“Love, why are you always giving me those beaded bracelets?”
He always do that. Bracelet after bracelet. Minsan, kahit walang okasyon, binibigyan niya ako nito. Some of it are white, blue, red. Pero ang pinakamarami ay purple.
I don't know his reasons at all. Tinatanggap ko lang nang tinatanggap ang mga binibigay niya. Dati naman puro silver ang binibigay niyang bracelet, pero ngayon, puro beads na.
I can't help but to wonder. What's his reason for this?
“Love??”
“Do you remember the time you told me that you used to cvt your wrist?”
Naalala ko nanaman. Whenever I feel sad and empty, I always cvt my wrist. Self-h@rm kung tawagin. I was vulnerable. I don't have anyone beside me. Sa ganoong paraan, nakakalma ko ang sarili ko.
“Yes, what about it?”
“I thought that giving you those kind of bracelets would ease your pain. Whenever you feel sad, siraan mo lang yung bracelet. Hilain mo sa braso mo hanggang sa masira, so you don't have any reason to cvt your wrist anymore. Beside, hindi compatible sayo ang silvers, nangangalawang. Hindi mo nasusuot after mo suotin ng isang beses. Kaya ayan, I started giving you those bracelets for that reasons”
Napatulala ako sa sinabi niya. From what I always sees, hindi siya observant. Maybe? I don't know... Really...
Totoo nga yung sinasabi nila. Masarap sa pakiramdam kapag kilala ka ng taong minamahal mo. In the meantime, he learn a lot about me. He knew everything about me. He did studied everything. For the very first time in my entire life, there's someone sho is willing to learn everything about me.
Within one month together, he knew if I was unhappy, irritated, sad, and anything by just looking at me. He knew everything that could make me happy. I'm not that material girlie like Tasha, but I loved to receive things from him—unknowingly.
“Pwede kaya lumabas?”
“Can't sleep?”
“Yeah..”
There's so much thought in my mind. Dione hasn't told me anything about the incident. Sinabi na ni Tasha pero gusto ko paring marinig sakanya mismo.
“Pwede tayo mag-ikot sa Garden, gusto mo ba? I'll get one wheelchair”
“Eh? I can walk!”
“You heard me Iyah, wait me there. I'll be back real quick”
Then he went outside the room. Now he get bossy huh?
A minutes later, he came back with the wheelchair. Pinaupo niya ako sa wheelchair, he then bring some water, together with the saline bag of mine.
When we reached the front door of the hospital, the cold breeze immediately embrace my skin. Ang sarap sa pakiramdam ng hangin. Its touching my skin with a gentleness in it.
We stop at the nearest bench. Dione sat beside me. Nilibot ko ang paningin ko sa buong garden. Ang liwanag nang buwan ang siyang nagsisilbing ilaw samin.
“Do you see the lights there, baby?”
“Huh?”
“There, the city lights”
Namangha ako nang tignan ko kung anong tinuturo niya. The city lights is indeed a beautiful sight to see. The air was temperate, the breeze was cool, the stars befrilled the blanket of the night with their glow, the orb of the moon illuminated the bench and trees around us.
