XL 44
A lot can surely happen in two days. Yung mga mapanghusgang mata ng mga tao sa paligid ko ay halos hindi na makatingin ng diretso.
Since Sir Marco found out about the truth and the post was reported and removed, people began to treat me like the wind once again. Probably because no one has the guts to apologize for how they treated me kaya they're back to ignoring my presence.
Pero okay lang ako. I can live with that. At least they know they were wrong. I'll just keep those screenshots I took so I always have concrete evidence of the grim things they said about me.
Nasa klase ako nang biglang in-excuse ako ng student assistant na nagduduty sa opisina ni Sir Marco. Aniya'y gusto raw akong makausap ni Sir, ASAP.
Pinayagan ako ng prof kaya pumunta ako sa opisina niya kaagad. As usual, he served coffee and had a warm smile on his face. I hope it's not as fickle as Sofia's. Ngingitian ka ngayon, tapos iinsultuhin ka bukas. Lakas makagago.
"Upo ka, Denzel. I hope you weren't in the middle of an examination when my SA pulled you out of class." He said.
"Hindi naman po, nagdidiscuss lang. Ano po ba ang sasabihin niyo?"
He took a sip of his coffee, tapos inilapag niya ulit iyon sa mesa sa gitna namin.
"I know it's a bit late but I want to apologize for all the mess you've been through. I'm partly responsible. Pasensya ka na." Aniya. Nagulat ako doon. Hindi ko inasahan na siya pa ang hihingi ng dispensa.
"Sir, hindi naman po kayo ang may kasalanan. Wag po kayong mag-apologize sa akin."
"Tungkol pala sa talagang may kasalanan, I am conducting an investigation and rest assured na kapag nalaman ko kung sino ang nasa likod nito, sa prefect of discipline ang bagsak niya at expulsion ang parusa sa kaniya."
"Salamat po sa lahat, Sir Marco. Pero kung pwede po akong mag-suggest, kausapin po ninyo muna sana ng masinsinan yung taong yun, kung sino man siya. I want to know what the motives are. And if it's possible, suspension nalang po sana at huwag na expulsion. Salamat po ulit. Babalik na po ako sa klase."
"Teka," pigil niya. "Nakauwi na si Treble sa bahay. Hindi mo ba siya pupuntahan?"
Umiling ako. "Hindi po. Hindi iyon ikakatuwa ng inyong asawa."
"Si Sofia?" His brow raised.
"Opo, she thought I told you about her pregnancy so she went to my house on a holiday morning, to throw insults at me and prohibit me from seeing Treble. Nung pumunta ako sa ospital, she had ordered the nurses to not let visitors in. Hindi po ako nagsusumbong o naghahanap ng kakampi, but I think you ought to know. After all, asawa mo po siya at ginagalang siya ni Treble."
He looked really flustered. "Bakit ikaw ang pumasok sa isip niya? It was Serenity who told me!"
"Po?" My eyes widened. "Si Serenity?!" Did she... eavesdrop on our conversation? But why would she tell Sir Marco about it? Anong motibo niya?
"Oo," he nodded. "Truth is, Serenity did not like the fact that my wife was hiding her pregnancy from me as if she doesn't trust me at all. Kaya hindi raw nakatiis itong si Serenity at sinabi niya sa akin. I'm sorry if Sofia displaced her anger towards you. Pagsasabihan ko siya. She was wrong."
That's how you do it! Kahit asawa mo yan (or pamilya mo for that matter), kailangan mong i-reprimand tuwing may maling ginawa. Hindi mo kakampihan o pagtatakpan ang mali just because "pamilya" mo siya.
Besides, no one is too old for a little lesson on GMRC.
"For the first time, natuwa ako sa inasal ni Serenity." Saad ko. I'm actually grateful that she was there that very day.
