《Line without a hook || Darlentina》Chapter 19
Advertisement
Napag-isipan ng dalawa na igala ang kambal. Sabi ni Narda ay lagi nalang daw kasing nasa bahay ang dalawa at baka nabobored narin ang mga ito. Naiisip nga nya na gusto sya lagi kasama ni Maxine dahil ginagala nga ito sa labas ng condo.
"Yehey! Max and Florence will go out." Masayang sabi ni Regina at pumalakpak.
Masaya naman na pumalakpak rin ang kambal kaya naman mas lalong lumawak ang ngiti ni Regina.
"Regina, I need to wear face mask and cap." Sabi ni Narda.
"Okay!"
Sinuot na ni Narda ang mask at sumbrero atsaka pumunta sa kambal.
"Sino sayo?" Tanong ni Narda.
"I want both of them, pero sila na ang bahala kung kanino sila sasama. Let's try another experiment."
Tumango naman si Narda at nagsimula nang magexplain si Regina.
"Kailangan natin sila yakagin, halimbawa, you will carry Max and then I will try to get her to you. Kapag sumama sya, then, sya yung bubuhatin ko."
"Ahh, sige sige noted. Rock paper scissors muna tayo." Sabi naman ni Narda.
Bato ang pinili ni Narda at papel naman ang pinili ni Regina, kaya naman, Regina will be the one to carry her baby.
"Si Maxine ang ica-carry ko." Binuhat na nya si Maxine at tinry nang pasamahin ni Narda si Maxine sa kanya.
Tinitigan lang sya ni Maxine at pinatong ang ulo nya sa balikat ni Regina. Tinawanan naman sya ni Regina.
"We will be together, Florence." Sabi ni Narda at binuhat na ang bata.
Pagkabuhat ni Narda kay Florence ay sumakay na sila ng kotse ni Regina.
"Bae, I will be the driver for today. You need to be in the back seat." Sabi ni Narda.
Hindi naman mapigilan ni Regina ang mapangiti, rinig na rinig nya kase ang tinawag sa kanya ni Narda.
"Where are we going ba?" Tanong ni Regina after makarecover.
"Saan ba gusto mo? Mall?"
"Hmm, pwede naman. Dalhin natin sila kung saan sila pwedeng maglaro." Sabi ni Regina.
"Yun nga din plano ko, inunahan mo naman ako."

Regina laughed. "It's your fault, nagpahuli ka pa kasi, naunahan ka tuloy."
And then it hits Narda. Alam nyang hindi naman tungkol dun ang sinabi ni Regina pero she can't help but think about it. Tama nga naman si Regina, kung hindi sya nagpahuli huli, hindi sya mauunahan.
Pero lagi nyang iniisip na past is past. What happened in the past, remains in the past.
Tinawanan nalang ni Narda ang sinabi ni Regina at nagpatugtog.
"Anong magandang tugtog?" Tanong ni Narda.
"Bababababa!" Biglang hiyaw ni Florence.
"Somewhere only we know daw sabi ni Florence." Sabi naman ni Regina habang natawa.
"Uy maganda rin yun, sige patugtog natin."
I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete
Regina sang and Narda felt like she's getting dejavu. Naalala nya nanaman kasi yung kinantahan ni Regina si Brian.
Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm gettin' old, and I need something to rely on
So, tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm gettin' tired, and I need somewhere to begin
She just let Regina sing.
I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?
Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm gettin' old, and I need something to rely on
So, tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm gettin' tired, and I need somewhere to begin
Nadadala na ng kanta si Narda kaya naman ay nakisabay na sya sa kanta ni Regina.
And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So, why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know
Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old, and I need something to rely on
So, tell me when you're gonna let me in

So, why don't we go?
So, why don't we go?
And in this part, naisipan ni Narda na magsecond voice kay Regina.
Ooh, hey, hey
Oh-oh-oh
And they did it successfully.
This could be the end of everything
So, why don't we go somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know
Somewhere only we know
They finished the song with a satisfied smile on their faces. Paglingon ni Regina sa gilid nya ay tulog na ang kambal, napatawa naman sya.
