Uncontrollable Obsession

Kapitulo 32

Kinakapitan

I slowly opened my eyes from that long and strange dream. It happened again and I feel that the dreams I had before and that dream feel like they happened in real life.

Natigilan ako nang may pumasok sa isip ko. Maybe that wasn't really a dream? It might be part of my memories? I need to consult my doctor alone, because now I'm so sure that I've been dealing with serious illness. I feel like there are things I don't know. Baka tama akong may tinatago si Mama sa akin. I need to go back. There is something I missed and I need to find out what it is.

I moved my body and was stopped by the pain I felt. Halos buo kong katawan masakit igalaw. This may be side effects of the medicines.

If it's true that I'm Yvrih's mother, she should have been in my dream, not Zekeil.

I was forcing myself to remember because of what Yvrih said. Wait... I still don't know why he ignored me when he heard her. May naisip ba siya tungkol d'on? Sigurado na akong may katotohanan ang sinabi ng bata pero ang inakto ni Zekeil... I can't understand. I need to see her now and also Katriyah. But before that, I need to get out of here to do what I want and answer all the questions.

I looked around inside. This is great. I was back in the room of their mansion. Mabilis akong napabalikwas nang magsink-in sa akin na nakabalik na nga ako. Akmang tatayo na ako nang bigla kong naramdaman ang sakit sa bahagi ng ulo ko. Napadaing ako at kinapa kung tama ba ang hinala ko. I was right. I got a wound when I lost consciousness.

Wait– lost consciousness. Then it means I'm really ill? And I'm lucky this time because I didn't forget anything?! Thinking about that put me in deep thought. I stopped again at what I realized. So this make sense now. Every time I try to remember, I lose consciousness. If that's the case, I will believe everything I dream and think from now on. I won't slide a single. There are scenes that I forget. I really wonder if my dreams are included.

I got out of bed when I was finally able to balance myself. Nanghihina ang katawan ko at noon ko pa lang napansin ang suwero. Mabilis ko itong hinablot at tinapon. Wala akong malay nang nakarating dito pero isa lang ang nasa isip ko, ang tanungin si Zekeil kung ano ang totoo. May alam din siya. Iyon ang kutob ko. I feel all of that is not just a weird dream.

Sa balkon ako nagtungo at tinanaw ang kapaligiran. Tahimik yata sa ibaba. Umalis na kaya ang mga kaibigan ni Zekeil? Gusto kong tanungin si Trievin kasi pakiramdam ko may alam siya.

I held on tight to the railing so I wouldn't lose balance. My head still throbs from time to time. I touched it for a moment and checked if it was wet but when I looked at my hand to see if there was blood, I didn't see any. To make sure, I faced the glass door and examined myself there. I just noticed that I was wearing a white dress and whoever changed it to me was definitely a woman. Iyon ang pinaniwalaan ko.

I touched the part of my head again. There was a bandage on it. Where did I get the wound? It can't be that I got it when I fell unless my head hit something sharp.

Suddenly, I heard the door open so I turned my gaze there and saw a man enter. Para akong nahampas sa ulo nang makaramdam nang kaunting pagkakahilo. Mukha siyang tatakbo papunta sa puwesto ko pero agad kong hinarang ang kamay kaya naman napatigil siya at humina ang paglalakad niya.

I swear he is familiar to me. I'm so sure that he's the one I saw and talked to in my dream. He finally made himself inches away from me and I couldn't help but wonder why his gaze was so soft. I also felt comfortable with him.

"I think I know you..." I couldn't control myself to mumbled.

His eyes never left mine. I'm sure he's the man from the hotel. I glanced at the reflection one more time before greeting him.
