Lea's Point Of View

I found out my self lying at the bed, and all what happened yesterday, It wasn't still sinking in my mind. It's a month, a month full of love and pain. Natuon ang atensyon ko sa isang orasan, 7, and I am pretty sure na tulog pa si Aga. I did my morning routines at nagsimulang bumaba sa hagdanan, I can smell something. May nagluluto if I wasn't that mistaken. So.. she knows how to cook. I got a piece of chicharon and yeah, it's tasty.

"Never thought that you know how to cook, sarap ah." napalingon siya ng bahagya sa akin, she let out her small laugh habang nagluluto pa rin.

"Dad taught me." I hope, he taught me too. Binantayan ko lang siyang magluto hanggang natapos na ang lahat, "Did you too made love yesterday?"

"We don't. Hindi nga siya natulog sa tabi ko, asaan na nga ba 'yon?" iniikot ko ang paningin ko pero walang Aga ang nahagip nito. Hays.

"So he didn't sleep with you, naahhh! Sayang 'yung pakulo ko. Hindi naman pala kayo nagkatabi kahapon, kung alam ko lang, both of you, bibigyan ko talaga ng alak." she's weird, mana sa akin.

"Weird. Sige na, hahanapin ko muna si Aga."

With that, I left her alone. I started to find Aga, hanggang makarinig ako ng tawanan sa banyo ni Charlene. He's there? Kumaripas ako ng takbo para maabutan ko si Aga doon, but I stopped when I saw four letters on Charlene's uper part of bed. SEYA, it was sparkling. I can see many butterflies here at her room, but.. Aya loves flower. I clicked the door knob and saw Aga with the two children, they're cute.

"Lea, buti naman at gising ka na. Sorry, madumi pa 'ko. Nagpapaligo pa kasi ako sa mga 'to, I'll enroll the two later." today was the enrolling day, tumango naman ako and I caught Aya and Andres, they look like twins.

"Okay. Sige na, tapusin niyo na 'yan. Seya cooked for us, you should try it." isinara ko na ang pintuan, Aga's smile was.. freaking. Lakas ng tama.

She loves books too, like me. I started to pick a book, hindi naman siguro masamang manghiram kahit minsan lang. My eyes caught a butterfly book, kulay asul ito. I opened it and.. it wasn't a book. It was a box, mukha lang libro. I saw many letters here, I opened one and saw my name on the top.

Lea,

Hope you know that I am safe, I am at the good place ❤️. Take care of your self, I hope we'll see each other again.

-Seyana.

Seyana? I thought her name was Ligaya. Even the floral headband was still here, she kept everything. She loves to keep everything as a memories for her. Ibinalik ko na iyon at saka bumaba.

Charlene/ Seyana's Point Of View

I heard some foot steps sound, it's Lea. Naupo naman siya sa sofa at tinitigan lamang ako, pareho kaming wirdo sa iba't ibang paraan. I rolled my eyes and shook my head after realizing na ang tagal na niyang nakatitig sa akin.

"What? Something wrong? Something bothers you?" I asked, umiling lang siya.

"Your real name is.. Seyana?" where did she got that, damn.

"Yup. Maria Seyana Carmina, why?" ibinalik ko ang tanong ko sa kaniya, tila ba maguguluhan siya.

"Nothing. Just saw your book, don't you mind kung pinakialman ko 'yon?" did she.. what? but the.. picture was there.

"Have you seen the picture of us?" tanong ko na lamang, does she already know?

"Picture. Is there?"

"Never mind. Kumain ka na diyan, aakyat lang ako to check Aga and the kids. Nga pala, hindi ako makakasama sa pageenroll, maybe, ikaw na lang ang sumama. No buts.. Thanks." pangunguna ko saka patakbong umakyat.

I immediately checked the book, I opened it at ayun, gulo nga. The picture was missing, grabe naman. Did she stole it? And lied to me? Pagtingin ko naman sa sahig ay saka ko nakita ang picture na'min, itinago ko iyon nang lumabas ang tatlo sa cr.

"Si Lea?"

"Nasa baba, hinihintay kayo." tipid kong sagot at saka naman sila umalis.

Nabaling ang atensyon ko sa litratong iyon, it's our picture 10 years ago. We don't look the same pero may hawig kami, I flip the picture and saw my handwritten. I hope, hindi niya nabasa 'to. I read it on my mind,

Seya and Aya,

I am Maria Seyana Carmina and she is Maria Ligaya Carmen. We're twins. She's Aya and I am Seya.

The freaking reality.
