CHIVALRY

Maaga silang umalis, mga bandang 4:20 siguro, may pasok pa sila at hindi sila pwedeng mag absent. Magagalit mga magulang nila, isa pa nandito naman na si papa. Medyo awkward nga lang dahil sa nalaman ko kahapon. Dumating si papa wala na yung mga bwisita, buti nga marunong silang mag ligpit. Si Darcey naman, umuwi pero babalik din agad, ang sabi niya naka excuse siya kasi may ginagawa raw siyang importante. Si Amaya pumasok, marami raw ipapagawa sa kanila.

"Sweetie, is there something wrong? Are you okay?" Ramdam ko yung pag-aalala ni Papa sa boses niya. Tumango lang ako bilang sagot, h’wag ko muna siya sigurong tanungin, mukha siyang pagod. "Okay, let me know kung may kailangan ka or something."

It was actually hard for me to avoid him, ayoko lang malaman yung magiging sagot sa tanong ko. Baka mamaya, masaktan lang ako sa maririnig ko. Pero, gusto kong malaman yung totoong nangyari, kailangan kong tatagan loob ko.

Kaming dalawa lang ni papa nandito, siguro naman makakaiyak ako sa kanya kapag nalaman ko yung totoo.

"Pa, i have a question po. Please, answer it honestly." He just nodded and tell me to continue, "Anong nangyari kay Raz at sa parents niya?" Kalmado lang ako, katulad niya. Walang bakas na reaksyon sa mukha ni papa, nag-uumpisa na ’kong matakot sa kanya. Sana mali si Darcey.

He sighed and look at my eyes, "Darcey, your friend killed Graziella. She was so mad, that’s why she did that." Kahit boses niya, malamig, "And, i killed both of her parents. Para naman kumpleto sila sa libingan. Sila rin ang rason kung bakit nakita mo kaming may hawak na gano’n no’ng araw na paalis na tayo." He explained it so calmly, yet so cold.

But, i can’t really find the reason why Darcey did that. I mean, she would really get mad, but killing her is a wrong choice. She can drag her out or expelled her. As well as my Father, he can sue them. But they choose to kill them.

"Magpahinga kana, may bibisita sayo mamaya." Umalis siya na hindi tumingin sa ’kin. Hmm, nagalit kaya siya sa tanong ko? Sana hindi, gusto ko lang naman malaman yung totoo. Ayokong nakakarinig ng kasinungalingan, lalo na kung galing sa kanila.

Tulad ng sabi ni Papa, nag pahinga nalang ako. Wala naman na ’kong magagawa, nangyari na ang nangyari, hindi ko na maitatama yung maling ginawa nila. Sana lang hindi sila makulong or managot sa ginawa nilang ’yon.

DARCEY

I’m going to Ry’s room to check on her, but tito Calvin is in the door. What happened to him? Nababaliw na naman ba siya.

I’m just kidding, he’s still Ry’s father.

"Tito, good morning. How’s Ry po?"

At first he didn’t notice me, until i waved my hands at his face. "Oh, you’re here Darcey. Morning, what’s brings you here?"

"I just want to check her, and look for her. Tulog pa rin ba siya?" I asked, but he shake his head, which means gising na si Ry. Papasok na sana ako kaso pinigilan niya ‘ko kaya tinignan ko siya, "W-why are you stopping me?"

"Let’s have a short talk, here take a sit," I just sitted in front of him. Ano na naman ba pag-uusapan namin? Anak niya pinunta ko rito, hindi siya. "She asked me kung anong nangyari kay Graziella, i just tell her the truth. But, her face looks so disappointed. That’s why i leave and tell her to take some rest because someone will visits her."

Oh, that’s why he looks like that kanina. Ayon pala reason. But, why she looks so disappointed? Is she not sanay na ganon yung nangyayari sa paligid niya? Don’t tell me hindi niya alam totoong pagka-tao ni tito, tita at mga kapatid niya? That’s too much kung ganon.
