Chapter Ten

Remember

I remember it now. How I have loved this woman. I married her because I love her and decided to have a family together, and had our son as the fruit of our love. How could I forget?

"I love you, Yessa..." I reassured her while I'm making love to my wife again...

"I'm sorry..." I apologized and kissed her forehand before my lips went back to kiss her lips again and again...

"Leo..." She moaned my name. And it was like music to my ears...

And then slowly I pushed myself making my hips thrust towards her... "Ah!" we both moaned when our bodies became one once again...

At ngayon ko lang ko lang naalala ang lahat nang ito. What really took me long to remember the woman I love?

"I'm hungry..." Yessa said while we're cuddled in bed after making love.

Maaga pa at mag-l-lunch pa nga lang. Or it's a little bit later past lunch. Hindi lang kami kinatok ng kasambahay kanina para tawagin na mananghalian. "We should head downstairs to eat. I'm sure may naluto naman sina Manang." I told her.

Nag-angat naman siya ng tingin sa akin at tumango pagkatapos ay ngumiti rin siya sa 'kin. Napangiti na lang din ako kay Yessa. And then we went off the bed and wore our clothes back to go downstairs to eat.

And then we both had our lunch in the dining room. Our house helpers also served us. And I thanked them. Ngumiti lang naman sila sa akin. And I think that they're happy na okay na kami ngayon ni Yessa. Dahil kanina ay nahalata rin siguro nila na medyo may konting napagtalunan kami nang dumating kami rito sa bahay kaninang umaga. We met my heart donor's parents in the morning and we also had light breakfast with them like coffee and other food that we had at the cafe where we met the old couple. It was the only time that they were free to meet us dahil may pupuntahan pa rin daw sila pagkatapos lang nilang nakipagkita sa amin kaninang umaga.

At gusto ko lang din silang makita para makapagpasalamat ako sa puso ng anak nila na binigay sa akin, and to also apologize to them about Bea...

"Thank you, Manang." I thanked her after they put the food in front of me and Yessa on the table.

Ngumiti rin naman sa akin si Manang. "You're welcome, Sir."

Kung hindi ako nagkakamali, when Yessa and I got married she came with us to this house. Siya pa ang yaya ni Yessa noon at sumama siya nang mag-asawa na ang alaga niya. And now she takes care of our house for us. Kinuhanan naman namin ng isa pang yaya si Leon dahil medyo may edad na rin ang dating yaya ni Yessa. At baka hindi na rin nito maalagaan pa ang anak namin ni Yessa na sobrang likot din minsan na bata.

Pagkatapos naming mananghalian ay nagpahinga lang din muli kami ni Yessa sa kwarto namin. We didn't have work yet since I just recovered from my amnesia. And Yessa's taking care of me now. Kaya hindi rin muna siya pumapasok sa hospital.

"Were you avoiding me at the hospital? I didn't see you there..." I said when I remembered.

We're working in the same hospital. But then I haven't seen her there. Noon ko pa lang siya nakita noong nakita ko rin doon ang anak namin si Leon nang araw na 'yon na magbalik ang alaala ko at naalala ko na rin siya.

Yessa looked at me. Pagkatapos ay unti-unti siyang tumango. "Yes, I was trying to hide away from you... I was afraid na mas lumala pa ang condition mo if you see me..."

At habang nakatingin na ako ngayon sa asawa ko ay muli kong naalala ang guilt ko sa mga nangyari sa amin. We were on the bed. At inabot ko siya ng braso ko palapit sa dibdib ko. I hugged her gently and kissed her on her forehead. Hinagkan ko siya bago muli ako humingi na naman ng tawad sa kaniya. "I'm sorry..." I told her as I hugged her small frame close to me.

I know that my sorrys wouldn't be enough. Kahit ilang beses pa siguro ako na humingi ng tawad sa kaniya at ulit-ulitin ko pa hindi ko na mababalik pa ang mga nangyari at nawala nang panahon sa amin, while I still couldn't remember anything...

"I'm sorry." My lips remained pressed on the side of her head.

At nang maghapon ay nag-decide kami ni Yessa na sunduin na namin si Leon sa bahay ng parents niya dahil doon namin siya iniwan kanina nang umalis kami ni Yessa nitong umaga. And my son's grandparents on her mom's side also wanted to see him today. Kaya hinatid namin siya roon kanina sa bahay ng parents ng Mommy niya.

"Pagkatapos nating sunduin ngayon si Leon dumaan muna tayo sa mall o kung saang pasyalan? Ipasyal natin siya pagkatapos sa labas na rin tayo kumain ng dinner ngayon." Yessa smiled at me.

Ngumiti rin ako sa asawa ko habang pinagbubuksan ko siya ng pinto ng sasakyan. And I nodded at her before she got in the car. Sinarado ko ang pintuan pagkatapos at umikot naman ako sa driver's seat. And then I drove off to my in-laws house.

