A polluted air from manila welcomed me. It was my third time here in manila, the last time I went here was the worst part of my life. I even swear to God that I will never ever come back here in the Philippines again but I am here anyway, theres no turning back.
Kuya’s driver was waiting for me outside the airport, as soon as he saw me he started walking towards me and get all my laguages. I waited at him inside the car and as soon as he enter he started driving. I just close my eyes and let myself sleep. My body was adjusting, maybe the body clock they said.
I don’t know what time is it or kung gaano ako katagal natulog. Naramdaman ko na lang na huminto yung kotse na sinasakyan ko. I rub my eyes and I open the door. As soon as I went outside the car nag inat ako. I don’t care if they can see me like this. I just want to stretch my bones especially my feet.
Iniwan na lang ng driver ni Kuya yung laguages ko sa tabi ko, matapos non ay nag paalam na syang aalis. I just nod and I said thank you at him. I get my phone outside my purse and I looked for the time. Its already 1AM in the morning. I looked in the front of me and to my surprise. I was not in my condo it was not my place. Ito yung lugar na natatakot akong punatahan. Ito yung lugar na natatakot akong balikan yung mga alala ng nakaraan. I was about to walk out but someone open the gate.
“Yes sino po sila?” a man asked. I close my eyes, nanigas ako sa kinatatayuan ko at hindi man lang ako maka tingin sa banda nya. alam kong sya yon. Alam kong sya. how many years that I didn’t heard his voice. Its been a year but I guess nothing changed. I don’t want to look at him I cant even talk.
“ate may kailangan po kayo?” again he asked. I get the courage to look at him. saan ako kumukuha ng lakas ng loob? Tss. i just stared at him for a minute. I miss staring at your face, do you know how lovely your face are? I started walking inside the house. Their booth camp. Para syang nanigas ng Makita ako. His eyes widened, he even gasped and he literally looked so shocked. Iniwan ko na sya don at nag tuloy tuloy lang ako sapag pasok sa loob ng mansion nila.
Its nice to be back.
I wonder what will happen in my stay here?
