Lumipas ang mga araw at linggo at ngayon ang araw at ngayon nga ay nandito na kami sa New Zealand specifically in Auckland..
Pagkalabas namin sa airport ay may naghihintay na palang sasakyan sa amin.. at may isang lalaki na lumabas at agad lumapit sa amin..
"Hello miss.. How's your Flight.. I'm Bobby Mr. Kim send me here to pick you up.. Shall we?" Formal nitong saad at binuksan ang backseat... Oo nga pala sinabi ni Dad na may ipapadala syang susundo sa amin..
"Thank you Bobby" saad ng asawa ko at inalalayan ko syang pumasok.. Kinuha ni Bobby ang mga gamit namin at nilagay sa likod..
Pinaandar na ni Bobby ang sasakyan patungo sa lugar na tinukoy ni Jennie habang ako ay tumitingin sa labas.. Nakakamangha yung mga naglalakihang gusali tapos nakita ko rin yung sikat na Sky Tower dito..
"Ang ganda" Wala sa sarili kong bigkas..
"You Like it..?" Tanong ni Jennie sa akin at hinawakan ang kamay ko.. Tumango lang ako na hindi na nakatingin sa kanya at sa labas pa rin nakatutok ang mga mata ko..
"Now I'm Jealous.." ingit nito ng hindi ko sya binalingan.. kaya napatawa nalang ako sa kanya.. pati c Bobby ay napatawa na rin ng mahina..
"Love naman.. ikaw parin ang pinakamagandang tanawin na gusto kong makita araw-araw.." saad ko at hinalikan ang kamay nya.. Agad syang namula at nagsumiksik sa akin..
"You're making me blush.." sagot nito at hinampas hampas ako.. Napahalakhak ako sa inasta nito at binigyan sya ng mabilis na halik..
Niyakap ko sya at sumandal sya sa dibdib ko.. mukhang napagod sya ah..at Ilang sandali lang ay nakatulog ito..
Nung makarating kami sa isang maganda at modernong bahay.. 2 stories ito at may garahe din..
"We're Here" bigkas ni Bobby.. kita ko na mahimbing na natutulog ang asawa ko at ayoko sana syang gisingin pero kailangan dahil nasa kanya ang susi..
"Love" pagtapik ko sa kanya at unti unting bumukas ang mga mata nito..
"Andito na daw tayo" saad ko at hinalikan sya.. umupo sya ng maayos at tumingin sa labas
Kita sa mata niya ang saya, pagkasabik at lungkot..
Pinagbuksan kami ng pinto ni Bobby at nauna akong lumabas para alalayan si Jennie..
"Thank you Love.." pagpapasalamat nito sa akin at muli akong hinalikan
Ipinasok ni Bobby ang mga gamit namin sa loob at pagkatapos ay lumapit sya sa amin..
"Miss.. I'll leave the car here, just call me if you need anything or if you're already leaving.. And also I already bought some Groceries and put it in the kitchen" pagpapaliwanag nito.. at binigay sa akin ang susi ng kotse
"Maram-.. este Thank you" pagpapasalamat ko sa kanya at ngumiti lang ito at tumango..
"You're welcome. I should leave now for the both of you to take a rest" Sagot nya.. umalis..
Pumasok na kami sa loob ng bahay pagpasok ay namangha ako sa linis at pagkakagawa ng loob..
"This is where I grew up and this house is full of memories with my mom" walang ano ano'y nagsalita si Jennie at ramdam sa boses nya ang lungkot..
"Hey.. Love wag ka na malungkot.. I'm here.." pagpapagaan ko sa loob nya bago sya yakapin..
"I just missed her.." naluluha nitong sabi..
"Shhhhh.. wag ka na umiyak.. I tour mo nalang kaya muna ako" masigla kong sabi sa kanya.. at sa wakas ay ngumiti na ito..
Hinila ako ni Jennie at ipinakita sa akin ang Kitchen, Sala, sa likod at sa mga kwarto sa taas..
"And now.. this is my room".. saad nito at binuksan ang isang pink na pintuan.. Malawak ang loob at malinis hindi lang yung kwarto nya kundi pati yung buong bahay.. kaya nagtaka ako kung may nakatira dito habang wala si Jennie.. pero kukunti lang ang mga gamit..
"I hire someone to take care and clean the house that's why it's dust free" hagikgik nito ng makita ang nagtataka kong mukha.. Tumango tango lang ako..
"Love.. magpahinga ka na muna.." saad ko pagkatapos..
"Let's rest then" sagot nya at hinila ako para magbihis..
"Love where do you want to go" tanong nya ng nakahiga na kami sa kama.. Hmm..
