Painted Sky

12

I was confined in the hospital for two days and sa two days na yun si Megan yung kasama ko. Pinakiusapan kasi siya ni Tito William na samahan ako dito. We became close in an instant.

My health started to decline because I was not taking good care of it. Stress, depression, plus the trauma na nakuha ko from the accident 3 yrs ago. The doctor said that it would be better if magpahinga muna ako and it was best to stay in the hospital until I can fully recover.

But I was discharged, bumalik ako sa University para iprocess yung leave of absence ko. Marami rami na kasi yung absences ko and I was adviced na mag-LOA na lang since hindi pa naman ako ganun nakakarecover.

Bumalik na naman ako sa depression stage, alam kong hindi lang ako yung nahihirapan sa situation na 'to but what can I do about this?

Megan often visits me at home after her training sa hotel business ng family niya. She keeps me company and I must say na nakakatulong talaga yung bonding moments namin.

But of course, it was not that easy to deal with the pain. Sometimes I really feel so guilty about what had happened to mom. There are times na umiiyak na lang ako hangang sa makatulog ako.

Minsan naiisip ko rin si Cyan. Gusto ko na ngang magalit sa kanya eh pero kasi hindi ko naman alam yung side niya. I don't know pero mas galit pa ata ako kay Red eh.

Niyaya ako ni Megan na lumabas. Makakatulong daw kasi na lumabas labas naman ako kasi baka mas lalo lang daw akong madedepress kung mag-isa lang ako sa bahay.

We decided to meet up at Pizza Hut for lunch but since may konting problem sa company nila, malalate lang daw siya.

Naghanap ako ng mauupuan and waited for Megumi. Nag-order na rin ako ng something para hindi naman nakakahiyang tumambay dito.

"Hi Ysabelle. Long time no see."

She looks familiar but I can't remember her name.

"Uhmm.. Hi."

"Are you alone?"

"I'm waiting for a friend."

"Mind if I join you? Just until your friend arrives."

"Okay."

"How are you after the accident? I've always wanted to contact you but I don't have your number. I tried to ask Red but he said he doesn't know your number either."

"I was fine. You don't need to worry about it."

"Before I forget, I'm opening a cafe and if you have time on Saturday, might as well drop by."

She gave me a calling card and tinignan ko kung ano yung nakalagay. Oh right, Haru is her name.

"Okay, I'll also invite my friend."

"That's great."

"Can I ask you something?"

"Sure."

"You're training at the Andrada's company right?"

"Yeah. I'm training under Red Andrada. He's your friend right?"

"No. He's just someone I knew."

"Oh, okay? So why did you ask?"

"Do you know Cyan?"

"Of course. He's Red's twin brother. We were both training under Red but he suddenly disappeared."

"You don't know the reason why?"

"Nope. But I can ask Red if you want."

"Don't bother and beware of him. He's such a jerk."

"He's so masungit and mayabang nga eh. He's annoying most of the time but can't deny the fact that he's gwapo."
