Memoir Love Rewind

Chapter 4

  "Still stubborn and recalcitrant as ever!"

   Di makapaniwalang wika ni Blake habang napapangisi at napapa iling sa ginawa ni Glamiela.

    Na iwan ang kanyang sasakyan na wasak na wasak ang likuran. Mabuti na lang at di siya nagtamo ng sugat o galos dahil, sa mabilis na pagbangga nito sa likuran ng kanyang sasakyan.

Mas lalo siyang nagalit, ng makita na ang asawa mismo ang nakabangga sa kanya dahil nag- alala siya ng husto para dito. Mabuti na lang at ok ito at nagawa pa siyang takasan.

Idinayal niya ang kanyang awtibo.

   " Yes, this is Blake... will you please pick me up here at..." saka tiningnan niya ang lugar kung
nasan siya.

"I'm on the side of the highway just before the Municipal's office."

    " Hey, what happened ?"  tinig ng sa kabilang linya.

      "My wife, smashed the back of my car!"

      " What....?? Your wife ? You saw her...? Did she recognized you..?" halos sunod- sunod na tanong ng sa kabilang linya.

     "No, I don't think..... she recognized me at all .I tried to be casual in front of her but, I think ...she's mad because of what I did yesterday."

    "What are you doing Blake Zhander Mills??? halatang galit na ang sa kabilang linya dahil tinawag siya nito sa kompleto niyang pangalan.

        " I told you to not ignore what we talked about! Remember.. you will pay the consequences of your choice. She must not know!" patuloy na paalala nito sa kanya.

         " I understand but.... I missed her so much....She is in..so much pain because of me. I wanted to hug her so bad, kiss her and protect her. But, I can't do nothing because of stupid rules..! You don't know how I feel everytime I see her and here I am, pretending that she doesn't matter.. to me at all." sagot niya sa kabilang linya habang pinipigil ang mga luha na kanina pa gustong lumabas.

   " I totally understand what you feel. I been there once. You know..when you signed the contract. It is forbidden to tell her that it is you . No matter ,what happen she must not know about you...It is against the law.!! I'll be there in a few minutes." mariing wika nito saka binaba ng sa kabilang linya ang telepono nito.

Sinipa ni Blake ang sasakyan saka, pabalibag na binato ang kanyang awtibo sa kalsada. Galit at pagkamuhi ang kanyang nararamdaman sa mga sandling iyon.

      "What have I done to pay like this..?" nanggagalaiti sa galit niyang wika na di mapigilang umiyak.

      "It's ok baby girl... I will make this right." pangugusap niya sa kawalan ng mahimasmasan.

      " Hop in! " akay ng kanyang sundo.

      " Jemaicah..I didn't noticed your here!" sabay bukas ng pinto ng sasakyan.

Ito ang na hingan niya ng tulong nung mga panahong pagala- gala siya kabilang ibayo ng mundo. Maganda ito at mukhang bata tingnan.  Kahit na palaging sinasabi nito na matanda at matagal na siyang naninirahan dito sa mundo. Kahit na sa tingin niya ay may pagka weird ito alam niyang mabait at matulungin ito.

    "How was your first meeting with her.?" tanong nito ng maka pwesto na siya.

      "I am so happy to see her again, yet.... in pain to see her suffer because of me." He said softly, habang may bahid nang kalungkutan ang kanyang mga mata.
  

      "Well, sometimes we don't always get what we want . There is always a reason behind all these. Someday, you will learn and understand."   pagkakalma nito sa kanya.

      " Is  it wrong to love so much..... and want to be together with the one you love forever..?" nasasaktang tanong niya dito.

Huminga ng malalim ang dalaga saka sumagot.

     " There is nothing wrong with love. But...true love is when you learn to accept and let go. It doesn't mean.. letting go, means letting go of love. You just accept that life is all about learning while you love . If you, truly love each other distance means nothing because, you know where you can find each other. In time dear, you will understand."

mahinahong paliwanag nito habang dahan- dahang nagmamaneho.

      "I wish my wife could drive like you." Pabiro niyang sagot dito na di mapigilang ngumisi at napa iling ng maalala ang ginawa nang kanyang asawa.

Huminga muna siya ng malalim saka muling nagsalita.

     " Ok.. I hope so Jemaicah just drop me off here. Thanks for all your help."

Pagputol niya sa usapan nila ng mapansin na malapit na siya sa paroroonan niya. Tinanguan at nginitian naman siya ng dalaga bilang tugon sa kanya.
