CHAPTER FIRTY-TWO
I have a lot of things to clarify. Ang daming mga bagay na hindi ko pa alam. One of these days, I have to face Satan’s tumor. I have to face Sioux Kyros Centauri.
How come? Things have been confusing for me. Paanong nangyari iyon? If that was right, then, it was my fault that I was gullible enough to fall for his temptation. Damn it.
I can’t really read Centauri’s mind.
Ilang araw pa akong nanatili sa hospital bago ako na-discharge. Madalas dumalaw si Lolay. She ran for my errands. I was also monitored by Gemma. Ilang beses tumawag si Justise sa facetime. She even wanted to go back to the country, hindi ko lang siya hinayaan.
“Wilcam bak, anak.” saad ni Manang matapos akong yakapin. Hinalikan niya ang pisngi ko. Naghanda siya ng fruitful lunch para sa akin.
For the first time in my life, I was thankful I was surr
CHAPTER FIFTY-THREE I was still crying when I arrived in the hospital. Namamaga na iyong mata ko at halos hindi na ako makahinga. Kumuha ako ng suporta sa waiting room seat para hindi ako mabuwal. I was asked many questions by the personnel and I answered them as much as I can. Kahit wala ako sa sarili. Hindi ko alam kung dapat ko bang tawagan si Dad o hindi. I ended up calling his number a few times, puro rings lang iyon. Napailing ako. Nanginginig akong tumawag sa landline sa bahay. Nobody answered the phone. “Fuck, fuck!” I whispered. They weren’t answering my calls. Tumingin ako sa paligid. My anxiety was getting worse. “Miss! Miss!” I called a nurse. Tumigil siya at humarap sa akin. She smiled. “Yes, ma’am? Do you need assistance po?” magalang niyang tanong. Huminga ako nang malalim. “Can y
CHAPTER FIFTY-FOUR I woke up in an empty room the next day. I don’t know but I always wake up in a different room. Nakasuot ako ng hospital gown. Mayroon ding IV fluid na nakakabit sa kamay ko. I was definitely confined in a hospital. I could remember every detail. Huminga ako nang malalim. I felt the emptiness of the room. This is what I wanted. Deserve ko namang magdusa ng mag-isa. Ayokong tawagan si Daddy. Hindi ko alam ang magiging reaksiyon niya kapag nalaman niya ang ginawa ko. He would resent me for my choices. Ilang beses kong sinubukang bumangon bago ko nagawa. Hindi ko na naramdaman iyong sakit tiyan ko kagabi. It was too intense and too painful to endure. I grabbed a piece of paper in the table. May neat handwriting na nakasulat doon. Hi Reign,
Ilang araw akong nagtagal sa hospital. Araw - araw din akong binisita ni Gertrude Immaculate na Gemma for short. Binisita niya rin si Manang, and she was still in coma after the cardiac arrest. I received calls from Rainbow pero hindi kay Daddy. I was supposed to fly to Paris next week. Pero hanggang ngayon, hindi ko alam kung matutuloy pa ako. Hangga’t mayroong nasa sinapupunan ko, hindi ako makakaalis ng bansa. Nakaramdam na naman ako ng galit. Pero mas nangibabaw ang kagustuhan kong sumuka. Hindi na ako nakaabot sa bowl, sa floor pa lang, sumuka na ako. I felt my whole body weakened. I could not even move myself to stand. My energy was drained. “Reign?” It was Gemma. “Reign? Reign! What are you doing there? Are you okay?!” mabilis niya akong dinaluhan. “The little devil is winning.” I told her weakly.
