Vanessa Jasmine's
"Mi..." Isang maliit at matinis na boses ang gumising saakin. My head felt heavy but I tried opening it due to the noice coming from somewhere.
"Mi...miiii..." muling rinig ko. I sat up, eyes opened and take a look at my surrounding. Napakunot ang noo ko ng mapansin kong nasa ibang kwarto ako.
The mixture of white and light pink on the room screams something. Toys scattered around like I'm in a nursery room.
"Maaa..." Napabaling na ko ng muli kong narinig iyon. And I saw a liitle girl on her crib. Her hand reaching for me but I can't see her face even though the room is so bright. Her hair is long and I think it's sticking on her face dahil sa pag-iyak nito.
Muling lumakas ang iyak nito dahilan para mapatalon ako sa gulat. Tumayo ako mula sa kama at nagpapanic na lumapit rito.
"Shh..." I hushed. "Why are you crying, little lady?" I asked. Lumapit ako sa crib nito at dumukwang upang makita siya ng maayos. But that question is answered with more loud whining.
She makes a grabby hands to me still crying. I was hesitant. I didn't know her but I had the urged to craddle her and comfort her so I did.
Dahan dahan ko itong binuhat galing sa crib at niyakap. She hug me tight, I feel like I'll lose my breath at how soft anf tiny she is. I laughed at her. "What's wrong, baby? Who makes our little lady cry?"
She hiccuped and wipe her face using her longsleeve pajama. "Da and Mi, leave me?"
Napakunot ang noo ko sa tanong nito. She's talking about her parent. But where are they? "No, I don't think they will leave such a beauty." I cooed and boop her nose. She slightly giggled and rest her head in my shoulders. "Dada and Mimi and baba be happy geder! Wabyu, Mimi! No leave baba!"
I woke up feeling groggy. Sinapo ko ang ulo ko at dahan-dahang umupo sa higaan. My head hurts so much I feel like crying.
"Ahhh..." I groaned while massaging my head. I think I had a dream but its so hazy. I tried remembering it pero mas lalong sumasakit ang ulo ko sa ginawa ko.
"Does your head still hurt?" Isang boses ang narinig ko sa kanang bahagi ko and I saw Rio getting out of the shower. Dressed with only sweatpants.
Lumakad ito palapit saakin at dahan-dahang tinanggal ang kamay ko sa ulo at siya pumalit sa paghilot ko noon. I slightly flinched on his touch but relax after he starts massaging them.
"Baka nagugutom ka na kaya masakit ang ulo mo. I'll get you something to eat. Lay down here again..." He nudged my shoulder at inihiga ako sa kama. Itinaas nito ang kumot sa dibdib ko. "And wait for me." He said and kisses my forehead.
I can't help but keep on trying to remember my dream. It's feel like it's so magical and it makes me so giddy out of nowhere despite my headache. Nang maramdaman kong lalong sumasakit ang ulo ko, tumagilid ako at dahan-dahang umupo sa kama.
