Nakalabas na ko sa hospital kahapon at ngayon ang burol ni JD. Pamilya lang niya at kaming apat na magpipinsan at bilang na kamag-anak nila lang ang dumalo.
Ito ang kahuli-hulihang araw na makakasama at makikita ko siya. While looking at his coffin . . . the pain doesn’t seem to erase, it actually feels a lot worse. Why do I seem to always fall, it’s like I’m under a curse . . . Architect, I miss you badly.
Hinawakan ni ate Shean ang kamay ko ng dahang-dahang ipasok ang kabaong ni JD. I left there, ayaw kong makita iyon. Masyadong masakit . . . hindi ko kakayanin.
Tears started to escape from my eyes, I didn't wipe it. Pinabayaan ko lang iyong tumulo. Pumasok ako sa kotse ko at doon ko hinayaan ang aking sarili ilabas ang sakit na nararamdaman ko. Bakit parang ang bilis ng oras at mga araw? Magkasama pa kami no'ng nakaraan . . . ngayon wala na siya.
"Sana hinintay mo ako na makalabas . . ." I whispered. "I told you that I will tell how much I like you . . . I told you that I will tell you in person that my answer is a yes. Why you didn't wait for me?"
My cries was like a lost chord in a music while a song was playing. A chords that cannot find its right progression.
You gave my soul serenity, and gave my heart a song. But you leave me with a bittersweet memories.
The passenger's door open, then there I saw Honey.
She handed me a box, "pinapabigay ni Shean."
Kinuha ko ito mula sa kanya.
I saw in front of the box a text saying, To my Doctora.
You really know how to make my heart beat in a second.
"Just cry, Vera, let it out," She murmured while eyeing me with a sympathy I can see through her eyes.
She hugged me, hinahagod niya ang likod ko. Para akong bata na pinapatahan ng isang ina.
"You don't have to force yourself to be okay, just let it out, mourn if that's what makes you feel better." She whispered, still caressing my back.
The door of the car in the back seat open once again then someone shut it. I saw Krizza and Aris giving me their warmest smile, but I cannot reciprocate it.
"God has better plans for you, I know he have so continue living for tomorrow. Nakaya ko noon, Vera. Sobrang sakit ng naranasan ko na halos sumuko na ako. Habang patagal ng patagal hindi pa rin nawawala 'yong sakit. Pero hindi ako nawalan ng pag-asa. I trust his plan for me," Aris told me and pat my shoulder. "Don't let your faith vanish just because of what happened but make it grow more."
"We're here for you, we are always ready to lend a hand for you, we love you so much our baby Doctora," Krizza said.
I am still their kid, their baby.
Kagaya ng batang nangangailangan nang kalinga, ibinuhos ko ang aking nararamdaman . . . mula sa sakit na pinaranas sa 'kin ng mundo.
Sabay nila akong niyakap na dalawa. I am so much blessed having a cousins like them. So much blessed.
We may be have a professional works, yet the love for each other that we have didn't vanished up until now. Kagaya nalang kung paano namin ipagtanggol ang isa't-isa dati.
When it comes to each other, it's always be family over everything.
This time the tears I cry are bitter and warm, I cry because my heart is torn.
Architect . . . you mean more than the world to me. Our beginning was beautiful and romantic, but why do I ended up with a sorrow in my heart?
