Tears In Heaven

Chapter 34

Chapter 34

Pagkatapos namin mag-usap ni Christopher ay sinamahan namin si August na bumili ng mga gamit ng bata.

Na e-excite ako sa idea na bibili rin kaming dalawa ni Christopher ng mga ganito kapag nanganak na ako o nasa last trimester na ako.

Tuwang-tuwa naman si Christopher sa pagkarga sa baby ni August. Tinitignan lang din siya ni August at binabantayan.

Hindi ko akalain na darating si August sa ganitong pagkakataon na magiging ama siya.

Wala na siyang ibang ginawa kung hindi ang gawin ang mga bagay na makakapagbigay ng satisfaction sa kanya.

Pero kailangan namin masiguro kung sa kanya ba talaga ang bata. Kilala ko si August, hindi siya gagawa ng mga bagay na wala sa plano niya and the baby came unexpectedly. How suspicious it is that the baby's mother abandoned her own child?

May mga nanay na kayang gawin iyon pero kung matino kang babae, alam mo ang value ng bata na inalagaan mo ng ilang buwan.

Hindi ko maatim na may mga babaeng ganyan ang ginawa sa mga anak nila. Sobrang useless nila, hindi talaga nila deserve ang maayos na buhay.

Nang matapos kami sa pamimili ay umuwi rin naman kami agad at nakikita ko sa mukha nila Mama at Papa ang saya dahil sa sanggol na meron kami ngayon sa bahay.

Nakulayan na ulit ang bahay namin na puro problema ang meron.

Nakitaan ko nang panibagong pag-asa si Mama dahil sa anak ni August. Alam ko hindi na pumapasok sa mga utak nila kung kadugo ba talaga nila iyan o hindi, they are just happy and they wholeheartedly accept the child, that what makes me happy.

I think, kung hindi man kay August 'to, they won't let the child go. They will adopt him and will took care of him.

He's so blessed that he has my family.

Pareho na kaming nakahiga ni Christopher nang pumasok sa utak ko ang mga CCTV footage na meron ang bahay niya sa Paris.

"Did you already see the video?" Tanong ko sa kanya.

Mabilis itong napatingin sa akin na may lito sa mata.

"W-wala pa." Wala? Pero nag s-stutter siya.

Maglilihim na naman ba siya sa akin? May alam na ba siya at ayaw niyang sabihin sa akin?

"I just want to know the truth. My heart always say that something happens, please?" Sabi ko sa kanya.

Isa yata sa proud aspect na meron ako ay iyong laging tumatama ang mga kutob ko.

"Mahal ko, rest your mind. Walang nangyaring kung ano man ang nasa isip mo." Sabi nito.

Pero bakit iba ang nararamdaman ko, iba ang pinapakita ng mata niya sa sinasabi niya.

"Christopher, almost 14 years, I was looking for our child. I won't blame someone without considering the scenario. I just want to know the truth and if there is wrong that time. Swear to God, I would sue everyone who has been involved in losing my child." Sabi ko.

Nakatingin lang ito sa akin at hindi nagsalita. Why is it I am having a feeling that he has something up on his sleeves and he just didn't want me to know about it.

"Don't stress yourself. Come'on let's sleep tightly." Sabi pa nito.

Hinayaan ko siyang yakapin ako pero nanatili pa rin na bukas ang mata ko ay nakatingin sa ceiling ng kwarto.

Binabalikan ko ang bawat araw na meron ako sa Paris at sa bawat araw na kasama namin sa bahay ang best friend niyang si Lea.

I remembered how touchy is Lea to Christopher. Hindi sila iyong normal na magkaibigan but when you look closely to them, they are most likely lovers.

I trust Christopher so much that I didn't doubted him about his relationship to Lea.

If Lea has feelings for Christopher. He can have the motive to harm me so I can be disappeared from their area and he can have my man.

Tinignan ko si Christopher na nakapikit na ang mata. I can't imagine him cheating on me.

I know he love me so much to the point that he would not do thinhs that would literally break our relationship.

But how?

If I am suspecting Lea, would he going to turn his head and fight for what I am fighting?

Tinignan kong maigi si Christopher bago ko pinikit ang mata ko.

"I know that you already know what happened to our child, Christoph. You're covering her because she's your best friend." Sabi ko at natawa pa ko sa dulo.

Hindi ko nakita ang paggalaw niya kaya hinayaan ko na siya. I know it was Lea. I know it all too well. Christoph won't stop me from talking about our child but right now? Maybe he knows the truth and part of him don't accept what he watch or saw.

But I need those videos. I need to get them so I have proofs to sue Lea for what she did. I need justice for my child. 13 years is long enough for her to enjoy the freedom of me losing my child.

I wake up when I feel that Christopher is not by my side. I heard conversations outside in my balcony kaya dahan-dahan akong bumangon.

Hindi muna ako nagsalita because I want to greet him by hugging him in his back.

But suddenly he was so serious talking yo someone.

"How could you, El? That was my child, I clearly saw in the video that you are putting medicine on Shellene's milk. Why? Why did you do it?"

My heart stopped upon hearing it. It was just a guts but it became right. She did it. She killed my child.

Lalabas na sana ako para komprontahin si Christopher pero nagulat ako sa sunod niyang sinabi.

"What we had before is over, El. Una kitang minahal pero mas minahal ko si Shellene. She is all I have right now and I can't lose her. Oo, you have been my best friend and my first girlfriend but that doesn't change everything. I have Shellene, what we had before is now just a memory."

"Naging kayo?" Tanong ko.

Shock is flustered in Christopher's face. I can see that he is nervous. But I can't explain my feelings and emotions.

I don't know what I did in this world to feel like this?

The pain is so overrated and I don't know how can I handle this.

Loosing my child, knowing the truth and revelation of betrayal.

I am crying. I am tearing up my heart in heaven.
