Forgiveness Ceremony
Geyl's POV
All the Seekers were here in my condotel because I cooked food and automatically we will eat together, again. We broke the rules and set new rules on our own. We discarded the rule they set in because they deserve to know that we are not puppet. If this is just a show then we have the full power to make it a worse one.
Well, kung mapapag-usapan lang ang masama, I think that would be about Jenyi and I not having conversation because...
"Do you have boyfriend or someone---" tanong ni Rougue sa tabi ko. We were in the balcony.
"I have someone," usal ko at lumayo sa kanya. Hindi na ako nagtataka kung bakit ilap sa amin si Jenyi.
Napapatanong na nga si Rougue kung may away ba daw sila ni Jenyi noon dahil napapansin niyang sa lahat ng Seekers ay ito lamang ang halos hindi niya makausap. And Hzanny answered naman na they always fight. Mali ata ang pagkakaintindi ni Rougue, akala niya magkaaway talaga sila nito. He even presume na Jenyi's act of being lonely is because she's still mourning for the lost of Standey. Well...
I don't know. I have no rights to explain that he and Jenyi were in relationship before. I wanted to tell Rougue but it takes too much time since I want to tell him clearly pero sa tuwing magkakalapit kami ay may nagiging mali. The unhappiness is visible in Jenyi's face.
Kaya nga umiiwas na lang ako.
Pumasok ako pabalik at nagtungo agad sa kusina. Iniwan ko roon si Rougue. I don't want to witness how he reacted on that attitude of mine. Additionally it felt so wrong that he is interested on me.
Naabutan kong naglalagay ng pagkain si Jenyi sa lamesa. I helped her. Nanlaki pa ang mata ko nang sa wakas ay kausapin niya ako.
"Geyl," aniya. Mahina ang boses niya patunay na tamlay talaga siya. Hinawakan ko ang kamay niya. At nang lumabas na si Rougue mula kwarto ko, galing siyang balcony, ay pumasok kami roon ni Jenyi para mag-usap nang masinsinan.
"Sasama pa rin ako sa mission. I'm sorry sa sinabi ko tungkol kay Standey. I'm sorry hmm? Just don't stop me when we see the president. Pepektusan ko 'yon, I swear! 'Yong malakas. 'Wag ako ang pigilan mo kasi si Hzanny, she's planing to spit on him. Kaya, please," sambit ni Jenyi,
Napangiti ako at agad ko siyang niyakap.
"Thank you! I promise I will not disappoint you."
"Don't promise."
"Yeah, wala talagang nangyayari sa promise na 'yan so, I'll do it! "
Days passed. Rougue found his place. He's with Roman lagi and distant to girls. Hzanny's still crying at night and she's afraid to continue. She said whatever what I want to do with the mission, she's in. On the other hand, Jenyi's always miserable.
Seven days before Christmas. Tomorrow will be the day! Reminding myself always we should be completely ready on the sixth day before Christmas.
Sixth day before Christmas? We should be six but the thinking that we are now just five hurts me a lot.
Tinatagan ko na lang ang loob ko. Kailangan kasing magpatuloy. Hindi p'wedeng huminto lang.
"I'm ready na bukas," said Jenyi.
We were on our sofa, enjoying our hot chocolate in that evening.
