" Sana lang magustuhan ko 'yang surprise na sinasabi mo. " ani ko kay Cielo.
" Kung ako tatanungin. Hindi siya happy happy. Pero dahil hindi mo ako tinatanong. Shut up na lang ako. " sabi ni Caloy sa akin at tumawa. Yung tawang alam mong hindi nga maganda ang tinutukoy niya.
Hindi ko nga siya tinanong. Sinabi naman niya. Edi wala rin?
I sigh and just ordered for Seah. Hindi rin ako mag tatagal ngayon kaya aayain ko sila mag kita ulit bukas dahil bukas ko itatanong ang lahat.
" You don't tell them? Kilala naman kami nila Seah. Lalo na 'tong tukmol na 'to. " sabi ni Cielo nang sabihin ko na para kay Seah ang aking binili at aalis na rin pag nakuha na.
Agad akong kinabahan at nag isip ng palusot. How could I tell them that I don't want my cousins to know that they are here because they might know things na dapat hindi?
" They were busy watching the game. Baka later ko na sabihin. " sabi ko.
" Alright hatid--- "
" Huwag na. It's okay. " awat ko agad sa kanila.
Nag dududa akong tinignan ni Cielo dahil doon. I can sense that I'm again panicking. He tilted his head at sumandal sa inuupuang couch bago nag tanong. " Are you hiding something? "
My eyes widened a little at bahagyang nataranta dahil hindi alam ang sasabihin. I knew he can sense everything so easily! Proven na today oh.
I played with my fingers as I find it hard to speak even though I already have my excuse. Carlos seems to notice it so he intervened.
" Come on dude. She doesn't remember everything yet. Kanina ka nga lang niya naalala hindi ba? I doubt she remembers every single of your memories together. Ikalma mo. "
Cielo listens to Carlos all while looking at me. Naka crossed arms ito na sanhi kung bakit kitang kita ang kanyang maugat na braso.
He sigh. " What is the latest memory you have remembered aside from us? "
" Don't answer if your head hurts, okay? " Carlos reminded immediately after Cielo asked that.
I remember a lot of things.
Like a lot.
Simula nung bata ako hanggang sa nangyari kay Mama. Lahat 'yon ay naaalala ko. Kaya nga hindi dumaan sa isip ko noon na may amnesia ako since things are normal.
I don't even know if amnesia is really the term sa kondisyon ko. I don't really know. I haven't went to a doctor yet to get professional and accurate answers.
" About how I called Kairus that night when Mommy got into the accident and about how Dad..." I stopped talking as I find it hard to say.
They were patient enough to wait for me to continue amidst minutes have passed. Carlos continuously told me that it was okay and I should take my time as they waited.
Hindi ko alam kung ano nga ba ang mas masakit. Ang sabihin na ginawa iyon ng aking ama... o ang katotohanang hindi ko nga siya nakikilala ng lubos.
" And about how Dad abused Mom. That was the latest one before I got to remember some of our glimpes before. " pag amin ko ng totoo.
They looked at each other and speak through their eyes once again. Carlos sigh beside me and slowly caress my back. Giving me comfort as I speak up.
" Kairus told me that Dad...abused Mom. I remember some of it but before those things ay hindi pa. " pagpapatuloy ko. They were silent as they listened to me.
