Pansin ko na kanina pa siya palinga-linga. Hindi din siya lumalayo sa aking pwesto. Mukhang may hinahanap siya. O tamang sabihin na may gusto siya pero nahihiya siyang magsabi. "Kung panghaplas ang hanap mo, kompleto kami. Pantanggal ng lamig sa katawan, para sa binat o kung pantanggal ng kati-kati, mayroon din kami." Nahihiya siyang ngumiti. Tingin ko ay wala sa mga binanggit ko ang kaniyang kailangan. "Magsabi ka lang, lahat mayroon kami dito. May kandila din kami na kulay pula dito para sa pag-ibig." "Mayroon po kayong kandila para sa ano..." Nagtaas ako ng kilay. Ang tagal naman niyang magsabi. Tapos mamaya hindi naman pala siya bibili. "Ano, Ate..." "Kandila para sa lalakeng nanakit sa'yo? Aba, meron kami." Naging malikot ang kaniyang mga mata. Nilabas ko ang kulay itim na kandila. May nakadikit na ding papel dito, kung saan nakasulat iyong orasyon na kailangan niyang gawin. "Sindihan mo ito tuwing alas-dose ng hatinggabi ng byernes. Itong orasyon, ulitin mo ng pitong beses." "Gaano po katagal tatalab, Ate? At okay lang po ba kung hindi hatinggabi magsindi at magdasal?" "Puwede naman. Alas-sais ng gabi, tuwing Myerkules. Ulitin mo lang ito hanggang sa ikapitong Myerkules." "Okay po, Ate. Magkano po?" "One fifty lang." Nagmamadali itong naglabas ng pera. Mabilis niyang sinuksok sa kaniyang bag ang kandila na binili niya. Nakabenta din. Matumal ang bentahan ngayon dahil umalis kami sa dati naming pwesto. Napag-iinitan na din kasi kami ng mga tanod at mga pulis, kaya minabuti na lang namin na lumipat ng puwesto. Matanda na din sina Amang at Inay, bawal na silang ma-stress. Nakaka-stress kapag ganiyan na may huli. "Ano'ng hanap mo, be? Panghaplas sa lamig-lamig at kati-kati, pamparegla, gayuma at kandila para—" "Iyong panghaplas para sa kati-kati, Ate. Kaya po ba niyan matanggal iyong kati-kati ng asawa at kabit niya?" Napatawa ako. Hindi lang si Ate ang lumapit sa amin na mayroong ganitong hinaing. "Ay, hindi siya tatablan ng haplas, Ate," sagot ko naman. "Pero may solusyon ako diyan..." Nilabas ko iyong kandila na korteng tao. "May picture ka n'ong kabit?" tanong ko. Mukhang handang-handa naman siya dahil mabilis nitong nilabas mula sa bag ang isang larawan. Napangiwi ako. "Mas maganda ka naman ng di hamak dito sa kabit, Ate." Ngumiti siya. "May kasabihan na talo ng malandi ang maganda." Napailing-iling ako. Inabot ko sa kaniya iyong kandila. "Isuksok mo iyong picture diyan, tapos sindihan mo ang kandila. Hintayin mo hanggang sa matunaw ng buo." "Effective ba 'to?" "Oo naman, Ate. Tiyak na mawawala ang kati-kati ng kabit na iyan. Kung hindi, ibang kati-kati na ang maramdaman niya." Nilabas niya ang kaniyang wallet. "Magkano?" "Iyan ba ang asawa mo?" Nasilip ko kasi ang picture sa kaniyang wallet. Kung ako sa kaniya, ipamigay na lang niya ang kaniyang asawa. Pangit na nga, nagawa pang magloko. Hindi talaga totoo iyong sinasabi ni Andrew E na humanap ka ng pangit at ibigin mo ng tunay. Kadalasan kung sino pa ang pangit, sila pa ang malakas ang loob na magloko. Kung pipili ka sa pagitan ng pogi na manloloko at pangit na manloloko, aba, doon ka na sa pogi. At kung mayroon namang guwapo na mayaman pero manloloko, sa kaniya ka na lang din. Praktikal lang, di ba? Pagkatapos magbayad nagpunta na siya sa gilid kung saan magsisindi ng kandila. Madami na din ang ibang customer na nakapuwesto doon. Gumagawa ako ng pulseras para sa bata nang may lumapit sa akin na babae at lalake. Mukhang bata pa sila at mukhang alam ko na din kung ano ang kailangan nila. "Ano'ng hanap nila? Mayroon kaming iba't ibang halamang gamot, mayroon din kaming pamparegla." "Ate, mayroon kayo iyong ibang pamparegla?" Napangiwi ako. "Hindi kasi tumalab iyong halamang gamot, e." Hindi ako umimik. Sa totoo lang, tinatablan na din ako ng konsensya sa pinaggagawa ko na ganito. Iniisip ko nga na baka hindi na ako makapag-asawa pa. O kaya naman ay magkaasawa pero iyong sasaktan lang ako. Bumuntong hininga ako. Mabilis namang lumapit sa puwesto ko iyong tindera sa dulo. Alam na alam