Ikatatlumpu't Limang Kabanata

"JUANITO!" MY MOM screamed out loud as I watched her running towards them. Her scream made me back from the reality. She was crying, crying like there is no tomorrow when Dad slowly fell on the ground with big eyes and cupping his stomach where the blood is dripping down.

"D-Dad," para akong nabuhusan ng malamig na tubig at agad kong humakbang papalapit rito.

"Juanito! Yaya!" Sigaw ng aking ina.

Akmang bubuhatin ko ito pero pumalag siya. "D-Don't touch me."

"Dad, this is not tge right time to act like that!" Sigaw kong muli. Napakalakas ng tibok ng puso ko at nanginginig ang kamay ko.

"T-Tyler," the guy who shoot my father called me and he was about to hold my hands but hit it.

"Don't touch me! Don't ever touch me!" I shouted.

"Juanito! Don't sleep!" Nabalik ang atensiyon ko rito.

Patuloy sa pag-agos ang dugo sa tagiliran nito at kung magpapatuloy ito, maaari siyang maubusan ng dugo at pwede niyang ikamatay!

I didn't watch them, without any further words, sinuportahan ko ito at sa kabila ko ay aking ina na tanging pag-iyak na lamang ang naririnig.

I dragged my father to the passenger's seat of my car and my mom immediately followed, supporting him at the back. And when I was about to step inside the driver's seat, Sun hold my arms. "T-Ty." Blood was on his clothes and scattered on his hands. They are trembling and it was really cold in my arms.

Binawi ko ang kamay ko sa kanya at walang salí-salitang pumasok sa loob ng sasakyan, afraid that I might do something that will hurt him. I don't want to blame him, for now. I

I don't know what to do if something will unnecessary happen to Dad.

I drove the car as fast as I could and the last thing I know, Dad, was already inside the emergency room. It's been an hour and a half of waiting outside of it and no one even came outside. And as the time goes by, I feel more nervous. I walk and and sit and walk and sit again. That's my routine for the past time. While mom on the other hand is sitting and crying silently.

I just don't know if she was praying because why should she? She is an evil after all.

I sat beside her. "Mom." I called. She wiped her tears before looking at me.

Before she could speak, my phone rang again and this is the 24th time of ringing since I left him at the house. I don't know if he was still there or he already went home, but he doesn't have any car? And if he will commute while blood was on his clothes, then people will astound to him.

I ignored the call. "Mom." I called again.

"I will file a case. Attempted murder and trespassing what he is an ani—"

"M-Mom." I halted her.

"C-Can we think about Dad first? He's in critical condition."

"Don't expect me to just what happened go Tyler." She shoot me with daggers. Her eyes are on fire. She want a revenge. I gulped.

"W-What do you mean?"

"Simple as suing your boyfriend. I'll punish him. He will be rotten on the jail."

"M-Mom. It was an accident." Pagtatanggol ko kay Sun dahil iyon naman ang totoo.

"I will call the police right now to pick up that animal."

Para akong nabuhusan ng malamig na tubig. "M-Mom," I bit my lips to stop it from trembling. My heart is beating rapidly because knowing this old woman wasn't joking. "Please, have mercy on him. It was a plain accident." I hold her hands with desperate and begging eyes.
