Sour Taste of Selene (Sour Series 1) [Completed]

05 : Whisper

Chapter 5
Whisper

Lumabas ako ng banyo pagkatapos maghilamos, I should not allowed this thing to happen well, if hindi ako pumayag maging escort si Ivan syempre hindi ako papakinggan nila mommy, ano nga namang problema ko if maging escort ko siya? Am I insane?

I pretend like nothing happened after I walk towards him, inaya ko na rin siya maglunch since it is passed 11:30 AM ng matapos kami sa pagpili ng gowns. Dadating mamaya ang secretary ko para ipakita sa akin ang mga venue na napili ni mommy.

"Bakit daw wala sila mommy?"

Usually si mommy ang nag aayos para sa birthday parties ko gaya noong mga nakaraan. Pampalubag loob?

"May emergency meeting lang sila kanina, pauwi na rin daw." 

Tumango ako at umupo sa inilahad ng katulong gaya ng kanina nakatingin lang si Ivan sa akin habang ginagawa ng mga katulong. Siguro nasa isip niya na sobrang spoiled ko sa buhay ko while I am thinking kung paano ko siya gagamitin para makatakas sa bahay na ito.

"Anong koneksyon mo sa pamilya ko?" hindi ko na napigilan ang sarilli ko sa pagtatanong pagkatapos umalis ng mga katulong at pumunta sa likod ko, ganon lang sila lagi tuwing kumakain kami, waiting for us to call  them for our needs.

I look at him while he is busy serving his self pagkatapos ay tumingin siya gamit ang nanantyang tingin, I equaled it, pinaningkitan ko siya ng tingin at nanatiling naghihintay sa kaniyang sagot ng tumagal at nakatitig lamang siya sa akin ay napairap ako bago tumungo. With his stares I am like melting ice, kanina pa siya tingin ng tingin, may gusto ba ito sa akin?

I blushed at the thought of him liking me. I heard him chuckled, why he's chuckling everytime? I look at him with glare making sure that he would feel the intensity of my raging fire.

"Tinuturuan ako ng daddy mo tungkol sa farm, siya rin ang nag sponsored sa pag aaral ko."  My death glare starting to melt, so my father trusted him so much than her own daughter?
I look down at my food and start to eat slowly, it is my favorite but I do not have the appetite now, seing the figure of a child my parents want in front of me, I am sure they are spoiling him more or treating him more like their own child than me.

The thought of the three of them happy in a picture that is supposed to be me hurts a lot. It is like I am far away from them crying and all smile while they are completely happy celebrating every occasion together like a happy family I am reading in books. Noon pa man I am wishing for my mom and dad to have them in Christmas and New Year but it never came. Kasama ko lang sila kapag may birthday ang isa sa amin dahil kailangan, for the camera. So that they will be public figure, a role model for the others.

A tear escaped in my eyes so I closed it to stop. I stand up and start running to my room but before I could leave the dining table he stand up and hug me, nanghina ako, I should pushed him away, I could do that but there is something in me that if I do that baka magsisisi ako so I let him for a while.

 I felt a sudden relief when all the tears stop and my breathing became normal.

Once in a while it is good to have someone with you, when you feel so down, there is someone that would lift you up. With his hug I feel like I am safe, no one could ever break me because he is there, my shield.

Magdamag kong inisip ang tungkol doon, I am still not okay with the fact  that my parents is treating someone like their own child. Pagkapasok ko sa kwarto kanina pagkatapos pumili ng venue I immediately searched about my parents.
