Jilted.
I woke up with a throbbing pain on my whole body. Parang naparalisado ako, inilibot ko ang mata at nakitang nasa kuwarto ako ni wyatt sa bahay ng kanyang mga magulang. Parang anlamig naman masyado rito sa kuwarto. Napagpasyahan kong tumayo sana nang akmang igagalaw ko pa lang ang binti ay sobrang pagkirot ang naramdaman sa pagitang hita ko. Kinabahan ako, did i do that thing? I don't have any clothes on. Tiningnan ko ang katabi ko, he's quitely sleeping. Nakasubsob ang mukha sa unan. It's just three in the morning, kaya naman i hurriedly get up and choose to do the best thing. It's to escape. I'll try my best upang hindi nila mahalata na may nangyaring kakaiba kagabi. Even though i'm still sore and my head was pounding in a sheer pain. Naglakad ako patungong kuwarto sa guest room, tumabi ako kay reigan na walang pakeng nakanganga habang nakahilata sa kama. I'll try to sleep and forget that we did that thing. Even if i'm happy wala namang kasiguraduhang masaya rin siya. Ipinikit ko ang mata at nagpadala sa antok.
May marahang tumatapik sa pisngi ko. "Hoy ate girl..." I blink twice and yawn.
"Get up" it's reigan, nakapusod na ang mahaba nitong buhok.
"Uh"
"I said get up, mag-aalmusal na te'" she said with sarcasm. Hinila niya ang braso ko para makabangon ako, naramdaman ko ang pananakit ng balakang.
"Susunod na lang ako...maghihilamos muna" i said as an assurance. Pinilit kong umalis sa kama kahit na kumikirot ang nasa pagitan ng aking hita. That was my first, maybe i planned it but i never knew i'll execute it that way. Tinignan ko ang sarili sa salamin halos malaglag ang panga ko sa nakita sa aking collar bone, mabuti na lamang ay hindi masyadong halata ang hickeys na ginawa niya sa akin. Fuck! I remember how he kiss me last night, i thought i'll died like a prune but i'm thankful it happened to me. I stare on the hickeys in different part of my body. Huminga ako ng malalim, tinanggal ko ang pagkakapusod ng buhok upang hindi makita ang kiss marks. I immediately go downstair dahil mukhang pinag-aantay ko yata sila. I don't know why i walk naturally like i'm not sore.
Nakapuwesto na ang mag-anak na mga eleazar, the smell of fried rice with garlic invade my nostrils.
"Buenas dias" Bati ni tita carli sa akin.
"Good morning din po" i said politely.
Their table was for big feast. Maraming nakahandang iba't ibang putahe, aakalaing mong piyesta dahil sa dami ng nakahain. On the left side of the table there is a one cute little boy and both Ditto and Akken Eleazar. On the right side was me, reigan, calli and ambrose. Sa magkabilang side naman ng lamesa ay nakaupo ang mag-asawang eleazar. There's a one chair left, siya na lang naman ang wala, sure it was for him.
Tita carli broke the silence, "I prepare some paella and relyonong bangus baka gusto nyo magbaon?" She ask still with a smile. I wonder, how can she manage to smile like this? She's so calm and sophisticated. She screams with elegance.
"I'm going to take some tita...i'm lazy when it comes to cooking" reigan chuckled.
"Can i have some to?" The cute little boy near Akken and Ditto.
"Of course" tita carli clap her hands with a gleam on her eyes.
"Thanks po ma" sabi naman ni akken, still shy.
"Maliit na bagay—" pinigil kong matawa, she looks cool having that kind of gesture. Like mother like son!
"Eh ikaw mon?" Napamulagat ako ng mata.
"A-Ah e..." Naagaw ang atensyon nila ng may magsalita sa likuran.
"Ako na lang magdadala ma, baon na namin nila ambrose" his hair was disheveled. His ephicantric fold were hooded. Halatang bagong gising nga. Damn! Why does it still feel cold when there's a fog here. Nagsimulang magreplay ang kagagahang nagawa ko kagabi, those hot feverish kisses, touches and whispers.
