Sarah parked her car and rested her forehead on the steering wheel. She was tired...tired and numb. She was angry too. Hindi niya alam kung dapat siyang magpasalamat dahil parang napagod na din siyang umiyak.
After their morning endorsements around 7am, she quickly gathered her things and didn’t say a word to anyone. Normally, malambing siya sa lahat ng residente, co-interns niya at sa mga nurses and orderly. Pero, di na niya nakuhang magpaalam. They kept their distance because there were whispers that she was the real girlfriend of Gerald Anderson, and given the infamous picture that was now viral, they pitied her.
And so, there she was, parked in the basement of the condo where she lives, thinking. Angry. Confused. Doubtful. Sad. Angry. Better angry. She started to feel her temper rising...Makakatikim sa ‘kin ‘yang Heraldong yan.
She stepped out of the car and banged the door. Maski sarili niya nagulat sa lakas ng pagkakabagsak ng pinto. The guard greeted Sarah as she entered the elevator but she didn’t even notice him.
Maghanda ka...subukan mong magsinungaling at malilintikan ka sa ‘kin.
The elevator stopped in the lobby and the door opened. Her neighbour, Samuel, who never hid his crush on her, came in. He seemed like he came from a jog. “Hi Sars!”
She curtly answered, “Pwede ba Sam?! Wala ako sa mood! “ , which surprised him as she was usually cheerful and friendly. Napatiklop ang binata and pretended to listen to his ipod instead.
She reached her floor and got out quickly. By the door, she fished her keys from her bag, and took a long time trying to find it. She was pissed off.
Murphy’s freakin’ law! “Argh!!!! ....BWISET!”
When she found it, she forcefully put it in and went inside, banged the door some more, which rattled the wall lamp and mirror by her mini foyer. She didn’t care.
MABASAG NA ANG MABASAG!
She tossed her bag by the couch, left her shoes near it and entered her room. She took off her clothes and in her haste, almost tore off the buttons of her blouse.
“PATI DAMIT KO AYAW MAG-COOPERATE! BWISET!! KASALANAN NI HERALDO 'TONG LAHAT! “
She didn’t enjoy her shower, which she usually did after a long duty. Her mind was reeling. She had mental images of Gerald and Jessy..in the car...on that damn couch. She started to say her thoughts out loud,
“Kung anggulo lang ‘yon, anong ginagawa ng babaing ‘yun sa kotse...at bakit nakataas pa ‘yung damit ng mokong na ‘yun?!!! HUMANDA KA!...wag mo kong madaan daan sa flowers...kahit kalbuhin mo ang Holland kakabili mo ng tulips, ‘di ka makakalusot sa ‘kin!”
She was absently scrubbing herself using a loofah ... “ ARAY KO!” Sarah realized na sa gigil niya ay napadiin ang pagkuskos niya sa balat niya.
After her shower, she quickly changed wearing pajamas and a loose shirt. She sat by the couch waiting for him. Her arms were crossed, her face serious.
After several minutes, her doorbell rang. She left the door unlocked so as not to be bothered opening the door. Sarah shouted,
“BUKAS 'YAN. MAY KAMAY KA, PUMASOK KA!”