Pagdating naman namin sa bahay ng parents ni Yessa, my in-laws were looking at me like I was a stranger to them...

"Good afternoon, po..." I tried to greet.

Bahagya lang naman silang tumango sa akin...

And while Yessa was upstairs to get our son who also had his siesta here in his grandparent's home, my in-laws started to talk to me.

"How are you now, hijo?" My mother-in-law asked me.

"Okay na po ako..."

She sighed. "Mabuti naman. Yessa had already suffered enough from your accident. How about the other girl?"

"Po?"

She seriously looked at me. "I hope everything between you and that girl already ended now, too. Now that you have recovered from your amnesia already. Ang lakas din ng loob ng babaeng 'yon at parang si Yessa pa ang kailangang magmakaawa sa kaniya dati... Tsk." Umiling-iling si Mama...

And she looked at me again. Hindi pa rin nababawasan ang kaseryosohan sa mukha niya. "We only allowed what happened because you were still sick... Pero sana ay hindi na muling mangyari pa iyon, at hindi na muli pang masaktan ang anak namin, Leo."

"Pinagkatiwala namin sa 'yo si Yessabella... She's our only daughter. And we thought, na ikaw ang makabubuti para sa kaniya. Don't hurt our daughter again..." My father in-law said like a warning to me...

Nanatili naman ang tingin ko sa kaniya at unti-unti akong tumango sa Daddy ni Yessa...

"Enough. He was sick and couldn't remember anything..." Ang mother-in-law ko naman sa father-in-law ko. Pagkatapos ay muli siyang bumaling sa akin. "Basta, hijo. We won't anymore take what happened to heart, lalo na at nangyari lang iyon pagkatapos mong maaksidente at hindi mo maalala ang anak namin. But now that your memories have returned, we only hope for the better for you and our Yessabella. And of course, para na rin sa apo namin." She said.

I nodded at my mother-in-law as I tried to reassure them and my father in law.

"Have you fully recovered from your head trauma?" My father-in-law asked me. Who's also a doctor. Mga doctors din ang parents ni Yessa just like my parents, too.

I looked at him and I remember what the doctor told us. "The doctor said that I haven't recovered fully yet... But I will very soon remember all my past memories until before my accident happened..." I told them.

"Okay..." My mother-in-law nodded her head to what I said. She looked at me again. "We hope and pray that you will fully recover and heal very soon, hijo." She said to me and then she smiled at me a little.

Bahagya na rin akong ngumiti at nagpasalamat sa kanila ng father-in-law ko. "Thank you, po."

Pagkatapos ay nakababa na rin sina Yessa at Leon. Sinalubong ko sila ng anak namin sa may hagdanan. I took Leon and carried him in my arms. He immediately smiled wide when he saw me. "Daddy!" He hugged his small arms around my neck.

Napangiti na lang ako sa anak ko at ngumiti rin ako kay Yessa nang magkatinginan kami. As she smiled too while looking at me and our son.

Pagkatapos ay nagpaalam na rin kami sa parents niya na aalis na kami. And we thanked them for taking care of Leon today.

And then after that we went to the mall like what Yessa had said to me earlier before we went to her parent's house to get Leon.

And Leon was so happy when we brought him to the mall and bought him some new toys. Pagkatapos ay kumain na rin kami sa isang fast food na sikat sa mga bata. And Leon also like to eat there, kaya dinala na rin namin siya roon ng Mommy niya pagkatapos naming mamasyal.

It was a good day for us. Kahit medyo may ilan kaming mga hindi napagkaintindihan sa araw na 'to. I think our day still ended well. And I promised Yessa and Leon na mamamasyal pa ulit kami sa susunod. At hindi na lang sa mall. I plan to bring my family to an out of town trip o kahit mangibang bansa pa kami para magbakasyon, para makabawi naman ako sa kanila for our lost time...

In the evening, pagkatapos na naming mapatulog sa kwarto niya si Leon ay bumalik naman kami ni Yessa sa kwarto rin namin. And our night didn't end up with just us sleeping. Because I made love to my wife again for the second time today. And it didn't end there because we did it a couple of times more in the evening. Gusto ko lang makabawi sa asawa ko at iparamdam ko sa kaniya na mahal ko pa rin siya... at mahalaga siya sa akin. Dahil siya ang nanay ng anak ko...

It was painful earlier when she told me that she's thinking or doubting if I still love her...

But now that I remember her I know that I loved her that's why I married her and we have a son. And I just want to reassure her now...

I don't want her to think like that anymore. Like what her parents said to me earlier at their house that Yessa already had enough of what happened to me and she was hurt. Ayaw ko na rin siyang saktan pa.
