I want you to meet my parents.''
Nagulat ako nang sabihin niya yon. Hindi ko ineexpect yun. He always told me na hindi sila ok ng daddy niya.
Baka saktan din ako niyon.''
Your dad?'' i asked.''
No.'' i mean tita eli.'' i want you to meet her.'' she become my sec mom since my real mom died.'' she is mareen's mom.'' his smile faded.
Its look like you are close to her.'' you are lucky to be her stepson.''
Not really, ciana.'' i always pushing her away since i was a kid.'' i always think na she is new family of my dad pero hindi kami ok ni dad so si tita eli na yung naging second parent ko simula noon hanggang ngayon actually.''
You are still lucky kasi kahit ganon, she still love you like her real son.'' yung iba nga ay hindi minamahal ang stepson nila.'' you are the one lucky.
We looked at each other.''
You are good at comforting people.'' ciana.''
Iam.'' ako pa.''
After namin mag usap, dinala niya ko sa resto kung saan nakaupo ang tita eli niya.
It was dining curseb resto.''
Hi iha.'' nice to meet you.'' she kissed me on cheek.''
Hello din po.'' tita.'' i also greeted her smiling.''
Buti naman at sinama ka dito ni andrei.'' she said.''
Opo.'' tita.'' i i know you want to meet her.'' he answered to tita eli.
After namin mag dinner, hinatid na ko ni andrei sa condo. umuwi na din siya after.
Kinabukasan ay maaga ako nagising. I go back to my doctor. And talk to her.
Hindi ko alam kung i msunderstood him. Nang makita ko siya, nagsimula nanaman ang pain ko. Ayoko na. Pagod na ko sa kanya.
Ilang araw ako dumadaan sa doctor ng threapy ko dahil sa past ko sa kanya. Hindi ko magawang makalimutan. Umiiyak ako ng gabi gabi.
Araw araw kong napapaginipan ginagawa niya. Kung paano niyang saktan ako.
Hindi ko alam, hanggang kelan ako magiging ganito. Paulit paulit na lang!'' bulong ko sa sarili.
Pagod na ko. Ayoko na makaramdam ng pain.
Putang''ina naman! Sigaw niya sakin. Hinawakan niya ang kamay ko at pinalo to.
Tama na! Sigaw ko pero parang hindi siya tumitigil. Parang hindi siya nakakarinig.
Nakipag hiwalay ako sa kanya. Hindi siya basta pumayag. Kinulong niya ko at hinawakan ang parte ng kamay at katawan ko. Paulit ako sumisigaw pero walang nakakarinig sakin.
Yun lang ang kaya ko sabihin! Umiiyak na sabi ko sa doctor pagkatapos kong magkwento.
Nung bata ako may nakilala ako na lalaking bata. He was just 12 years old or 10 that time. Hindi ko na matandaan. Matagal na yon. In zambales.
Umiiyak ako niyon tapos nilapitan niya ko. Pinatahan at pinakalma.
Kumalma naman ako because of him. Thanks to that kid. He saved me in my ashtma.
Pinakilala sakin ni julia bff niyang lalaki na since chilhood. Nung party niya, nag usap kami ng lalaki sa bar section then after next day nag meet ulit kami sa cafe. He looked at me and i looked at him too. Nagkakatitigan kami. And we become friends after getting know each other until we develop feelings to each other.
Its started in being friends or fubu but in strangers and after we become lovers for 5 years, we also broke up. And ended it. Because he cheated on me kissing another girl. In front of me.
Pero nagkabalikan na kami ngayon. We are ok now. He apologized to me.
After ko sa doctor or therapy ko ay nagpunta ako sa gym. I meet up with oliver dahil siya gym buddies ko noon pa.
We lift up together. We work out together. He help me to work out. We become close because of gym. He is boy bff of avianna. He is direktor.
123 go lift.'' he gave me dumb to lift.''
I almost fell pero kinaya ko. Its easy but hard sometimes lalo na kung hindi ka sanay.
So kaya mo? He tease.''
Oo nga.'' ewan ko sayo.''
Habang nag wowork out siya, nag lilift ako. Nang nag trytry ako, i fell. Ouch. Napalapit agad sakin si oliver to check if im ok.
Uy puta...... Ok ka lang? Ciana?
He looked at me with concern.''
Ok lang pero masakit.'' i will try to walk.'' pero natumba ako.''
Uyyy! Lagot ako kay andrei nito!''
Tinulungan niya ko mag lakad at dinala niya ko sa near cafe shop. Binuhat niya ko like bride.
Binaba niya ko sa upuan and he pulled out chair for me.
He put ice buck sa leg ko. And he gave me meds para mawala yung sakit.
Mag iingat ka kasi!'' he remind me.''
Opo.''
Nakauwi na ko sa condo ko at masakit pa din legs ko. Nilagnat pa ko dahil sa infection ko.
Nakahiga lang ako magdamag sa kama ko. Nakarinig ako ng katok. Its andrei ng buksan ko.
Hi.'' he greeted me.''
Hi.'' i greeted him too with my weak voice.''
He touch my forehead and i have fever. He bring me back to my room.
He took care of me.''
He gave me meds. He made me soup. He feeded me. He tuck me in. He stayed there whole night.
He watched over me.''
He sit beside me in bed. He talk to me.
How are you? He asked me.''
Im fine andrei.'' i gave him smile.''
So good to know.'' ciana.'' i love you.''
I love you too.'' he kissed my forehead.''
You are special to me.'' i love you so much.'' ciana.''
Morning nagising ako pero wala na siya. He left a note on my lamp.
I read it the note.''
