Chapter 29: Bipolar Kim

Pretend

Kim couldn't go to sleep.........natatakot siyang pag nagising siya....ay hindi na totoo ang lahat........

She was scared of the revelations..........she was overwhelmed.......teka.....teka........ano na naman ang drama mo?........akala ko ba okay na?........ okay naman ah!!........eh bakit nagiinarte ka na naman!!

Kim took a deep breath....she stared to the angel beside her.........diba dapat masaya na siya.......diba dapat wala na siyang dapat ipangamba...........eh ano ba kasi ang problema?........hindi ko alam......ang gulo mo.......as in!!....

Kim moved slowly away from Gerald.....bumangon siya at nagbihis.....Kinumutan niya si Gerald....bago niya kinuha ang scrapbook at lumabas ng kwarto.....

Paglabas niya....nakita niya sina Kuya Vhong...Joaqui at Bam sa living room....na nagpapakitaan ng mga text nito......

"Kuya Vhong......Kuya Vhong....tignan mo ito oh.........mas maganda.......mas bagay kay Kim.........."....Joaqui read the text outloud...."I’m just like your kite…I may go far…be distant… but there will always be a string to connect us… a string you are holding. So if you let go… tandaan mo… ikaw ang bumitaw… hindi ako.............ohaa.....ohaaa....ganda no!! "...pagyayabang nito....

"SIra........mas bagay ito kay Kim....".....hirit ni Bam........" Why do you always look for someone perfect when what you really need is someone real?
Why do you take for granted someone who cares a lot for you
Why do you fool around when you know someone gets hurt?
The answer is simple: ’cause you love and value yourself more than anyone else that you fail to value those who love you more than themselves ............oh see......swak na swak!!"......

Bigla itong binatukan ni Kuya Vhong...."EH gago ka pala eh.............ginawa mo namang selfish si Kim.....hindi yan bagay kay Kim......heto ang bagay sa kanya.....".....Kuya Vhong cleared his throat....."Minsan may bumatok sa’kin sabay sabi, “Matauhan ka nga! Hindi ka n’ya mahal at ‘di na mamahalin pa!” Nasabi ko na lang…”So, dapat talaga may batok?!”........ang ganda no!!.".nakangiting sabi ni kuya Vhong.....

"Eh kuya......bakit ganon.......hindi na ba love ni Gerald si Kim........mali yata yan.......hindi bagay!!".....hirit ni Bam.....

"Teka ito.......Sadness is not the measure of grief…it’s the gauge of dissatisfaction........"...basa ni Joaqui......

Biglang natahimik ang tatlo........nakakunot noo ang lahat......

"Ano daw?"....tanong ni Bam....

"Di ko rin naintindihan!"....sabi ni Kuya Vhong.....

"Wala ba tayong dictionary?"......kakamot-kamot ng ulo si Joaqui.....

"sino ba ang nagpadala sa iyo niyan?....ang lalim ah!!".....tanong ni Bam...

IIling-iling si Kim........habang lumalabas ng bahay.............Diyos ko......galit ba kayo sa akin.......bakit pinabayaan niyo ako sa mga ganitong klaseng tao!........himutok niya......

She climb up on the rooftop.....it's been a long time.......bago ulit siya nakaakyat doon........but she misses the place...... Ito lang ang lugar na kumupkop sa kanya nung umiiyak siya......

Pagakyat niya.....napansin niya ang mga thumbtacks na nilagay ng kuya niya sa paborito niyang pwesto.......she smiled......"Ang kuya talaga.......mahal na mahal ako!!"..... she clean the spot before sitting on it.......

She open the scrapbook.....tumambad sa kanya ang poem......

I love you
By me

Another day had just past….. 
Another hour had just last…
I’ve waited since from the start….
And…I’m still waiting in my heart….

I asked myself why I let it fade….
The hopes of my mind for it let me made….
A decision that I truly hate….
To gave up the one who’s my true fate….

But who am I to ask…..
If he can only give what he was task….
Under the moonlight I wish from the musk…
For him to love me…not just because I ask…

Three words may not be much…..
But my heart was longing for to be touch…
Three words that I wanted to catch…
For him….it was too much……..

Now that I made up my mind…..
For the two of us is lost…and hard to find…
The true love that wasn’t supposed to end…..was gone unkind…
For my heart was still longing for the words that was not bind….

It hurts to see you gone…..
It bleeds my heart to see you none……
But it hurts more to see you here….
If you’re heart wasn’t ready to say………”I Love You”…. in my ears……

I love you Gerald with all my heart….
My soul ….my life…was broken the day you are gone….

But I’d rather see my self crushed…..
Than knowing….you don’t love me….from the very start…..

