2nd UD! :) excited ee; ) 

-- 

[Jurmaine's POV] 

i rub both my hands.. i don't know kung ano itong nararamdaman ko.. all i know is.. I'm nervous. i mean.. i was 2 years old when i lost my sister so how can i manage to remember her? but even though. my mom and dad always make me sure that I know her. kahit na medyo hindi ko talaga siya maalala. 

I look at the clock. Shit. it's already 10pm. bakit wala pa sila? 

isa pa itong si Justine? nasaan na ba to? talaga. 

Ever since na malaman niya na ampon siya. nagbago na siya, i mean he used to be one of the top student in his course nung 1st year collage siya. ngayong 2nd year na siya? wala. tapos minsan hindi umaattend ng taining ng varsity. kung umaattened naman. late oh kaya lasing. kaya minsan ako ang napapagalitan. i kept talking to him.. kaya lang parang hindi niya ko naririnig. 

Hindi ko naman siya masisisi kung ganun ang maramdaman niya.. pero.. dapat maintindihan niya din sila momy. i mean sobrang hirap sa part ng parents ko na mawalan ng anak. 

I love Justine. he's is my brother. kahit na hindi my blood. but i know by heart. ay ano ba to? potek. parang bakla. 

30 mins have passed. pero wala padin. 

The door opened. napatayo ako bigla. at pumunta sa may pintuan. 

"oh bakit gising ka pa?" sabi ni dady while looking at his wrist watch. 

"nasaan na siya dad? i want to see my sister" sabi ko with a big smile. 

he smiled. "nahanap na namin siya Jurmaine! nahanap na namin ang kapatid niyo" he said. 

i smiled. "yeah! then where is she?" i asked.. I look aroud. "..and where is mom?" 

then the door opened again. 

"bakit gising ka pa?" tanong ni mamy. 

"nasaan na yung kapatid ko?" tanong ko. 

"she's not with us" mom said coldly. halatang may dissappointment sa boses. 

umakyat na si mom.. it means. she doesn't want to talk about it. and dad. we sat in the couch while he was drinking a brandy. i just want to hear what really happen. 

"so dad? what does she look like?" i asked with a big smile plastered on my face. 

"she pretty.. she really looks like your mom" he said. 

"then.. why isn't she with you?" i asked. 

"she doesn't want to go.." he said and sip on his brandy. "..kaya ganyan ang momy mo" 

nawala yung smile sa bibig ko. siyempre ganun talaga. "dad, mom should understand her.. i mean.. she just met you.. she doesn't want to go with a complete stranger right?" 

"i kept telling that to your mom.. but she won't listen" sabi ni dad. 

"I want to see her" i said. 

then dad smirked. 

[Xandra's POV]

i look at the mirror. shit. mugto yung mga mata ko. 

wala kasi akong ginawa kung hindi umiyak ee. 

biglang bumukas yung pintuan ng kwarto ko at dumapa ako bigla para magtulog-tulogan.. alam kong hindi matutuwa si mama kung makita niyang ganito yung mata ko. 

"ate!!" masayang sabi ni Trisha. 

yung kapatid kong 4 years old. 

napasmile naman ako at niyakap ko siya.
