I looked at the photo. What is this? He's right this isn't him, this wasn't the Ellie I knew. This wasn't the guy who captivated my heart and sang with his guitar on the street, this wasn't the guy I'd bumped into, this wasn't the guy from the train. And this wasn't the guy I like.
The nurse was about to say something but he suddenly walked towards at me. He furrowed an eyebrow. The look on his eyes put me into a tight spot, this situation wasn't the way I expected it to be.
"Bakit na sa 'yo ang mga gamit ni Ethan?" confused but filled with uneasiness.
I raised my head to meet his gazed. His eyes had a lot of anxiousness the way I read it, he took a gulped. The hope on his frightened eyes wishing it wasn't his was seen through his teary eyes.
He's wearing a dark green full sleeves shirt, naka roll yung shirt above his elbow. The guy on his side was wearing black and white printed polo shirt.
"Ethan? His name is Ethan?" napalunok ako as I wiped my tears. The bag on my lap was the answer I couldn't just tampered. "Ethan? Yes.. I think so.. sa kanya nga 'to." I uttered skeptically, I'm fully confused.
"Nasan siya? Please sabihin mong okay lang siya." he gashed with his rich voice as it reaches mine.
"He will, magiging maayos ang lagay niya. I.. just know it." I reassured him, I pursed my lips.
"Isa ka siguro sa mga kaibigan niya sa gig. I'm Ellie at ito naman si Buboy" he looked a bit nervous masyadong malikot ang mga mata niya halatang pina-process niya parin ang buong pangyayari.
"Theone." maikli kong sagot.
He awkwardly lent a hand para makipag hand shake. Iaabot ko na sana ang kamay ko pero bigla akong napatigil sa nakita ko. He has the same tattoo as Ethan. A dream catcher tattoo, I remembered when Ethan talked about it. His bestfriend and first love has the same tattoo as his. So alin siya dun? Is he the bestfriend or is he the first love? Gusto ko sana gets itanong but it would be inappropriate to ask considering our situation right now and also we're not close enough to barge in with their privacy.
"I'm Lyndon, Buboy lang tawag nila sakin. Anong nangyari? Nakatanggap lang kami ng tawag kanina hindi namin alam buong detalye sa nangyari kay Ethan."
Suddenly the two nurse walked in front of us, they were talking.
"Dead on arrival daw yung driver na nakabangga sa isang pasyente na dinala din dito kanina, nawalan daw ng preno." they were mumbling to each other. Nagulat kaming tatlo sa narinig namin.
I explained everything to them about the sudden accident, pero hindi ko na ikwenento kung bakit kami nagkakilala ni Ethan ang alam lang nila kasama ko siya sa pag gi-gig niya. They would find it weird if I tell them that we just met today.
"Ako na yan, kunin ko na mga gamit ni Ethan." bigla niyang kinuha yung bag at beanie hat ni Ethan saakin.
"Yung hat, that's mine" I looked at him. "Uhm Ethan gave that to me." I muttered.
He looked at it on his hand and then gazed at me with confusion. "Ethan gave that to me." I repeated, I lent my hand I waited for him to give it back, nakatingin parin siya sakin. Kinuha ko sa kanya , I pursed my lips.
