[Musika]
hindi ko siya nakikita ngayon ngunit
sinasabi nilang naroon pa siya sa dating
pinagtuturuan sa walang pintang
paaralang una kong kinakikitaan sa kanya
naroon pa siya't nagtuturo ng mga
kaalamang pangakat at bumubuhay ng isang
uri ng karunungan sa kanya ko lamang
natutuhan Lagi ko siyang iniuugnay sa
kariktan ng buhay saan man sa kagandahan
sa tanawin sa isang isipan o sa isang
tunog kaya nakikita ko siya at ako'y
lumiligaya Ngunit walang anumang maganda
sa kanyang anyo at sa kanyang buhay siya
a isa sa mga pangkaraniwang guro noon
Walang sinumang nag-ukol sa kanya ng
pansin mula sa kanyang pananamit
hanggang sa paraan ng pagdadala niya ng
mga pananagutan sa paaralan walang
masasabing anumang pangkaraniwan sa
kanya
siya'y tinawag naming lahat na si mabuti
ang salitang iyon ang simula ng halos
lahat ng kanyang
pagsasalita Iyun ang pumalit sa mga
salitang hindi niya maalala kung
minsan mabuti ang sabi niya Mabuti naman
at umabot tayo sa bahaging ito mabuti
mabuti sa isang tagong sulok ng silid
aklatan pinilit kong lutasin ang aking
suliranin sa pagluha doon niya ako
natagpuan mabuti't may tao pala rito
wika niyang ikinukubli ang
pag-aagam-agam sa narinig tila may
suliranin mabuti sana kung makakatulong
ako ibig kong tumakas sa kanya at huwag
ng bumalik pakilanman napatda ako na
napaupong bigla sa katapat na luklukan
hindi ko alam na may tao rito naparito
ako upang umiyak din nakababa ang
kanyang mga paningin sa aking kandungan
maya-maya paay nakita ko ang bahagyang
niti sa kanyang labi
tinanganan niya ang aking mga kamay at
narinig ko lamang ang tinig sa
pagtatapat sa suliraning sa palagay ko'y
siya ng pinakamabigat
nakinig siya sa akin at ngayon sa
pagligo ko sa pangyayaring iyo'y
Nagtataka ako kung paano napigil niya
ang paghalakhak sa gayong
kamusmusang bagong nilikha sa akin mula
ng araw na iyon sa pagsasalita niya mula
sa hapag pagtatanong sumagot sa paghingi
niyang mabagal at mahiyain niyang mga
ngiti sa amin naririnig ko muli ang mga
yabag na palapit na sulok na iyon ng
silid aklatan ang sulok na iyon
iniiyakan natin ang sinabi niya ng hapon
iyon at habang tumataginting sa silid
namin ang kanyang tinig sa pagtuturo
hinuhulaan ko ang dahilan o ang dahilan
ng pagtungo niya sulok na iyon
hinuhulaan ko kung nagtutungo pa siya
roon at sapagkat natuklasan ko ang
katotohanang iyon tungkol sa kanya
nagsimula akong magmasid Maghintay ng
mga bakas ng kapaitan sa kanyang
sinasabi ngunit sa tuwina kasayahan
pananalig pag-asa ang taglay niya sa
pinuno siya ng maririkit na guni-guni
ang aming isipan hindi siya bumabanggit
ng anuman tungkol sa kanyang sarili sa
buong panahon ng pag-aaral namin sa
kanya niya ngunit bumanggit siya tungkol
sa kanyang anak na babae sa
tanging-tangi niyang anak ng paulit-ulit
hindi rin siya bumabanggit sa amin ng
kailan man tungkol sa ama ng batang iyon
ngunit dalawa sa mga kamag-aral namin
ang nakababatid na siya hindi balo
walang pagaalinlangan ang lahat ng bagay
at pangarap niyang marikit isinasalaysay
niya sa amin ang katabilan niyon ang
paglaki ng mga pangarap ni ion ay
nabubuong layunin niyon sa buhay minsan
nila hindi
namamalayang nakapagpapahayag ang aming
guro ng isang pangamba ang pagkatakot
niyang baka siya hindi umabot sa
matatayog ng pangarap ng kanyang anak sa
akin ang bawat pagbabanggit na iyon ay
nagkakaroon ng kahulugan sapagkat noon
pa may nabubuo na sa aking isipan ang
isang
hinala sa kanyang magandang salaysay ay
nalaman ang tungkol sa kaarawan ng
kanyang anak Anak niyang anim na taong
gulang na susunod na taoy siya'y
magsisimula ng mag-aral at ibig ng guro
naming maging manggagamot ang kanyang
anak at isang mabuting
magagamot nasa bahaging iyon ang
pagsasalita ng aming guro ng isang bata
sa aking likuran ang bumulong gaya ng
kanyang ama narinig ng aming guro ang
sinabing iyon ng batang lalaki at siya'y
nagsalita Oo gaya ng kanyang ama ang
wika niya ngunit tuma akas ang dugo sa
kanyang mukha habang sumisilay ang isang
pilit na ngiti sa kanyang labi Iyun ang
una at huling pagbanggit sa aming klase
ang tungkol sa ama ng batang may
kaarawan matiti ako noong may isang
bagay ngang malisya sa buhay Mali siya
ng ganoon na lamang at habang nakaupo
ako sa aking luklukan K kumirot ang puso
ko sa pagnanasang lumapit sa kanya
tanganan ng kanyang mga kamay gaya ng
ginawa niya ng hapong iyon sa sulok ng
silid aklatan at hilinging magbukas ng
dibdib sa akin marahil makagagaan sa
kanyang damdamin kung may may pagpatak
Tan siyang isang tao man lang ngunit ito
ang sumipit sa pagnanasa kong ion ang
mga kamag-aral Kong nakikinig na walang
anumang malasakit sa kanyang sinasabi Oo
gaya ng kanyang ama habang tumatakas ang
dugo sa kanyang
mukha pagkatapos may sinabi siyang hindi
ko malilimutan kay kailan man mabuti
mabuti gaya ng sasabihin nitong Fe iyon
lamang ang nakaranas ng mga lihim na
kalungkutan ang maaaring makakilala ng
mga lihim na kaligayahan mabuti at
ngayon magsisimula sa ating aralin
natiyak ko noon gaya ng
pagkakatipon ni sa aking pagsasalita ni
sa aking mga pagsusu ng umagang iyon
habang unti-unting bumabalik ang dating
kulay ng kanyang mukha muli niyang
ipinamalas ang mga nagtatagong
kagandahan sa alilin naing sa panitikan
ang kariktan ng katapangan ang kariktan
ng pagpapatuloy anuman ang kulay ng
buhay at ngayon ilang araw lamang ang
nakaraan buhat ng mabalitaan ko ang
tungkol sa pagpanaw ng manggagamot na
iyon ang ama ng batang iyon marahil ay
magiging isang manggagamot din balang
araw ay namatay at nabol ng dalawang
gabi at dalawang araw sa isang bahay na
hindi siya tirahan ni mabuti at ng
kanyang anak at naunawaan ko ang lahat
sa hubad na katohanan iyon at sa buong
kalupitan iyon ay naunawaan ko ang lahat
