“Engineer! Uuwi na raw bebe mo bukas.” Kai greeted me, of course he learned that news from Vixen. The one who ghosted her before who turned out to have an amnesia after being a victim of a hit and run case.
I raised a brow shaking my head as I went inside my car, not that I am rude, I am just into a hurry. I heard him chuckling as I maneuver the car.
And true enough, Maurice went home eight weeks after that. On my mom’s death anniversary. I stared at my mom's tomb with a bitter smile plastered in my face. I can remember it clearly, that she ask me for a breakup after I received mom’s award.
It was too painful for me, loosing the women I love on the exact same day. The other was taken away from me by the universe and the other was taken away from me because of people's greediness.
But that pain is incomparable to the pain I have to bear watching her sleeping with tubes attached to her fragile body. Scars, wounds, and bruises all over her body.
“Sorry, umalis kasi siya habang nasa stage kami. The dean called our attention and she was with your mom.” Kai tried to calm me down but nothing could ever help me be.
“I asked you to, was that too hard to look after her?” My voice trembled.
“Bro like he said, we are unaware, we are too far away to where it happened. Bigla siyang nawala.” Klein defended themselves.
“Even so—”
“Can you stop? Malay ba naming mangyayari? Hindi nga namin alam na kayang gawin iyon ng secretary ni Dean kung siya man ang gumawa!” Zia snapped, Kira went to her to stop her, Zyan looked at me in remorse.
“Yeah, malay niyo.” I echoed before storming out of the room.
“Wes!” Kira stalked me. She looked at me apologetically and I gave her a small smile. This woman right here, has been battling ceaselessly against people like those who hurt my beloved.
“Hmm?”
“She’s still at large.” I know that, and actually, I asked Mr. Relis to pay for someone to bring her to the police station. My parents agreed to it to. Muntik pa nga kaming magkagulo sa bahay dahil dito.
Mommy Mandy said it's enough that she's living under my roof but that wasn't enough for me. And that was the very first time I talked back to her. Kahit na noon pa man hindi ko siya gusto para kay daddy, wala lang akong choice.
Dad loves her, and she brought back the smiles my dad lost when my biological mother passed away five years ago. I thought back then, my dad really loved my mom but when he went back with someone in his arms, I realized, that maybe it does not guarantee a lifetime love.
Not because you love her, you will remain in love if she is no longer around, time will come that you would find it in someone's arms.
I watch my dad preparing Mommy Mandy’s steak, Kuya and Ate are also busy doing theirs. I sighed heavily before proceeding to eat my food.
