Kinabukasan ay maaga akong nagising at nagluto agad ng umagahan niya. Sinabi niya sakin na may pupuntahan daw siya at maaga itong aalis. After preparing his breakfast I then prepared the table. Then his coffee. Pupuntahan ko na sana siya pero sakto naman lumabas na siya sa kwarto niya.
"Where are you going?" He asked while fixing his tie.
"Sayo." Sagot ko. "Po." Dugtong ko.
Muntik kona makalimutan amo ko pala siya. He raised his brow and tilted his head when he was finally in front of me. He is wearing business attire. All black. He has no necktie, nakaunbutton ang isang butones niya. He tied his hair and he looked freaking hot. Nakakagulat. I actually pulled this man. Can I do that?
"Nasa mesa na ang umagahan mo, sir." Tumabi ako. He lifted my chin and stared at me, coldly. He shaved his beard. Now he looks clean and the Gauis I used to know.
"Don't call me that anymore. I know your breast size." He smirked and pushed my forehead with his finger softly.
Umalis ito at agad naman ako napairap sa sinabi niya. Wala sa sarili ko hinawakan ang dibdib. Hindi naman maliit 'to ah?! Bastos talaga bugok na'to.
Pumunta muna ako sa kwarto ng lalaking ginamot namin. Hindi siya pwede mamatay. Sayang lang ang ginawa ko kung ganon. I still need to confirm if it's really Gauis' father who they are looking for, and why. Akala koba kontento na siya mang namatay? Bakit pati sariling anak ayaw niyang tigilan.
Pumasok ako sa kwarto at tulog parin ang walang kwentang 'to. I checked his IV and pulse. It's weak. Maraming dugo ang nawala sa kanya. I stabbed his eyes which was a wrong move because if he dies I'm back to zero.
"You can't die yet," I whispered.
I closed my eyes and brushed my hair aggressively. I don't know anymore. What am I doing? Am I really here for my dogs? Part of me says it does and part of me says it doesn't.
"Nababaliw na ata ako." Sambit ko.
Why is my life so complicated? I just lost my memories. Lost my dogs. Gauis can't remember me, and I've still been stuck for 3 years. Nandon parin ako. Lumuhod ako. Wag ka mamatay. I want a reason. A reason to move. I don't want to live in fear. Fear that if the moment I let my guard down again, I'll be the one to lose. Ako ang talo.
"Why are you kneeling?"
Agad akong tumayo at tumingin sa pintuan. Nandon si Gauis na masama ang tingin sakin. I stared at him blankly.
"Akala ko umalis kana?"
"I left something." He said and walked towards me.
"Wallet mo?" He shook his head and raised his right hand, showing me a silver cuffed bracelet that made my whole body freeze.
Parang hinampas ng malakas ang puso ko sa hawak hawak niyang bracelet. He still has it. Wala sa sarili ako napahawak sa dibdib ko at naramdaman ko doon ang singsing na tinatago ko. I want to tell him everything, but what's next? Hindi ko alam kung tatanggapin niya ako o iiwan. Takot ako maiwan, takot ko sa katotohanan na baka iwan niya ako pagsinabi ko ang totoo o pipilitin niya ang sarili na mahalin ako kahit hindi naman niya ako kilala. Ayoko non. Ayoko siyang pilitin na mahalin ako. Dahil hindi yon ang Gauis na kilala ko.
"S-sino... Sino nagbigay sayo n'yan?" Nauutal kong tanong.
Sinuot niya ang bracelet at tinago sa sleeve niya. "Matteo. He installed a tracking device in the bracelet. Just in case something happens to me."
