The doctors announced the Death of Via. I couldn't help but blame myself for her death. Kavyx stayed with us till night.
"I'm gonna buy foods" binagsak ko ang katahimikan
"I'll come with you"-Kavyx
"No."-Ako
Lumabas nako ng hospital at umikot papalikod dito.
I wanted to be alone for me to cry, pakiramdam ko, wala akong karapatang umiyak sa harap ng parents ni Via. I cried silently, there are times where i lightly punch my chest because i couldn't breath anymore.
I gripped my hair as tears continuously, ramdam ko na ang pamamasa ng itaas na bahagi ng hoodie ko dahil sa sariling luha. I stayed there for more minutes trying to calm my self down and massaging my eyes.
Tumayo nako at bumili ng pagkain para maibigay sakanila.
"Did something happened? Bakit natagalan ka?"-Darryl
"Ah nagikot pako to get fresh air"-Ako, darryl nodded pero ang mariin na titig saakin ni Kavyx ang mas nagpakaba sakin
Sana hindi namamaga ang mata ko. I'm also too ashamed to talk to him, dahil kaming dalawa lang ang nakakaalam sa kung ano ang ginawa ko.
They held Via's funeral privately. We were all waiting for Eli to wake up before Tita and Tito announce Via's death on the public.
Eli woke up on the 5th day of Via's funeral.
Pagkatawag palang ni Tito saamin dahil siya nalang ang nagbabantay doon, mabilis kaming pumunta sa hospital. Ilang family members ang naiwan for Via.
Lia shed tears right after she opened the door of Eli's room, when i saw Eli my tears started falling down.
"Eli" nanginginig ang boses na tawag ni Lia sakanya
Eli smiled
"Hey, did you guys waited too long?" i looked at tito
Hindi niya pa nasasabi.
"Bro you slept so much" nagfist bump silang dalawa at yinakap ni Darryl si Eli ng marahan
Me and Lia followed. Nag ka kwentuhan pa kami saglit hanggang sa maiwan na kaming dalawa ni Eli.
"Hey, is it weird if i say that i dremt about you boyfriend?" Napairap ako, i exactly know who.
"He's not my boyfriend."-Ako
"Well yeah, anyway i dremt about him."-Eli
"About?"-Ako
"I forgot"-Eli
Because of what he said, napaisip ako. If Kavyx disappeared from this world will he be forgotten too? Will i forget him?
Nang dumating na si Tita, hinayaan muna namin silang dalawa magusap habang nasa labas kaming apat nila Tito.
"You guys should go home now"-Tito
"We're ok naman Tito, we'll stay"-Ako, tumango naman silang dalawa
"Pwede bang mauna na kayo sa burol? We might take a long time before letting Eli know"-Tito
We did what tito said. Hindi ilinagay sa bahay nila ang funeral ni Via, instead it happened to a so called 'garden of peace'. Tita wanted Via's last goodbyes to be beautiful.
The next day Tito requested Darryl to be there dahil pwede ng makauwi si Eli.
