CHAPTER 32

Kakauwi lamang ni Ghon mula sa trabaho nang mapansin ang Mommy ni Rain sa living room, she look problematic to something. Wala na ang mga bata, paniguradong tulog na ang mga ito. Simula nang lumabas si Rain sa hospital ay pansamantala na mula silang nanatili doon. Lumapit siya at tumabi sa pangalawang Ina.

“Mom, what happened?” Napapansin kasi nito ang pagka-problemado ng Ina ni Rain. Nanggaling ito sa pag-iyak, basi sa pamumula ng mata nito.

Sofie look at him and sighed heavily. “She's crying whole day, hijo, ayaw niyang tumigil kahit na anong gawin namin. She's looking for him... she misses him so much that I can't stopped her from hurting.”

Ghon admitted that he was hurt. He always felt pain whenever he saw that Rain loved Ilham more. When she's always looking him, feeling the pain because Ilham isn't there by her side. Seeing Rain wake up and immediately search for Ilham was heartbreaking. He couldn't help but feel dejected, remembering that once she used to look for him that way, but now her attention was directed towards someone else.

Si Rain hindi tulad niya. Kung siya noon ay kahit nakalimutan ito ay siya pa din ang mahal, ngayon ay ito ang nakalimutan at pati ang nararamdaman para sa kanya ay nalimutan na din nito.

Siguro dahil paulit-ulit niyang sinaktan ito noon. Dumagdag pa nang bago pa siya maaksidente ay iniisip nitong nag-cheat siya dahil sa ginawang paghalik ni Lore sa kanya. Nakuha nito ang kakaibang pagmamahal mula kay Ilham... pagmamahal na totoo.

Kung sana lang kaya niyang ibalik ang nakaraan, kung saan mahal na mahal pa rin siya ng dalaga. Hindi niya pipiliing iwan ito.

"I can't bear this, hijo. Seeing my daughter like this is breaking my heart." She looked at him, "Can we tell her now? We've hidden this from her for almost four weeks. I think it's time she knows. I promise to Ilham yes, pero anak ko na ang nasasaktan.”

Naiintindihan niya ang nararamdaman nito. Kahit siya ayaw na nakikita nang ganoon ang dating asawa. They are already divorce. Dahil sa pagiging impluwensiya nilang pareho ni Ilham ay nagawa nilang mawalang bisa ang kasal nila ni Rain sa isang linggo.

He doesn't want to see her hurting... ayaw niyang makitang magmakaawa pa ito sa kanya na pabilisin iyon para makasal agad kay Ilham. Ngayon pang kailangan din siya ni Ilham.

Ghon had come to accept that Rain was now in love with Ilham. He couldn't blame her. Ilham was a true gentleman, unlike him who always hurt her. Ilham took care of both Gelle and Rain. Lahat ng mga bagay na hindi niya nagawa ay si Ilham ang gumawa.

"If we tell her, it will hurt her even more. She's already in pain now; how much more when she finds out about Ilham's illness. That he's in another country because of his therapy. Pero alam nating hindi din magtatagal dahil sa sakit na mayroon siya,” he said.

“Kung sana lang main—” Sofie stopped what she said when someone interrupt with her.

"W-What do you mean by that? Is Ilham sick?" Rain's voice broke the silence. They both stood up simultaneously, turning to face her. They froze upon seeing her standing at the bottom step of the staircase. "Mommy?"

“R-Rain anak?” Halatang kinakabahan ang ginang habang nakatingin dito.

Bumuntonghininga si Ghon habang nakatingin dito na dahan-dahang lumalapit. Nababahiran na ng luha ang makinis nitong pisngi.

Her wound on her thigh was healing, so she was able to walk slowly. He approached to assist her, but she brushed his hand away. He sighed again.

"Don't touch me! H-How dare you! How dare you keep such important things from me!" she yelled at them.
