Mavi got discharged this morning. Jimuel help her with the papers and bills. Since the argument in Lynsaie's condo she haven't seen her and her girlfriend. But Mavi believe it's better for them. Mavi is not sitting on her bed while contemplating if she's going to call Crys. After sometime she decided to dial her number.
"Mavi." She heard her worried voice from the line.
"Don't let Avi go here" Mavi said to her.
"What if she wants to see you, Mavi?" She asked.
"Ate please" Mavi begged.
"I understand, babi. Just take your rest." Crys replied understandingly.
"But she already knew that you're married. She went there and found out about it. But I guess she doesn't know that she is your wife." Crys explained but Mavi didn't react.
"Ate" Mavi called her.
"Hmm?" Crys hummed as a reply.
"The time we spend together, I treasure all of that. Thank you for being a good friend to me and Avi. I'm sorry if I keep giving you a hard time for so many years now,yet you never left my side.You stay with me especially in my darkest time. When I have no strength to hold on you offer me your hand.I know you're tired yet I never heard any complaints from you.You really made me feel loved. I may not be able to say this anymore but please always remember that I love you in any way I can. You will always be my big sister by heart." Mavi lovingly said as her eyes were full of gratefulness that Crys cannot see.
"I love you, baby Mavi. I love you. Just hold a little more please. " Crys assured Mavi.
__Crys put down her phone when the call got disconnected.
"Mavi must be lucky to have you no?" Crys turns around to see who's behind her, Gleen. She is staring right at her.
"No, ako ang maswerte na meron akong siya dahil si Mavi lang ang meron ako." Crys replied as she walked past Gleen.
"Meron ka ding ako ah." Gleen said as she looked at her. Crys stop on her track and laugh.
"Joke ba yan? Itigil mo hindi bagay sayo." She suddenly stops laughing as her expression becomes cold.
"Maniwala ka man o hindi, totoo yung sinasabi ko." Gleen walks closer to Crys. But the latter moved away as she pointed her finger firmly at Gleen.
"Huwag mo nang tangkaing baguhin yung isip ko." Crys clenches her jaw as she tightly grips her fist.
"Napakatigas mo naman. Ano pa bang gusto mo? Gusto mo bang lumuhod pa ako at magmakaawa sayo? Sabihin sayo na ate umuwi ka na? Ganun ba? GANUN BA HA?!" Gleen grimace in pain as her eyes become watery. Crys on the other hand just snorted and rolled her eyes.
"Wala kang alam kaya-
" Dahil ayaw mong malaman ko!" Gleen cuts her off aggresively. Her tears flow down on her cheeks but she quickly wipes it out.
" Ayaw mong magsabi. Ayaw mong nandyan ako. Bakit? Ano bang mali ko? Sabihin mo naman sakin kasi hirap na hirap na akong isipin kong bakit nagkakaganito tayo." Gleen painfully let go of those words as her heart sank because Crys doesn't even flinch in every word she said.
"Ate bumalik ka na samin oh" Her words sound so desperate. Crys shake her head.
"Simula nung pinili ni Daddy na palayasin ako alam ko nang hindi na ako babalik." Crys said she tried her best not to break her mask. She needs to stay strong."Napakaselfish mo!" Gleen yelled at her as she cried and her shoulder started to shake uncontrollably.
"Oh shut up. Gleen alam mo kung may selfish man dito ikaw yun!" Crys said out of anger.
"Ako? Ako nanaman! Wow ha! Wow!" Gleen snorted as she pointed her finger at herself."Walang kwentang usapan 'to" Crys turns her back as she's about to walk away Gleen quickly grabs her wrist, Crys pulls her hand away as she glares at Gleen.
"Putangina! Ano pa bang gusto mo sakin Gleen? Hinayaan na nga kita na mag-isa sa bahay diba? Iniwan na nga kita doon kila mommy diba? Solong solo mo na nga lahat kung ano man ang meron sila! Ano pa ba? Hanggang dito ba naman? Tangina! Putangina! Katahimikan na lang sa buhay yung gusto ko ayaw mo pang ibigay? Ikaw ang paborito, oo na, gets ko na kaya tigilan mo na ako! Ikaw na yung magaling, matalino, may pakinabang at higit sa lahat ikaw lang yung mahal na mahal na anak! Tapos ako? Walang kwenta! Patapon! Kahihiyan! Fine just please let me live my life. Leave me alone." Crys became red as she breathe heavily. Her chest goes up and down rapidly.
"Hindi yan totoo. You're the best. You are way better than me. Kaya nga ako nagpapakasipag mag-aral para mapansin mo ako kasi idol kita e. Gusto kong gayahin ka. Pero noong umalis ka parang nawala na din ako. They put a lot of pressure on me. Kailangan kita noon pero wala ka. You're my safe space. Just you. I was drowning with those problems na hindi ko naman alam kung deserve ko. Sana manlang ate, naisip mo na bunso mo ako at ate kita. Naisip mo sana na bago mo ako iwan na ikaw ang ate ko. Kapatid mo ako e. Naiingit ako kay Mavi kasi siya kahit papaano naramdaman niya yung pagmamahal na galing sayo na palagi kong dinarasal na sana maranasan ko rin." Gleen did not shout this time. She said this words out of pain. Her voice sounded so weak and almost fading. Gleen fell on her knees as she covered her face using her both hands. She's crying. Crys just stares at younger sister, her mouth agape. The sudden outburst of her sister shocked her. She slowly walks toward her sister and kneels down with her. They both cried their heart out as they shared a long hug.
