Charot lang. May epilogue pa po :)
Chandelier
My cousin shook his head. His eyes are looking at me intimately. I want to escape! But how? Tinignan ko ang bawat sulok ng kwarto. Through the window? Nah, mamamatay ako. Through running? Nah, siguradong mahahabol niya ako at may pagkakataon pa siyang tawagin ang mga kalahi niya, mas lalo akong malalagot kung ganoon. Napalunok ako. Poor me, I can't do anything but to rub my forehead with the back of my palm.
"Bihis lang ako." I gave him a crooked smile.
Lumapit ako sa closet at kumuha ng damit saka mabilisang nagbihis. I'm afraid na baka tawagan niya sila Kuya!
Paglabas ay naupo ako sa kama habang siya ay nakatayo at kuno't noong nakatingin sa akin habang naka-crossed arms.
Napabuga ako ng hininga bago magsalita. "Hiwalay na kami, Connor."
"What?!" he shouted.
Napahawak ako sa tainga at napapikit. What's wrong with all these men? Bakit ang hilig nilang manigaw?
"Totoo. Kahapon pa."
Nagtagis ang bagang niya. "What did that man do to you, Traiva?"
"Ah, binuntis?" I joked at tumawa ng pagak ngunit lalo lamang siyang sumimangot.
"He hurt you?" tanong niya. Namumula na ang kanyang mestisong balat sa galit.
Umiling ako at napatyo. "No!"
"Tell me the truth or else..." may panggigil niyang sabi.
"Relax. Wag kang OA." asik ko.
His jaw clenched. "Traiva!"
I rolled my eyes. "Don't get mad at him. It's all because of misunderstanding. And it's all my fault."
"What happened?"
Ngumuso ako napaupo ulit sa kama. "I'm the one who broke up with him."
"And?" agad niyang tanong.
"You know, I'm super irrational and moody. Nag-away kami, at nakipaghiwalay ako."
He cocked his head at napataas ang kilay. "Pumayag siya?"
"I hurt him so much, Connor," sabi ko na nagpatango sa kanya.
Bad!
"He didn't know you are pregnant." he concluded.
"Yes."
"What's your plan now?" tanong niya ng mahinahon.
"I want to say sorry to him. He's the love of my life, Connor."
He's forehead furrowed. "Where is he?"
"I don't know."
Tinignan ko ang pinsan ko at kahit na mukha siyang galit ay nakitaan ko ng awa ang kanyang tingin.
He sighed. "You want to talk to him?"
"Of course."
"Alright, I'll help you." aniya at tumayo saka kinuha ang phone sa bulsa at lumapit sa bintana.
"His number's out of coverage."
"I think he doesn't want me to talk to him?" malungkot kong sabi.
Lumapit sa akin si Connor at hinawakan ang kamay ko.
"Instead of stressing yourself too much, why don't you visit a doctor today?. You need to get prenatal care to ensure the health of you and your baby."
"Hindi ako mapapanatag hangga't hindi kami nakakapag-ayos, Connor. I badly need to talk to him."
