Jade's
I just nodded to althea. I was really nervous and a lot is happening in my mind right now. It was chaos again, my questions made another question, and on and on, it felt endless. I wanted to vommit, my mind couldn't bear it anymore. My whole body was shaking when we got infront of the door of wila and batchi's house.
I remember what i saw in my old phone. Althea was in the bathroom when i tried to check it. There we're a lot of pictures of me, althea, and miggy. But i couldn't remember all of it. I scanned thru the messages and saw some of althea's text messages. i couldn't take it. It was hard to see something i do not remember at all. And in my frustration, I turned it off and just kept it. And after althea, i took a quick shower.
Althea knock at the door and, it opened. I saw a petite woman that looks like a man.
"Oh tsong.. And jade! Hi namiss kita ah? Naalala mo na ba lahat?" She hugged me. But she was still a stranger for me. I couldn't say anything.
"Wait batchi, hindi pa kasi.." Althea cut it off, and batchi took her arms off me.
She looks confused. "Jade, this is batchi, she's my bestfriend." I held my hand to shake her hands and she accepted it.
"Hi batchi, i'm sorry i just got this stupid amnes.." She cut me off. " hey, i know jade. Wag ka magsorry ano ka ba? Okay lang. Tara pasok kayo."
I saw another woman sitting on the couch. She has short curly hair, she looks fearless, i felt intimidated. But she smiled at me, and got into her feet.
"Althea! Jade!" She hugged me, i felt awkward the same way i felt about batchi.
"Pangga kasi.." Batchi tried to explain, pero inunahan na siya ni althea. "Jade this is wila, and be careful with her, baliw yan." I smiled.
"Ay kaloka, hindi ka pa din pala nakakaalala." At umupo kami sa couch. It felt akward kasi nagkatinginan lang lahat kami.
"Uyy saan si miggy? Susunduin na sana namen siya eh, gusto siya makilala at makasama ni jade. Ready na siya."
"Tulog sa kwarto, gisingin mo nalang."
Sabi ni batchi.
"Ah ganun, oh sandali puntahan ko lang. Wag niyo harrasin si jade ah!" Althea remind them. And they just smiled and looked at me. No one even bothered to talk.
My heart was beating fast. I can feel it. My mind is in mayhem. Natulala lang ako, my hands were cold. When i saw althea, along with this cute chubby boy.
"Mommy jade!!!" She ran into me and hugged me. And it was great to see him. All of the worries and fear i felt were suddenly gone. I hugged him back. We stayed a little while in each other arms.
"Namiss po kita mommy jade. Okay ka na po ba?" Pinutol ko ang yakap na yun para makita ang muka nya at hawakan ito.
"Ah eh hindi pa miggy, pero alam mo nararamdaman ko sa puso ko namiss din kita. Pasensya ka na kung ganito ako ngayon ah? Pero masaya ako makita ka."
I just fell inlove with this beautiful boy. Parang anak ko siya, nararamdaman ko, na buo na ang pamilya ko. and my tears suddenly fell to the thought of it. Miggy noticed it and hugged me again.
"Okay lang po mommy jade, masaya rin po akong makita ulit kayo. Wag po kayo magalala, magiging okay din po ang lahat." He sure is one wonderful big boy.
"Miggy, sa bahay ka na ulit uuwi ah? Namimiss ka na namen ni mommy jade mo eh." Althea said with full of excitement.
Nagbonding pa kami saglit, nagkwento sila wila at batchi ng mga ngyare kasama si miggy. And it was already evening, after we had our dinner we decided to get home. We then said our goodbyes and gratitude to the two for taking care of miggy. I felt happy without a little doubt, they are surely fun to be with.
We got into the car. I just stared at my althea. "Thanks lablab." and smiled. It was almost a whisper. She held my hand kissed it and smiled at me back. And she started to drive us home.
"Oh baby boy i know your tired and you have school tomorrow you should take a rest now. Tara ihahatid na kita sa room mo. Mag sshower din si mommy althea mo." I wanted miggy to feel like nothings changed. Althea said goodnight to miggy and kissed him. we headed to his room and i let him freshen up quickly and tuck him in his bed.
"Goodnight baby." I kissed his forehead. And smiled.
