Another Chance (Russo Series 2)

Chapter 34

"Kamusta ka anak?" nag-aalalang tanong ni Mommy.

"Ayos lang po ako My, nagulat lang ako na may ganitong balita," I said then I smiled to assure them that I'm really okay.

Well, not really but I don't want to give them a reason to be worried. Besides, I know that I can overcome this.

"I'm sorry, hija. Hindi namin alam na may ganitong mangyayari. Sana ay napigilan ko."

Daddy looked stiff but I know he's worried, too. Look at this old couple, until now they don't want me to have any burden. All my life I've been sheltered. Hindi nila ako pinilit na mamahala sa businesses namin o kung ano pa man. All the time, they want me to have an easy life. I love that about them but now, I know I cam deal with this issue without bugging them.

"Mommy, Daddy... ayos lang po. It's not your fault. Ako po ang nagkamali. Dati pa man, ako ang nagkamali. Hindi n'yo na po kailangang problemahin pa ito," I said sincerely.

Umaasa ako na masosolusyunan nga ni Sechan ang isyung ito. Pero kung kinakailangan talagang magsalita din ako ay hindi ako magdadalawang isip na gawin.

I let him handle this because I don't want to intervene with his relationship with Amanda Vicencio. That's their problem. My connection to them has long gone. Wala na akong kinalaman sa kung anong ugnayan nilang dalawa.

My closest connection to them would probably my connection to Sechan. Pero wala na din iyong direktang kinalaman pa sa kanila, sa amin lang iyon.

Bumukas ulit ang pinto ng opisina ni Daddy sa bahay ng pumasok si kuya. Mukhang may kinausap pa siya sa phone kaya ngayon lang nakapasok.

"Sechan's having a press conference right now," iyon agad ang bungad ni kuya.

Huminga ako ng malalim.

This is the solution he came up with. I really hope that the press con will give a positive result.

I decided to rest in my room after the talk to my parents. I feel exhausted even when I didn't do anything extreme today.

I'm not opening any social media sites or reading any updated articles. Hindi ko din sinasagot ang mga tawag ni Molly para sa kung anong balita.

I'm waiting for him. Gusto kong si Sechan ang magsabi sa akin. I don't know but maybe I just trust him so much that I'd feel better if he's the one who will update me.

Sinubukan kong libangin ang sarili sa kung anu-anong mga bagay na nasa loob lang ng kwarto ko. Ayoko muna ding lumabas. I am too guilty for making my parents feel sad because thay can't do anything. I don't want that, it's not their fault.

It's also not my entire fault. I maybe contributed for not being concious but that's because I'm not hiding anything.

Sechan had told me that there's nothing going on between him and Amanda and that's the only thing that's making me feel better. Wala kaming ginawang masama. This time, I know that I am right.

Sa kakahintay sa tawag ni Sechan ay nakatulog na pala ako. Nagising lang ako dahil sa sunod-sunod na katok sa pintuan ng kwarto ko.

"Sandali lang," I unconsciously shouted, forgetting that my room is soundproof.

Mula sa kama ay mabilis akong tumayo agad para pagbuksan ang kunakatok. Gabi na, baka dinner?

"Oh, kuya?" si kuya pala.

He looks so serious.

"May nangyari ba?" kinakabahan kong tanong.

I'm thinkung of the worst. What if Sechan didn't make it? Will it bw the end of my career as a model? Will this controversy taint my name forever?
