Silence filled around them. No one dares to talk. The three of them still focusing their glare to nowhere.
"Nak?" Aga broke the silence. Mandi look at him suddenly her tears slid down cheeks.
"Shhhh" Aga wipes the tears using his thumb. She's like a helpless baby hugging her dad by side. There's a space between Lea and Mandi dahil lumayo si Mandi kay Lea.
Mandi's sob become more visible. Her shoulder and back are moving because of it. Aga trying to comfort her. But she saw Lea now start crying too. And staring at them Lea hands gesture to touch Mandi but when her hand touched her. Mandi shrug her shoulder to signal Lea to remove her hand.
Inalis ni Lea ang kamay niya and look at Aga.
"Give her time" Aga mouthed.
After a few minutes. When Aga feel that Mandi is kinda okay. He talk to her again.
"Nak, Mommy want to tell you something. Let mommy explain ha? Try yo listen to her. Is that okay?" Aga lift Mandi's chin to make her face him.
Mandi turn her gaze to Lea and then to Aga. She nod but still looking down.
"Anak sorry" Lea begin to talk. Her voice is trembling. She's crying again. Mandi didn't bother to say something.
