Lethe (COMPLETED)

Chapter 25

Xyrgian's POV

"Daddy, where is mommy?" tanong sa akin ni Sky.

"U-Uh, s-she's with your lola."

"Okay, daddy. Anyway, can I ask you a question?" bigla ay tanong nya.

Ano kayang tatanungin netong batang 'to? Kinabahan naman ako bigla.

"Sure, what is it?"

"About... about the two of you." sabi nya na syang ikinagulat ko. "How's your relationship with mommy?"

"U-Uh, w-we're good."

"You know, Dad. I should sue you from what you did."

Fvxk. 'Di ko alam ang sinasabi nya!

"I-I'm sorry."

"You should. You left us." seryoso nyang sabi.

Bigla ay parang nasaktan ako sa sinabi nya, hindi ko alam kung bakit parang nasaktan ako.

"And then you're back, like nothing happened." galit nya akong tinignan.

Teka, bata ba 'tong kaharap ko?? Parang hindi. He's so mature.

"It's better that mom isn't here, I don't wanna ask you this while mom is in front of us. But, Dad... Why did you do that?? Why did you left us??" naluluha nyang sabi.

"I-I'm sorry, Sky. K-Kinailangan ko lang mag-trabaho—

"Nagtratrabaho din si mommy, but she didn't left me."

Ang hirap palang magpanggap -.- but... As I've said, hindi eto pagpapanggap. Talagang aakuhin ko si Sky.

"I'm sorry."

"Stop saying sorry when you didn't really meant it. You're just hurting me! You're just hurting us! You didn't know what mom suffered! She suffered so much! She suffered from pain, she suffered from everything! She suffered from everything..." huminto sya saka tinulak ako. "In everything that you did."

Napalunok nalang ako. Hindi ko alam kung bakit parang talagang tinamaan ako sa sinabi ng batang 'to. There's really something..

"I'll go to my room and rest." sabay alis nya sa harapan ko.

I need to talk to Maureen.

***

"What?" bungad na tanong nya pagkarating ko palang sa opisina nya.

"Tell me everything."

"If... you'll gonna believe me, why not?"

"I will believe you this time." I said.

She smiled. Nilabas nya ang isang kahon, hindi ko alam kung anong meron do'n. Pero nang buksan nya 'yon ay nagulat ako kung anong laman no'n.

"This is your book. This is the book you created while you were at your highschool." sunod naman na inilabas nya ay ang isang laptop. "Dito mo ginawa ang mga kwento. Open ypur wattpad account, and you will see."

"But I don't know what's my password or username—

"Your laptop password was her." mukhang alam ko kung sino ang tinutukoy nya.

At kumabog bigla ang dibdib ko nang malamang tama nga... na pangalan nya nga.

"Buksan mo lang ang application na 'yon, your account was never signed off. And then when you already opened it, go to the message area. Basahin mo ang pinagsasasabi mo kay Yazzi noon."
