[ BMB🥀 #2 ] FORGETTING YOU 💭

CHAPTER 14 - Secrets

Bata: I know it's hard to believe that someone like me, i mean im just a kid and how can you believe me right? But.....

Cassandra: Okey baby, but why do you care so much about me ba?

Bata: Because........

(Naupo naman si Cassandra para pantayan ang tangkad ng bata)

Cassandra: Because?

Bata: Because, i think i owe you something, cause i guess im the reason why things happened from the past, im the reason why you can't remember the most important thing in your life, im the reason why you suffered a lot, and im sorry for causing you trouble, for ruining your life.

Cassandra: Haha. You're just a kid so paano naman mangyayari yon?

Bata: It's my mom's pregnancy days........to me. It was just a misunderstanding........but it caused you a lot of pain and made your life miserable, i guess.

(Pilitin mang intindihin ni Cassandra ang lahat ng sinasabi ng bata pero ito'y nanatiling malabo sa kanya)

Bata: Bago ko po pala malimutan gusto ko pong ibigay sayo ito.

(Sabay abot ng isang notebook)

Cassandra: Ano ito?

Bata: Notebook? I think a journal.

Cassandra: Pero bakit ibinibigay mo sakin ito?

Bata: Dahil sayo po iyan, ikaw ang nagmamay-ari niyan. Believe me or not ikaw na po ang bahala basta ibinabalik ko lang po sayo ang bagay na hindi magawa ng mga nakapalibot sayo.

(Sabay ngiti)

Cassandra: Haha. Really?

Bata: Yah. Sana po makatulong sayo.

Cassandra: Thank you? Pero teka saan mo ito nakita? Saka pano mo nalamang sakin ito?

Bata: All because of my Dad, and eventually your cousin. Sigi po i gotta go, my Dad is waiting for me.

(Sabay yakap ng mabilis kay Cassandra at pagkatapos ay patakbo na itong umalis, samantalang naiwan naman si Cassandra mula sa kinatatayuan nila kanina)

Sarah: What's that Mommy?

(Pukaw ni Sarah dito)

Cassandra: A notebook? Journal perhaps.

Sarah: Yours?

Cassandra: Yes? Someone told me.

Sarah: Who? Ate Din?

Cassandra: No, but somehow from someone who cares for me.

Sarah: Really Mom?

Cassandra: I guess so.

Sarah: Mom?

Cassandra: Um?

Sarah: What if i've been keeping a secret from you for a long time?

Cassandra: Lahat ng tao may sikreto anak nasa sa atin nalang yon kung paano natin ito itatago, minsan nakakapagsinungaling tayo, minsan nananahimik nalang but one thing is for sure we're keeping secret or secrets because we're protecting something or someone and we can't blame people for that.

Sarah: Hindi ka magagalit?

Cassandra: Why would i? If i also have secrets?

Dindin: Saaaaars!

(Tawag nito kay Sarah habang patakbong palapit sa direksiyon nila Sarah at Cassandra)

Dindin: Hey Tati are you okey?
