Chapter 7
Helga *pov*
"Tatawagan ko ba siya??"i cant believe this..his commanding me to call him.."arghh" gigil kung tinaklob ang unan sa mukha ko..ngunit ilang sandali lang ay tinanggal ko ulit ...jees! that guy was insane,i dont want to call him,because i have nothing to say..but maybe he has something to tell me kaya pinapatawag niya ako..and im pretty sure that..our discussion will just end up fighting..because his an asshole..but then ,,i was always thinking about my scholarship..could he really mess it by convincing her mother..? "No,no way"naisa tinig ko..naalala ko pa kung paano ako nakapasok sa MC
Let me introduce myself first
Im helga Feigh pilapot,17..
Si mama..teacher siya sa isang public school,samantalang si papa ay isang simpleng empliyado sa kanyang pinagtatrabahuhan..sabi ni mama,nakapag college daw si papa,hindi lang nakapag master..
i graduated from a simple but descent school which can be found in our municipality as a valedictorian,as i graduated,i immediately asked my parents if i'll still be able to proceed to college,
my mama said,yes,ofcourse,but just here in university which also be found in our municipality ..i said its alright,ayos lang naman talaga di ba?? But my papa just disagree..
FLASHBACK
"Victor naman?wala ng ibang matinong university dito kundi iyon lang..." sabi ni mama na medyo naiirita na..i suddenly felt guilt..mag aaway ba sila dahil sakin?maybe no..hindi ko hahayaan yon..pero bakit nga ba nag protest si papa..
"Ofcourse lena,meron..madamiâ-please ..just this one,bigyan mo naman ako ng pagkakataon mag desisyon para sa anaâ" naputol ang sinasabi ni papa nang tumayo si mama,sinundan siya ni papa..hanggang tumigil si mama sa maliit naming terrace..naiwan akong nakaupo sa sofa namin at nanonood sa kanila..i know ,their not gonna fight..as i saw them talking,halata ang pagka irita at pag tutol sa muka ni mama..i wonder what their talking about..haha maybe about me..stupid..! unti unti ay lumamlam at umamo na ulit ang ekspresyon ni mama..at saka,marahang tumango..mabilis namang niyakap ni papa si mama at bumalik sa tapat kong upuan saka umupo..direktang tumingin sila sa akin..i can sense that,they want to tell something..something that i might end up thinking..
"Anak.."umpisa ni mama "n-napag desisyonan namin ng papa mo na-na"why sudden stutterâahh no..scratch that..its doubt.. a sudden doubt in my mama..hindi maituloy ni mama ang sinasabi niya,so i switched my turn to my father..
"Grhmm" he clear his throat "you-you need to stop,atleast 1 or 2 years anak.." natulala ako sa sinabi ni papa..si papa na walang gusto kundi ang mag aral ako at maging top students everyday..is this for real?
"But pa?"i manage to askEd
"Ah,helga anak.."nag salita ulit si mama at tumingin kay papa..i know,its hard for them to tell it directly to me..because they know how much i wanted to study..
"Kami ni papa mo,napag desisyonan namin na ipasok ka sa magandang eskwelahan,kaya namanââ"i knew it..i know what they were trying to say..kaya naman pinutol ko iyon..
"Ma,pa?just so you know,i am?"itinuturo ko pa ang sarili ko..jesus..i dont want to stop
"I am valedictorian,i have 50% scholarship given from my previous respective school,nkalimutan niyo na po ba??"aishh nakaka pang tampo naman..
"Syempre helga hindi namin nakakalimutan yon,pero ang gusto kong eskwelahan para sayo ay talagang prestihiyoso at disente,"sabi ni papa...
"Anak,kahit may 50% scholarship ka na,ang natitira pang kalahati,ay hindi pa rin namin kaya ng papa mo ng Biglaan..gusto namin ng papa mo na bigyan ka ng magandang kinabukasan,and that well known and prestigious school of moyer colleges will surely help you a lot..kaya nakikiusap kami anak na,maghintay ka muna..kasi kaylangan lang namin pag ipunan ni victor yun..pasensya kana anak kungâ"
