48: MOM, BE MINE

"MOM, BE MINE"

"Justin!You forgot your lunch,"napalingon ako kay mommy na tinawag ako.

Agad naman akong lumapit sa kanya. "Mom, hindi na ako bata,"I said then frowned.

Napadaing ako ng mahina nang biglang pisilin ni mom ang pisngi ko. "Yung baby ko binata na talaga,"I blushed at her words.

"Oh Justin,bakit hindi ka pa pumapasok?"I mentally rolled my eyes when someone behind me talked.

"Hon naman pinapagalitan mo agad. Binigay ko lang yung baon niya,"I smiled nonchalantly. Buti pa si mom mabait.

"Binabaunan mo pa yan?Kaya lumalaking spoiled yan e. Justin, pumasok ka na,"spoiled?Gusto mo lang akong umalis para masolo mo si mom.

"Ikaw naman. Sige na Justin pumasok ka na. Mag-iingat ka okay?I love you,"sabi ni mom saka hinalikan ako sa pisngi.

Again, I blushed.

I can't concentrate.

Hanggang ngayon kasi, mukha lang ni mom yung nasa utak ko.

This is happening for fucking five years na.

Last year I just realized I love my mother.

More than a mother actually.

And I cant take it anymore.

Ill get her from dad.

"JUSTIN!"napalingon ako kay mom habang hawak ang isang kutsilyo na may tumutulo pang dugo galing kay dad na nakahiga ngayon at may saksak sa puso.

My mom's face looked so horrified. "What did you do to your father, Justin?!"mom shouted.

I let go of the knife and walk towards my mom. I pinned her to the wall and kiss her torridly.

She tried on letting go of my grasp but it's no use. Pero napaupo ako ng tuhurin niya ako sa tiyan.

Nagmamadali siyang tumakbo palabas habang ako ay namimilipit pa din sa sakit.

I don't understand...I thought mom loves me but why is she running away?

My tears start to fall as I stand up. Nakaramdam ako bigla ng galit. Mas mahal niya si dad.

Dapat ako lang!

Kinuha ko muli ang kutsilyo saka tumakbo palabas para hanapan si mom. Sa kwarto nila, may narinig akong humihikbi sa cabinet.

Binuksan ko to at naabutan si mom na umiiyak.

I smiled. "Akala ko iiwan mo na ako mom,"

Her face looks puzzled. "What has gotten into you, son?W-Why did you kill your dad..."

"Di naman natin siya kailangan mom. Andito naman ako e. Mahal mo ako diba?Si dad palaging masungit. Hindi mo siya deserve mom. Pero ako, oo. Kasi kaya kong ibigay lahat ng hindi kayang ibigay ni dad,"

Napailing siya habang umiiyak. "Nabaliw ka na anak... bakit?Pinalaki ka namin ng maayos..."

I sat and level my face to hers. "Kaya nga mom e. Ang saya ko kasi inalagaan mo ako. Kaso sana hindi nalang kita nanay. Baka mas better yun no?"

"Mahal kita anak, kaya dapat kang sumuko sa pulis okay?Aayusin natin ang kasalanan mo–"

I acted hysterical. "NO!Ayoko mahiwalay sayo mom!Ayoko sa kanila!Ayoko!"

"Please..."

"Mahal mo ba ako, mom?"

"Oo anak,"

"Mas mahal mo pa kay dad?"

"Anak–"

My expression turned into grim. "Just as I thought,"

"Anak–"

"If I cant get you, better die mom,"I said then stab her with the knife.

Saka sinunod ko ang sarili ko.

What's life without her, right?
