MAY araw na nang magising siyang muli. Hindi niya namalayan na nakatulog siya ulit kanina habang katabi si Sebastian, paggising niya ay wala na ito sa loob ng kanyang silid. 

Tumungo siya sa kusina at nagtimpla ng kape, mayroon nang pagkain doon ngunit mamaya nalang siya kakain. She went out in her front porch with a cup of coffee in her hands, then sat at her favorite rocking chair. 

Agad siyang napangiti nang makita sina Sebastian at Rose sa bakuran at naglalaro. Hindi pa ganoon kainit ang araw kaya naroon ang dalawa. Nang makita siya ay kumaway ang mga ito sa kanya na ginantihan niya naman ng kaway. Kapagkuwan at napataas ang kilay nang may ibinulong ang binata sa kanyang anak pagkatapos ay napahagikhik ang huli.

    NAGISING SI Magenta nang maramdaman ang brasong yumakap sa kanyang katawan."Hmm..." she moaned softly when he gave her shoulder light kisses. "Merry Christmas," he whispered to her ear tenderly. Tumihaya ng higa si Magenta at ikurap-kurap ang namimigat pa niyang mga mata. Kapagkuwan ay banayad siyang ngumiti nang luminaw ang kanyang paningin at makita si Malcolm na nakatingin sa kanya. Tumaas ang kanyang kamay patungo sa ulo nito at masuyong hinaplos ang buhok ni Malcolm patungo sa pisngi nito habang nanatiling magkahugpong ang kanilang mga mata. Her heart was beating too fast, Malcolm was staring at her with too much affection in his eyes. Hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin siya masanay-sanay, there were still butterflies fluttering inside her tummy, her veins were racing, her senses were in haywire every time Malcolm was with her."Merry Christmas, Mal," she said while caressing his lips. Napatingin siya sa mga labi nito, she wanted to feel its softness. At hindi siya nabigo dahil

    "Sit down, Malcolm," utos ni Gail nang akmang tatayo ang binata. She sighed deeply and looked at her nephew sympathetically. "I was with Marcus with his last minutes, Mal. He wanted me to deliver a message to you."Malcolm groaned in disapproval, he didn't want to hear it. "He had Alzheimer's! What message could he possibly want you to tell me when he couldn't remember me! When he couldn't remember what he did to my mother! To my whole family! I loathe him, Gail! He should have suffered in his last moment because of the crime he had committed to my family, but he couldn't remember a thing! He couldn't remember!" Malcolm burst. His voice raised in anger.Umiling si Gail nang marinig ang outburst ng pamangkin. Naiintindihan niya kung bakit ito nagagalit sa pagka-alala sa ama, ngunit kailangan niyang sabihin ang mga salitang gustong iparating ni Marcus dito. "No, Mal. He remembered. Marcus hadn't completely forgotten everything he did, there

    TUMIHAYA NG HIGA si Malcolm nang maalimpungatan. Hindi niya agad napansin na nasa dulo na siya ng kama kaya nahulog siya sa sahig. "Shit!" he muttered an oath crispily as he felt the pain in his back, but it was nothing compare to the throbbing of his head. Sumandig siya sa kama at mariing napapikit habang pinapahupa ang pananakit ng kanyang ulo dahil sa hangover. Nang ituwid niya ang mga binti at may matamaang kung anong bagay ay nagmulat siya ng mga mata subalit matindi pa rin ang pagkakunot ng noo at pagtatagis ng mga bagang. The hangover was hellish. Sinipa niya ang bote ng alak na wala nang laman at agad na gumulong patungo sa mga iba pa. He groaned, seeing how many empty bottles were on the floor, they were evidence that he had drunk last night to oblivion. Pinilit niyang tumayo para lang muling mapasalampak ng higa ng pahalang sa kanyang kama. His body was too heavy to move, at ang ulo niya ay para bang minamartilyo. That was the wo

    Inabot ni Suzette ang kamay ni Magenta at pinisil ang palad nito. Alam niya ang gusto nitong sabihin kahit na hindi nito naituloy iyon. Some feelings were just too strong to let go anNatatd forget."I know I am in no position to give you advice, after all, I am the reason why this is happening... No, Jen," mabilis na pigil ni Suzette kay Magenta na akmang kukuntrahin naman ang kanyang sinabi kasabay ng kanyang pag-iling. "We can't deny the fact that I played a big role in everything that had happened and happening right now. The moment I met you, I felt that you were all that Malcolm needed. And I wasn't wrong, you changed him, Jen, you changed everything in his life. You might not believe this, but I saw Malcolm smile genuinely for the first time since the day I met him again. He was inside his office then, holding a photograph while smiling, and later I found out that it was your fake wedding picture. He had kept one in his wallet. And when you left, the

    SHE CAN REMEMBER. She can remember everything now after hearing Rebecca's story, who does not know that she had temporary amnesia.From curling on top of Malcolm's bed while pulling her hair to lessen the throbbing of her head because of her memories that came back in a flash of lightning, she stopped from squirming and smiled weakly at Rose when she noticed her near the door frame. Rose was looking at her with confusion."C-come here..." she said weakly and urged her daughter to come closer.When Rose climbed on top of the bed, she embraced her tightly as her tears started to flow like waters that escaped a dam.