“I Love you”…is all I wanted to hear….
Even up to know……words haven’t touched my ears…

I let you go…but remember this…
My heart will always loving you near…..
I love you Gerald…and that’s a fact…
I won’t get tired to scream it from my heart……..

AT ..Sa ilalim ng poem…napansin niya ang singsing……………

She touched the ring..........napabuntong hininga siya.....The ring were supposed to represent an undying love......kaya nga ito bilog .....kasi wala itong katapusan.......wala rin namang corner.......pero bakit parang mas maraming namamatayan ng love.......kesa sa mga hindi............ bakit?......namatay ba ang love mo kay Gerald?..............wala akong sinasabing ganyan!!...eh bakit mega-drama ka diyan......pati shape ng singsing.....pinapansin mo?.........

She noticed a small folded paper na nakaipit sa may itaas ng libro........she didn't noticed it earlier....dahil maliit lang ito...... she open it....it was a letter from Gerald.....

"My baby Kim,

I regret those days that I wasn't able to say that I love you.....
I was so blinded with the fact that you needed my assurance......
Now that I was given another chance to say those words to you.......
I will never forget to say I love you......and I meant it too......

I love you Kimberly chiu!

love, Gerald"......

Kim was teary eyed..........ano ka ba!! naiinis na talaga siya sa sarili niya.......ano pa ba ang gusto mo......pwede ba.......tama na yung puro ikaw na lang....intindihin mo naman si Gerald....

Teka nga.......teka nga.......... ano ba kasi talaga ang drama mo?...........ayan na nga oh........bumabaha na ng "I LOVE YOU".........eh ano pa ba ang problema.....

Yun na nga ang problema eh.........natatakot ako na baka hindi ko mapantayan ang pagmamahal niya.........What if....my love for him is not enough.........Grabe day!!.....ang drama mo?.....hindi pa ba sapat yung ginawa ka ng kissing booth...........ay!! hindi ka lang pala kissing booth ngayon...... baby booth ka na rin!....... baby booth?...... oh diba........anytime pwede ka na ulit mabuntis by Gerald's baby!!.......

Nanlaki ang mata ni Kim.......... baby?........Gerald's baby?..........ipinilig niya ang ulo.....pwede ba.....wag mong pasukan ng kung ano-ano ang utak ko.........dami ko na ngang iniisip......... Aba't....teka rin po........utak niyo rin po ako......kayo po ang nagiisip!!.........napatigil si Kim.........Sabi ko nga!!...

Grabe Kim....Bipolar ka na yata............bakit kinakalaban mo ang sarili mong isip........... naguguluhan na talaga siya........ Ng biglang nagring ang phone niya..... si Reg.....

"Kim?....are you available?"......tanong nito....

Napakunot noo si Kim...."Bakit?".....

"kasi....We're here in the hospital right now....... ito kasing kaibigan mo.....nadehydrate......kaya naka I.V. infusion siya ngayon!! ".....

"What?"....napatayo bigla si Kim...at nagmamadaling bumaba ng rooftop......."Hintayin mo ako......anong hospital ba yan?.....I'm coming!"....

"Nasa makati Med kami....... kim.....please help.......hindi ko na alam ang gagawin ko!"....nagpapanick na ito.....

"SSsshhh....wag ka ngang ganyan......atleast nasa ospital na kayo.....he will be fine.... pupunta na ako!!"......she said....

Pumasok siya sa bahay para magpaalam kay Kuya vhong.........Nadatnan niyang malalim ang iniisip ng tatlo........

"Kuya...diba ang meaning ng grief.....eh parang naghihirap.......so sabi ....Sadness is not the measure of grief.......parang hindi daw pwedeng sukatin ng lungkot ang paghihirap?.......yun ba yun?".....Bam said..

"Ewan ko.......sumasakit na ang ulo ko..........eh ano ba yung gauge...........diba gamit yon ng mga scientist?"....tanong ni kuya vhong...

Samantalang si Joaqui...ay hinihilot ang ulo nito......na para bang hirap na hirap sa iniisip nito......."dissatisfaction?"...bulong nito.....

Napatingin si Kim sa langit........."Bakit po?"......bulong niya...... ng mapansin siya ni Kuya Vhong.....

"Hoy....saan ka nanggaling?....diba nasa kwarto ka?"....tanong nito....

"Kuya...alis ako....may emergency!....balik ako kaagad!!".......she said....at tumalikod na!! Her phone rang again.....si Reg ulit......

"hoy....san ka pupunta?"......tawag dito ni Kuya vhong.....pero hindi na ito nasagot ni Kim...dahil nagmamadali ng umalis............
