THE MENACE: EAST UNIVERSITY Book 2

Epilogue (Part I)

Misha Maxine's POV

Losing someone you love is really painful. It felt like it shattered your whole existence. The pain of losing someone might gone for the meantime but you will grieve forever. The wounds of losing them might heal but you will never be the same. Iyan ang masakit na katotohanan na kahit anong gawin mo ay hindi mo matatakbuhan.

Marahan kong inilapag ang dala kong bulaklak sa puntod ni Mom na nasa harapan ko naupo rito.

"Hi,Mom.. I am sorry if it takes me month to finally visits you." I started.

"Nag-ipon pa ako ng lakas ng loob para bisitihin ka. Ayoko kasing pumunta at makita mo akong mahina. I know you won't be happy seeing me in that way."

Papa Yuan tried to saved Mom pero huli na. Tumagos ang dalawang bala ng baril sa dibdib ni Mom na naging dahilan ng pagkamatay niya. Apat na buwan akong nagluksa sa pagkawala niya. I didn't even get the chance to tell her how much i love her and how much i am sorry for everything i have done. I am not blaming anyone,  because that's what she told me. Sa loob ng apat na buwan na 'yon ay sinubukan kong maging maayos pero hindi ko magawa. Walang gabing hindi ako umiyak tuwing maaalala ko siya. Not until i saw her on my dreams. She was smiling at me and she hugged me as if she's telling me that everything will be alright. That's the time i told myself na kailangan kong magpatuloy dahil 'yon ang gusto ni Mom para sa akin.

Felicity was also killed. After niyang mabaril si Mom ay nabaril din siya ni Dad. Bumagsak na rin ng tuluyang ang buong Pentagon at nahuli lahat ng mga taong may koneksyon sa kanila. Wrozen came back to us and told us everything. Hindi siya nawalan ng ala-ala. Mom and him planned everything inorder to take the Pentagon down. He said sorry if they lie to us na naintindihan naman ng lahat.

"How are you, Mom? Masaya ka ba diyan? Hindi mo man lang ba namimiss ang pagiging pasaway ko?" I chuckled softly.

"I miss you, Mom. Miss na miss na kita...." I didn't bother to wipe the tears on my face. Naramdaman ko ang malamig na hangin na tila yumakap sa aking katawan.

"Is that you, Mom?Miss mo rin ako 'no?" Pagbibiro ko.

"Don't worry. I'll visit you often." I added.

Naramdaman ko ang pagvibrate ng aking telepono mula sa aking bulsa kaya agad ko itong kinuha at sinagot ang tawag.

"Hello, Papa Yuan?"

"Mish,your Dad. He's looking for you." Mahinang sambit nito na mas lalong nakapagpatulo ng aking luha.

"W-Where is he, Papa?"

"Your Mom and Dad's favorite place in EU." Papa Yuan answered.

Sa lahat ng nasaktan sa pagkawala ni Mom ay si Dad ang lubos na nasaktan. But he didn't show it. He always comforted me kahit alam kong mas masakit para sa kaniya ang pagkawala ni Mom.

"I'll be there, Papa." I said and ended the call.

"Grabe kayong dalawa ano, Mom? Couple goals talaga?" Pagbibiro ko ngunit ramdam ko ang sakit sa aking dibdib.

"Hindi man lang pinaabot ng one year, Mom? Ang rupok naman ni Dad sa'yo kaya pati sa kamatayan susunod niya." i added crying hard.

Two months after my mother died Dad was diagnosed of stage 4 lung cancer. He told us na alam niya na ito two years ago but didn't even tell my mom. Bumagsak ang katawan ni Dad at hindi na rin siya makapaglakad. I told him na ipapagamot ko siya but he refused. He told me na he wants to be with her na at hayaan ko na siya sa gusto niya.
