SABRINA

AFTER kong tumae ay naghugas na ko ng kamay at lumabas ng CR. I looked at Storm's small room here in his dormitory. This is really small compared to my unit and our house but this feels more home.

Walang gana akong umupo sa upuan at tinitigan ang phone ko na nasa ibabaw ng lamesa. I'm still waiting for my Dad's call or text. Simula nang malaman niyang hindi niya tunay na anak si Theo ay hindi na siya nagpakita sa'kin. Tatlong araw na siyang hindi nagpaparamdam.

I know he's hurting but I need him. I miss him so much.

Sumilip ako sa bintana na katabi lang ng lamesa. The clouds are so dark that I can barely see the sun rays. The weather describes what I'm feeling right now: gloomy and heavy.

I'm just so grateful that Storm and my friends has always been there for me. Kung wala sila, hindi ko na alam ang mangyayari sa'kin.

I quivered when my phone beeped. Dali-dali kong binuksan ang message nang makitang galing iyon kay Daddy.

From: Daddyyyyy <3

Sab sweetheart, can we meet today? I just want to talk to you.

Halos rayumahin na ang mga daliri ko sa bilis nang pag-reply ko. Siya ang nag-set ng place and time ng pagkikita namin. While preparing, I texted Storm many times para magpaalam kaya lang hindi siya nagre-reply sa'kin, hindi rin siya sumasagot sa tawag ko.

Ang sabi niya sa'kin pupunta lang siya kay Nicco dahil may iaabot siya pero nakakapagtaka namang hindi siya sumasagot. Ano na kayang nangyari do'n?

Before driving, I texted Storm for one last time.

To: Stormyyyy <3

Stormy, umalis muna ko ng dorm mo just minutes ago. My dad finally called me and gusto niyang makipagkita. I called and texted you for many times already at hindi ka sumasagot. No, hindi ako galit. I'm more of worried. I love you so much.

Hindi naman talaga ko galit. Of al the things Storm did for me, who am I to be angry? I'm really worried dahil wala pa talaga siyang tulog dahil night shift siya sa OJT kagabi.

I smiled upon receiving his reply.

From: Stormyyyy <3

I'm sorry, baby. I just did something important. I will tell you everything sooner. I love you so much.

And I trust him. Kahit naman couple kami may sarili pa rin kaming mga buhay kaya hihintayin ko na lang siyang kusang magsabi sa'kin ng mga ginagawa niya ngayon kesa kulitin siya nang kulitin.

While the traffic light is on red, I stared on my wallpaper. It was our drunk picture and we were so happy and carefree. Hindi ko alam pero bigla na lang akong nagging emosyonal. Kusang tumulo ang luha ko habang tinitignan iyon, habang nagfla-flashback sa isipan ko ang mga happy memories namin.
