Just by thinking that I won't force myself to remember him, pairs of memories were crushing back on my mind. After all, I didn't bother to think and connect those glimpse. Ayaw ko siyang maalala nang tuluyan.

Every night, Demiel's showing himself to me through my dreams. Hindi ako natutuwa dahil minsan pakiramdam ko ay nasa tabi ko siya. Lahat ng nasa panaginip ko, pakiramdam ko, ginawa namin iyon noon. At, mukhang tama nga ako. Malaking parte pa rin ng ala-ala ko ang nawawala, dahil hindi ko pa rin siya natatagpuan.

Pero, paano ko ba matatagpuan ang taong hindi ko naman hinanap?

"Good morning, Kicy," the psychiatrist greeted me. I smiled back at her.

Pumasok ako sa clinic ni Doc at saka umupo sa kaniyang harapan. I have scheduled a therapy today.

Three years have passed and yet I wasn't fully recovered. Hindi pa rin ako nakakapagsalita at hindi ko alam kung hanggang kailan ako magiging ganito.

For the past few years, I didn't do anything but to study and strive harder. Natapos ko ang pag-aaral ko and I attended a lot of seminars and reviewed myself to the bones. I wasn't sleeping for the whole month before the board exams.

Sino ba naman ang hindi kakabahan? Sasabak ako nang hindi nakakapagsalita, sa kabila noon ay hindi ako nawalan ng pag-asa. Sadya yatang malakas ang aking loob. Sumabak ako kahit alam kong ano mang oras ay pwede akong makaranas ng memory lapse.

Thank God, I passed the board exams. I aced the exams! Being mute really didn't stop me to become an engineer. I didn't top the board exams, unlike the main characters on wattpad Isha's talking about. Pero sobrang proud ko sa sarili ko dahil nakayanan ko.

Doctora consoled me. I know she's doing her best to help me, pero nahihirapan talaga ako. Hindi pa rin ako natutong magsalita kahit sinusundan ko naman lahat ng mga sinasabi at pinapayo niya sa akin.

I heaved a sigh. Maybe it's just not the right time yet. I won't give up on myself, I swear. Everything will go back to normal soon enough, I just have to wait.

The next day, I came to the hospital to visit my friend who's pregnant. She's four months pregnant and her husband doesn't know that she's carrying their child. Ayaw niya pa muna raw sabihin sa kaniya dahil gusto niya raw maghanda ng malaking surpresa.

Minsan ay natatawa na lamang ako dahil kilalang-kilala na ako ng ilang mga doctor at nurses dito.

I'm holding a coffee while going to their room. Parang ako pa ang magmumukhang asawa niya dahil ako ang palagi niyang kasama tuwing may check up siya at ang baby niya. I can't wait to see the baby, though. I promise to myself that I'll spoil that child.

Nadatnan ko siya nakahiga habang kinakausap siya ng kaniyang Ob-gyne.

"A boy," she said.

My friend smiled while tears rushing down her cheeks. Madali niyang pinunasan ang mga iyon. I creased my forehead when I saw her did that. Is everything really okay?

She kept on reminding her what she needs and avoid to do so she would deliver the baby healthy.

"Good morning, Engineer!" the doctor greeted me.

"Good morning, Doc!" I greeted back. Just like the usual days, I'm still using sign language ofcourse.

"I'll go now, I still have other patients to check."

I nodded and smiled at her as she walked passed me.

Umupo ako sa tabi niya. Suminghap siya at nag-iwas ng tingin sa akin. I know, something's not good. Hindi ako naniniwalang she just want surprise the father of the child.
