Page 72 – Triumph Over The Hurt
Nang nasa loob ng kami ng camp, the target shooting trainer, whom I’ve been meeting with for two days now, was surprised when I told him bago pa kami magsimula, “Can I speak with the Emperor first?”
Hindi kaagad ito nakasagot. Matapos ang ilang segundo, “Sure. He’s here right now. De Silva could bring you.”
Tinawag niya si Knidn at sinabi ang request ko. Maging si Knidn ay gulat na napatingin sa akin, mga mata’y nagtatanong kung ako ba ay sigurado. I just nodded at him.
As we walked towards the Emperor’s room, Knidn commented, “Anong meron? First time mo ‘to na hanapin siya directly.”
Hindi ako mapakali. After learning what my parents did to him and what could have happened to him during his childhood, I just…I…
“Hindi ako sigurado.” Napatawa ako sa sarili. I added, “I just need to see him.”
Narating namin ang isang pintuan na yari sa kahoy na kulay itim.
“Hmmm...I’m just here listening. Always waiting for you, Zony.” malambing na sagot ni Knidn. I blushed again.
Trying not to avoid his stare, “Thank you, Knidn. Please wait for me.”
Nakita ko agad ang Emperor sa may pintuan pa lang. He greeted me with raised brows. I gently closed the door and then found myself running to him. Napatayo ang Emperor sa gulat lalo na nang itinapon ko ang sarili sa kaniya at ipinulupot ang kamay sa beywang niya. His body stiffened and his hand remained unmoving on his side, opening and closing his fists as if unsure what to do.
“What kind of joke is this, Zony Evviola? Careful. I despise jokes.” tanong niya sa isang malamig na tono. At that moment, I don’t care if he slapped me again. I buried my face deeper into his chest.
I was assaulted with the smell of mint, freshly laundered clothes, and tobacco.
“I am a niece hugging her uncle. Let me have my peace on his arms.” sagot ko sa kaniya at hindi ako umalis sa pwesto.
For a minute, nanatili siyang parang istatwa. Feeling it’s getting awkward, I was about to release him from my hug when he started hugging be back. Inilagay niya ang mga malalaking palad sa may beywang ko at mas hinila pa ako papalapit sa kaniya.
At that time, I couldn’t think of him as a monster. He’s a human and he’s my beloved Uncle. The Emperor sighed deeply, “I didn’t think having a niece this close would be high-maintenance.”
“Hugging is high-maintenance for you?” tanong ko sa kaniya at hindi ko mapigilang matawa.
“Yes. You may have not notice it yet but I don’t do hugs.”
