Dreams of Tomorrow | Book 1 (UNDER-EDITING)

Chapter 86

"Mom, Dad." I said while sitting. I know that it's already late, 2:30 na nang makauwi sila. 

"What?" Dad responded. 

"Totoo po ba? Na..." I suddenly stopped saying the next word. Paano kung hindi totoo 'yun? I might get embarrass.

"Na? Finish your words Rallianne, matutulog na kami." 

"Totoo po ba na ikakasal si Kay and Shawn?" Nauutal kong sabi. Dad looked at me confused, habang si mommy ay inaayos ang mga halaman niya. 

"Why did you ask? Is there any problem with that?"

Natahimik ako nang sabihin niya 'yun. I don't know what to say. I just suddenly felt tears falling from my eyes. "Dad, just answer my questio--"

"Why are you crying? Rallianne- I don't understand what you are pertaining to."

"Dad! Mahal ko si Shawn! We've been together for almost 8 months---" Biglang lumingon si Mommy sa gawi namin, while dad, he is shocked. 

"Rallianne Brittany?" Sambit ni mommy. 

"We kept our relationship secret, tapos, bigla ko na lang malalaman na ikakasal na siya?" I laughed. 

"Rallianne, bakit hindi mo agad sinabi sa 'min?" Dad asked. 

"I know that you're gonna get mad at me, I know that I have limitations. Pero dad, mom, I just want to feel what it is like to be in a relationship, nasa legal age na po ako." 

I just look at them, eye to eye. They're not responding. I guess they disagreed.

"Okay lang po, I'm not forcing you to like my decisions." I smiled at them at tumaas na para matulog. Hindi ko na hinintay ang sasabihin nila kasi alam ko namang ayaw nila sa ganong decisions.

I suddenly woke up when I felth that someone's shaking my body. "Ate, gising na. Aalis daw tayo." Tumingin ako sa gilid at nakitang nandoon si Alessia. 

"Where are we going? Umuwi na ba si Gwen and Kay?" Tanong ko. 

"Ate Gwen and Kay already left, kanina pa, sabi mo daw kasi sa kanila na iwan ka muna dito. Tsaka, uuwi daw tayo ng Laguna sabi nila mommy and daddy." She said. 

"Sila Dad and Mom, where are they?" I asked.

"I don't know either, tumawag sila Lola para papuntahin tayo sa Laguna." She replied, I just nodded as an answer. "Ate, narinig ko 'yung conversation niyo kahapon nila mom and dad. Are you okay?" She said worriedly.

My eyes widened, bigla-bigla akong lumingon sa gawi niya nang sabihin niya iyon. Nagising ba siya dahil sa sigaw ko? "Yes, I'm fine."

"Stop lying ate, I know you're not okay. Alam ko namang may relationship kayo ni kuya Shawn." 

Mas lalong nanlaki ang mata ko nang sabihin niya 'yun. "What.."

"Yes. I can see it through your eyes, ate. Ay--- basta, you need to get ready. Pupunta tayo kay na lola Reina." She said at lumabas na ng kwarto ko. 

I started making my bed, kahit na wala ako sa mood umalis, kailangan ko pa rin. I went inside my closet and wore my sweatpants and hoodie. Nag-toothbrush, hilamos at sinuklay ko ang buhok ko. I pack some of my thing at lumabas na ng kwarto. Lumabas na 'ko ng bahay at nakitang nandoon sa labas ang driver ni lola Reina, Alessia And Penelope are already inside kaya pumasok na rin ako. Natulog lang ako magdamag, hindi ko binuksan 'yung phone ko kahit once, I turned it off at nilagay lang sa bag. The whole car is filled with silence. 

I think I know the reason kung bakit pinapapunta kami Mom and Dad sa Laguna, It's because they want to cover up the issue at ayaw nilang pag-usapan 'yun, that's why they left.
