Sebastian's Point of View
NASA LOOB ako ng sasakyan kasama si Asher gayun rin si Klyde. I saw him outside my house, "Listen, i don't want you to go near Primrose again," he seriously said, napakunot ang noo ko.
"You know that we're in a related, Asher," madiing ani ko, he sarcastically laughed. "Sebastian, you can't even look after her. . . Did you even know what happened?! Even your child is fucking involved!"
I can't even look after her. After Primrose. Even after Serene. . .
"Can you calm down? It's no one's fault, okay? Ang may kasalanan ay iyong demonyitang katulong ni Sebastian," ani ni Klyde, "I don't fucking care, Klyde. Ang gusto ko lumayo na siya kay Primrose," ani nito.
"Si Primrose—"
"She's still young. Makaka hanap pa siya ng iba," naiyukom ko ang kamao ko. ". . . You'll understand me if Serene went into this situation," ani niya atsaka lumabas ng kotse. "Asher," banggit ko sa pangalan niya, nahinto naman siya, ". . . I just want to say something. . ." dagdag ko.
"What is it?"
"You can't just decide on us," after saying that, i closed the car door and drove fast to Sta. Estrelita.
"PUTANGINA! GUSTO KO PANG MABUHAYYYYY!"
Sorry Klyde. Sana mapatawad mo ko after nitong ride na 'to.
MABILIS akong nakarating sa Sta. Estrelita, kaagad akong bumaba ng sasakyan. Kumatok ako sa pintuan at agad namang may nag bukas ng pintuan para sa akin, it's Primrose. Her eyes are kinda red and fluffy because of crying.
Pakiramdam ko dinudurog ang puso ko. I can't stand seeing her like this.
It breaks me.
Agad ko siyang niyakap, "I'm sorry. . . I'm sorry. . ." lumuluhang paghihingi ko ng tawad sa kaniya, niyakap niya ako pabalik. Ramdam ko ang pag tulo ng mga luha niya sa balikat ko. "I'm sorry, love. . . I'm sorry,"
"The fuck, man! Akala ko kukuhanin na ako ni— oh, pasensya na . . . ?"
"DADDY, i want that maid in prison. . ."
I nooded and gently put her clothes on her suitcase, "Daddy and Uncles are working on it already, Anak, don't worry i won't let this pass," i answered and kissed her forehead.
Primrose is already sleeping.
Serene and i will leave. I think Asher is right, to be honest. . . I think i'm not deserving to be with an amazing woman right here.
At the end of the day i knew she deserve someone better.
Someone who can always look after her. Someone who's younger. Someone who doesn't have a child.
Habang nag mamaneho papunta sa isa kong bahay sa Baguio ay hindi ko maiwasang maisip siya; Gising na kaya siya? Hinahanap niya kaya ako? Umiiyak na naman ba siya?
Pinunasan ko ang luha ko atsaka ko pinasadahan ng tingin si Serene, namumula ang mga mata niya. I've already explained everything to her kanina pa, and seeing her and hearing her questions brokes my heart into tiny pieces.
"Daddy, why do we have to leave? If we leave Mommy behind she'll be sad, Daddy . . ." ani ni Serene, isinara ko ang zipper ng suitcase niya atsaka ko siya binihisan.
"If we leave, Mommy will have a better life, anak. Mommy's still young and i think Daddy's just not fit to be with Mommy," nabasag ang boses ko, "Why? Mommy and Daddy loves each other, r-right?"
Pilit akong ngumiti atsaka tumango.
"Of course, Mommy and Daddy loves each other . . ."
"Then why do you think that you're not fit to be with her?" she asked, i shrugged. "You're to young to know this things, anak. If you're older, Daddy will tell and explain everything to you, okay?"
Tinignan niya si Primrose na natutulog, "Will i ever see her again?" ani niya, her tears started flowing down to her cheeks.
"And if i see her again, will i still be able to call her Mommy?"
"Daddy, i miss Mommy already. . ." pumalahaw ng iyak si Serene, inihinto ko sa gilid ang sasakyan atsaka ko siya binuhat para tumahan. "Shhh, stop crying na, Serene. Mommy wouldn't like it if she saw you crying. . ." pati ako ay napaiyak na rin.
"I'm sorry, anak. . . I'm sorry,"
Nang makarating kami sa bahay ay tulog si Serene, kaya naman inuna ko ng ibaba ang mga gamit namin atsaka ko siya binuhat at ipinasok sa loob ng sarili niyang kwarto. Pinaayos ko na ang lahat-lahat dito bago pa kami dumating kaya naman wala na akong masyadong gawain.
Tiniklop ko ang maayos ang mga damit niya at isa isang sinalansan sa cabinet niya, nakausap ko na ang parents ko about Serene. I told them that i think it's about time for me to take care of my child on my own.
Medyo nilakasan ko ang aircon atsaka ko siya kinumutan. Hinalikan ko siya sa noo atsaka ako lumabas ng kwarto niya, dumiretso ako sa kwarto ko at nahiga.
"Miss na miss na agad kita, love . . ."
NAGISING ako dahil sa paulit-ulit na pag dodoorbell ng kung sino, naiinis na bumangon ako at lumabas. Nabigla ako ng makita ko doon ang mga kaibigan ko, kumpleto sila.
Khalil, Abacceus, Agustuss and Klyde.
They're not wearing any formal clothes. Just casual.
"Anong ginagawa nyo dito?" tanong ko atsaka ko nilakihan ang bukas ng pintuan para makapasok sila, napailing na lamang ako ng tila welcome na welcome silang naupo sa sofa.
"You got a good place, man," ani ni Khalil, "Nag break kayo?" straight to the point na tanong ni Abacceus, umiling ako. "We didn't say goodbyes to each other, nope, we didn't break up. But i left," mahina ang boses ko atsaka ako umupo sa solo sofa.
"Man, you should've fight for it!"
"I want to . . ." hindi ko tinapos ang sasabihin ko, ". . . She deseve someone better," ani ko atsaka ako tumayo at dumiretso sa kusina, "What do you guys want to eat?" medyo nilakasan ko ang boses ko, "Anything!"
Habang nag luluto ako ay may maliit na yumakap sa akin mula sa likod, "Daddy, i want milk . . ." napangiti ako atsaka ko hinarap si Serene. "Good afternoon, anak. . ." ani ko, binuhat ko siya at iniupo sa isang silya. Binalikan ko ang niluluto ko atsaka ko pinatay ang kalan.
Dumiretso ako at nag timpla ng gatas ni Serene sa baso, pagkatapos ay agad ko rin iyon iniabot sa kaniya.
Akmang mag sasalita ako ng tumunog ang telepono ko na siyang nasa bulsa ko.
Someone's calling.
Agad ko iyong kinuha sa bulsa ko at agad na kumabog ang dibdib ko ng makita ko ang Caller ID.
My Love Calling. . .
Prim. . .
