I slowly open my eyes as i feel the light from the sun coming inside of our car. We've been smoothly driving our way to the Mansion of Korazon in the south and so far since our encounter in France, Jason and i are still not talking with each other.I feel like throwing up as i remember like a crystal clear what happened that cause my life to be this miserable.
Once again I'm here in our Province, it feels like yesterday when i decided to come back here because of Tito's wake and decided to leave as fast as i can. And then again I'm here this time I'm going to face my father. It's been like what? Two months since i last saw him in person and now that i just remembered my past with him i feel like i don't have the strength to face him because technically we're just going to fight over his nonsense superiority towards me.
"Señor, Señorita malapit na po tayo sa Mansion." Our drive tell us when we've reach the Ilaya. Truth to be told any minutes now will be arriving in our Mansion.
Why do i have to stay in the Mansion when i can stay again in Mamang house? Just because my father's here doesn't mean i need to stay in that bloody Mansion of ours.
Just as i thought we've arrived peacefully in front of our Mansion. I can see Manang waiting for us and the others for our arrival. Just when i was about to get outside the car Jason spoke.
"Aly.."
I halted from his voice calling me. I turned to him to face him clearly. "What?" I asked him.
"You don't have to stay here in the Mansion just because we're here. You can stay in Tita Kristina's house for the mean time and then i'll just fetch you before the charity in the Manila."
What is his issue now? Being a good husband to me now? I see. Well bad for him I'm not convince that he'd be good to me.
"I get to decide my actions here. You don't have to tell me what to do, because hindi talaga ako mag tatagal rito sa Mansion na'to kakausapin ko lang si Dad at kakamustahin ang mga kapatid ko bago umalis." I told him before i climbed down in the car. The maids greeted me and i just nod as a response to them.
I'm not in the mood right now to chit chat with them and be friendly. At least not right now, thanks to Jason my mood is now ruined.
Dire-diretso akong nag lakad pataas papunta second floor sa office ni Dad. Masyado pang maaga so i do think na tulog pa ang mga kapatid ko. My father? I sure do know that gising na gising na ngayon at marahil ay nag ka-kape at hinihintay din kaming dumating sa office niya.
Once I'm in front of his office, i just knocked three times before entering his dungeon. There i saw him sitting in one of his visitors chair inside sipping his hot coffee. Oh how i wish he would choked in that coffee.
"Done murdering me in your mind my dear?" He asked that cause to be startled a little bit.
"What are you talking about? I'm just looking at you." I told him before sitting in the chair away from him. I don't want to be near at him, at least not now. Ang aga aga para lalong masira ang umaga ko.
"Where's your husband?" He asked me when he placed his coffee mug on the table.
"I don't know, somewhere in this house?" I answered him uninterested.
He gave me a one last deep look before asking me about the land that he told me to handle before going back here in the Philippines. Good thing that about dun lang ang pinag tatanong niya and matapos ay umalis na kaagad ako sa office niya.
Sakto naman na pag labas ko ng office ni Dad ay may naka salubong akong isa naming katulong kaya tinanong ko siya kung gising na ba si Mommy Louise.
