Prologue
I massage my head. My head still hurts. Nakaupo ako dito sa sofa sa may living room. Inaalala ko ang lahat-lahat ng ginawa ko kagabi.
I was about to go home last night. But I came here in Thurston's apartment. I told him how much I missed him. I admitted that I like the things that he were doing. I even begged to him that he should comeback to me. Thurston and I kissed each other for so long. We said I love you to each other. And then we made love.
Totoo ang mga sinabi ni Thurston kanina. Nahihiya na tuloy ako na humarap sa kanya. Iyong nangyari sa amin kagabi ay kusa naming ginawa iyon. He asked for my permission and I allowed him. We made love last night because of our feelings for each other. Mahal namin ang isa't-isa. Kailangan kong tanggapin ang katotohanan.
Bumalik na si Thurston. Napansin ko na may bitbit siyang plastic bag kung saan nakalagay ang binili niyang pagkain. Sinundan ko siya ng tingin papunta sa kusina. Tiningnan niya ang rice cooker. He turned it off.
"Kakain na tayong dalawa. Ilalagay ko lang itong mga binili kong ulam sa may plato." He said.
Pinanood ko siya sa ginagawa niya. He is making effort again. He is doing everything just for me. Lumapit ako sa kinaroroonan niya.
"Tumigil ka na sa ginagawa mo." I said.
Parang wala siyang narinig sa sinabi ko.
"Sabi na ngang tumigil ka sa ginagawa mo." Sambit ko ulit.
Pinigilan ko siya sa ginagawa niya. Nagtaka siya nang tingnan niya ako.
"What's wrong?" Tanong niya.
"You should stop doing that." Sagot ko.
"Bakit pinipigilan mo na naman ako sa gusto kong gawin?" Tanong niya.
Bakit ba siya ganito? Sinaktan ko na ang damdamin niya pero matigas pa rin ang ulo niya.
"You are doing these things again that can hurt you in the end." Sagot ko.
"Don't worry. I'm just doing this because you are my guest." Malamig niyang sagot.
Kinuha niya ang dalawang maliit na plato kung saan niya inilagay ang dalawang ulam na binili niya. He put the plates in the table.
"If you don't want to stay here anymore, the door is open. You can go home right now." Sagot niya.
"I'm really going home. I can't stand being here while seeing you right now." Sambit ko.
"I'm glad to know that you are being honest. You better get your things and go home." Sambit niya.
I deserve to be treated like this after I hurt him.
"This is the last time that we will see each other. Let's forget everything from now on." I said.
Iniwan ko na siya mula sa kusina. Kinuha ko ang bag ko na nasa sofa. Naglakad ako papalapit sa pinto. Bubuksan ko na sana ang pinto pero napatigil ako. Nilingon ko si Thurston. Hindi man niya lang ba ako pipigilan? Talagang hahayaan niya ako na umuwi. Napansin niya na nandito pa rin ako.
"What are you still standing there?Don't expect me to stop you because I will not gonna do that." He said coldly.
Damn it. I hate myself for acting like a fool. I was the one who came here last night and I begged in front of him that he should comeback. And now, I have the audacity to leave like nothing happened.
Tumakbo ako papalapit sa kanya. Niyakap ko siya kaagad. Tumulo ang mga luha ko.
"Akala ko ba kakalimutan na natin ang isa't-isa? Bakit kailangan mo pa akong yakapin?" Tanong niya.
"I really-really hate you." Sagot ko.
"Sierra, please stop hugging me. Just let go. I don't want to assume again. I was already hurt." He said.
"I'm sorry for everything. I'm such an idiot when I push you away. And now, I'm such a fool for treating you like nothing. The truth is that I really care about you. You mean more to me than I can ever explain. Without you, I'm just falling apart. I'm begging you, don't let me go so easily." I begged again.
I know I sound desperate right now. But I don't care anymore. Hindi ko hahayaan na ganoon lang kadali na pakawalan niya ako. Tumigil ako na yakapin siya. I looked at him while I'm still crying. He hold my chin and he looked at me coldly.
"If you push me away once again, I will forget everything about you like you didn't exist in my life. Remember that." He said.