niya kapag ganito na ang aking itsura. "Ano'ng hanap nila?" pabulong na tanong niya sa magkasintahan. "Doon na lang kayo, Ate..." Ngumisi ito sa akin. Ang bata-bata pa, gagawa na ng bata tapos hindi naman kayang panindigan. Mga kabataan ngayon, oo. Pinag-aaral pero iba ang ginagawa. Bumalik na din sa puwesto ko iyong babae kanina. Natunaw na iyong kandila. "Eh, paano kung mawala na iyong amor ng kabit sa asawa ko pero iyong asawa ko, humaling pa din sa kaniya?" "May solusyon ako diyan, Ate," sabi ko naman. Nilabas ko iyong isa sa aming gayuma. "Ipainom mo ito sa asawa mo. Ihalo mo sa kaniyang inumin." Napapagod na akong magpaliwanag. Nakasulat naman na sa papel iyong dapat na gawin kung paano gagana ang gayuma. Mayroon kaming iba't ibang klase ng gayuma para sa iba't ibang sitwasyon. Pagkatapos magbayad nanumpa pa si Ate. "Kapag naging maayos ang relasyon namin ng asawa ko, babalikan kita. Bibigyan kita ng pera." Ngumiti ako at tumango-tango. "Magiging maayos ang relasyon niyo, Ate." Kung hindi, hiwalayan mo na ang pangit mong asawa, isip-isip ko. Sa ganda niya nagawa pa siyang lokohin ng pangit niyang asawa. Pasara na ako ng tindahan nang dumating si Ate Rose. Dati siyang bumili ng gayuma sa akin. Ginayuma niya ang kaniyang guwapong amo. Ayun, masaya na siya ngayon. Patay na patay sa kaniya ang kaniyang asawa. "Oh, Ate Rose. Napadaan ka dito. Huwag mong sabihing bibili ka ulit ng gayuma?" "Naku, hindi." Tumawa siya. "Eh, ano? Pamparegla?" Napangiwi siya. "Ikaw. Bibilhin kita." Napangiwi ako. "Naku, Ate, ha. Nagbebenta lang ako ng mga gayuma at kandila dito pero hindi ako nagbebenta ng aking laman." "Hindi mo kasi ako pinapatapos na magsalita, e." Nagkamot ako ng ulo. "Di ba, marunong kang maghilot ng buntis? Pahilot sana ako sa'yo." "Hindi pa ako bihasa, pero sabi nila nakakagaling daw ang kamay ko. Kaso wala tayong puwesto dito, e." "Sa bahay na lang. Puntahan mo ako doon." Binigay niya ang address niya sa akin. "Babayaran kita ng malaki. Papahilot din pala ang byenan ko." "Sige po, Ate." Ayos! May raket ako. Sina Amang at Inay na lang muna ang magbebenta bukas.QUINN’S POV“I’m sorry. I know it wasn’t enough but… I am sincerely sorry for everything”I am at the jail to visit Tyler. We haven’t talked since the first time again that we saw each other. I asked him so many questions about the past.It was great to open up everything to him about what happened to us before. I asked him if he loved me before and I think he’s giving an answer with all honesty. Not disappointed though that he doesn’t love me that much but I’m over it anyway.“I am sure that you will understand that I couldn’t forgive you that easy after what you did”“I know. It’s too late for me to regret everything”“Yes, you are”“But I still hope and wait for your forgiveness, Quinn”“Eventually… maybe I will… who knows?”“Yeah. That’s great”He smiled at me and I don’t see any reason why I shouldn’t smile back even if it was forced.After seeing him here, everything felt so light to me. This is what I have been waiting for to finally be happy and free. I just want justice and n
EVANDER’S POV“What did she say? Did you convince her?” Tyler rushed to come to me.I took a sigh and speak, “No”“What?!! Tsk! That girl is so hard to talk to!” he rants stomping his feet.“You should face this mess, Tyler. It’s about time for you to clean this up” I straightly told him.“What?! Are you insane?!! Are you telling me to admit that I raped her and send myself to jail?!! Don’t be stupid!!!”“I am not stupid!! I am telling you the right thing to do!! She’s traumatized! I witnessed how cold she is and how she cried in fear when it almost happened to her again and you’ve caused that to her!!”I am already shouting at him. It just feels so heavy inside. It’s so difficult for me to choose between the two of them.“Did you understand the consequences? Remember that you’re in this mess!!”“A ness that you put me into!!”“So, you’re blaming me now?!”“Yes! Because technically this was all yours!! Now I regret why I helped you and put the girl I love into this misery”“So, it’s
