Chapter 18: Meet and Greet
It's been 3 weeks since I went here.
This is the day that both I don't want to come and want to come. They will visit here. And now, I was thinking about what Ki told me a while ago.
"Ikaw ang susundo sa kanila sa Airport Duri kasama si Jun."
"What the heck Ki?! You can command Solomon or Abby, or even the soldiers but not me. Not me."
"You need to accept it."
"The heck?! No! Ayoko!"
"Delta, just do it. Just follow my order as one of the P. O. D members."
Napahinga na lamang ako ng malalim sabay tingin sa direksiyon ni Jun na kanina pa hindi mapakali. Isa pa ito eh. Tsk.
Agad ko siyang nilapitan at hinawakan ito sa balikat. Medyo masakit pa nga ang ulo ko pero bahala na.
"Let's go."
Inalis naman niya ang aking kamay sa kanyang balikat at tinignan ako nito ng masama.
"Gyeong will go here. Hindi niya alam na kasama ako sa P. O. D Duri! Hindi niya rin alam na nandito ako sa Germany! Shit!"
Binatukan ko naman siya.
"Then she will be surprised. What's the matter?"
Napailing naman siya.
"Matt will go with her! Tsk. Litse talaga yong kambal ni Min eh!"
Napatawa na lang ako sa inasal niya. Parang naglaho saglit ang takot na nararamdaman ko.
"Ikaw na magdrive Jun. Medyo masakit pa ang ulo ko."
Napailing na lang siya at tuluyan ng pumasok sa sasakyan.
"No. Ikaw lang magdrive, hindi ko feel ang magdrive ngayong araw eh. Wala ka man lang sasabihin? Hindi ka ba kinakabahan na makikita muna ulit si Selene? Si Min?"
Ang daming tanong ng bwisit na'to. Mukha ba akong hindi kinakabahan? I just don't want to mind it, at baka mas sasakit lang ang ulo ko.
"Why would I? I need to accept the truth Jun. Mag-drive ka na nga! Nagiging emotional na tayo dito, bading ka ba, huh?!"
Sinipa naman niya ako sa paa kung saan yong tinamaan ako ng baril.
"What the heck?!" reklamo ko sabay sipa rin sa may sugat niya sa paa.
"Ugh! Tara na nga!"
Napailing na lang ako at tumingin sa labas ng bintana. Medyo hindi malakas ang snow ngayon, but I can still feel the coldness of the weather. Climate has really changed. When we will be wake up with this kind of problem?
Hahayaan na lang ba ng mga tao na masira ang mundong ginagalawan nila? Tsk. Wala rin naman silang pakialam unless, something bad will happen that might be very hard for them to find a cure, to find a solution.
Ika nga nila, nasa huli ang pagsisisi. And I hate it.
What will happen to us tomorrow will depend on our choices. What will happen to our future will depend on how we work for it. How we work to take care of the things that will save us. Tsk. Humans became more toxic every day.
