《His first love.》3
Advertisement
Naka labas ako ng airport dama ang mainit na araw at ang pagdama ng hangin saaking balat. Ako lang ang umuwi at nag stay sina Mom at Dad doon. Ang totoo niyan ay dapat doon naren ako mag p-pasok pero napilit ni Mom si lola na maka-uwi ako.
"Kung ang bangin ay malalim, ganon din ang iniisip ni Cielo. Hi miss. Can i get your number? Are you lo-" hindi ko na siya pinatapos at hinampas agad. "Kidding hahaha, how's Cali, Cielo mi amor ?" Kinuha niya ang maleta ko at inakbayan ako. 'mi amor' nakasanayan na niyang tawagin ako ng ganiyan pero ako ay hindi paren sanay. Ramdam ko paren ang aking puso na parang kakalabog sa bawat galaw na gawin niya.
"Buena supongo." Good, i guess. Maikli kong sagot. Huminto siya at tinignan ako.
"Te quiero" Tinignan ko siya at ngumiti.
"Yo también te amo" He smiled and kissed my forehead.
Naka sakay kami nang sasakyan at nagulat ako nang makita ang kuya niya sa front seat.
"Hi." Maikling pag bati niya pag sakay ko sa likod. Ngumiti ako at umayos ng upo. Nahihiya ako sa kuya niya, parang sobrang seryoso sa buhay- i mean. Like yung aura niya and baka dahil college na siya. Ang alam ko 2nd year na yata niya sa flying school.
"Kuya's here kase naiinip daw siya sa bahay. Wala na tayong choice, wala kasing jowa." Tumango ako tinignan ang kuya niya pero agad ding nabalik kay Eliah dahil nag-salita ulit siya. "Cielo let's eat sa conrad ha." Tumango ako at nabalik ang tinginsa rear mirror na kita ang kuya niya na kinagulat ko dahil nakatingin din siya saaken. Hindi ko alam pero nag tagal din 'yon ng ilang segundo at ako na ang nag bitaw ng tingin.
Kumain kame sa Locavore - S Maison at umuwi na agad dahil tumatawag na si mama. Mom nila Eliah.

"Mama!" Tumakbo ako agad palapit kay mama pagka tapos mag park ni Eliah.
"Dahan-dahan naman, anak. Kamusta ka, anak?" Yinakap ako ni mama at yinakap ko rin siya pabalik. Her warm hug, full of love. Mother's embrace. And her calling me, anak. Sobrang nakaka gaan ng loob. Pakiramdam ko sobrang komportable at ligtas ako kahit ano pa mang mangyare.
"Ok naman po. And, ma. May mga binili ako sa U.S at sure akong magugustuhan mo 'yon." Masigla kong pag k-kwento.
"Hindi na kailangan but i appreciate it. Thank you, anak. Ngayon ay mag pahinga ka muna at mamaya ay noche buena na. Eliah gabayan mo ang anak ko and Eliot halika na chef paki tuloy na ang ginagawa. Sumama pa para mak-" hindi natapos ni mama ang sasabihin dahil lumapit na si Eliot at tinignan naman ako ni Eliah.
"Anak daw. Ako ang tunay na anak, ha!" Tumawa ako hinila na siya. Umakyat na kame at dumiretso sa aking silid. May sarili na akong silid dito at sa guest house nila. Tinuring na nila talaga akong parte ng pamilya.
Pagbukas ng pinto ay pinagmasdan ko muna ang kabuuan ng aking silid. Ganon paren ang ayos at malinis paren. Ilang buwan naren kase noong last na pumunta ako dito at dahil na busy ding mag apply for college. Ibinaba ko ang bag ko sa kama at tinignan si Eliah na ngayon ay kalalabas lang ng walk-in dahil nilagay ang aking maleta.
"Cielo, come here." Binuksan niya ang glass door papuntang balcony at tinignan ako. "May ilang oras pa naman. Mag-usap muna tayo." Ngumiti ako at lumapit sakanya. "How are you, Cielo ko?" Yinakap niya ako at yumakap din ako pabalik.
"Pagod na pagod na, Eliah." Mahina kong sagot at umiyak na. Ilang buwan ko nang tinatago ang sakit at hirap. Sakanya, sakanya ko lang kayang ilabas ang lahat. Iyak lang ako ng iyak hanggang sa pinakawalan na niya ako sakanyang bisig at ngayon ay pinapa tulog para mag pahinga na muna. "I'll come back later, mag pahinga ka muna, okay?" Inayos niya ang comforter at umupo sa gilid ng kama. "You are valid, Cielo. At kailangan mo rin ang pahinga." Matamis na sabi niya habang dahan dahang hinahaplos ang mukha ko.

Wizard's Tower
The humans call me Nemon Fargus. They call me wizard, and [Elementalist] and [Enchanter]. They call me teacher. They call me adventurer. But I don't care. Not anymore.

I've fought against beast waves and dungeon breaks. But now? Now, the one close friend I had left has passed. So, I'm done with their politics and their economics.
