In Love Series 2: Deeply

Kabanata 28

"I missed you, P-Papa..." I said in between my sobs. Humigpit ang yakap ko sa kaniya at dinama ang yakap na mula nang iwan kami ni Mama ay hiniling ko nang ibigay niya sa akin. "P-Papa..."

There are no words to describe the feeling I have now. I heard nothing from him and that was okay with me. His warm embrace is more than enough and I don't care about words. This is more than enough for me.

It was a miracle that I did not feel fear now. It was a miracle that I did not feel any discomfort towards my father. When I was unstable, physical and emotional, just hearing my father's name made me sank in pain. It made me almost loath my father. It made me fear him but today, it was a miracle that I did not feel any of them.

My love for him is thicker than the negatives. My love for him always tops all the hate. Despite the pain he inflicted to me... despite the dark years I spent alone... my love for my beloved father is all that matters.

I cried hard on his arms as I remembered the good old days.

"Ano ba iyan! Mamaya na kayo mag iyakan riyan! Kumain muna tayo!" Tita Sheryl said. A low chuckle came out from me. My tears jut won't stop.

Humiwalay ako kay Papa at nagpahid ng luha. Tiningala ko ang aking ama at binigyan siya ng isang ngiti. He did not smile back at me but I can see different emotions lingering on his eyes. He then gave me a kiss on the top of my head. Dinama ko iyon.

Living in the dark all these years is the hardest. It was a nightmare I don't want to remember. I almost give up because it is too much for me to handle. And living alone, battling with pain, the lesson made me stronger. In order to get through to it, we must always remember that it is not always the pain. We can gain something. Realization and life lesson is there, making us brave and ready to fight again, chaining our mind and heart to be unbreakable.

We can always choose: give up and regret things or rise and choose forgiveness.

In my case, I choose forgiveness. I choose to be brave and rise from pain even though I almost end it. I choose it because it is what life should be.

It wasn't an awkward lunch for us. They never asked my life before this day. Hindi ko alam kung alam nila kung gaano ako nahirapan o baka ayaw lang nilang masira ang masayang tangahalian.

"By the way, Aya, I got you and your friend a penthouse next to mine," said Kuya Liam in the middle of our graceful lunch. Napatingin ako sa kaniya at nagkunot ng noo.

"Why would you do that?"

"I just thought..."

"What happen to our mansion 'Pa?" I casually asked at tumingin kay Papa na pinapanood ako.

"Your Kuya Liam thought it was uncomfortable for you to live with me since..." he stopped. Nagtaas ako ng kilay.

"I don't want the penthouse. I'll live with you Papa." I smiled, assuring everyone that I am now okay. "The mansion is too big for Papa alone."

"Okay." mabilis na sagot ni Kuya Liam nang makita ang mas lumapad kong ngiti.

"Ako pwede rin sa mansion niyo , Alyanna?" singit ni Oli sa amin. Kuya Liam rolled his eyes at her. I laughed a bit because the war is starting again. "O ako na lang ang tatanggap ng penthouse. I will accept it wholeheartedly!"