"We're so good at singing to the point that Maxine and Florence are now sleeping." Natatawang sabi ni Regina.
Napatingin naman si Narda sa kambal at napangiti. "Ang cute talaga nila mana sa mommy nila."
"Syempre." Nakasmirk na sabi ni Regina.
"Check your gallery sa phone mo."
Pagbukas ni Regina ng gallery nya ay nakita nga ang mukha nyang tulog na tulog.
"Narda! When did you took this?"
"Kaninang madaling araw, sarap tulog mo eh." Tawang tawang sabi ni Narda.
"You're so naughty talaga." Sabi ni Regina at umirap.
Ilang minuto pa at sila ay nakarating na sa mall. Binuhat nalang nila ang kambal kahit na sila ay tulog.
Hinawakan ni Regina ang kamay ni Narda at napatingin sya rito.
Suot parin nya yung bracelet. Sabi ni Narda sa kanyang isip at napangiti. Akala nya kasi ay after confession, hindi na nya muling isusuot yon.
"Should we buy clothes for them?" Tanong ni Narda.
"Yeah, maybe later? Kapag gising na sila." Sagot naman ni Regina.
"Ano nang gagawin muna natin?"
"Tambay muna tayo, I think I want coffee." Sabi ni Regina.
"Ako rin, tara punta muna tayo mcdo. Dun ko gusto magkape."
"Okay." Sabi ni Regina at agad silang pumunta ng mcdo.
Bet kasi ni Narda ang lasa ng kape sa mcdo kaya dun nya naisipang yayain si Regina.
"Coffee lang talaga or Coffee float?"
"Coffee float, bae." Sagot naman ni Narda.
Bigla nanamang namula si Regina sa tinawag sa kanya ni Narda. Hindi naman ito napansin ni Narda dahil tumalikod ito agad para umorder.
Pinindot na nya sa screen ang order nilang dalawa.
"You want burger ba or fries?"
"Sige, order mo ako ng burger."
Tumango naman si Regina at inorder na nga ang burger.
Habang naghihintay sila ng order nila ay magkahawak parin sila ng kamay.
Tumingin si Narda kay Regina at tumingin rin si Regina kay Narda. The sparkle on Narda's eyes didn't change, that's the first thing that Regina noticed.
"Your-" Hindi na natapos ang sasabihin ni Regina nang tawagin na ang order nila.
"Thank you." Sabay nilang sabi nang ibigay sa kanila ang order.
"I'm so hungry, we should just drink this somewhere private." Sabi ni Regina at gumora na.
May nakita silang bench at doon na sila umupo, nakayuko naman si Narda habang umiinom, nakasuot parin sya ng sumbrero.
Nang makaramdam sya ng init ay dun na nya napagdesisyunan na hubarin ang mask at sumbrero.
"Bahala na kung kumalat sa social media na nandito ako, basta, wala akong ginagawang masama." Sabi nya at hinubad na ang sumbrero at mask nya.
"Wow! Pogi." Sabi ni Regina.
"Pogi!" Paggaya naman ni Florence kay Regina kaya napatawa silang dalawa.
"I love you na, Florence." Sabi ni Narda at hinalikan ang ulo nito.
Si Maxine naman ay tahimik lang na nakatingin sa kanilang tatlo.
"Maxine." Malambing na tawag ni Narda at napangiti ito.
"Ang daya! Ngumingiti agad sila sayo." Nakapout na sabi ni Regina.
"Ang pogi ko talaga."
"Wait, bigla yata humangin ng malakas." Pabirong sabi ni Regina.
"Sus, crush mo lang ako eh." Nakangiting sabi ni Narda.
"Baka ikaw may crush sakin." Nakataas na kilay na tanong ni Regina.
"Oo, since birth, ano may angal ka?"
Sasagot na sana si Regina pero biglang umirit si Maxine. Napatakip naman ng tenga si Regina habang si Narda ay tawa ng tawa.
"Ingay mo daw kasi."
Regina rolled her eyes. "Whatever!"
