Crush Mo Ba Ako

"You left without saying a word, Ciana. Hinanap kita, naghintay ako. Umasa akong babalikan mo 'ko dahil baka sakali na maisip mo ako," napatitig ako sa mga mata niyang kulay kayumanggi ngunit lumuluha. "Tapos ngayon babalik ka na para bang walang nangyari?" nakagat ko ang ibabang labi kasabay ng pagyuko sa kaniyang pangunguwestyon. "Sinisisi mo 'ko kasi hindi kita magawang kausapin ng maayos? Pansinin tulad nang dati?" napapikit ako ng matapos niyang sabihin iyon ay hinampas niya ang pader sa aking tabi. "You think I'm okay? Nasasaktan ako Ciana, kahit sorry man lang galing sa mismong bibig mo wala akong natanggap." Tinitigan ko siya ngunit ako mismo ang nasaktan nang umaagos na ang luha sa mga mata niya. "I'm sorry," mahinang sabi ko. "This is not the right time to do that, because I can't f-forgive you for l-leaving me." Malamig niyang sabi ngunit bakas ang hirap sa pananalita. "Mahal kita at nakalimutan kong may gusto ka nga pa lang iba," hindi ko siya makapaniwalang tinitigan dahil sa sinabi sa akin. "I'm leaving." Paalam ni Mateo tapos tumango at lumabas na ng kwarto.

"Whether you like it or not! You need to abort the baby! I don't need your fucking mercy Iris! You don't have to project yourself as a victim!" Nanlilisik ang mga mata ni Lucas habang nakatitig sa akin. Gusto niya akong burahin sa kaniyang mga mata. Isang basura ang tingin niya sa'kin. Isang maruming asawa. "Pagkatapos mong makuha ang lahat? Ito ang gagawin mo? Ipapalaglag mo ang bata? Wala kang puso. Wala kang awa. Hayop." Hinampas ko si Lucas sa dibdib ng aking mga kamay. Galit ang nararamdaman ko sa kaniya. Niloko niya ako. Ginawa niya akong tanga. Pinaglaruan niya ang nararamdaman ko. Umiiyak lamang ako habang pinapalo ko siya sa dibdib. Gusto siyang saktan. Gusto ko siyang paluin ng mga kamay ko para magising siya sa katotohanan. Wala akong magawa kundi ang hampasin si Lucas sa dibdib habang umiiyak ako. Ang sakit-sakit ng ginawa niya. Isang bagay ang tingin niya sa'kin, na pagkatapos niyang gamitin at pagsawaan ay itapon na lamang. Walang halaga ang pagkababae ko para sa kaniya. Marahas niyang pinigilan ang mga kamay ko. Nangingilid lamang ang mga luha ko. Parang pinipiga ang puso ko nang mga sandaling ito. I thought he is my happily ever after? But I was wrong! The man I adored was hurted me. He broke my heart after all. "Stop being fool Iris. Nothing can blame but you. Dahil ginusto mo ang nangyari sa atin. Ikaw ang may kagustuhan ng lahat," Nanlaki ang mga mata ni Lucas sa akin dahil sa galit. Pagkamuhi ang nararamdaman ng puso niya para sa akin. Agad akong sinakal ni Lucas sa leeg. Napahawak ako sa braso niya. Nakatingala lamang ako sa kaniya, hindi makahinga. Pumapatak ang mga luha ko. "You need to abort the baby. You will do it to protect my identity Iris."
