I don't know why I'm here and who's this boy beside me. He's hugging me so tight, and there's a girl sleeping on the other side of the room. Glass wall kaya nakikita ko.
Where's mom and dad? Biglang gumalaw yung bata at sumiksik pa sakin. Shit, medyo masakit natamaan yung chest ko na may bandage. Gagalaw sana ko pero he woke up.
"Dada, you're awake!" Biglang sabi niya.
"I love you, dada. Look, mom is there. I walked here to sleep beside you." This lil' boy is so cute, but he said dada? Mom? Umupo siya, halatang inaantok pa, tinitignan ko lang siya.
"Dada, why are you not talking? Are you realizing that you don't love me anymore because I'm makulit? I didn't follow mom when she said that I'll sleep beside her?" Sabi niya, tapos umiyak siya. Hala, anong gagawin ko?
"Dada, I will behave. Please love me, please," sabi niya ulit habang umiiyak.
"Hey, hey, don't cry." Hindi ko alam gagawin ko, bakit ang himbing matulog nung babaeng nagbabantay sa kanya. Asan ba sila, mom? Bakit kumuha ng bantay tapos may anak pa, umiiyak pa din yung bata. My goodness.
"Hey, what's your name?" Sabi ko.
"I'm Bennie," he answered me, but he was still sobbing.
"Okay, Bennie, stop crying. You lie down here beside me and continue to sleep. Tomorrow, I'll talk to you. Is that okay with you?" sabi ko, sana effective.
Halata naman kasi na gabi pa at antok pa yung bata, dahil dun sa window na medyo nakataas yung blinds.
"We will play tomorrow? But can you hug me, dada? I miss you so much," he said. Inabot ko yung face niya with my left hand to wipe his tear as I nod. Agad naman siya humiga ng maingat at umunan sa braso ko, kahit na medyo makirot yung chest ko, hinayaan ko siya at niyakap with my left hand.
"I love you, dada," he said while looking at me smiling. I just smiled at him.
Jhoana's POV
Nakatulog pala ako, hindi ko na malayan. Kinakapa ko si Bennie beside me, hindi ko makapa kaya I opened my eyes immediately. Wala siya sa tabi ko, kaya agad ako tumayo para hanapin. Lalabas na sana ako ng room nang tumingin muna ako kay Beatriz, laking gulat ko magkatabi sila.

Gising na si Beatriz, dalawang linggo na wala akong hiniling sa Panginoon kundi magising na siya.
Tinitignan ko lang silang dalawa. Siguro kung napalaki namin si Bennie na magkasama, makadada si Bennie. Siguro masaya kami, at sigurado ako may kapatid na din si Bennie.
Para silang pinagbiyak na buko. Alam kong kasalanan ko, kaya gagawin ko lahat mabuo lang kami. Itatama ko na lahat ng dapat itama at wala nang iisipin kung hindi kami lang.
