Ramdam na ramdam ko ang tensiyon sa pagitan naming dalawa. Napako padin ang ang tingin niya sa kamay kung puno na ng dugo.
"Let me see it," mahinahong sabi niya at akma sanang hahawakan ang kamay ko.
"Just fcking go. Stop acting like you care."
Nakita kung nag iba ang emosyon sa mukha niya o baka namamalikmata lang ako. He's worried or he's just pretending.
"What happened to your shoulder?" tanong nito.
"It's none of your bussiness," walang emosyong sabi ko at iniwan ito. Hindi ko na kaya ang subrang sakit. My wound is still fresh. Agad kung kinuha ang phone ko at tinawagan si David.
Ilang sandali lang ay nakita ko na itong naglalakad papunta sa akin dala ang bago kung damit.
I smile before getting my things. Sinamahan niya ako papunta sa Comfort Room para makapagbihis. He's not allowed inside kaya hinintay niya ako sa labas.
I take off my dress at ganun nalang ang pag-aray ko ng sumagi sa sugat ko ang damit. Bago ko isuot ang bago kung damit. Nilinis ko muna ang sugat ko at nilagyan ng bagong bandage na dala ni David at sinuot ko na din ang bago kung damit. Tinignan ko ang mukha ko at maayos naman kaya di ko na kailangan pang magretouch. Lumabas ako at nakita ko si David na naghihintay. I hand him my clothes and went back to our table. Nakita ko si Harrizon, wala itong imik. I walk towards our table at dahang dahang umupo sa tabi niya.
"Hija, where have you been?" tanong ni Tita Eula.
"Nag Cr lang po ako," tipid na sagot ko. My dad is busy talking to Harrizon's dad Mr. Hitori Yamazaki.
Wala akong magawa kaya kinain ko nalang ang dessert na nakahain sa harapan ko. I stop eating when I heard my parents talking about Mezaru.
"Have you seen the news?" tanong ni Tito Hitori kay daddy.
"About what?" tanong ni dad.
"Just this evening. Mezaru Clan was masacred. Mr. Mezaru is dead while his son and wife is missing," sabi ni Tito. I stay quite while drinking my wine.
"Yes, I have seen the news. I'm thankful for that person. Finally, his reign finally ended," nakangiting sabi ni daddy while looking towards my direction.
"Honestly speaking, I'm not favored for that person. Instead of killing them why not let them rot in jail," singit ni Harrizon.
Napatikhim nalang ako.
"Let's stop talking about them. We're just wasting our time. Why not talk about our children's upcoming engagement party," nakangiting sabi ni tita.
"Yes Euls. I'm already excited," sabi naman ni mommy.
Napabuntong hininga nalang ako. Wala naman akong mapapala kundi sakit. Mabuti pa sila excited samantalang ako broken na broken.
"Mom, Thyrex and I talk and we decided to extend our engagement next year. We want to focus on our studies first," he lied. Tsk! What an asshole. We never talked about that.
"Tama ba yun hija?" tanong ng mommy niya.
I smile and just nod my head.
"That's not a problem. They're still young. Let them enjoy their life first," my daddy said making me smile. He really knows how to comfort me.
Napatango silang lahat. Natapos ang dinner namin na hindi na muling pinag usapan ang tungkol sa engagement namin. I feel sick kaya iniwan ko nalang sila na nag uusap. I went to our car where David is waiting. Pinagbuksan niya ako agad ng makita niya akong walang buhay na naglalakad.
