Hindi nagsasalita.
Hindi kumikibo.
Nakhiga lamang sa sahig.
"Papa?" Tanong ng dalawang anak na halos hindi makabuo ng salita sa takot na baka wala na ang kanilang ama.
"*cough* *cough*" tinignan sila ng kanilang ama at nginitian.
Tumakbo ang dalawa papalapit sa papa nila at niyakap ito.
Bigla nalang tumulo ang luha ni Athena.
Hindi niya alam kung oara saan yun.
Tears of joy ba o tears of pain.
Joy dahil ligtas na sila ng kanyang ina
O
Pain dhil someone has to pay the price ng pagkaligtas nilang dalawa.
Andrea's POV
"May we now call on, Liezl Zamora Plenos' daughter, Andrea, to give her farewell speech for her mom" nagpipigil ako ng luha habang naglalakad papunta sa harap. Sa gilid ng kabaong ng mommy ko.
"My mom, Liezl Plenos, was a very great mother. Hindi man siya yung ianng hinahangad ng bawat anak, sinusubukan niya ang lahat para maging perfect mother sa akin. She stood by my side when no one else did. She was my greatest companion, sister and bestfriend. She was all-in-one. Nagawa niya akong palakihin kahit mag-isa lang siya. I know it wasn't easy handling a daughter like me, but she did well. Ma... Wherever you may be... Know that you are always in my heart. I'm s-sorry ma. A-ako ang dahilan n-ng lahat ng to. *sniff* I s-should be the one lying t-there and not you. H-hindi ko man to sinasabi, I l-love you m-mommy. *sniff* Y-you'll always be i-in my heart. *sniff* Goodbye" pinunasan ko yung luha ko at bumalik sa upuan ko.
The people close to my mom also gave their last words for her.
Hindi ko akalain na siya pala yung kukunin.
Tama nga ang kasabihan na; 'don't do harm unto others for it all goes back to you like a boomerang'
Eto na ang resulta ng pagiging insecure ko.
Kinuha na si mommy mula sakin.
She's all I have left.
Kung bakit kasi humarang pa siya noong araw na yon...
^^flashback^^
"Mommy..." Tawag ko kay mommy na naghihingalo na.
"Nak... *cough* I love you. A-always... A-always remember... That. *cough* *cough* s-sorry n-nak. If I a-am not *cough* t-the mother *cough* y-you wanted..."
"Sshhh... We will bring you to the hospital. Kaya pa ma. Please, wag mo along iwan" pagmamakaawa ko habang umiiyak.
"E-everything has an *cough* e-end. *cough* w-wag ka na *cough* u-umiyak nak. *cough* s-smile. Smile f-for mo-mommy" I tried to muster a genuine smile. She caressed my face.
"I... I... I a-m very p-proud of *cough* you. M-mahal kita n-nak" she started to close her eyes.
"Ma, no! *sobs* open your eyes ma! *sobs* I still need you *sobs* mommy! Mommy naman eh" sabi ko at tuluyan na ngang naiyak.
She's gone...
And she's never coming back...
^^end of flashback^^
Natapos ang libing ni mommy pero iyak pa rin ako ng iyak.
I just cant accept the fact na wala na ang mommy ko.
I cant accept the fact that I am left alone.
It just wont sink in...
----------------------
"Are your things ready?" Tanong ng tita ko, kapatid ni mommy.
"Yes po" sabi ko at tinitigan ang picture frame na may picture namin ni mommy.
Its been days...
But the pain is atill bery fresh in my memory and in my heart.
Kakadating lang ng tita ko.
She came back to the Philippines para lng kunin ako at patirahin kasama nila sa Amsterdam.
She is the only relative of mine closest to my mom kaya sa kanya na ako titira.
She will be my official guardian.
She is very good to me and hindi ako takot makitira sa kanila dun dahil close na rin kami ng mga anak niya at husband niya.
It doesnt seem right lang na magmimigrate ako mag-isa eh matagal tagal na naming plano yun ni mommy.
When she was still around.
Oh mom, I wish you are here with me right now.
and if you were, I know you can help me with my problem.
Paano ko ba sasabihin kay eros na wala na ako sa Philippines?
Paano ko ipapaliwanag sa kanya ang sitwasyon?
Alam kong payag siya sa LDr pero,
Kakayanin ba naming isurvive yun?
