6 months later (continuation of flashback)
DET (Bea's mom)
"Isabel, diba sabi ko sa'yo blue ang color ng toothbrush mo? Bakit green yung binuksan mo"
Nagpapalit kasi kami ng toothbrush every two months. Blue is her favorite color, kaya yun ang sinabi ko sa kanyang kunin niyang toothbrush niya
"Didn't you say green, mom?" Bea
"Never mind, ok lang. Have you called your kuya Loel already? Hindi pa siya umuuwi"
"Kuya Loel? Why? Where is he, mom?" Bea
"Ano? Hindi mo alam? Diba sabi niya aalis siya with his friends"
"Ah really? Sorry" Bea
I feel something is different about Isabel. A few weeks ago, I noticed that she quickly forgets, especially that she no longer looks for Jho.
LOEL (Bea's brother)
The next day we went to the hospital to have Bea checked. Kasama rin namin si Caitlin pero nasa labas sila ni Bea
"Based here on the results of tests we ran awhile ago, an MRI and a CT scan. *hissed* Well, I expected this to happen; she's having memory loss. Ms. de Leon got amnesia." neurologist
Hindi yung father ni Caitlin ang neurologist ni Bea kasi neurosurgeon ang father ni Caitlin
"But how? She's been just fine for the past few months" mom Det
"Is she having extreme depression?" neurologist
Mom and I looked at each other, because what the doctor was saying was right. In truth, we know how Bea loves Jhoana. And that's what caused her depression-her love
Binigay naman na ni mom ang phone ni Bea, but all of Jhoana's social media accounts were blocked
"Why? Is there a connection with depression?" mom Det
"Yes, there is a link between depression and memory loss. Another thing is that she got a head injury as well" neurologist
"It's curable, right?" mom Det
Neurologist disagreed "Recovering memories is rare. Amnesia can be permanent, but only you can help her through her suffering. You are Isabel's family; you know what to do" neurologist
The neurologist offered treatments din naman
CAITLIN
"Hmmp na blockkk"
"Yes! Win this game Choco Mucho!" Bea shouts
"Shhh, Isabel lower down your voice"
Nanonood kasi kami ng pvl live dito sa phone niya tapos ang ingay niya
"Heyyyy you're not mom" Bea
"Haha sorry na, hindi ba pwede mag sorry?"
Bea hates it when I call her Isabel haha
Bea pouts
"Sus wag kang magpa cute, Isabel"
"Ehhh naman ehhh" parang bata na sabi ni Bea
"Bea alam mo, mas malala ka pa sa baby"
"Baby mo haha" Bea wiggles her brows
Mabait pala talaga si Bea, napaka sungit lang nung una. Good thing at naging close na kami hehe
