My Brothers And I (SanSiVin)

PART 72

Nakaupo ako ng apartment ng umiiyak.

Ang tapang ko kanina eh tapos ngayon umiiyak ako. Never akong mapapagod na pagtanggol ang pamilya ko sa ibang tao. Hindi ko din kailangan ng kaibigan na ijujudge ako.

I won't settle for less.

In the next morning.

I don't feel fine. But I don't know who to call. I don't know who I wanted to comfort me.

I don't have energy to talk with people. I don't even want to hear anyone's voice. And I'm afraid I don't like the way I sigh.

I feel tired and suffocated. Everything's getting heavy and darker. I wanted to tell my Mama that I need her hug, but I don't want her to feel worried.

It just surprised me and bumped me that I couldn't get up every morning without a heavy heart. If anyone here knows comfort more than I do, please make the pain stop.

SANDRO'S POV

I went downstairs to take some breakfast before I go to the Congress.

"Sandro."

"Mom?"

"I can't contact your sister." mom worriedly said.

"Why?"

"I don't know that's why I'm telling you. Baka you know why?"

"I don't know mom either, but I'll try to get in touch with her."

"Okay I have to go then. Update me okay? I feel worried about your sister."

"Okay mom."

I try to call Sirene but she didn't answer.

Hanggang sa makarating ako sa work but I can't contact her yet.

What happens to you Sisi...

Namomorblema na ako dito hanggang sa pumasok sa isip ko si Tara. Naalala ko na minsan nakakasama siya ni Sirene, may contact parin sila sa isa't isa kaya nga nagtaka ako eh pero wala naman akong magagawa. Ayoko naman mawala yung friendship nila dahil Tara and I broke up, mas okay narin yun at least may ate si Sirene sa London.

I try to contact Tara hoping na sagutin niya call ko.

"Sandro?"

"Ah hey Tara yeah."

"Why did you called?"

"Ahmm I simply want to know whether you are aware of the reason why Sirene hasn't responded our calls and isn't reachable. We are very worried about her."

"Sorry Sands, but I'm also unsure. Yesterday, I tried to call her, but she didn't pick up. I assumed she was simply busy."

"But Mom though, also makes an effort to get in touch with her. However, despite her busy schedule, she still returned our mother's calls."

"You want me to check her on her apartment?"

"Can you please Tara? we're all so feel worried about her."

"Okay Sands I will take care of it. I will update you after."

"Thank you Tara."

Sana Sirene you're okay and safe.

SIRENE'S POV

I can't get up, i'm not really so well. Feeling ko lahat mainit sakin sobrang bigat din ng pakiramdam ko.

I try to get up, naglakad ako palabas ng room ko kahit na nahihilo ako. Hanggang sa may nakinig na naman akong ingay sa pilig. Mga ingay na mabibingi talaga ako, mga boses ng tao. They all judging me and telling me a lot of accusations.

Napaupo ako sa sahig at tinakpak ko yung tenga ko tapos napapikit ako.

Ayoko na marining yung mga yun, ayoko na.

"Stop! Please! ayoko na! please stop!"

Nagulat naman ako ng biglang may lumapit sakin.

"Sirene!"

"Si I'm here! I am here!"

But I'm continuing saying what I'm staying.

"Sirene! it's me Tara! I'm here!"

Hanggang sa niyakap niya ako and caressing my back.

"I'm here Sirene, It's gonna be okay." she said habang yakap niya ako.

Nawala yung ingay at si Tara lang yung nakikita ko dito. Yung takot kanina ay napalitan ng sobrang iyak.

"They're all hated me." I said.

Iniharap niya ako sa kanya.

"What happened?"

Naikwento ko yung nangyare sakin sa event ng friend ko. She knows the story of my family.

"Are you also hate me Tara?"

"Sirene, listen to me I already know the story of your family. Your brother Sandro already told me."

"So you're also hate us?"

"Because of the past, I won't hate you and your brother. Sirene, you are not to blame for what happened before. Perhaps there was a purpose or reason to how life turned out."

"My friends discovered out they didn't even properly communicate with me to ask, thus it was simple for them to judge me."

"I don't know Sirene either, but I know it's not easy to accept that. Maybe your friends are just shocked. Give them time to think about everything. Because a true friends is willing to listen to their friend."

"Tara, I'm feeling scuffed. I don't want the day to come when the day isn't favorable for us anymore. The day won't be on our side no matter when it is. I hope for the day when everyone will be aware of the truth."

Tara hugged me.

"My parents never taught me to seek vengeance on those who step on us, therefore I don't want to do that either. But the only thing I hope for is that people will begin to listen to us. At least at times, they realized that we were right and that our viewpoint was justified."

"The day will come, Sirene, and it will be in your favor as well. Not right now, but I have hope that it will. So, apply what your parents taught you. Don't give up hope for a chance that the day would be on your side because you are not always oppressed and criticized. I'll be among many who are happy for you and your family when it happens. Just keep going, Si I'm here for you. Tara will always be here."

I hugged Tara.

"Thank you ate Tara."
