What Kind of Future

Three days in the resort, and Cyra was beginning to actually feel relaxed.

"We'll swim later sa pool ng room ni Summer, sama ka, Cy?" Alyssa spoke while watching their husbands play pool.

The bunch was in the entertainment hall of the resort, playing some games and chatting. It was around five in the afternoon, they'd eat at seven, and wait a while before swimming again. Gwyneth and Francis weren't with them, though, as the woman was feeling nauseous and had a pounding headache.

Min and Niki were playing in an arcade. Their husbands were watching them. The rest were trying out other stuff like basketball and gun games. Ang asawa ni Cyra ay naglalaro din ng pool kasama sina Khian, Dory, Summer, at asawa ni Summer.

"Sige," sagot ni Cyra sa kaibigan. "Iinom ba sila?"

Umiling si Alyssa. "Hindi, pinigilan ko, kagabi kasi uminom na rin sila. Pause muna, 'ka ko. Pumayag naman, we'll just all take a dip. Gwen will be there too, but she'll just sit near the pool. I'll cook barbecue with the guys."

"Okay."

Cyra looks at her husband's back. He was laughing at something Summer said, the other guys were too. She wished she had heard it.

"Oh, ano? Talo kayo," Summer said with a smile on her face. "Isa pa?"

"Sinuwerte ka lang, Summer, sinuwerte ka lang," Khian joked.

"Tama, naulanan kasi ng malas si Khian kanina, e, kaya natalo kami," ani Dory.

Umambang susuntukin ni Khian si Dory dahil sa sinabi nito, dahilan ng paghalakhak ng mga kasama nila sa laro. Habang nangyayari iyon, naramdaman ni Cyra ang pag-vibrate ng phone niya. Kinuha nito ang telepono at tiningnan ang notification. Nag-text ang kapatid niya.

Paola

Hindi ka na bumalik dito ate!!!!

Papa once asked where you were staying

Sabi ko malapit kay kuya adiel

Magpakita ka na, lalong magagalit tong mga to kung di ka magparamdam

Alam kong inaayos mo yung inyo ni kuya

Pero galit din ang mga tao sayo rito

Cyra goes out of the hall and dials her sister to talk. It took almost a minute before the other line picked up.

"Hello, Pao?" Cyra greets.

"Ate? Ano? Kumusta? 'Di ka na nagparamdam," salita ng nakababatang kapatid.

"Si Mama ba, nagtanong din?"

There was a short silence before Paola denied. "Hindi. Si Papay lang, Ate."

Cyra sighs. "Pupunta ako ulit diyan pag-uwi namin ni Adiel. Sabihan mo 'ko kapag wala silang pasok, gusto ko silang dalawa ni Papay ang kauusapin ko."

"Sige, alam ko, next week, Tuesday, holiday, e, punta ka no'n. Paniguradong narito lang naman 'yong dalawa."

"Next week, Tuesday, okay."

"Kumusta na ba kayo ni Kuya, Ate? Okay na? O tumitira ka pa rin malapit sa kaniya?"

Cyra walks back and forth alone in the empty hallway. "Hindi pa kami okay. Hindi ko pa siya nakakausap, e."

"Luh! Ang tagal na niyan, 'di pa rin? Kausapin mo na."