"Love ikaw ang bahala.. we have 2 days to explore" sagot ko sakanya.. Hindi naman kasi ako familiar sa mga lugar dito
"Really.. I have many places in mind" excited nitong sabi..
"Basta masaya at nag eenjoy ka" nakangiti kong sabi.. at ngumiti lang din sya sa akin bago nya ako halikan..
"I love you" maya maya ay bigkas nito
Ngumiti ako sa kanya at hinaplos ang mukha nito..
"I love you too" sagot ko bago sya muling halikan..
"I love you more" pagpapatuloy nito..
"I love you too" sagot ko pa rin at kumunot ang noo nya..
"Love walang salita ang makakapagsabi kung gaano kita kamahal" saad ko ng nakangiti bago pisilin ang pisngi nito.. at agad syang namula..
"You're making me blush again" at kinurot ako sa tagiliran.. tumawa lang ako bago sya yakapin..
Ilang sandali lang ay ramdam ko ang malalim nitong paghinga senyales na nakatulog na ito..
Dahan-dahan akong kumalas sa kanya at bumaba para maghanda ng hapunan.. tinignan ko ang mga binili ni Bobby at napagdesisyonanang magluto ng Adobo..

***Fast Forward***
Nagising ako na wala akong katabi sa kama.. pagtingin ko sa cellphone ko ay 9 na pala ng umaga.. at napamura ako dahil ang haba pala ng tulog ko..
Agad kong inayos ang pinagtulugan namin.. at lumabas sa kwarto..
"Love" pagtawag ko.. pero walang sumasagot..
"Love!" Sigaw kong muli pero wala pa rin.. kaya doon na ako kinabahan ...
Pumasok ulit ako sa kwarto at tinignan ang banyo kung nandoon sya pero wala.. Agad akong bumaba at tinignan sya sa kusina, sa sala at sa likod pero wala akong Jennie na nakita.. at mas tumindi ang kaba na nararamdaman ko..
Saan naman kaya sya nagpunta.. isip isip ko..
Nag alala ako dahil baka lumabas ito at baka kung anong mangyari sa kanya..
Kinuha ko ang cellphone ko at tinawagan siya... Pero nagtaka ako kung bakit may nagriring sa taas.. at ringtone ng Cellphone ni Jennie..
Agad akong umakyat at hinanap kung saan nanggagaling yung tunog.. pero hindi ko mahanap Kaya Denial kung muli ang cellphone nya
Sinundan kong muli Ito hanggang sa makarating ako sa pinakadulo pero nagulat ako na may isang kwarto pa pala dun na nakatago.. at itim ang kulay ng pinto nito..
Hindi kasi makikita ang kwarto sa malayo kasi nakatago ito..
Nakakapagtaka na hindi pinakita sa akin ni Jennie ang kwarto na to sa akin kahapon..
Kahit nakucurious kung anong nasa loob ay ayoko pa rin sanang pumasok kasi parang nakakatakot tignan..
Pero nung maalala ko na dun nanggagaling yung tunog ng Cellphone ni Jennie at nag alala ako dahil baka kung anong nangyari sa kanya sa loob kaya nilakasan ko ang loob ko at lumapit dun sa kwarto..
Pinihit ko ang door knob at hindi ito naka lock..
"Jen" bigkas ko ng mabuksan ko ito at sumilip pero napakadilim sa loob at wala akong makita..
Kinapa ko ang switch ng ilaw nagbabakasakali na nandito lang sa gilid at tama nga ako kaya agad ko itong pinindot..
Pero pagbukas ng ilaw at nabigyan ng liwanag ang buong kwarto ay nagulat ako at hindi ko inaasahan ang makikita ko sa loob
Hindi ko alam kung anong mararamdaman ko pagkakita ko kung anong meron sa loob.. Pagkalito, Kaba, at Takot? Ito ang unang kong nararamdaman..
Mukhang hindi ko pa lubusang kilala ang asawa ko..

***Years ago**
I'm running away from home while my vision is blurry because of the tears coming from my eyes... I just heard my parents talking that they are going to divorce..
I run and run until my feet stop on a playground.. I saw a swing and choose to sit there...
I have so many questions in mind why my parents choose to separate... I know Dad is always busy in the company but why do they have to separate... How about our family..
I just sit there and pour my emotions.. until I feel that someone or should I say group of boys are standing in front of me.. I think they're are around my age.. I'm 9 years old by the way..
I was confuse why did they approach me but then one of them started to mock me.. until his friends join him..
"Such a cry baby.. huhuhuhu" one of them said.. they're 4 in total
"Ang iyakin mo naman" boy 2.. I didn't understand what he said because my First language is English and my parents didn't teach me Tagalog..
