______________________Chapter 40
Raphael Pov
"Umayos kang bakla ka kung hindi matatamaan ka nitong palad ko!" Naghahalo ang nginig at galit ang tono ng kaibigan ni Dareen na si Clemente.
Dumating si Clemente dito na naka-pantulog niya lang at naka-tsinelas lang din. Nandito ako nang magising si Dareen.I was holding his hand while waiting for him to wake up. But when he is awake, he no longer remembers me. He is finding Clemente. That's why I called Clemente here.
Dareen just stares at me blankly when he wakes up. He didn't ask my name. He just pleaded to see his friend. I was the one who asked him if he knew me, and he shook his head. That response is enough for my heart to sting to its core.
Pakiramdam ko pinukpok ang dibdib ko ng martilyo nang umiling sa akin si Dareen. I tried to ask him some questions and even tried a trick question just to see if he was only pranking me, but no. It was all damn true.
I called the doctor to check on him and to see if there was something really wrong with his brain. And his doctor told me that he was having temporary selective amnesia due to the severe head concussion he received from the accident. The doctor said that he could gain his memory back after 24 hours, but it's already been 24 hours and there's no sign that he has regained his memory.
"Bwesit kang bruha ka! Anong akala mo sa akin? Nag-iinarte dito? Gosh! Not my type." Dareen exclaimed.
Lumingon sa akin si Clemente na may awa sa mata niya. He squeezed his eyes shut and took a deep sighed before turning his head back to Dareen.
Napahawak si Dareen sa ulo niya na may bandage. Then his hands moved down to his face, to his neck, and then to his lower body.
"Shemz! Bakla pumangit na ba ako? Kasalan talaga ito ni Geoffrey at nang higad niyang kaibigan! Arrghh!" Dareen stamped his feet and his hand went in ball.
"B-Baks... matagal nang--"
I immediately went to Clemente and hold his left shoulder to stop him. Lumingon siya sa akin na may pagtatanong sa mata. Kinuha niya ang kamay ko sa balikat niya at padabog na tumayo. Hindi ko inaasahan na hihilahin niya ako papalayo doon sa kama ni Dareen.
"Raphael!" pabulong niyang sigaw sa akin. "Nakita mo ba? Narinig mo ba si Dareen? Raphael hindi ko alam kung ano ang nangyayari sa utak ng kaibigan ko pero ang huling naaalala niya ay ang gabing sinugod niya ang ex niya! Obviously, akala n'yan naaksidente siya pauwi galing doon sa resort! Raphael wala ka sa isip ng kaibigan ko! Hindi ka niya nakikilala. Hindi niya maalala ang mga panahon na nasa puder mo siya. Hindi ka niya maalala Raphael!"
I sighed.
"I know. I know that."
"At ayos lang sayo?" Naiinis niyang tanong sa akin.
Napahasa ako sa ngipin ko.
"Of course, I'm not fucking okay with it. It is hard for me. It is hard for me to see him like this. I'm so fucking hurt seeing him that he doesn't remember any of the moments we spent together. I'm fucking hurt knowing that I was the only one who remembered our time together. Jesus Christ! I'm in excruciating pain right now. But what can I do? If we insist on him remembering some things, his amnesia will worsen. His head will ache. He would lose his consciousness again. He will be in pain."
