"So, how are you, Victoria?"
Right, Tory and Ms Victoria Mercado Fernandez is just the same person! She is teacher from my old school, the one who caught and reported me and Adrien to Guidance office.
'What a nice day, indeed.' And that is sarcasm.
She smiled. "Okay lang naman po, nand'yan na po ba siya?"
She did not notice me yet because Mom is blocking me from her sight. "Yes, she is her!" Masayang wika ni Mom at umalis sa pagkakaharang sa akin.
Shock is visible on her face, I was, too. But I did not make it visible.
I looked at her and did not bother to smile.
Why I would?
"V-Vanya?" She stammer, still can't process. "Y-you are my sister?" Gulat nitong anas.
"Did You know her, Tory? She his Vanya and this is her Husband, Adrien. They look good together, right?" Mom said happily.
She definitely did not feel the tension between me and my 'sister'.
Hindi agad ito nakasagot pero nagiwas agad ng tingin. "I know them, Mom. Co-teacher ko dati si Adrien. Diba, A-Adrien?" She looked at my husband and cutely smiled.
"Yeah," malamig na sagot ni Adrien.
Tumingin ako kay Victoria. She is blushing while looking at him, like a high school girl being pabebe at her crush.
She still like my husband,
Of course, I know she liked him before. He told me, she confessed.
"Really? You are a teacher before, Adrien?" Si Dad.
Umiling si Adrien. "Just a substitute teacher, Mayor." Magalang nitong sagot.
Natawa si Dad. "C'mon, I told you, just call me Dad."
Maliit lang na ngumiti ang asawa ko at tumango.
Natahimik lang nang magsimula na mag-serve ang mga katulong. Mukhang pinaghandaan talaga ang hapunan sa dami ng pagkain na hinanda.
So feast for our 'sister', huh?
Now I know kung bakit sinabing mabait at magalang si Victoria. She really do, she respect our parents. She must be the nicest among us.
"Let's eat, now." Anunsyo ni Mom.
I sipped water while watching them. Nagsisimula na silang sumandok ng pagkain para sa sarili.
"You want adobo, baby?" Malambing na tanong ni Adrien.
I silently nods. "Just a little, hubby." Bulong ko.
He put some rice and adobo at my plate. He also put some capsuey in the side and pour orange juice for me.
"You really love serving your wife, Adrien." Bati ni Mom.
"Because I love her, Ma'am." namula ako sa kaniyang sinagot at pasimple pa siyang kinurot. He just chuckled.
He always serves me, mas nauuna pa niya ako pagsilbihan kaysa sa sarili niya kahit na sinasabi ko sa kanya na kaya ko. But he always use his 'I love doing this' card, so I can't fight with that.
Napatingin naman ako kay Victoria na nakatingin lang sa Plato niya pero halatang nakikinig sa amin.
Napangisi ako ng lihim.
You heard that, huh?
We started eating although I do feel something on her. Maybe because I did not like her.
