"You're drinking again Kristoffer."
I looked back at Mama who was standing on my room's doorway. Napailing na lang ako dahil hanggang ngayon, my mom still acts as if I am still his two year old son and that she can easily barge into my room whenever she wants.
"Nagpapaantok lang Ma." Sagot ko. Ngumuso siya kaya natawa na lang ako. I hugged my mother tightly before putting my beer somewhere else. Tinitigan iyon ng Mama ko na para bang nakakairita iyon at gusto na lang niya iyong pasabugin.
"Liar. You might be twenty seven Kristoffer Rome Falcon but you're still my son! Nagpapaantok my ass."
"Ma.."
"Ikaw naman kasi. It's your fault din naman. If I am not your mother, ipapatapon talaga kita somewhere." Reklamo niya. My smile faded and Mama realized that what she said went to me. Nagbago ang timpla ng mukha niya bago hinawakan ang kamay.
"W-what I actually mean is, it's been three years Rome. Kahit si August at Shana hindi na siya mahanap. I think that, probably it is high time for you..to try with another girl?"
Bumitaw ako kay Mama bago umiling. "Ma naman. If that is even possible di sana matagal ko ng ginawa."
"But Rome, she might be with somebody else now, married pa nga! We don't know it!"
"I don't care if she is married or what! I spent three years waiting for her and if I have to spend the rest of my lifetime waiting for her then I'm gonna do it." Anas ko. My hands are shaking once again, damn. I sat on the edge of my bed before I pulled my hair.
"I'm going to steal her Ma. If she's with some asshole, I'm going to steal her." anas ko. Lumapit si Mama sa akin bago ako niyakap.
"Oh dear. Sa lahat ng mamanahin mo kay Ethan, iyan pa. If that's what makes you happy, then go." Aniya. Mama smiled at before kissing my forehead.
"But you better sleep now. It's way past your bed time." Aniya natatawa. God Ma!
"Ma!"
"Goodnight baby." Utas ni Mama bago lumabas. I just shook my head and closed my door.
Noong wala na si Mama ay agad kong kinuha ulit iyong beer na nasa nighttable. I drank from it again and went to my window. I know it's useless but I was hoping to see the light in her room once again.
Back then, I spend my nights looking at her while she paints or when she dances at her favorite music uncaringly. I really love it when my Yan becomes so carefree and happy.
Napapikit ako ng mariin. It's been three years and yet we still can't find her. Si Serise ang huli niyang nakausap, but that damn brat don't want to cooperate. Sese said she dropped Ianna on Timbuktu dahil may flight daw ito papuntang Mars at may kikitain na alien. I so want to wring her neck that time.
