Reminisce In Sentence の小説・ストーリー

I heard Bina's voice answered. The memories three days ago assaulted my stupid head. I gritted my teeth in embarassement. I should forget about that! "Tell him I'm not in a good shape to come down. Hatiran mo nalang ako ng pagkain dito, Bina." After that dawn-incident, I did my best to avoid his way. Minsan na lang ako lumabas at nililibang ko ang sarili sa paggawa ng thesis at pagmememorya ng mga dapat kong memoryahin. I did every ways to keep myself busy. Ayoko siyang kausapin dahil hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin ma-absorb ng utak ko ang ginawa namin nang mga oras na 'yun. It's like we both lose our minds.

I hopelessly confessed, “ang naaalala ko lang ay ‘yong papunta tayo sa dati naming compound tapos tumigil tayo sa gilid ng kalsada para mag-usap… tapos… malabo na ang mga sumunod na nangyari sa isipan ko.” I saw how his lips trembled when he tried to say something. He took a deep breath to recollect himself. “So… you can’t remember the conversation we had earlier?” I blinked several times and held my hand together above my stomach. “Well… I remember you pleading or asking something, but I can’t totally remember the exact words you said.” Marcus nodded several times as he listened to me explain. “Hindi mo rin ba maalala ang mga sinabi mo sa akin?”

Para na siyang malalagutan ng hininga. "Uhm..." Simula nito na animo'y pilit na bumabiyahe sa memory lane nito. Napakamot pa ito sa makapal nitong kilay. At para bang nabingi si Reverie nang tuluyan na itong magsalita. "I think I don't remember her at all." ©MaribelleVerzosa

As he followed the recipe they had perfected over time, he couldn't help but remember the laughter that had once filled this space. But as the minutes passed, the smile on his face began to wane, replaced by a cloud of sadness that descended upon him. The aroma of the food, the sizzling sounds of the pan – everything reminded him of what he had lost. He felt the weight of the empty seat across the table, a reminder that Summer was no longer there to share the meal with him.

“Oo nga pala… bakit hindi ko nakita ang akin dyan? Naging kliyente mo rin naman ako, ‘di ba?” “Hmm? Oh, I kept it in my own drawer,” sagot niya. Napataas ang mga kilay ko. “Bakit?” Nagkibit-balikat lamang siya. “Remembrance.” “Remembrance for what? Para maalala mong naging kriminal for once ang asawa mo?” Umiling siya saka ngumisi. “It’s a reminder to me of how we first met. Of how far we’ve come together. Fascinating, right?”

Kinuha ko rin ang cellphone ko at kinunan siya ng larawan. "Remembrance, baka kasi pag gising mo... Limot mo na ako." ***

Pagkatapos, lumitaw sa isipan niya ang imahe ng araw na iyon. Dahil matagal na siyang pulis, sinanay niya ang kanyang memorya na maging malakas. Marahil ay may makaligtaan siyang maliit na detalye sa eksena, pero nandoon na ang memorya sa isipan niya na parang isang makina o video recorder. Nang inalala niya ang memorya na ito, para bang nag-rewind siya ng isang video at pinanood ito ulit para alalahanin ang maraming detalye ng panahon na iyon.

I remembered every bit of what happened, and everything that I felt. Nag-init ang pisngi ko sa mga alaala. Sinupil ko ang sarili dahil sa kahibangan. Dapat na pagsisihan ko ang ginawa at hindi dapat naghahangad pa ng kasunod dahil lang nakalasap ng sarap. Oh, great, I’m daydreaming when this isn’t the time to reminisce that hot night. I should… I don’t know… maybe I should be cleaning up this mess. Though I don’t know how. It’s not as if this was my first time.

“I heard… you suffered from amnesia. And that you really can’t remember anything.” Anong point ng lalaking ‘to? What’s the point of bringing it up? She remained composed and even smiled at him. “Yes, I do. But I don’t mind. I am completely fine right now.” Muling bumalik sa kanyang isipan ang sinabi ni Regine sa kanya rito last time. “I’m sorry I wasn’t there,” mahinang wika nito. You were always absent.

I was silently gazing out the window, reminiscing about the moments in the past that we spent between me and Logan. I glanced up at the gray skies, the clouds heavy with the promise of rain. The memories flooded in like a tide I couldn't stop. How his presence could light up even in my darkest days, it all felt so vivid as if it had just happened yesterday. Yet, those memories, no matter how beautiful, were now nothing more than fragments of a time I could never return to.
