Kung Saan Tayo Natapos

7: Amari

"dapat umuwi ka na."

Sabi ko kay king, pero umiling siya at nginitian ako,

"asthma attack lang 'to king, makakauwi din ako bukas"  well technically, mamaya kasi 2:00 na ng hating gabi.

"is this your first attack in four years gia?" he asked, I nodded,

"kaya pala wala ka ng inhaler sa bulsa." he said,

"umuwi ka na to rest king," I said, he was still wearing the clothes he wore in the interview, which made me worry.

"can I borrow my phone?" I asked him, he looked at me, puzzled.

"i'll apologize to tito boy" I explained,  He smiled

"okay na, sabi niya okay lang daw, tsaka health reasons naman gi, balik nalang tayo pag okay ka na, hindi pa tapos yung fast talk eh, exciting oa naman daw yun." he said, I nodded, but made a mental reminder na itext si tito boy when I get better.

We stayed quiet for awhile, but the silence was killing me.

"hindi ka ba hinahanap ni kryza?" I asked him, umiling siya.

"she knows." he stated, which annoyed me, ang iksi sumagot parang may pinagiipunan.

"she's chill ha, considering you're here with me"

"hindi kita ex plus she's not an insecure person." he said, probably not thinking about what he said.

"kung andito si Amari, ano kaya tayo ngayon?" I couldn't help but ask, King smiled,

"masaya, kompleto," he answered.

"I'm sorry for leaving king." I whispered,

"I'm sorry for letting you." he answered.

I close my eyes, wanting to fall asleep and drown the pain, king's hand were on mine, and I felt peace.

"Georgiana!" I woke up to the voice of ashton, after 4 years of living with him, kabisado ko na boses niya,

"Quiet please, my head hurts." I said, he nodded, I look at the couch and saw Solia playing with her iPad, and king no where to be found.

"he left when I got here." he answered my non existent question.

Ate Tin told me to rest muna for three days before we continue the shooting for the movie, I thanked her and the director, and I apologized for any delay that I caused.

Hindi pa kami nagkikita ni king after the hospital, walang tawag or text or ever like sa ig stories ko.

I spent the three days with Ashton and Solia, since malapit na sila umuwi sa Germany, I'll stay here until the shooting ends and a month after the movie is released.

"good morning gia!" bati sa akin ni ate tin, ngumiti ako,

"okay ka na ha? Start na tayo ulit ng filming!" she said enthusiastically.

Nang makarating kami sa set everyone asked me if I was okay na, which I nodded and thanked everyone for their concern.

I stopped dead in my tracks when I saw king hugging kryza, he was wearing a hoodie, and kryza was wearing a dress, nagtago ako sa may likod ng pader.

King was whispering something in her ear, probably singing something, kryza giggles and hugs him tighter, king sighes contentedly.

"see you tomorrow baba, Happy Anniversary!" kryza said loud enough for me to hear, king kissed her forehead and then her nose and then her lips. I closed my eyes.

"masakit kasi dati ikaw yun." bulong ni ate tin, yinakap niya ako ng mahigpit. Pero walang luha na lumabas sa aking mga mata.

"ANONG IBIG MONG SABIHIN? BAKIT PARANG AKO SINISISI MO?SINUBUKAN KO NAMAN LAHAT!" sigaw ni caila, nakakunot ang noo ni andrei,

"kung ginawa mo lahat, bakit ka nakikipaghiwalay?" mariing tanong ni andrei kay caila, pumikit si caila at umupo na lamang.

"kasi ang sakit sakit na andrei, hindi lang ako nasasaktan, pati yung nasa paligid natin, pati ikaw, nadadamay sila." mahinang sagot ni caila, lumuhod si andrei para punasan ang tumutulong luha ni caila,

"mahal na mahal kita andrei, pero hindi ako selfish. Ayoko na masaktan ka, at yung tao sa paligid natin." bulong ni caila,

"mahal din naman kita caila, hindi ba sapat yun?" tanong ni andrei, na ngayo'y nakaupo na sa tabi ni caila.

"hindi sapat na mahal lang kita drei, dapat sakto tayo, dapat gusto ng mundo." sagot ni caila,

"tangina naman caila, puro gusto ng mundo iniisip mo? Paano naman yung gusto mo? Paano yung gusto ko?" tanong ni andrei, pumikit si caila,

"gusto kita, gusto ko kasama ka, pero hindi iyon ang gusto ng mundo, kaya hihintayin ko hanggang sa payagan na niya tayo." sagot ni caila, habang patuloy na umaagos ang luha.

"edi tapusin na muna natin dito caila." sagot ni andrei at tumayo para umalis na.

"dito ulit pag pwede na?" tanong ni caila, ngumiti si andrei pero hindi ito umabot sa mga mata niya.

"tignan natin kung pwede pa." at naglakad palayo si andrei.

"And CUT!" sigaw ni direk, inabutan ako ng ilang staff ng tissue at tubig, nagpasalamat ako, pinunasan naman ni King yung pawis ko, I thanked him. He smiled and gave me a thumbs up.

Direk commended me, and Ate Tin said nakakadala daw yung iyak ko, ako din nadala eh, nadala kasi totoo yung sakit.
