Nakakarelax.
Yung simoy ng hangin.
Yung tunog ng dagat.
Yung maligamgam na buhangin sa paa mo.
Yung kumikinang na butuin sa langit.
Sana ganito rin ang buhay. Yung simple lang. Yung parang walang problema. Relax at walang stress.
Pero hindi eh.
Lahat ng steps na tatahakin mo, laging may harang. Laging may sakit at pighati.
"Hindi mo naman sinabi sakin na lalabas ka. Nakakatakot kaya maiwan mag-isa dun sa kwarto." Narinig kong sabi ni Lisa.
"Buti nga iniwan ka lang mag-isa lang sa kwarto eh." Sabi ko sakaniya habang pinipigilan ilabas ang luha ko.
Tumabi siya sakin tapos hinawakan ako sa balikat.
"Siya nanaman ba? Georgina, you've got to stop thinking about him." Bulong na sabi niya.
"Hindi kasi yun ganun kadali Lisa." Sabi ko tas may tumulong luha sa pisngi ko.
It's our 5th Anniversary. I'm expecting a surprise from Reynold.
Every anniversary namin, he has a surprise.
Pero I think that record will break today.
He hasn't text me or called me since yesterday.
Nagaalala na ako. Hindi kaya nakalimutan niya? I doubt. Nasa calendar niya yun eh, and nagset pa siya ng alarm exactly 12mn para mabati daw niya ako agad.
I looked at my phone once again. Wala talaga. Tawagan ko nalang siya.
After a few rings, sumagot siya.
"Hello?" He said, parang bagong gising lang siya? Gosh, it's already 11:47am. Eh palaging 6 ang gising niyan eh.
"Hey, goodmorning hon." I said with a lovely tone. Not minding the thought of him just waking up.
"Gi? Why'd you call?" He said with a ting of curiosity. But why? Don't I have the right to call my boyfriend?
"I just missed you, that's all." I said. Nagaalangan pa ako sa sabihin yan.
"Oh okay. Anyway, gotta go. May gagawin pa kasi ako. Bye" Then he just hanged up. He didn't even say 'I love you' or greeted me a 'Happy anniversary'. He didn't even say that he misses me too.
Damn, what is going on?
"Tulala ka nanaman." Sabi sakin ni Lisa na nakapagbalik sakin sa realidad.
