Ano nga ba?.
All of us were shocked after we heard the sudden death of our dearest friend, Blue. He got shot by Sabrinas's step mom. We all grieved and cried at his burial. Sabrina on the other hand, were silent the whole time but we all know how she's slowly dying seeing her husband on that coffin. Kailan lang nung ikinasal sila sa La Union. Ang saya saya pa nila noon.
Pagkatapos ng libing ay palagi namin siyang iniimbitahang lumabas kasama namin pero palagi siyang umaayaw. She always says, she wants to be alone. Ganoon lang palagi ang scenario.
Hanggang sa dumating ang merging ng isa sa mga kilalang kumpanya dito sa Pilipinas at mapa ibang bansa. I was one of the guests since I, too were a part of the business world.
"No. This can't be! No. No. No." Hindi makapaniwalang sabi ni Sabrina pagkakita sa lalaking nasa harap ng entablado. Maging kaming nandoon ay hindi makapaniwala sa nakikita sa harapan. Napaiyak na siyang dinaluhan ng kanyang kapamilya sa kanyang tabi. Napatingin pa siya sa kanyang kuya at nagtanong. "That man on the stage is not Blue, right?" Kunot noo niyang tanong, at muling ibinaling ang kanyang paningin sa nakangisi paring lalake sa kanya. My brows knotted as I looked at the man who is smirking so hard at the stage. This can't be.
"I don't know. But he looks like Blue. F*cking looks like Blue." Mura ni Troy.
"Dad. He's not Blue right? What the f*ck! Of course, he is." She was so sure that she didn't wait for her father's response. Agad na siyang pumunta ng stage. I saw how her hands trembled. "Damn! You're alive. How come? " Takang tanong niya.
"Yes. I am baby, and I missed your f*ckin' kisses. Can I have it?" I think I saw an alien in his persona. This is not the Blue I knew. I've been one of his girl-friends so I know him very well. The Blue I am seeing right now is, indifferent and unreal?. Hindi ko alam kung ano ang sinabi nito kay Sabrina dahil bulong lang iyon. Puno ng saya ang makikita sa mukha ni Sab not until Amber spoke.
"What are you doing Terrenz? Damn it! I knew it! Kaya ka umuwi ng Pinas dahil gusto mong kalantarin ang asawa ni Blue! I'm telling you! Stop this! Please! For God's sake! Not Sabrina! Not your twin's wife!" Galit at umiiyak na bulyaw ni Amber kay Terrenz. Dinaluhan naman ni Ezekiel ang asawa. Amber is the eldest sister of Blue. I know her. But Terrenz? Walang naikwento sa amin si Blue na may kakambal siya. Kung mayroon man, posible kayang nakalimutan ko?
"Shit!" Mura nung lalakeng kamukha ni Blue.
"Who are you? And why are you pretending to be someone you are not? And worse, Blue? Huh! Stupid me! Stupid me! Why is this happening? What the hell is happening?" Nanginginig sa galit na tanong ni Sabrina at walang lakas na napaupo sa sahig.
"I can be Blue if you want to, besides, he's dead now. And there's nothing you can do about that." Diretsahang sabi ni Terrenz. Napasinghap halos kaming lahat sa narinig mula sa kanya. How can this guy, be so desperate?.
"Terrenz! Bullshit! Stop it! You're hurting her!" Sigaw ni tito Andrew, ang ama nila Blue.
"And I am better than him in bed, you know. Wanna taste me? Compare me with Blue? Honey, I am more than willing to be your bed warmer." Bulgarang sabi nito kay Sabrina dahilan upang magkalakas ng loob si Sab upang mapatayo at masampal ito.
"How dare you! You don't know anything! You stupid jerk! Are you really my husband's twin? Bakit magkaibang magkaiba kayo ng ugali?" Galit na galit niyang sabi pero inismiran lamang siya ni Terrenz.
"Yes. Of course I know everything! Honey, you are wrong! I know everything. How you played my brother's heart. How you hurt him badly when you left him seven years ago!" Napahawak ako sa dibdib ko noong marinig ko iyon. Parang natamaan ako sa sinabi niya. "How pathetic you were when you pleaded to him, to love you back again. How he still accepted you to be part of his life again! How your bitterness and revenge towards that Marie, killed my brother! Those two bullets. Those 'effin bullets killed my twin! You hear me? Because of you! I've lost my own brother! He saved you! Saved you from hell! Save your f*cking life from that Marie! Now......YOU TELL ME, Did I miss anything? Do I know nothing? Because if I didn't. Then f*ck! Why am I here? Why am I too eager to come home? Bullshit!" Mariin itong napapikit ng kanyang mga mata.
"Hindi ko sinasadya! God knows, hindi ko kagustuhang mawala siya." Napahagulgol ng sabi ni Sab. Dinaluhan na siya ng mga kapamilya.
"Sinadya mo man o hindi, he's gone now. So please. Just, be gone! Stay away from us. Stay away from this country." Mariin at matigas na saad ni Terrenz. Napayuko naman ulit si Sabrina at tumango tango.
"If that's the only way to stop this mess, then fine, I'll leave. But please, promise me to kill Marie. This may sound too murderous, but I want her dead." Nanlilisik ang mata niya pagkatapos sabihin ang mga iyon bago nagtatatakbong lumabas ng building. Agad namang hinabol ni Troy ang kapatid.
Nagsimulang magbulong bulungan ang mga tao pagkatapos umalis si Sabrina. Hindi ko na nasundan ang ibang usapan dahil maging ako ay parang nakaramdam ng paninikip ng dibdib sa mga narinig. Blue's been my closest guy friend. And it's too painful to accept the fact that he was gone for real.
Lumabas ako at napaupo sa may bench sa labas. Napahawak akong muli sa aking dibdib. Hindi ko alam kung ilang minuto akong tulala hanggang sa may naglagay ng coat sa balikat ko. Nag angat ako ng tingin upang makita lamang kung sino iyon.
"Wayne." Halos pabulong ko na lamang nasabi iyon sa matinding gulat ko. I don't know what's with the look. His face is grim and his jaw hardened.
"Stand up. I'll drive you home." Malamig niyang utos bago ako tinalikuran. Naglakad siya pero dahil siguro hindi niya maramdaman ang pagsunod ko ay huminto siya at inis na naglakad pabalik sa akin. Siya na ang nagtayo sa akin. "Damn. Let's go.!" Inis kong iniaalis ang kamay niya sa braso ko pero lalong humigpit iyon. "Don't struggle with me Selena. And don't be a hardheaded woman.!" Asik pa niya na lalong nagpainis sa akin.
"Ano ba. Bitawan mo nga ako! Ano ba kita?!" Pagkatapos kong masabi iyon ay kusang bumitaw ang kamay niya sa braso ko. Sa sobrang bilis ng pangyayari ay pati ako ay nagulat sa sinabi ko. At kung kanina ay matigas na ang ekspresyon niya, ngayon naman ay dumoble na.
"Ano nga ba ako sa'yo Selena?" He asked darkly.