CHAPTER FIFTY-SIX Jianyu --- the Chinese guy and Sioux Kyros Centauri’s colleague was standing in the edge of big yacht looking at me. Hindi lang siya nag-iisa. There are more than ten men in there and they look equally dangerous as Centauri. I know they are also capable with dealing of illegal stuffs. Their presence is enough to make me somewhat nervous. Still, I held my head high. Hindi ako nagpatinag sa intimidating look nila. I already perfected my defense mechanism. Hindi ko alam kung anong kailangan nila sa akin. I just received an invitation from them. Unang tingin ko sa invitation, I knew it was them. They were behind it. May crest iyon ng same tattoo ni Sioux. It still triggers me every time I see that, I was reminded of what happened before. It doesn’t smell fancy. The paper reminded me the smell of blood, it made me shiver. Sioux was supposed to be with them, but h
CHAPTER FIFTY-SEVEN Para akong binuhusan nang malamig na tubig. Nanlalamig ang buong katawan ko. I hated the man who took my virginity when I was eighteen, but the real villain was just lurking around the corner. Almost half of my life was a lie. From believing my Dad didn’t care for me and then, what happened that night. Oh my God. Sky. He was worse than I thought. How could he do that to me? I asked Sky. I asked him if the guy who raped me knew about it, he said yes. Pinaniwalaan ko siya. I believed him even if I should not. Mas lalo akong nakaramdam ng galit para kay Sky. He was the real villain all along. If Sioux didn’t know he was raping me that night, does that mean that my anger, the trauma and everything I felt were invalid? I was crying again. The old wound resurfaced and it is giving me another deep cut. I hailed a cab to go home. Balik hatid - sundo ako ng driver
CHAPTER FIFTY-EIGHTThings would get really ugly for me. Alam kong mas lalo nila akong ididiin sa bagay na iyon. Hindi ko iyon itinuturing na baho ko. I totally accepted it. Hindi lang ako proud sa ilang desisyon ko sa buhay.Sa Instagram nga, we only share for the happy memories, but we don’t let people see the bad ones. And it’s fine. We have to be careful on whom we share the deepest and darkest phase of our lives. Argh, why the hell do I sound angelic all of a sudden?I was still thinking about Sioux. I want him out of the prison. He’s still in the custody of NBI. He’s so epal. He’s so bobo. Pinangunahan niya ako sa desisyon ko. He’s not really thinking. I told the Chinese guy that I want him out. Mayabang lang niyang tinanong kung kailan ko gustong lumabas si Centauri.I was right. My vision was right. Things are not going to be in favor of me
CHAPTER FIFTY-NINE I was scared. I could feel my knees trembling. And my heart, they are so loud inside my chest. It was beating tremendously fast. Dumadagdag pa iyong anxiety at pangamba ko. Sioux didn’t look at me but he intertwined our hands as if he could sense the raging storm causing turmoil in my body. Wala siyang sinabi, basta niyang hinawakan nang mahigpit ang kamay ko habang papasok kami ng mansyon ni Daddy. It was an assurance everything is going to be fine. Or was it assurance that he will stay with me after what I’m going to tell him? Sinalubong ako ni Manang sa main door. Malaki ang ngisi niya sa aming dalawa pero hindi ko masuklian ang ngiting iyon. Natatakot ako sa hindi pa nangyayari. “Reign, anak! Hindi ka man lang nagpasabi, mayroong bisitang darating.” masaya niyang wika. She looked at our intertwined hands, mas lalong lumawak ang ngiti niya.  
CHAPTER SIXTY Isang buwan… It’s almost one month since I came here. Most of my mornings, I spent it walking on the dalampasigan. Minsan kasama ko si Manang, madalas ako lang mag-isa. Visible na ang baby bump ko. There is really a growing seed inside me. I just let it be, hindi ko na rin naman kaya ang sakit kapag pinilit ko pang tanggalin sa sinapupunan ko. “Hoy, taya ka!” I heard children talking in the background. The kids are running around the area. Masaya silang nagtatawanan at naglalaro sa dalampasigan. Madalas nakatingin lang ako sa kanila. I didn’t enjoy my childhood as much as theirs. Kids of my age don’t like to play with me and I’m always in my room practicing violin. I was smiling at the scenario. Subconsciously, I was caressing my tummy softly. Agad akong napabitaw nang mapagtanto ko ang ginawa ko.

