"Aren't you coming to the funeral?" tanong ni Mommy mula sa labas ng kuwarto ko. Nagtalukbong ako ng kumot at umiling kahit hindi naman niya ako nakikita.
"Just go!"
Ilang segundo ang lumipas bago ko muling narinig ang boses ni Mommy. "This is the last time you'll be seeing Rhaven before we leave."
Kahit naman pumunta ako roon, wala naman akong maitutulong. Rhaven said so himself. He doesn't need me to comfort him. I can't believe I'd hear that from him. Mayamaya ay umalis ma rin si Mommy nang hindi ako sumagot.
Tiningnan ko 'yong phone ko. Wala ni isang text galing kay Rhaven. And it's been two weeks. I heard they held the funeral for about nine days.
Hindi ko nagawang dalawin si Tita at Tito dahil inaasikaso rin namin ni Mommy 'yong mga papeles. We're leaving four days from now. No
