LAMIA’S POV
“Papa! I’m ready!” Sigaw ko at bumaba papuntang sala. Hinihintay pa kasi ako ni Papa matapos sa pag aayos dahil ihahatid niya raw ako sa school.
Well, I’m already eighteen na.
Legal age na ako. But still, hinahatid pa rin ako ni, Papa. Dahil natatakot daw siya na baka may mangyari sa akin.
Kaya ko na ang sarili ko.
Pero hindi ko masisisi si Papa roon. He loves me and I love him too. Kaming dalawa lang ang nanirahan dito at napapalibutan pa ng mga punuan. It’s refreshing to live here, you’ll have a peace of mind here.
“You’re done?” Tanong ni Papa sa akin na ikinatango ko naman.
Lumabas na siya kaya sumunod ako sa kaniya. Pumasok na rin ako sa sasakyan at binuhay na ni Papa ang sasakyan niya.
At my very young age, I lost my Mom. I’m still five years old that time. I can still remember, all of it. Hinding-hindi iyon mawawala sa aking isipan.
I missed her so much.
Sobrang bata ko pa noon nang mawala siya.
Hanggang ngayon umaasa pa rin akong babalik siya kahit alam ko namang hindi na talaga.
Flashback
“Momma? What's happening?” I asked my, Mother. She's trembling, she's scared to see the outside.
“Momma? Why are you scared? Are you okay, Momma? What's happening—”
Binuhat ako ni Mama at tinignan ako sa aking mga mata. “You need to hide, baby. We will play... Hide and seek.” She said at pilit na ngumiti sa aking harapan.
Dinala ako ni Mama sa basement at ibinaba ako, at lumuhod siya sa aking harapan. “I’m going to find you here, okay? Mag tago ka rito sa basement. I promise to find you as soon as possible.” She said and she kissed my forehead.
“Momma... Are you okay?” I pouted. “It seems like you’re scared, Momma. We need to find, Dada!” I shouted at dahil doon ay napaiyak ako.
“Shhh... Parating na si Dada mo. Just hide, okay? May titignan lang ako sa labas and after that kukunin na kita rito. Understood?” I nodded after she said that to me.
Tumayo na si Mama at binuhat ako at inilagay sa madilim na parte ng basement. I’m really scared of what's happening right now. I don’t know what to do.
“You are safe here, just be quiet, hm? And I'm going to find you, okay?”
I nodded, “Yes, Momma. Comeback please, Momma...”
“I promise, sweetie.” At tumayo na siya at mabilis na lumabas ng basement. Narinig kong nilock iyon ni, Mama.
I have nothing to do kaya naka upo lang ako at niyakap ang aking sarili.
I’m crying silently. I want to see what's happening in the outside. I want to check her. I want to help her.
But Momma said “Just quiet.” — kaya ginawa ko iyon. I’m really scared right now. I’m not scared because I'm alone in the basement, I’m scared for my, Momma.
