Pieces
Mabilis akong pumasok sa lobby ng hotel. I looked around and get to their receptionist. Sabi ni Kuya ay dito na lamang kaming magkitang dalawa. I got a suite and wait him here. He just arrived in Japan and I am too. Tamang tama lamang pala ang flight na nakuha ko. I looked at the window and saw how amazing Tokyo is.
After leaving in Travis's home, I went straight to get the ticket, pagkatapos ay bumalik ng condo. Pagkatapo ng usapin naming iyon ay hindi na muli kaming nagkita. For the following days only Kai, Zillion and Dominic visit to the condo. Travis and Sebastian met them outside, madalas ay kumakain sila sa labas. I didn't go though, dahil si Annie naman ang sadya ng mga ito. They are the real squad from the start at naiintindihan din nila ang sitwasyon namin ni Travis.
Their company didn't compare our breakup, kaya nanatilig espekulasyon iyon. But the public holds to the idea that we're not in a relationship anymore. Lalo pa at nakikita sa picture ang madalas na paglabas ng grupo kasama si Annie na wala ako. The only things they confirm are that the situation I have and Annie is good and they will make measures if they will read harsh words about me and my family.
The band rank reputation soars high, isama pa ang pagbabalik ng mga ito sa shows. The hates towards them subside and the company value rise to its highest peak since they established it.
Si Dominic ang madalas na nag-uuwi kay Toben sa condo. Hindi rin ito nagrereklamo kapag pinakikusapan kong dalhin niya kay Travis sina Ollie and Vivi. I know he also has a soft spot for the dogs.
Naconfirm na rin ang trabaho ko sa Dubai. I will be working to a bank there. After 2 weeks ay pupunta na ako roon. They just offer me a 1 year contract because they wanted me to experience it, bukas din ang pinto ng mga ito kung gusto kong magrenew o umuwi na.
"Maggie.." I heard the door open and I saw him.
Dali dali ko siyang niyakap. I felt his hand on my back.
"Kuya.." mahina kong sabi.
Bumitaw ako at tinitigan siya. The last time I saw him was a month ago. Halata ang pagkabawas sa timbang nito. He looked different from the Kuya I used to be. Hinaplos ko ang mukha nito at kita ko ang lungkot na dumaan sa mukha nito.
He holds my hand and caress it. "How was your flight?" tumikhin ito at ibinaba ang mga gamit.
"Good, kararating ko lamang" sabi ko at sinundan pa rin siya ng tingin.
He looked tired, broken, and lost. Napapikit ako at napagtanto na kay Annie lahat natuon ang atensyon namin. Not knowing he is hurting too, not realizing he lost his child too. Bukod doon ay nakaaway pa niya sina Mama at Papa. And I bet Dominic didn't talk to him too. Biglang nagbara ang lalamunan ko dahil doon. He looked at me and smiled.
"Kumain na muna tayo," he said and called the receptionist.
Ako naman ay naupo sa kama. I looked at the window and saw how the darkness from the sky dominates us. Kung hindi dahil sa ilaw ng mga buildings at billboards ay tuluyan noon kaming sasakupin.