RHYS’S POV“He’s back”I keenly observe how her reaction changed. Her aura darkened and she was on that cold Quinn again.I wasn’t lack of knowledge that the previous, Quinn was slowly getting out of her shell and I am happy that finally she loosens up and that’s actually one of the reasons why I distanced myself. If Evander is the reason why she’s getting back to her old self, I don’t want to ruin that opportunity for her.“Are you ready?” she asked.Am I? I don’t know what to do as of now. Everything feels so messy and hard to deal. I’m not fully prepared for this day to come. Never thought that day is finally now.“Not sure though”“You should be. It’s about time”“You sure about this?”“When I will be sure if not now? I can’t let the opportunity slip that he’s here so I can finally send him to jail. You’re willing to help me, right? You promised?”Yeah, I did and I have the intention of doing that promise. I don’t want to disappoint her just like I did before.“That’s the reason w
QUIN’S POVAfter a talk with mom, I headed upstairs and immediately throw myself at the bed but I also have to get up to fix all my things I brought back from our quick vacation.Huh? How did this cap get into my bag? Who put it in here??I dashed downstairs and check the living room where mom and I talked and surprisingly, I saw the cap that Evander handed me.Then means that this cap isn’t mine but it exactly looks like mine. I bought that from a souvenir store in the resort. Who could this be?I’ll just return this to him tomorrow maybe. I couldn’t have this if mine is at my bag.…The next day, I woke up early and I am able to catch mom downstairs so we had breakfast together. It’s been long since we haven’t eaten together since we got here.“Can we do this often?” mom suddenly asked.I just smiled as a response while chewing my food.“I kind of miss us together in the dining… those happy moments with your dad---”“Mom…”I don’t want to hear anything about him. I don’t want to rem
QUINN’S POV“Is everything set and ready?” Rhys asked after we are all gathered outside.“Evander is not here yet---”“I’m here!”He’s coming close with his bags on his shoulder until our eyes met and I have to look away because I f*cking feel awkward!This is not me! I always have the ability to play with guys seducing them just to get revenge and now he can easily tame me. This is so irritating.“Let’s go” I said and pull up all my things and walk first before them.We ride a to the airport silently and I like how quite it is. After reaching the airport, we buy tickets and waited for a while before we take off. Every one of us is already inside the plane so I have to find my seat beside the window, as what I always like to be positioned.I seated and waited for Rhys to come since he’s last on the line while I am first so I got a seat first among us all.“Where are you going?” I asked when I finally saw Rhys but he’s passing me towards the back.“My seat is at your back” he simply st
QUINN’S POV“Quinn!”And the devil is here again. He will never get rid of me. He sits beside me like nothing had happened. I don’t know how he can act so normal after what has happened or maybe it’s just me who feels a little awkwardness because that kiss.“I lose balance that’s why it happened” I spoke to him. I have to say it first before he thinks of something else.“Hmm… that sounds impossible but okay…”“Are you saying that intentionally did that?” I fiercely asked while glaring at him.“Woah, I didn’t say anything like that” he denied.I felt a sudden irritation after his response that he tries to deny what he just said.“Why don’t you just leave me and come with them?” I irritatingly spoke.All of them were enjoying dancing with the loud music and annoying lights that get to my eyes. I don’t want to come here but since I was the reason why they haven’t didn’t enjoyed yesterday, I just want to at least come and have my presence here and let them enjoy the night.“You will be al
