Scar In The Bone (Completed)

Chapter 110

Chapter 110

The next scene I've been encountered was that on how Lily rose up from her bed, yawning like she had slept for an entire week. Inunat niya ang kanyang katawan kasabay ng paglingon sa kinaroroonan namin. Binawi ko ang aking kamay at saka ko 'yon niligay sa likod ko upang hindi niya 'yon makita. Until now, I am ashamed from the thing I did on her. I hurt Lily that I took her life just because of that stupid Darkus.

Iniwas ko ang tingin sa kanya nang mapansin ko ang malalim na titig niya sa akin. I was about to speak to tell her sorry about what I did on her but it turned out she's hugging me tightly while she's crying. Napatingin ako sa kinaroroonan ng mga kasama ko. They are standing next to the bed, where I and Lily were hugging each other. Celina and Leo were placed in the corner; Celina bumped herself on Leo's shoulder while she was looking at where we were, smiling. Litha was with Morgan and Aphro, who were beside the two. Mother and father were exactly at the front of the door.

I couldn't see any reactions on my mother's face. Pero nakangiti si ama sa aming dalawa nang tunguhin ko ulit siya ng tingin. He keeps smiling for almost two minutes, or three before he withdraws it, lalo na noong tumunog ang pinto kasabay ng unti-unting pagbukas niyon.

Nina is entering the room. She's wearing a dark green tunica shirt with a lace around her waist, and vines that are coiling into her arms until it reaches her hands, which are covered with a safe, white gauze. Her gaze voyages around the room, and stops when she saw mother that is looking at her, too.

Lily withdrew herself from me. She looks at me, asking what was happened after the war. I couldn't speak about it at parang napipi na ako nang tuluyan, nang tanungin niya sa akin kung kumusta ang batang nasa sinapupunan ko. Hinaplos pa niya ang aking tiyan, checked the birthmark on my wrist but withdrew her reaction on her face when she noticed I was looking behind her. Lily turned around. Hindi ko man makita kung ano ang reaksyon niya ngayon, alam kong gulat siya mula sa kanyang mga itinanong sa akin.

My heart skipped its beat when I found out mother was staring at me. Hindi ko kayang gumalaw sa aking kinaroroonan. Nararamdaman ko pa kung paano lumabas ang sariwang dugo sa kamay ko, na siyang lalong nagpakaba sa dibdib ko. Hindi naman ganito ang nararamdaman ko noon at wala talaga akong balak na maging ganito ang kalalabasan ng reaksyon ng katawan ko. But the way how my mother looks at me, it feels like I am slowly sinking on the tiles, making me so uncomfortable.

Lily once reached me again, feel sorry about what she had asked me earlier. "I didn't know," bulong niya sa akin. Nginitian ko lamang siya nang matabang bago ko iniwas ang tingin sa kanya. When I looked at mother, I saw her walking out of the room. Naramdaman ko ang paghawak ni Lily sa kabilang kamay ko kung saan walang kahit na anong sugat, kaya't napatingin ako sa kanya. She's smiling at me bitterly, massaging my palm with her thumb as she says, "follow her. Ito na ang pagkakataon upang malaman niya ang bagay na 'yan."

I bit the bottom of my lip. "Thank you, mother," bulong ko sa kanya saka ako tumango-tango. When Lily removed her hands off of me, my feet started to step through the doorway. I even looked at father, who was only smiling on me before I left the room. Gusto ko sanang isama si ama patungo sa kinaroroonan ni ina upang malaman niya rin ang kalagayan ko subalit hindi ko na nagawa pa nang makalabas na ako. Nawalan ako ng lakas ng loob na gawin 'yon. Mother is mad at me, at kapag sumama pa si ama ay baka mas lalong lumala ang sitwasyon.

This was actually my choice, fate did this thing to reform me, after Sheldon left the world behind. Hindi ko naman sinasabing tinatanggap ko nang nawala si Sheldon sa tabi ko. But at least, mayroong isang batang naiwan sa aming dalawa, kahit na wala siya. I don't know how to react, I don't really know how to handle this thing pero wala, eh. Hindi ko naman masisisi si Darkus. I was the one who deserve to blame about what happened to him. Dahil tama nga si Darkus, hindi ko chini-check si Sheldon kung ayos lang ba siya o may iniindang karamdaman.
