Phase 38
Brother
"You put me in a hospital, really?" gigil kong sabi ky Praxedes.
"Look, I'm sorry, apo. Nataranta ako at aksidente kong natawagan ang binatang Alvezo." pagdadahilan niya. Napapikit ako sa inis at bumuntong hininga.
"There's no Sean anymore, you hear me? He's prohibited to go to my mansion or your mansion! Just don't let us see each other again!" galit kong sigaw at padabog na umakyat ng hagdan. Maghapon akong nagkulong sa kwarto but this time kumain na ako. Around 6 pm nang kinatok ako ni Praxedes.
"Apo.. uh may bisita ka sa baba" alinlangan pa nitong sabi.
"Who?" tanong ko.
"Uh.. ang binatang Alvezo" agad akong bumangon. Marahas kong binuksan ang pinto. Nagulat naman si Praxedes.
"I said no Sean anymore." mariin kong sabi.
"Nakalimutan kong maglagay ng bantay eh.." sabi niya sa maliit na boses.
"That's bullshit!" sigaw ko.
"Nasa baba siya.." napapikit ako at napahawak sa sentido ko.
Walang sabi sabi akong bumaba. Agad na tumayo si Sean nang makalapit ako.
"Cian—"
"Leave." putol ko at malamig siyang tinignan.
"Here's your money. Bia won't take that." mahinahon niyang sabi.
What?! He came all the way here just to return the money! Scheisse!
"You should've just thrown that away." malamig kong sabi.
"Cian—"
"I said leave" tiim-bagang kong sabi.
"I want to talk to you." mahinahon niya pa ring sambit.
"You don't want to see me this morning. And now what? You want to talk to me."
"Please, Cian.."
"I said no! Just fucking leave—" naputol ang dapat kong sigaw nang bigla niya akong niyakap. Nagpupumiglas ako.
"Shh.. calm down, baby.. please" bulong niya at hinaplos haplos ang buhok ko. Tumigil ako sa pagpiglas at hinayaan siyang yakapin ako.
"Let me go.." humigpit ang yakap niya sa bulong ko. Naramdaman ko rin ang pag-iling niya.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean what I said earlier. I was just worried." panunuyo niya. I can hear my heart beating so mad again. But no.. I have to push him away.
Pilit kong kinalas ang pagkakayakap niya sa akin at malamig siyang tinignan.
"Go home and don't come back" malamig kong sinabi. Aalis na sana ako sa harap niya nang masuyo niyang hinawakan ang siko ko.
"I am in love with you.." seryosong sabi niya. Yumuko siya at nahanap niya ang mga mata ko. He then smiled.
"I'm sorry if you saw me being kissed and hugged by my ex. It was my fault. I didn't move because I was shocked. I'm sorry. It won't happen again." mahinahong sabi niya at inangat ang kamay niya para haplusin ang pisngi ko.