SPECIAL CHAPTER “B-babe,” The moment I opened my eyes, Sioux was staring at me worriedly. He was sitting on the edge of the bed, and grabbed a glass of water in the bedside table. Sioux helped me up as I drank the water. Pawisan ako nang malamig. It wasn’t because of the air-conditioned room, but with the nightmare I had. Muli akong napaiyak sa pagbaha ng alaala. Fresh pa iyon sa utak ko. Dinaluhan ako ni Sioux. “Babe, what happened? I am worried.” He kissed my forehead, as his arms encircled my body. I just stayed in that position, still crying. Hindi ako makapag-isip ng tama. “It’s just a bad dream, I am here, alright.” He kept on caressing my hair while whispering sweet thoughts. They didn’t help. It made me question my current situation. Was this the dream and what I had earlier was my reality? I cried even harder. I love Sioux. I love my babies ---
SPECIAL CHAPTER As soon as my eyes adjusted to the light, I kept my eyes opened, examining the unfamiliar room. It was all-white. Agad akong nagtaka. Shaking my head, it has been years since I found myself in an unknown vicinity. Traumatic pa ang pangyayaring iyon ng buhay ko, it was weird recalling it now. “Sioux,” I called out my husband’s name. Where the fuck is he in the early morning? Realization hit me, my kids need to be taken care of. Classes are going to start and here I am lying in bed. Sometimes, I slept late and woke up late in the morning. Minsan hindi ko naaabutan ang mga bata sa pagpasok. There were times I would think low of myself as a mother. Pakiramdam ko kulang ang efforts ko para matugunan ang pangangailangan nila, not on the materialistic side. Mostly, the things like preparing their breakfasts and lunch to take in school. Kahit ang simpleng paggising nang maaga, hindi ko maga
SPECIAL CHAPTER “Mamá, I want itlog na pula. I tried it with ate Badiday last time!” Archi answered. I don’t know what that is, but I nodded anyway. “Mamá, why is your bed wet? Did Dada pee on the bed?” my three year old son --- Sion asked. He was jumping up and down in our bed. My mouth parted at what he said. Sion sat and inspected the bed sheet. “Oh, lotion, Mamá?” Inilapit niya sa kanyang ilong ang nahawakan. “But it doesn’t smell like lotion!” “No! Come here, baby. Come here!” nagpapanic ako. They are too brilliant and information seekers. Gosh. Dinampot ko si Sion palayo roon habang naka-hug pa rin sa akin si Rigil. Inaantok pa yata ang bunso ko. His eyes were asking me. “Can I pee in my bed too, Mamá? I am lazy to get up when I woke up late at night.” “Oh, no, baby. You have to pee on the toilet and not on the bed. Dada did
SPECIAL CHAPTER “Good morning, babe.” I smiled as soon as I heard Sioux’s husky voice. He hugged me closer. Ang bango ng asawa ko sa umaga. Asawa ko. Mine. Just mine. “Did you have a good night sleep?” Isiniksik ko ang aking mukha sa leeg niya at tumango. I bit his lower neck marking him as mine. Madalas ko iyong ginagawa sa umaga. I also planted kisses on his jaw. Sioux groaned, in less than a second, he was on top of me now. Naglapat ang mga labi namin sa isang masuyong halik. Masuyo? No, it’s aggressive and wanting more. Mapaghanap at mukhang gustong makaisa. A chuckle escaped my lips as he sought for more. Sioux is Sioux. Hindi pa man kami, malandi na siya. To think of it, we never really dated and became official as a couple, what we had were casual dates. Singapore and Greece. That’s his definition of casual. I was being dragged in different countries. He didn’t ask me
EPILOGUE Sioux Kyros 'The Fucking' Centauri Came the wedding… seeing the ever gorgeous woman to walk in the aisle. I thought she would still say no. But she didn’t. She’s my dream. I am damn happy. The happiest criminal ever alive. “Soks! Soks!” Badiday called. I payed her attention. She has that wide eyes staring back at me full of wonder. “Sasama pa baga ako sa’yo sa loob sa pag-anak ni ate Barbie?” Oh, shit. I forgot the kid’s here with me. “No. Hindi. You stay here. Wait mo si Tapulok at si Lapu - lapu. Pupunta sila rito.” I told her and kissed her forehead. She sat on the waiting chair. Fast and wide steps, I followed her to the delivery room. “Soks!” Badiday called me again. I turned around to see her, she gave me a thumbs up. I returned it with a smile. The bag of baby supplies is with her.
