Unbearable

PROLOGUE

The sky above is glittering. A million of stars make the sky alive from the darkness. How I wish it could be like this every night.

"I'm wondering. Why is life so cruel sometimes?"

I checked my phone and it's already midnight. Bumangon na ako dahil lumalamig na ang gabi. Baka magkasipon pa ako kapag nagbabad ako dito. Pinaka ayoko pa naman ay iyong sinisipon at inuubo ako. I'm here at the hill top of our subdivision, nage emote. I can say that this place is my haven lalo na kapag marami akong iniisip o kapag maraming problema.

Napaka tahimik at payapa ng lugar. Minsan nga parang gusto ko nang magpatayo ng mini glass house dito para hindi laging sa labas ng kotse ako nakahiga. Ang ganda ganda ng view dito kahit sa umaga. Sayang nga lang dahil may nagmamay-ari na ng lupang ito. Kainis naman, sayang lang yung balak ko dito.

I got on my car and drive my way home. To my surprise the light of the whole house are still on. Why naman di pa sila tulog, yari na naman ako neto eh. Tinabi ko na lang sa harap ng gate ang kotse ko. Nakakatamad ipasok eh ilalabas ko lang din naman bukas kaya dyan na yan. I walked silently towards our main door. Pinakiramdaman ko muna ang loob kung may nagiingay pa pero ni kaluskos wala.

I smile confidently and open the door. What the heck!!

"Mommy naman para kang ewan."

She was sitting at the living room while sipping from her mug. Para syang kakain ng buhay nang balingan niya ako ng tingin. Baka puro dugo dugo na dito sa sala sa sobrang talim ng tingin niya sakin.

"Ako pa ngayon ang ewan. Kung sabunutan kaya kita, gabing gabi na ngayon ka pa lang umuwi. Grabe naman Wyrene anong oras na. Umakyat ka na nga lang jusko nakakagigil ka talagang bata ka."

Dali-dali akong umakyat sa kwarto dahil baka magbago pa isip ni mommy at talagang sabunutan na niya ako. I can't help but to smile whenever mom is like that. For me that's the greatest things I would ever want all my life. Having a complete and happy family is so much blessing. Growing up is the bestest part of my life because I have my parents who love and support me to whatever I do.

I jump on the bed as soon as I got on my room. I'm too lazy to get my clothes change. Pakiramdam ko pagod na pagod ako kahit wala naman akong masyadong ginawa ngayon araw, just my daily routine.

My eyes are weary when my phone suddenly rings. I don't know who the caller is, basta ko

nalang itong sinagot.

"Wy."

"Hello, who's this?"

"I miss you."

I feel a loud thud of my heart. Yung antok ko biglang nawala, kung kanina ay papasara na ang mga talukap nung mata ko ngayon ay sobrang mulat na. I can't contain my happiness when I hear his voice.

“Calli, oh my ghad.”

I heard him giggle over the phone. Shocks ilang taon na ba nung lasta kaming nagkita. I can't believe it.

“Hahaha. Wyrene is not Wyrene without being so loud. Hindi mo man lang ba sasagutin ang I miss you ko”

“Gosh I can’t still believe that the mighty Calirrhoe just call me in the past midnight.”

“The heck with the mighty thing. Your being a weirdo again Wy.”

I can imagine his disgusting face already. Oh Calirrhoe, you don’t even change a bit. Hahaha

“I miss you too. So when did you arrive.”

“Silly. Let’s talk again tomorrow, its past midnight already. I just call to say that I’m back. Go to sleep Wy.”

“Okay okay. You rest too. I know you’re tired. I miss you Cali."
