TWISTED TIME [completed]

FINAL CHAPTER

Mallory's POV

My head hurts and every inch of my body hurts.

I slowly opened my eyes and all I can see is white. Nasa langit naba ako?

I can feel that something or should I say someone is holding my hand.

It was

Mom.

'M-mom?' Tawag ko sa kanya

Parang naalimpungatan naman siya sa tawag ko. At napabangon siyang bigla

'Mal anak!  Thank God your okay!' Sabi niya at nagising naman si Candy na natutulog sa sofa, at lumapit sa akin

'Ano po bang nangyari?'

'Hindi mo ba naaalala?  Nawala sa habang naliligo tayo sa beach at nakita ka nalang ng mga rescuers sa isang isla malapit roon. Ang you've been sleeping for months'

Nagulat naman ako sa sinabi ni Mommy like ang huli kong nalala was..

Was..

Was...

'Mom? B-bakit ganun? Ang sakit ng ulo ko,  and I - I can't remember a thing ang huli ko lang na naalala was my first day of class that's all'

Napakunot naman ang noo ni mommy sa sinabi ko.

'Wait tatawag ako ng doctor.'

Nangdumating ang doctor at tinanong ako ng kung ano ano at kilala ko lahat ng tinatanong nyang kapamilya ko pero sa tanong na kung ano ang huli kong naalala ay ang sagot ko lang ay ang first day of school kung saan nakikita ko ang sarilo ko na nagpapakilala sa harao ng klase at wala na. Para bang kahapon lang nangyari. Sabi niya everything is normal naman daw maaring nagsuffer lang daw ako ng head trauma dahil sa maaring nabagok ang ulo ko or something.

But there this thing in me na para bang may pangungulila.

I don't know.

1 year later

Here I am now walking.

Graduating na ako.  And about the incident that they told me?  Wala talaga akong naalala. I just found out na nag hilay si Mom at si Andrew dahil nag cheat daw siya.  Pero I saw how sorry Andrew was so I told mom to give him a chance and she did love never fails,  and today?  I call him dad.  I don't know but after that incident, I felt happy mom and I were okay we all spend time together as Family. And I've never been happy like this.

I was about ti cross the street when I saw a men around at my age na binubully ng gilid ng daan. Kaya nilapitan ko sila. Napagalam ko na hinuhuthutan nila ang lalaking to.

'If I were you all,  aalis na ako kung ayaw nyong basagin ko ang mga pagmumukha nyo' sabi ko habang pumagit sa kanila.

'And what could a small girl like you can do?' Sabi nung lalaki

Susuntokin ko sana sila nang isa isa silang humiga sa sahig at nakita ko nalang na ang may gawa nun ay ang lalaking ililigtas ko sana.

'Mind your own business next time miss. Wag mo na ulit aking ililigtas'

As I look at him,  parang kilala ko siya. Think I saw him somewhere.

Binaliwa ko nalang siya at dumiretyo na sa school na at sa classroom.  New school new life.

Pumasok na ang teacher pero dahil transferee ako,  hindi muna ako pinapasok dahil ipakikilala daw muna kami.  Marami dahil kami. And that boy kanina ay tranferee rin.

Nauna siyang nagpakilala sa akin

'Good morning. I'm King Liam Castro.' Pakilala nya he reallg looks familiar.

Ako na ang susunod. 

As I stood in front of the class,  I saw his eyes and Itvwasvlike talking to me,  saying 'I am happy your here'

'Good morning everyone, I am Mallory Chavez, 18. My name might sound sad, that is because my life started not well but life taught me well that's why,  today I live a happy life 'cause we can't tell what will hapoen tomorrow.'
