"Ughhhhhhh...." Ang sakit ng ulo ko.. ano bang nangyari? I held my head.. then may benda akong nakapa.. with that I opened one of my eyes... then when I realized I am in an unfamiliar room.. both my eyes opened wide.. I'm in a white room... am I in a hospital? Then images flashed on the back of my mind... it was night.. I came from a party.. I was a little drunk.. and I was driving.. driving fast.. then there was a sudden curve.. I tried to step on the break.. but the car won't stop... then I heard a guy shouted my name before the car flew off the cliff... yes there was someone with me in the car.. but who? Sino sya? Bakit hindi ko maalala.. arrghhh lalo lang sumasakit ang ulo ko sa pag-iisip..

I looked around again.. this is a white room.. I mean everything is white.. the wall, the curtains, the bedsheet, the table and chair near the window.. but I doubt that this is a hospital... it's more like a room in a rest house... the window is open and the cool breeze of the wind enters the room.. that brings peace and tranquility in the atmosphere... yet too peaceful... too silent... it scares me.. where the heck am I?

I was about to go out of bed to explore this unfamiliar surrounding when I felt a sudden pain in my ankle.. inalis ko yung kumot at yung kaliwang paa ko ay nababalot ng benda.. so I was really caught up in an accident?.. but the question is.. what happened after that? Despite the pain on my ankle, still tinry ko pa ring tumayo and paika-ikang lumapit sa bintana.. I need to know where I am.. or maybe have an idea atleast..

As I approached the window I heard the door open... gusto kong tumalon sa higaan at magkunwaring tulog.. but may pilay ako at isa pa malayo-layo na rin ako sa bed..

A guy... a stranger... someone I saw for thevery first time in my life... chinky eyes, fair complexion, and a very kind smile.. has entered with a tray on his hand filled with a bowl of soup, a glass of milk and a stem of rose..

"Oh good thing you're awake.. tatlong araw ka ng tulog.." he said then deretso sya sa bedside table and ibinababa yung tray doon... at kinuha ang isa pang tray na ganun din ang laman but I bet na kahapon pa yun, medyo lanta na kasi yung isang rose.. Sino sya? Anong nangyari? Paano ako napunta dito? Ilan lang yan sa mga tanong na gumugulo sa utak ko ngayon.. alam kong sya lang makasasagot ng lahat ng iyan pero ni isa wala man lang akong maitanong sa kanya.

Nakatayo lang ako at nakatitig sa kanya habang sya naman ay palabas na ng pintuan dala-dala yung ipinalit nyang tray... hindi ko alam ang nangyayari.. but after he left I felt my feet go back as if it has a mind of its own and so I sat on the edge of the bed and looked at the tray he just brought me..

*krrruuuuggggg* I felt my stomach crumble.. if I remembered it correctly he mentioned 3 days na raw akong tulog meaning 3 days na akong di kumakain.. ahhh basta kakain na muna ako.. mamaya ko na lang sya tatanungin.. after kong kumain..

Nang tinanggal ko ang takip ng bowl, yung usok mula sa mainit na sabaw at humalimuyak na amoy nito.. I'm pretty sure sopas ang laman nito.. parang bigla akong naglaway.. napalunok muna ako at dahan dahang kinuha ang mangkok ng sopas at nanginginig na inabot ang kutsara.. agad akong sumandok at ng malapit na sa bibig ko ang kutsara ay narealize kong hindi kaya may lason ito?... I mean hindi ko sya kilala.. tapos heto ako at kakainin ang hinain nya.. medyo inilayo ko sa bibig ko ang kutsara at inamoy amoy ito.. malalaman ba sa amoy kung may lason ito o wala? O kaya sa kulay.. tinitigan ko ang mga ingredients baka medyo greenish sya or unusual yung kulay at texture nya? tapos inilapit ko nanaman sa ilong ko para amuyin muli..
