DOOR OF SMILE

EPISODE 14

"Bakit kailan, ba last mo ng makapunta ka dito?"

Tinanong ko sa kanya, kasi ako lagi naman akong napunta dito nung high school hanggang college kasama si nana at iba pa naming friends, minsan ko pa nga nakitang may ka date dito si kuya eh.. I really miss my good old memories.

" When I was 10, All of them thought that I will die" - he said and laugh. Para siguro hindi awkward. I get it.

YURO POV

I have a lung cancer when I was ten, dahil sa napapabayaan kung tuyo ang pawis ko. Napuno ng tubig ang lungs dahil sa mga pawis na natuyo.

Kasali kasi ako dati sa soccer team, and that was the first time I meet ryuo. He's the one who taught me to be a great and better soccer player. He's the one who understand me.

In that year, my mother also hospitalized dahil sa pagiging highblood niyang tao, ninerbyos kasi siya nung nalaman niyang may lung cancer ako. Kung hindi sinugod si mama sa hospital hindi namin mamalaman na may leukemia pala siya.

Nasa iisang kwarto lang kami ni mama kaya minsan nag uusap kaming dalawa sa hospital.kapag wala si papa para mag bantay samin, but we have are maids.

Until may birthday come Dec.25...

My first time at amusement park, ang daming mga tao. May balloons, cotton candy at mga rides na naeenjoy ng mga tao. I'm very very happy that time hindi mawala sa mga labi ko ang saya. Kahit sobrang protective ni papa at yaya lagi akong pinaaalahan na 'huwag tumakbo'.

Pagkatapos namin sa amusement park excited akong bumalik sa hospital habang may ice-cream pang kinakain.

But then, when the time I open the door of my room I saw many doctors and nurses assisting my mom, my dad also shock and go inside immediately pero pinaalis din siya ng nurse and they shut the door.. Biglang bumagal ang mundo ko hindi ko alam ang gagawin.

Sinubukan kung hawakan ang aking mukha, dahil pakiramdam ko lumuluha ako pero hindi nabasa ang palad ko. Kaya tumingi ako sa pinaka malapit na salamin na nakita ko sa pader ng hallway.

Pagtingin ko doon, wala akong kahit anong butil ng luha. Wala akong kahit anong emosyon sa mukha ko. Anong nangyayari....

SATI Pov

Napaawa ang labi ko ng ikiwento niya yun, kaya pala ni hindi ko man siya nakikitang galit, pero yung tono boses niya dinig na galit. Ang kanyang emosyon ay nasa kanyang mga mata at salita..

"Kaya siguro nasa hikikomori building ka parin" - I said.

"Exactly" - he said at sumandal sa upuan, saka niya inilagay ang braso sa edge ng bintana. He look freaking hot.

Para ko siyang boss na nagalit at nasa serious business. Natahimik kami sandali dahil pareho kaming napatanaw sa city view, I can see peaceful city from above but if you're in low I can see toxicity on the city.

Pag kababa namin sa farewell, we decide to go home. While walking looking for the exit gate. I just think kung tama ba na i bring up ko yung topic about his dad? Or hindi na lang, baka kasi masira pa mood niya.

Palabas na sana kami ng gate ng may biglang may  papumutok na nang gagaling sa kalangitan, we turned back and see the clear sky with colorful fireworks. Wow ha, nung lagi kaming nag gagala ng mga friends ko dito wala silang pa fireworks, pero ngayon meron na? Pinagkaitan yata kami ng may-ari noon.

While I'm staring the fireworks above, I can feel that yuro stare at me! It's feel me so nervous and heat at the same time, feeling ko nag blush na ako. stop staring at me yuro san! Matutunaw ako nyan eh.

Before we leave at amusement park, he make me face him. He held my cheekbone, while our eyes staring each other. I don't know what to say. I just want to stare at him. He suddenly give me a soft kiss. There's no other people around us because all of them go in inside, so it just me and yuro.

"Thank you" - he whispered

"See you tomorrow" - I said to him, before leaving the building.

It almost 9pm nang makaalis ako sa building but maabotan ko pa yung train or yung bus, pero siguro bus na lang sasakyan ko para mas madali. Nagulat ako ng biglang sumulpot si doc.

"I heard the news" - he said it to me. "Are you alright?" - dagdag niya pa.

"yeah, I'm fine knowing everyone is safe right now" - I answered, by walking slowly.

"I can't believe she did it she's such a young girl" - he said again, with his angry expression.

"lahat ng tao magagawa, yun wala yun sa edad nasa mindset yun" - I said to calm him down.

He look to me and stop himself from talking, I think he realize something.

"Why we shouldn't be nice until our last breath, wala din namang magandang dulot yung pagiging krimenal" - he said again. "I can't believe, devils around akala ko talaga yung demonyo may sunggay, pero pwede din pala yung maganda siya at walang sunggay" - he said.

"I think, she didn't choose to be like that. Society just fucked her up" - I said to defend her.

Sa dami ng pinag-usapan namin hindi ko na namalayan, na nakarating na pala ako sa bus stop kaya naman nag paalam na si doc, he really talk to me pero kahit kailan hindi ko na tanong name niya. Strange.

Paguwi ko ng bahay, nag shower kaagad ako. I wear my pair of pajama saka bumaba patungon kusina para kumain. I saw kuya eating alone so he invite me.

"You like him?" - kuya suddenly ask, kaya malapit ko ng matapon yung tubig na iniinom ko.

"What?! Like? Who?" - I confuse to ask.

"don't be silly little sis, I just witnessed all" - he suddenly do smirk. nang aasar na naman ampota.

"How's elena?" - I suddenly ask, to change the topic.

"The media, immediately know what happened and so the news spread easily other people said 'we are heroes' and 'some said, we deserve to save her' I really don't know if people care or what, I can't understand society" - he said and continue to chew he's food.

"Is she awake?" - I ask again.

"Go find out on yourself, I have a lot of work to do, so see you around" - he said before he stand up and go straight up to his office.

I sights heavily hoping for her to wake up, ako sana yung nasa kalagayan kung andoon lang ako sa condo nun, ako sana ang hinuli at nasaktan. Pero bakit siya? Mas maayos na sakin kung ako yun.. Pero bakit yung tao pang walang ka malay malay?!

I was mad at my self.
