It had been over an hour since we got home. Dumating si Mommy sa hospital around eight and hinatid niya na ako pauwi. Dala ni Zach yung sarili niyang car kaya hindi namin siya kasabay. Helen and Gwen stayed with me the whole time we waited for my mom. Zach did too, but nasa labas lang siya kasi hindi rin siya kinausap no'ng dalawa.

Hindi muna ako nag-reply kay Paris kasi wala rin akong maisip na sabihin. Medyo kanina pa kami magka-text. Tatawag sana siya kaso sabi ko ayokong magsalita masyado kaya mag-text na lang kami, so here we were.

Hindi na naman ako nakapag-reply agad kasi since our very first texts, hindi namin nabanggit yung name ni Shishi. Ngayon lang. Gusto ko sanang itanong kaso hindi ako makahanap ng t'yempo.

𝐒𝐢𝐫𝐚. 𝐇𝐚𝐡𝐚. 𝐒𝐢𝐠𝐞 𝐧𝐚 𝐧𝐠𝐚 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐥𝐨𝐠 𝐧𝐚 𝐤𝐨. 𝐆𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐧𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐬 :) 𝐬𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐭 :)

I placed my phone above my nightstand and buried myself under the sheets. Ngayon lang ako ulit nakaramdam ng ganitong comfort mula kahapon. Malamig na ang panahon pero iba yung warmth na dala ng kumot at mga unan ko.

Texting Shishi was a wild temptation kanina pa pero ayokong mag-give in dun. Si Paris nga na friend niya, hindi niya sinasagot, ako pa kaya? Kaso gustong gusto ko siyang kumustahin. He was wounded too. Who took care of those wounds? I could not see him doing that on his own.

A knock came on the door kaya binaba ko yung blanket hanggang sa dibdib ko. I turned around para humarap sa pinto. "Come in."

The door creaked when it opened and Mommy peeked her head in. "How are you feeling?"