"Goodnight, mommy jade! And thank you kasi kumpleto na po ulit tayo. I love you!" He smiled at me, tears started to gather in my eyes. I smiled at him, "i love you too baby." He then closed his eyes, i just stared at him for a moment and turn off the lights, and i headed right away in our bedroom.
Althea's just right there sitting in bed, with her black nighties, she was reading a book, when i entered. I locked the door, just in case we might have something to do tonight. She looks so beautiful and was so tempting.
"Your bath is ready lablab, go freshen up." I just smiled at her and head right to the bathroom. She prepared it just like the other night. I needed that to relaxed, i feel tired, but happy.
I got out of the bathroom with my white nighties. And jumped in the bed beside my althea.
"Thank you for today lablab, i'm really happy." I smiled at her and she put her book to the side table, she carresed my face. "Always jade, thank you din. What makes you happy, makes me happy also." I kissed her i couldn't resist her lips. It was my own version of heroine.
She was then kissing my neck, but i still feel tired, and the next thing i knew it was already morning. Shit. I fell asleep. Nanghinayang ako na hindi natuloy. I was just so tired, and thought that i will just make it up to her tonight. I kissed her forehead she was still sleeping. Got out of the bed and thought of preparing for breakfast.
I was almost done with my dish, althea suddenly hugged me from the back, "goodmorning lablab!" I turned to face her, "goodmorning, hey sorry for last night i was just so tired and.." She suddenly kissed me. It lasted for a couple of minutes. Napasandal ako sa counter we were still kissing, at dalang dala na kami, nagulat kami bigla nang dumating si miggy.
"Ah eh, goodmorning let me just remind you guys na may bata na po ulit dito sa bahay, at may kwarto po kayo so dun lang po yan pwede gawin." Tumawa si miggy and sat down, Shit. This is so embarassing. I felt the blush in my face and saw althea blushed too.
Althea joined miggy in the dining area, and i served our breakfast, and sat down beside althea.
"Sorry baby boy, si mommy althea mo kasi eh." I giggled. At natawa kami lahat, it was an awesome breakfast. We then get ready to drive miggy to school. Althea and i agreed to visit my mom, and dada to let them know that i'm staying with her for good.
We were on the living room, with dada and mama.
"Ahm.. Dada, Mama. I wanted to tell you that, i'm staying with althea from now on, i somehow remember her. My heart remembers her and i love her, she takes good care of me."
"Kung saan ka masaya anak, okay samin ng dada mo." Mama smiled at me and so as dada. I thanked them, and hugged them, we then had lunch and stayed there to have coffee and chat about random things, it was already afternoon and we should probably get going, we still have to fetch miggy.
We had our dinner at a restaurant near our house, and after we headed home.
Miggy is tired so we let him rest right away.
Me and Althea entered our bedroom and, i locked it. I pulled her hand all the way to the bathroom. I couldn't wait any longer.
I kissed her, i wanted her. i want to give her the best night again. She was speechless. We showered together, and got into bed. I let her lay down and started to kissed her, from her lips all they way down. I did all the work that is needed, and i was really trying hard to pleased her. And i succeed. She was moaning and got all out of control as soon as she was satisfied, she were pulling me to meet her lips and she switched our position, she kissed my neck and suddenly felt like i was out of this world.
I would never ever can get enough of althea. She drives me crazy, and i.. I was madly and deeply in love with her. She did great, it was unexplainable. There were no words to describe the feeling. And we made love again.
I still wanted to sleep next to althea's astonishing body, but there was this irritating sound, it was my phone. And my mom was calling. Nagulat ako at tumayo agad, to answer. nagulat din si althea, and i whispered her that it was mama who's on the phone.
"Goodmorning anak! I was just gonna invite you and althea for lunch your ama misses you."
"Goodmorning din ma, wait i'm just gonna ask althea if she have plans for today, hang on." I then turned to althea, covering the mouth piece of the phone.
"Lab, goodmorning sorry to wake you up, mama's inviting us for lunch, miss daw ako ni ama, and i wanted to see her too, do you have any plans for today?"
