Paikot-ikot akong tumatakbo sa isang park na parang may hinahanap ako. Maraming mga taong nakakabangga sakin pero hindi ko iyon pinapansin.
I didn't stop, until I saw this manly figure standing beside a tree. Siya ang hinahanap ko.
"Heeeeeey! Wait up." I shouted.
Naglakad ako papalapit sakanya ngunit kusa siyang lumalayo. Natatabunan na rin siya ng mga tao pero hindi ako susuko kailangan maabutan ko siya kaya tuloy lang ako sa pagtakbo.
Tumigil siya sa tapat ng isang fountain kaya tumigil na din ako pero nakatingin pa rin ako sakanya. I can feel the tiredness flowing through my body.
"Ziki!" I shouted again.
This time lumingon na siya and he's smiling and waving at me.
"Isi! Please come here. I miss you." he said.
so I smiled back and started to walk to his direction.
While I was approaching him, pakonti ng pakonti ang mga tao. Pagdating ko sa likuran niya kaming dalawa na lang ang nasa park.
Ang romantic ng ambiance.
Bagay na bagay saming dalawa.
Hinawakan ni Ziki ang mga braso ko at ngumiti.
"Isi, the first time we found each other here is of the best moments in my life. I never knew that you're the one whose going to change it. The dullness I had was painted with the bright colors you have within yourself. Now I wanna make this fountain, again a witness of my strong love for you and will remind you of the promise I made. That even if you make so much mistakes I will never leave nor hurt you. Ever." he said.
His eyes never looked away at mine while saying it. My face is now covered with tears of joy. Sasagot pa lang sana ako pero unti-unting lumalapit ang mukha niya sa mukha ko.
Slowly, I closed my eyes and waited for the kiss but it never touched my lips. Binuksan ko ang mata ko. Gulat at takot ang aking nararamdaman sa nakikita ko ngayon.
Isang nasasaktan at galit na galit na Ezikean Ferrer ang bumungad sakin. Nakahawak siya sa braso ko. His grip in my arms tightened when I looked at him.
"F*CK IT ANA! BAKIT?! Sabihin mo sakin bakit nangyari to! B*llsh*t! Siya ang dapat na inuuna mo. Bakit mo siya pinabayaan?! Pag may nangyaring masama sakanya, hindi ko alam ang magagawa ko sayo! This is all your f*ckin' fault!" he shouted, while tears rolled down his eyes.
Masakit na yung hawak niya sakin. I can feel him controlling himself to not hit me.
Nakayuko lang ako habang umiiyak. Bakit hindi ako tumitigil kakaiyak? Bakit hindi ako makatingin sakanya? Bakit hindi ako makapagsalita? Bakit hindi ko mapagtanggol sarili ko?
Oo nga pala. Kasalanan ko naman talaga.
"I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU!" he screamed while shaking me hardly that I feel like I would fall.
"I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU!"
"I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU!"
"I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My eyes immediately opened and my back popped-out of the bed, that caused me to sit down. My breath's getting short and heavy.
Naisip ko ulit yung panaginip ko. pinikit ko ulit ang mga mata ko at huminga ng malalim to calm my nerves.
I was dreaming IT again. I looked at the digital clock and saw what date it is.
I'm feeling the emptiness and sadness again. Araw-araw namang ganito ako. Mas malala nga lang sa araw na to.
"Yeah, today is the day. Good morning Jane." I whispered then sighed.
After I composed myself. Ngumiti ako even though I'm sad. I do not need to show her that I'm sad. Baka malungkot din siya.
I stood up and fixed my bed. Pagkatapos ay dumeretso ako sa salamin ng cr. I looked at myself.
"There's always hope. hope. hope. hope. Never lose it Ana!" I said.
Repeating my mantra over and over again.
Kailangan ko na palang bilisan. Magluluto pa ko ng breakfast ni Kean.
