KABANATA 8

“Magpapalit lang ako saglit ng damit,” saad ni Alpas habang nakangiti sa kaniyang mga co-teachers.

Ginamit niya ang mga salitang kaniyang binitawan bilang palusot at kinuha ang blanket na naka-lagay sa sofa—dinala niya 'yon sa kwarto ni Ethan.

When he entered, Ethan was sitting by the window and he looked at Alpas who was now approaching him.

“Okay ka lang diyan? Pupwede ka naman makisali sa amin,” sabi ni Alpas.

Ethan took the blanket from Alpas, he wrapped himself with it and inhaled Alpas’ scent while gazing at the male in front of him.

“Text me, if you need anything. Okay? Mukhang mapapahaba ang kwentuhan namin niyan,” sambit ni Alpas habang kinakati ang leeg niya.

Ethan smiled and he whispered, “Okay. Have fun.”

Alpas smiled back and he was about to go back to the living room when Ethan stood up and grabbed his hand.

“Pahiram kita ng shirt?” saad ni Ethan.

Napatingin sa kanya si Alpas at bakas sa kanyang mukha ang pagkalito. Natawa si Ethan at hinalikan ang noo ni Alpas. Tapos binuksan niya ang kaniyang backpack para kumuha ng t-shirt.

“Sabi mo kasi magpapalit ka ng damit, nabigla nga ako bakit dito ka pumasok eh,” sabi ni Ethan at bakas pa ang tuwa sa kaniyang boses.

“Narinig mo yun?” tanong ni Alpas habang namumula ang kanyang mga pisngi.

Ethan hummed in agreement and said, “Now, lift your arms for me, love.”

Alpas’ blushed deepened. “Kaya ko naman magpalit mag-isa,” aniya. Kinuha niya ang damit sa kamay ni Ethan at nagkulong sa banyo.

Pagkalabas ni Alpas, tinitigan siya agad ni Ethan.

“L-lalabas na ako,” sabi ni Alpas.

“Okay po, enjoy,” Ethan replied with a satisfied smile.

Nagmamadaling lumabas si Alpas at natawa na lang si Ethan sa kaniya. Habang nakakulong sa sariling kwarto si Ethan, naisipan niyang ayusin ang kanyang mga gamit.

Nilagay niya isa-isa ng maayos ang kaniyang mga damit sa cabinet. Nilagay pa niya ang iba niyang gamit, gaya ng—orasan at mga libro sa bedside table.

Mahigit isang oras lang nang matapos siya, nahiga ito at nagkumot.

Ethan closed his eyes and thought that a lot happened in a day. He focused on the middle-aged man who threatened him with a knife. He thought about finding that man and interrogate him but at the same time, he feared what that man can do. He looks so experienced that made Ethan to drop the idea.

Maybe a guy like that man is the reason why he doesn't have his biological parents with him right now? Or maybe not.

He curled himself into a ball and he sniffed Alpas’ scent on his blanket to soothe himself. He wanted to recover his lost memories so bad. After a few minutes, he fell asleep.

“Sa wakas, malapit na ang maikli nating bakasyon!” sabi ni Kiara.

“May summer job ka namang pinasukan,” sabi ni Edwin.

“Huwag ka ngang panira,” sagot ni Kiara.

Tumawa lang si Alpas at uminom ng beer. He only took a small sip because his alcohol tolerance was very low.