I just stared at them without saying anything.. and I think they started to get pissed when I didn't respond..
"Pipi ka ba.. o bingi ba't di ka nagsasalita jan.." boy 3 said .. and once again I didn't understand anything...
"What" I asked confuse and wipe my tears..
"Uyy.. Englishera pala.." boy 4.. and suddenly they started laughing..
"We said you're a Loserrr" Boy 2.. and after that they went beside me and started to swing the swing I'm currently sitting..
I got scared because my feet is hanging and didn't reach the ground..
"S-..stop" I said.. gripping tightly on the swing for me not to fall.. I started to cry again because of this bullies..
Instead of listening to me they just laugh and continue to swing the swing faster.. until I can't hold anymore and dropped my body on the ground.. I can feel my knees were scratched..
"Hahaha.." they laugh seeing me crying on ground while holding my knee..
"Anong ginagawa nyo" someone suddenly shouted.. from behind and when I looked back I saw a cute girl coming near me.. amd I think she's younger than me..
"Uyyy.. nandito na yung weirdo" boy 4 said..
"Hahaha.. oo nga mukhang magpapakabayani na naman" Boy 2.. I didn't understand what they're saying but I think this girl is going to help me..
The girl came to my side and help me stand up..
"Are you ok" she asked with That cute voice and cute face of her.. Ok she's all in all cute..
"Y-..yes" I answered.. she hold my hand and I slightly blushed.. what's happening to me..
"Wag ka na umiyak.. iaalis kita dito" she said smiling but I just nod even if I can't understand her..
We are about to leave those bullies when they quickly went in front of us.. and spread their arm stopping us..
"Hep.. weirdo saan mo dadalhin yung kaibigan namin".. boy 2..
"Anong kaibigan.. pinapapaiyak nyo sya tapos tatawagin nyo syang kaibigan.." she said..
"Bakit ka ba nangingi alam.. ".. Boy 3..
"Kasi pinapapaiyak nyo sya.. tabi tabachoy" she said and let go of my hand to push them..
"Ano sabi mo".. Boy 3 said pissed and push the cute girl..
"Sabi ko.. tabi.. TaBaChoy" she repeated and the boy became angry and Push forcely push the cute girl but the next thing happened make me gasped..
Her head hit the edge of the swing.. and her body dropped on the ground and she became unconscious..
"Hala lagot.." boy 1 said in panicked..
"T-tara na" Boy 3 said afraid and they run..
I was still stunned on what happened and when I recover I immediately went beside her..
"Hey.. wake up" I said tapping her cheeks and I'm starting to cry again...
I hold her head and then I feel something warm and sticky on my hand.. and I almost scream when I saw what it is..
'blood...
"Help!!.. Please help!! " I shouted with shaking voice..
"Someone Help!!" I shouted again.. and people started to gather around us..
"Help please" I said but they're just standing there whispering and seem they don't have any plan to help us..
"Tabi.. tabi" a man said and push the crowd around us..
"Pr-..pranpiya.. anak!!" The man shouted and came to us..
"Anak!!.. gumising ka.. Anong nangyari" he suddenly turn to me.. but I really can't understand what he said..
"I..-..I-" I was suddenly cut off when someone called me..
"Jennie!" I turn and saw my mom running to me..
"Thank God you're fine.. I'm so worried.." she said hugging me..
"Mom.. the girl.. s-she.. she's hurt because of me".. I explained..
"Who?"..
"Her" I pointed them.. but then the man already carried the girl who save me and ride a taxi...
"Mom..Her.. let's follow them" I told her and try to pull her but then she didn't let me..
"Jennie.. they're already gone.." she said..
"No mom.. the girl is hurt because of me.. her head is bleeding".. I said crying..
"Shhhh Jen.. let's go home.. we still have to prepare.." she said and then I suddenly remember what I heard.. and cry harder..
When we went home I'm still worrying about that girl.. I want to know if she's alright but I didn't even know where she live..
My parents told me what they talked about and they're really going to push their divorce.. of course I protest but they didn't listen to my plea..
They let me choose whom I want to go with.. I go with Mom because Dad is always busy..
I want to stay with my father because we're very close and I'm a Daddy's girl but when the company expanded he doesn't have much time with us..
A week had passed my Mom and I went to New Zealand and that is the start where our child and mother relationship grow and became closer..
But... I Still remember that cute girl who save me from those bullies.. I can't forget that cute face and that beautiful smile of her.. Because of her I started to learn the Filipino Language. Then I remembered something that the man called her that day..
"Pranpiya.." I said smiling..
I will find her..
