CHAPTER 26
Counter.
Halos buong araw yata ako nakasimangot dahil sa sinabi ni Ice. Walang hiya 'yun! May balak sigurong ituloy ang kasal niya. May pa 'You're going to be part of the family, Sanchez' pa siyang nalalaman. Siraulo talaga!
Ice paid for the billing. Nakalabas na kami nila Rejun and Resa. Still Ice is volunteering to drive us home. Hindi na lang ako nakipagtalo, baka mamaya kung ano-ano pang sasabihin nito sa harap ng aking mga kapatid.
"Thank you, Ice. I'll wire you the money. You can message me your account number." Sabi ko nang makalabas na ang kambal sa sasakyan ni Ice.
"Sure." Sabi nito nang nakangiti.
"Anong meron at malapad ang ngiti mo?" Iritado kong tanong.
"Nothing. I'll go ahead."
Umalis na siya at pinaharorot na niya ang kanyang sasakyan. Napairap na lang ako.
Nang makapasok na ako sa bahay, diretso muna ako sa kwarto ni Resa. I saw her lying in bed already at nagbabasa pa ng libro. Agad niya naman itong tinago nang mapansin ako.
"Ate!" She smiled at me. I remained on my serious look.
"Anong ginawa mo kanina?"
She's so vulnerable. Takot na takot ako kapag may mangyayari sa mga kapatid ko. Parang gusto kong ipadeport agad ang taong mananakit sa kanila.
"I was just performing in PE subject." Simple niyang sagot. Kumunot naman ang noo ko,
"You played some outdoor activities?"
Umiling naman siya, "Hindi ah! To be honest, parang nalipasan lang ako ng gutom. Quarter to 12 na kasi 'yun na subject. I was hungry, so I suspected why I am out of conscious suddenly." Paliwanag nito. Ngunit nanatili lamang akong nakatingin sa kanya.
I surveyed her reaction. "Ganoon ba? Sige matulog ka na. Stop reading already. You should sleep early to recharge your energy." I said then was about to close the door but hear her saying my name.
"Bakit?" I turned against her,
"Are you okay?" She asked worriedly, "I saw the news.. Uhm, I am shocked to see those, Ate."
I flashed my smile to her, "I'm okay. That usually happens in a relationship. People broke up. Wag mo na akong alalahanin."
I left her room the moment I close the door. Tumango-tango lang si Resa. Siguro marami pa 'yung mga katanungan, pero nag-aalinlangang magtanong. I don't think I could share my throughts right now. Gusto ko na lang sarilihin ang lahat as of today. I don't want to let other people involve with my emotions.
