6. Walk-in Closet

Elqenna

Waking up to white walls and ceilings made me frantically panicked. I was only relieved when I felt someone hold my hand. I blinked a few times to make sure I'm seeing the right person because that very moment, I was so sure it's the only person who made me feel more precious than the world.

"Moe."

"Frappie."

Blinking a few more times after hearing that voice, I pulled my hand from his. I pitied myself for believing that it was him.

Ang tanga ko lang, ba't naman darating rito si Raven? Tsk.

"Frappie, mabuti nalang at walang nangyaring masama sa'yo. Pinag-alala mo kami," wika ni Mavvy, bakas sa boses ang lungkot na siyang nagpalingon sa'kin sa kanya.

"Sorry," I whispered without bothering to look at him.

"The doctor said you were fine. It was just a concussion. Negative ang result ng CT Scan at ng ibang tests so pwede na tayong umuwi."

"Is Raven not coming to get me?"I heard myself ask. "Didn't he know?"

Mula sa nag-aalalang expression ng mukha niya, pinalitan ito ng inis. Hindi siya sumagot. He just helped me up and assisted me towards the car.

"Mavvy, kanina pa kita kinakausap. Galit ka ba?"

Hindi parin siya sumagot. Pero hindi naman nakatakas sa paningin ko ang pagkuyom ng kamao niya. I saw his jaw moving too like as if he's only stopping himself from bursting out.

"I'm sorry, okay?! Kung galit ka na nasira ko ang kotse mo, I'll pay you! Kung gusto mo, bilhan pa kita ng bago!" naaasar na sigaw ko sa kanya.

Natahimik naman agad ako ng bigla niyang ihinto ang kotse. Nanlilisik ang mga mata niya ng harapin ako.

"Tama ka nga, Blair. Ang tanga mo," panimula niyang agad na nagpaluha sa'kin. He gritted his teeth and smirked afterwards.

How could he say that! Ang kapal ng mukha niya!

"Sasaktan mo ang sarili mo para bumalik lang si kuya? Alam mo bang ikakamatay ni mommy kapag nalaman niya ang nangyari sa'yo kagabi? Blair, mag-isip ka nga! May bata kang dinadala tapos hindi mo iniingatan ang sarili mo!"

I looked away to avoid his intimidating stare and I realized that it was already morning. The sun was already up too. Ilang oras din pala ako sa hospital. Binalik ko ang atensiyon ko kay Mavvy na ngayon ay halatang naiinis parin. I felt sorry but I was too arrogant to apologize. Though I was so angry at him for making me this upset, I can't protest because he was right. I'm stupid. Nakaka-annoy lang talaga na ayaw niya akong kausapin kanina.

"Nakakaasar ka, alam mo ba 'yon?" Medyo kumalma na ang mga mata niya. Somehow, gumaan ng kunti ang pakiramdam ko. "Tapos sasabihin mo pang galit ako dahil sa kotse? Ano'ng tingin mo sa'kin? Frappie, mas mahalaga ka kaysa sa kahit na anong bagay."

"I'm sorry that I'm stupid! Okay??? At para malaman mo, hindi ko ginustong mangyari 'yong kagabi! It was an accident, Mavvy!" I cried, hurt at his accusation that I planned involving myself in an accident to get Raven back. Hindi ako suicidal. "It was an accident."

He gave me an apologetic gaze and unexpectedly, niyakap niya nalang ako. I was too stunned to shove him away. Besides, I needed it-to feel his warmth and remind myself that I am not alone.

"Sorry," bulong niya matapos akong yakapin. "I'm sorry, Frappie."

"It was an accident,"pag-uulit ko, ngayon ay mas naiiyak sa hindi ko matukoy na dahilan. Ayaw paawat sa pagtulo ng luha ko.
