Amnesia - 5SOS

------------------------------------------------------------

"Just check it out already Awy. Don't be such a chicken" ani Eumee

"I don't want it. What if I'll fail? What if I didn't do it mee?" sabi ko na halos manginig na sa takot habang nagtatype ng aking pangalan sa listahan ng mga License Surgeon na ngayon pa inilibas.

Yes I am a Medical Student and a surgeon - wait i am still praying and hoping that i'll pass the licensure because my life depends on it like any other students that took the exam.

"I don't wanna do it Mee. I feel like vomiting." Ani ko.

"What? You've come all the way here and even took that exam and that you'll just say that you can't do it? Where's the balls my man?" Sabi ni Eumee habang nagsoscroll down sa listahan at patuloy na hinahanap ang aking pangalan.

Bigla akong nasuka at dalidaling tumabok sa sink at sinuka ang lahat ng puwede pang isuka dahil kanina pako suka ng suka dahil sa tensyon na aking dinadala.

"OHMYGEEEEEE!!!! YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT THIS AWY! MYGOD I THINK I'M GONNA CRY!" dali dali akong bumalik sa tabi ni eumee at nakitang nakazoom in ang pangalan ko. At humiga pabalik sa aking kama.

Wait .....

It took a minute or two for me to analyze what i just saw. So i took a second look and

"Oh My God! Oh my God! I PASSED!! I PASSED!! Eumee i passed the exam!!!" Ani ko na hindi tumitigil sa aking pagtalon talon buhat ng aking tuwa sa pagkapasa sa exam.

"YES you did cousin. AND I AM SO PROUD OF YOU." ani eumee na parang naiiyak.

"Hey mee why are you crying? Dapat nga ako ang maiyak pero bakit parang ikaw ang napasa? Hahaha" ani ko

"Now that you've passed the exam. Wala nakong kasama dito sa California. Ofcourse you'll probably book a ticket now and head back to Manila just like how you planned it. Right?" Sabi ni eumee na di parin tumitigil ang paghupa ng kanyang mga luha.

Now that she mentioned it,
Hindi pa pumapasok sa isip ko ang bumalik muli sa Pilipinas.

"No eumee not now. Now is not the time to show him the woman i've become." Ani ko ng biglang nag ring ang cellphone ko.

Ten Calling..

My brother? What now?

"Hello omorfóś?" Sabi ng kabilang linya.

"Yes kuya?" Ani ko.

"Congratulations little sis. You passed it. Alam ko naman na kaya mo haha because being smart runs in our blood haha" at patuloy syang tumatawa na para bang amuse na amuse.

"Thank you bro. Haha Yeah we are smart" ani ko

"Naiimagine ko na ang mukha ni Dos ngayon haha im sure alam kong maraming connection ang "pabo" na yun at alam na nya ang balita." Biglang nagseryoso ang boses ni kuya.

"We'll let him know. I couldn't care less about him anyways. Sure akong malaking sampal sa pagmumukha ni Dos ang balitang nakarating sa kanya" ani ko at napunaang parang busy si kuya sa kabilang linya.

"Sis i'll catch up with you later. Busy parin dito sa company and I couldn't do something to make Dos do this and help me run our company. If only you are here sabotaging and speaking trash and dirty to gave him a knuckle on his head. Tsk. Bye for now sis. Take care kuya loves you. Congrats again baby sis and please baby take good care of eumee for me will you?"

Nakita kong pumula ang pisngi ni eumee and i swear by the time our eyes met she blushed and turned pink even more. Aba'y nakikinig pala itong isang to!

"Okay kuya. Thank you for congratulating me. And don't worry I'll give Dos a kick someday for doing that to you. Haha I love you too kuya take care." And with that we ended the call.

"He told me I should take good care of you." Ani ko.

"Yeah i heard that awy. And that just made me miss him more." Ani niya.

" But thats a different story stop changing the topic and lets party!" ani nya na parang iniiwasan ang topic about kay kuya. Haaay..

"Mee I'll be here. You don't need to try hiding what you are feeling. Ano pa ang silbi ko kung bakit nandito ako ngayon? Diba? So just smile mee and I promise I will find a way for you and kuya Ten to make it " i smiled at her cause i Know that's the best way to ease the pain she's feeling.

" Salamat Awy. Naiyak ka tuloy imbes matuwa sa pagkapasa mo nang dahil sakin." Ani niya sabay lunas sa natitirang luha nya.

"Uhugin ka kasi hahaha." Ani ko at hinampas niya ang balikat ko na mas nakapagkatawa sakin.

"Tara kain tayo sa labas Awy my treat" and then she went up straight to her room to get ready.

Pumunta nalang din ako sa room ko at nagbihis ng damit para sa gala namin mamaya.

"Awy we'll be using my car and please magmadali ka baka matraffic tayo" sabi ni eumee na tiyak papunta na sa garage.

Dali dali akong lumabas at nilock ang gate at sumakay sa sasakyan.

Nastuck kami sa daan papunta ng mall ng dahil sa traffic kaya nag sasak ako ng headset sa aking cellphone at nakinig ng music sa aking spotify habang si eumee ay may katawag namang iba.

Pinili ko ang musika na pamilyar sa akin.

Bawat liriko ng musika na ito ay tagos na tagos sa aking puso na sinabayan pa ng ulan sa labas.

Napasandal na lamang ako sa salamin ng sasakyan ng biglang may nagtext sa akin.

Unregistered number. So i opened it and i knew the moment i opened it anger crept into my heart and millions of memories came back flashing through my mind.

Hindi ako maaaring magkamali. Walang ibang tao ang nakakaalam ng aking numerk maliban kay alora at kuya ten. HOW DID HE KNOW?

From: 163********

Hey baby. It's been 8 years that I have been missing you and everyday i haven't seen you is everyday i even love you more. Congratulations baby. I knew that you can do it despite the ups and downs this world has to offer. I love you baby. Take care - Y

I deleted the message as soon as i finished reading it. And the fuck happened, a tear escaped my eyes remembering the past.

Sakto din na chorus na nh pinapakinggan ko na musika at mas lalo akong naiyak habang dinadamdam na mga liriko. Bago pako mapansin ni eumee, naging blur na ang lahat sa aking paligid at dinala na ko sa himbing na pagtulog.