"Goodmorning din, Well, jade theres a lot to to do in office today. And i have to be there to help batchi. I'll just drive you there after miggy." She smiled and i can see that she still feels sleepy, she closed her eyes, and reach out for my other hand.
I just leaned on her to kiss her forehead and whispered "thank you lab." She smiled but eyes closed.
"Mama, still there?"
"Yes anak."
"Althea would just have to dropped me there, she have to go to work, she has lot of things to do today."
"Ay ganun ba? Okay sige. See you later anak. Bye."
"Bye mama."
And i ended the call, i lay down again, cuddled althea, and fell asleep.
"Mommy jade, mommy!!" Miggy was knocking, Nagulat kaming dalawa ni althea, napatayo kami and looked at each other, we were still naked. And shit, we don't want miggy to be late. Napasarap ata ang tulog namen because of last night.
"Wait lang anak, 10 minutes! Palabas na kami sorry." Althea shouted for miggy to hear it from outside. We then got out of the bed to get ready, althea taked a shower first, while i prepare our clothes. I choose a sexy black cocktail dress for althea, and a pink floral one for me.
It was exactly 10 minutes later when we got out of the room, miggy was then having a sandwich and he made some for me and althea as well. I felt guilty to have been late, and didn't prepare for miggy.
"Sorry baby, late kami nagising ni mommy mo, babaunin nalang namen to. Thank you."
"Okay lang po mommy jade, tara na po."
We hurriedly got into the car, and dropped miggy in his school. After maybe 10minutes later, we got infront of our house.
"Sorry lablab, hindi na kita mahahatid pa sa loob, late na ko and batchi texted me that the client is already there and pissed off. Sorry talaga." She was trying to explain, but it was really okay. Of course I understand.
"Its okay lablab, i'll be fine. ano kaba sige na you gotta go." I smiled, kissed her and gave her quick hug. and out of the car.
I was glad to see ama, nakapagkwentuhan kami. And the lunch went great. I was content, and if i i didn't get my memory back again anytime soon, it wouldn't matter anymore, it was enough that i got althea and miggy and my family.
It was then afternoon, i was having coffee at our lanai, when mom called me, i turn around and saw she's with this typical chinese-filipino guy, fair skinned, maybe a bit taller than me, clean and handsome. My jaw dropped and suddenly got into my feet. I just stared at him, confused.
Flashbacks begun in my mind. The usual chaos when i got to remember something. There were this memory when we were still kids, we dated, we kissed, we made love, and we got married. Dumami nnaman ang mga tanong sa utak ko. Ayoko na, gusto ko nalang kumawala. Hindi ko maintindihan. All this time, i thought it was althea all my life, nobody even try to mentioned i had somebody else, before, or after althea came into my life.
It felt like i can't trust everyone even althea, it was dissapointing, i didn't know what to feel. I can't even believe althea did this to me. I felt betrayed, they know exactly how i wanted to remember, and it was so unfair for them to hide this from me. I couldn't bare it. Suddenly i was doubting myself, my own feelings.
"Anak, you have a visitor. It's david. I know you still don't remember everything. But she's close to you. To our family." I was still there just staring at this stranger guy.
"Hi jade, napadaan lang ako. I heard what happen and sorry i was so busy that i couldn't manage to visit. But you got me really worried, and it was nice seeing you all good now."
I couldn't move, i just frozed there, staring at him, confused.
"Maiwan ko muna kayo ha? I still have to prepare for dinner." Mama said and she headed to the kitchen.
"Uy jade? Are you okay?"
"Ahm, Yeah.. I'm, I'm okay. Take a sit." We sat down and i was still staring at him. I didn't know exactly where to start, i wanted him to tell me everything but it didn't matter, baka kulang kulang nanaman. I couldn't make myself trust him, or anybody else. He was smiling at me as if waiting for me to say something,
"I.. I'm sorry, i just couldn't remember anything but it was nice meeting you david."
It was then evening we had our dinner done, and david said goodbye, he still have something else to do. Tahimik lang ako buong dinner, gulong gulo na ko, feeling ko anytime soon sasabog nalang ako.
Althea suddenly came to fetch me. She stayed for a couple of minutes, at nagpaalam na din kami, para umuwi. Tahimik pa din ako, until we got in the car.
