta sa rancho ngayong araw.. Nag-text na rin naman ako kay Saidee to make sure that my brother's at work.
Balita ko simula nang umalis kami ni Ate sa La Carlota, hindi na siya tumigil kaka-trabaho.. He barely go home anymore. It's like he had sold his soul to his work. I want to talk to him, I heard.. He had been looking for me through nights and days.
Wala naman siyang ginawa sa akin para talikuran din siya.
