Para akong unti unting pinapatay ng sarili kong kagagawan. Lintik na pag-ibig 'to. If this madness made her kill my parents with the reason that I took away the man she loves then it is sarcastically abhorring. It has been two months of me mourning for the death of my parents. Kay bilis ng panahon ngunit sadyang hindi nito mababago ang katotohanang wala na sila. Nagtanim ako ng galit at sama ng loob. The gun she triggered was like a bullet she planted in the depths of my whole existence.

I filed a case. With the lowest chance that I have, I still am going to fight for my parents' case. Gusto kong pagbayaran nila ang ginawa nila sa pamilya ko. Infront of me is Sabina, she didn't fail to help me with the best that she can.

Nang matapos na ang usapan namin ay umuwi na rin si Sabina. I was left with no choice but to go home to. Hindi na ako nagulat ng makita ko si Kiefer sa tapat ng bahay namin na naghihintay. He's been acting like this for two months now. I don't actually know how to act infront of him but I just did act civil infront of him.

" Nandito ka pala" I muttered. He just nodded and looked at my face.

" The court hearing will push through tomorrow." He just muttered. Ang lamig ng pagkakasabi niya ng mga katagang iyon sa akin. Ni hindi ko na alam kung saan papunta ang meron kami ni Kiefer. I thought sometime that maybe this love we have is something that won't even grow and flourish. That some love stories are bound to be set aside and rust and one of those love stories is ours. We can be this civil but we can no longer push through with it.

His hands were in his pockets as he stared at me for a moment.

Kitang kita ko sa mga mata niya ang kakaibang emosyon. He's sad. I know but I cannot do anything about it. I'm also too tired and sad. Araw araw akong umuuwi sa tahanan kung saan palaging bumabalik sa akin ang mga masasayang araw ko kasama ang aking pamilya.

All my life I have never prioritized myself. All my life I mended myself with all the things for my family. And it pains me too much to be at this state because of the same reason I had years ago.

Love

Him

Habang nakatingin ako sa kanya, wala akong ibang maisip kundi ang aking pagmamahal sa kanya na nauwi lamang sa sitwasyong meron ako. If I could just make him love that woman to spare my family then I would. That woman is possessively in love with the man standing infront of me. And all I can do is to let him go.

" Salamat. Darating ako bukas" Was all I said before walking pass him towards our gate. Hindi siya nagsalita ngunit hindi nakawala sa paningin ko ang pagkuyom ng mga kamao niya.

Mabuti na siguro yung ganito. Unti unti kong pinapatay ang kung anuman ang meron kami dahil ayoko ng palakihin pa.

The night is still young. Malakas ang ulan sa labas kung kaya naman ay medyo malamig na rin ang gabi. I was about to drift of to sleep when my brother came knocking at my front door.

" Ate, nasa labas po si kuya Kiefer mukhang lasing" Tawag sa akin ng aking bunsong kapatid. I then closed my eyes for a while before realizing the fact that he is wet and cold outside. Agad akong bumangon sa pagkakahiga ko at lumabas ng aking kuwarto.
