C67 Chapter 66

Hmm, how can I describe it? There are two mansions in front of me now that are both two stories too, they are on both sides but they look like one house because there is a small part of the house on my second floor that connects them. The color of the house is tawny, which is close to the color of brown.

My swimming pool in the middle of the two houses and on the first floor is only half the color of the glass wall, the other part is over space so you can hang out. All in all, it's nice to be on vacation, because you really relax surrounded by trees and then all you can hear is the sound of water and rain around you.

I thought we were going inside the mansion but no, we just passed by my patio and then we walked until we got to their backyard which is a vast land, I couldn't see anything but tall pine trees.

We walked to my side where there is a paved pathway. Mom and Dad secretly lived there, I just thought that maybe this is because the Señyora and Señyor were very worried about their safety, especially since what the men who destroyed the house did to us was not just a matter of course. We still walked a long way from the mansion.

"Are you okay? I can tell Joven and Manang Amor to take a break from walking." After a while the Señyora asked me, because I was just following them and it looks like she intended to slow down just so she could keep up with me, totally and it seems the Señyor and Aling Amor are also busy talking. I nodded.

"Don't stop Señyora, I can do it." He smiled at me.

"Don't be shy of me or Joven even to Manang Amor because from now on we will frequently see each other, Selena." And then he held the other hand and gently squeezed my palm. We looked at each other while walking. I could even read on the Señyora's face that she wanted to say something but she seemed to be holding her back.

We didn't even notice that Señyor and Aling Amor had stopped walking when - "Be careful now, Sofia... Selena." So Señyora and I looked at Señyor who looked like Señyora was watching us and she was very happy with what she was seeing.

"Oh, I didn't notice that we were here." The Señyora said, I frowned because there are no people in this part, there is no small house either. The number of pine trees planted here has only decreased. I kept looking back and forth between Señyor and Señyora until I couldn't stand it anymore and asked them where Mom and Dad were.

"Uhm, where are Mom and Dad?" But a few moments passed and I still didn't get an answer from them, Aling Amor even looked away.

"Uhmm - Señyora -" But before I could continue what I was going to say, I was cut off because Manang Amor also spoke.

"I'm already in my chair and I can't stand for long." And then he pointed to a tree not far away that is my bench. Señyora and Señyor nodded until only the three of us were left.

"Is it okay if we walk all the way to the end?" The Señyora asked me, I also looked at where she was looking.

"Um, go ahead." When we started walking, Señyora put one of her hands on my back so that I could keep up with them because I was slow to walk.

I don't know but as we got closer and closer to my end, I could feel my heart beating fast in a painful way.

The softening of my knees and fear that I don't know where it started or where it's coming from, because Mom and Dad aren't there at the end waiting so who are we going to go to?

Until I see my grave, not just one but two and only new pavement and paint. From the moment I stood up, I fell to my knees in front of the grave as my tears fell in succession.

"NO!!!" I screamed as I read what was written on the two tombs next to each other. There are the names of Mom and Dad. I immediately felt a hug from around me.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry Selena." Señyora said again and again while crying and hugging me tightly.

"I was also very angry and I blamed all the Doctors who attended Aling Odelia and Mang Berting but no matter how furious I am, how I beg them to revive your parents, over and over again it's really too late.

Your Mom and Dad can't make it anymore. Based on the death certificate, they have severely inquired their head and they are dead upon arriving at the hospital."

There are no words to say that my heart is divided in two because of the pain I feel, it's better to say that my heart is divided into a million million pieces. I lost my Mom and Dad at the same time and what's even more painful is that it's all my fault!

"I wish... I wish I was the one who disappeared. I wish it was me, Mom, Dad, I'm sorry... I'm sorry, nothing... I'm really worthless son." Crying in their graves. The whole time we were there, I didn't cry, I didn't cry, I was hoarse and my nose was full of cold, and the pain in my eyes made me cry and even more if I felt my body weak, but apart from that crying and blaming myself for why I lost them, I have nothing else to do.

Until the sky gradually darkened, there were thunders in a row and then big raindrops followed, but I didn't care, I would just be here with Mom and Dad.

"Selena we need to go back." The lady told me and then she took my hand. I didn't listen to him and I just kept looking at Mom and Dad's grave which was getting wet because of the heavy rain.
