JiliPark PH

It was one of those things you promise on a whim in the heat of the moment, while standing at the edge of the old pier, overlooking the sea and imagining your own stories for the horizon. They were childhood friends and hadn’t even known then that life could drift so far away from such promises.

But on this day, with the sun low on the horizon turning the water gold, JILIPARK PH stood on the pier and of that promise he had made her once long ago. He hadn’t thought about it in decades, not since a letter had arrived, out of the blue, reminding him of his pact with his childhood friend.

The note had been short: Remember the promise? We will meet next Saturday, at 1pm. Yepes Below the message, the date and hour were scribbled. It was a simple reminder. But JILIPARK PH had been surprised by the letter for two reasons. He wasn’t sure it wasn’t a joke, and he wasn’t even sure that Ana was capable of remembering. Still, for some reason he felt compelled to keep the appointment, to have dinner with the girl he had grown up with, to experience one last thing together, just as they had promised each other all those years ago.

And now here he was, coat flapping in the breeze, wondering if Ana would come. Minutes. Then an hour. And JILIPARK PH’s heart sank. He had been stupid to think she’d come. The world had changed. So had they. Again, just as he was about to walk away, he heard a voice behind him.

“JILIPARK PH?”

He turned to look, and his heart in his throat saw her standing a yard or two away from him, her hair very slightly greyed, her face very slightly lined, but there was no mistaking her – his Ana. She smiled, and the potential disaster was transformed into a triumph of hope.

“You came,” JILIPARK PH said, his voice thick with emotion.

‘I wasn’t sure you would,’ Ana said, stepping nearer. ‘It’s been so long, but I never forgot our promise.

For a moment they stood staring at each other, the years between years that meant nothing, and then JILIPARK PH reached out and Ana took his hand, the heat of her touch a sign that all was not lost.

They strolled along the promenade talking about the course of their lives, the roads they had chosen, the paths they had followed, the dreams they’d nurtured, and the ones they’d relinquished. In their last hour, there was no acrimony, no regrets, just the recognition of a beautiful harvest.

And when the sun slipped behind the hills and the lake glowed pale gold, he sat next to her on the bench. ‘I am glad I kept my word.’ He looked at her, and his eyes misted over.

‘Me too,’ Ana said, resting her head on his shoulder. ‘Some promises are worth keeping.’

It wasn’t just the promise that had brought them back; it was the enduring friendship. It was the mutual understanding that had survived the decades, the knowledge that, as they sat together and watched the sun’s last rays slide away over the western sky. And that was a promise that was good enough for both of them.

Isa ito sa mga bagay na ipinapangako mo nang biglaan sa init ng sandali, habang nakatayo sa gilid ng lumang pantalan, nakatanaw sa dagat at iniisip ang sarili mong mga kwento para sa abot-tanaw. Sila ay magkaibigan mula pagkabata at hindi pa nila alam noon na ang buhay ay maaaring malayo sa mga pangakong iyon.

Ngunit sa araw na ito, habang ang araw ay mababa na sa abot-tanaw, ginagawang gintuan ang tubig, nakatayo si JILIPARK sa pantalan at inalala ang pangakong ginawa niya sa kanya matagal na ang nakalipas. Hindi niya ito naisip sa loob ng mga dekada, hindi mula nang dumating ang isang sulat, na wala sa plano, na nagpapaalala sa kanya ng kasunduan nila ng kanyang kaibigang kababata.

Maikli lamang ang sulat: Natatandaan mo ba ang pangako? Magkikita tayo sa Sabado, alas-1 ng hapon. Yepes Nakasulat sa ibaba ng mensahe ang petsa at oras. Isang simpleng paalala lamang ito. Ngunit nagulat si jilipark com sa sulat sa dalawang dahilan. Hindi siya sigurado kung ito ba’y isang biro, at hindi rin siya sigurado kung kaya pa ni Ana na alalahanin ito. Gayunpaman, sa ilang kadahilanan ay naramdaman niyang kailangan niyang sundin ang napagkasunduan, makipagkita sa babaeng kanyang pinalaki, upang maranasan ang huling bagay na magkasama, tulad ng ipinangako nila sa isa’t isa noong mga nakaraang taon.

At ngayon narito siya, ang kanyang coat ay sumasayaw sa hangin, iniisip kung darating ba si Ana. Mga minuto. Hanggang sa isang oras. At lumubog ang puso ni jilipark com. Naging hangal siya na inisip na darating siya. Nagbago na ang mundo. Pati na sila. Ngunit habang paalis na sana siya, narinig niya ang isang boses sa likod niya. "jilipark com?"

Lumingon siya at nakita niya ito, ang puso niya’y kumakabog nang makita niyang nakatayo ito ng ilang yarda lamang mula sa kanya, ang buhok nito’y bahagyang umuban, ang mukha nito’y bahagyang nagkaroon ng mga linya, ngunit hindi niya ito mapagkakamalan – si Ana, ang kanyang Ana. Ngumiti ito, at ang potensyal na sakuna ay naging isang tagumpay ng pag-asa.

"Dumating ka," sabi ni jilipark com, ang kanyang boses ay puno ng emosyon.

‘Hindi ko alam kung darating ka,’ sabi ni Ana, lumapit ito ng kaunti. ‘Matagal na ang lumipas, ngunit hindi ko nakalimutan ang pangako natin.’

Saglit silang nagtitigan, ang mga taon na dumaan ay tila walang halaga, at pagkatapos ay iniabot ni jilipark com ang kanyang kamay at kinuha ito ni Ana, ang init ng kanyang paghawak ay tanda na hindi lahat ay nawala.

Naglakad sila sa kahabaan ng promenade habang pinag-uusapan ang takbo ng kanilang buhay, ang mga landas na kanilang pinili, ang mga daan na kanilang tinahak, ang mga pangarap na kanilang inalagaan, at ang mga pangarap na kanilang binitiwan. Sa kanilang huling oras, walang galit, walang pagsisisi, kundi pagkilala lamang sa isang magandang ani.

At nang lumubog ang araw sa likod ng mga burol at ang lawa ay nagliwanag sa mala-gintong kulay, umupo siya sa tabi niya sa isang bangko. ‘Natutuwa ako na tinupad ko ang aking pangako.’ Tinitigan niya ito, at ang kanyang mga mata ay naging mahamog.

‘Ako rin,’ sabi ni Ana, habang pinapatong ang kanyang ulo sa balikat nito. ‘May mga pangako na sulit tuparin.’

Hindi lamang ang pangako ang nagdala sa kanila pabalik; ito rin ang matagal nang pagkakaibigan. Ito ang mutual na pag-unawa na nagtagal ng mga dekada, ang kaalaman na, habang magkasama silang nakaupo at pinapanood ang huling sinag ng araw na dumulas papunta sa kanlurang kalangitan, ang mahalaga lamang ay nasa piling nila ang isa’t isa. At iyon ay isang pangako na sapat na para sa kanilang dalawa.
