Atticus POV
Forcefully grabbed her into my car. I will no longer say sorry to her as I could no longer take it. Noon, nagpipigil ako at pilit na iniintindi siya dahil nga hindi niya ako maalala.
I might cause a shock onto her system, and God dammit, who knows what will happen. I had enough, and seeing her like this, I'm losing control.
"Atticus, m-may trabaho pa ako."
"You are not going anywhere, Gaige. Tapos na ako sa pagtitimpi ko at lahat. I wouldn't settle less if you will get angry and hate me for doing this because this is not you, Gaige. This is not you!" titig ko sa kanya. Pinaandar ko na ang sasakyan at wala akong direksyon kung saan kami papunta.
I want her to be away from everyone. To get away with this. I will call Xavion later and talk to him about the incident.
Naging tahimik kaming pareho at ito lang din ang pamamaraan ko para hindi na madagdagan ang galit ko sa loob.
How can I control myself when she tries to get away over and over again every time she's with me?
Halos mabaliw na ako sa kakahanap sa kanya noon, at ngayon na nakita ko na siya ay pilit kong ginagawa ang lahat ng mali ko sa kanya. I know she will understand me once she will regain her memory.
I look at her and her eyes shut, seems like she's sleeping or taking a nap. Pero nang mamasdan ko ang kamay niya ay mariin ang bawat pagpisil na ginagawa niya.
She's not relaxing and just getting nervous. I could see that.
"Saan tayo papunta, Atticus?" Sa wakas nagsalita rin siya pagkatapos nang mahabang pananahimik niya.
"Somewhere where I can keep you," igting ng panga ko at hindi ko siya tinitigan.
"Atticus. . . Ayaw ko."
My jaw clenches and I just kept on driving. Natahimik din siya at parang hinayaan na ako. It probably took three hours of driving and we reach the side of the coast. Mas maaliwalas na dito at papalubog na ang araw. Bahagya ang ginawa kong pagtitig sa kanya at nakatulog na nga siya.
Instead of taking the easiest route to her province, I ended up doing it on the other side.
Inihinto ko sa gas station ang sasakyan para sa gasolinahan, at nang matapos ay nagpatuloy lang na. I did a drive thru in a certain food chain around and grabbed some take away that we could eat along the way.
I know it may take another two hours more drive before we can reach the region of our destination.
"Can we stop for a minute? Parang nahihilo na ako."
I looked at her and nodded. Inihinto ko ang sasakyan sa isang petrol station na may pambuplikong toilet. She came out first and I look at her walking towards the toilet door. Nasa harapang bahagi lang din ang sasakyan kaya nakikita ko ang pagpasok at paglabas niya.
She came out after five minutes looking okay and came back inside.
"I bought something for us to eat. Gutom ka na ba? Gusto mo na ba'ng kumain."
She never answered. Instead, she just looked at me.
"Saan ba talaga tayo, Atticus? Don't tell me magtatanan tayong dalawa?" she smirked. And it surprise me, because this is the typical Gaige that I know.
"I can eat here. I'm easy."
Siya na mismo ang kumuha sa pagkain na nasa likurang upuan. Ipinuwesto niya ito sa kandungan niya at kumain na.
