Haunt you everyday

ESHA'S POV

I stopped the car while touching my belly, it freaking hurts that bad. I was here at Makati City, I drove that fast para lang makalusot sa pangb-bangga ni Adallina kanina, hindi ko kasama si Kieran dahil bigla siyang tumalon palabas ng kotse niya. I tried calling up my friends, so I can sleep on their house this night but neither one of them are answering me.

When I saw the pregnancy test and it's positive, my friends told me to be with Kieran, live our lives for some good reason then have a good life with the baby. That's why, I did the last pleasure to him today but there's bad things happened today that I don't expect at all. I was shocked when I got home earlier because they are glaring at me like they know something and they does.

Gusto kong sabihin kay Kieran but how can I do those things and say it to him? Paano ko gagawin kung halos ang buong atensyon niya ang paghingi ng kapatawaran sa ampon na 'yon! Yes, we made a mistake and it's just part of my plan but wasting his time and saying sorry to the adopted woman rather than celebrating and helping me raising this kid on my belly but NO! He didn't.

Habang tinatawagan ko si Cheska, luckily, she answered it. "What do you need, girl? Money again? Ubos na, girl dahil sa pakikipag-club ko yesterday." Sambit niya pero hindi ko siya sinagot. "Hoy, Esha! Bakit ka ba tumawag? Tripping ba 'to?"

"Cheska... Cheska, can I sleep at your house tonight?" Diretsahang tanong ko pero katahimikan ang bumuo sa aming dalawa. "Cheska? Cheska, are you still there?"

"Bakit? Hindi mo ba kasama si Kieran? 'Di ba dapat magkasama kayo dahil doon sa balita mo para sa kaniya?"

"Alam niya na pero hindi ganoon ang nangyari tulad ng ine-expect ko, Ches. Hindi niya man lang ako kinausap, tiningnan o kumustahin man lang dahil inuna niya pang mag-sorry kay Adallina kanina." She gasped. "I know, we made a mistake pero sana naman, naisip niyang unahin kami?"

She chuckles, so I gor confused. "Kung ako sa iyo, Esha? Bumalik ka na lang sa inyo dahil ayokong makasama ka and guess what? Ipapabayad ko sa 'yo iyong mga inutang mong pera para lang makasama sa clubbing namin, okay?" I was surprised that my tongue cannon even form a one word. "I don't trust cheaters, Esha. Keep a distance for the both of us."

"But... You told me a-and you even agree with m-my decisions when Livius disagree with it though."

"Ano, ako? I agreed with you? It's not about agreement, it's all about tolerance, Esha! Hindi mo ba nagets 'yon? You took Psychology but you don't have the IQ they needed the most, my gosh!" She chuckles. "Sige na, you better checked the new live news tonight maybe it will give you some better and confortance tonight, oh my gosh."

She hung up the call, I checked my social media account and I saw the news about tonight's accident. Halos mapatalon ako sa takot at gulat sa mga nakita ko ngayon, grabe 'yong iwas ko sa aksidenteng ginawa ni Adallina ngayong gabi pero may isang taong nakapansin sa mga mata ko; Kieran was there, laying on the ground and his forehead was bleeding, oh damn!

"Kieran! Oh gosh, what the hell should I do now?"

ADA'S POV

Umupo ako sa may lobby, kinakausap ako ni Preston and he pay the bills for us which is another thing I owe to him a lot. Habang naghihintay kami roon, dumating si Dr. Bailey and say sorry for my loss pero hindi na lang ako kumibo at nilapat ang ulo ko sa may balikat ni Preston, ang dami nangyari ngayong gabi, sobrang dami.

"Do you want something? Something to eat? Something you want to do?" Sunod-sunod na tanong niya pero umiiling lang ako. "Kumain ka na ba? Okay ka lang ba? Stop thinkin-----"

"I'm not thinking about the loss of my parents and step brother. I was thinking about that stupid guy over there, trying to saw his healthy looking good feet."

He stared at me, confused and when I pointed the patient, he ran off towards the guy and stopped him. Tulala lang ako roon habang pinapanood si Preston nang may isang taong bumulaga sa akin nang isang malakasang sabunot sa buhok ko na parang tumagos sa buong anit ko, gosh!
Nang titingnan ko na halos gusto kong gumanti pero inawat siya ng mga guards at hinawakan ang mga braso nito para hindi na makalapit, I felt two differents hands are holding mine; I was right, it's them, Kieran and Preston.

"You killed my parents and my brother! You're such a scumbag!" Ate Esha shouted at me and acting like damn bitch loser who really loves them even she doesn't, gosh. "How can you sit there and act like you've done nothing huh? Because of your anger, because of that shortness of temper you had, namatay sila! All because of YOU!" Sinugod niya ako pero isang malakasang hagupit na sampal ang bumuluga sa kaniya kaya halos manginig ang mga palad ko sa lakas nito. "H-how dare y-you?!"

"How dare you! You ran off to your problems, you cheated with my fucking freaking boyfriend and you have done NOTHING for this family at any costs, Esha! How dare you to talk to me like I was the one to blame? You're supposed to be the one suffering and suffocating your nasty body in the morgue not my parents and kuya Livius! Ikaw 'yon!"

She chuckles that made my anger rises for another higher level. "Ako? All I want for this family was to get rid of you, pero hindi ko magawa dahil pumapabor sa iyo si Livius and he gets on my way everyday! I did something not for me but for the rest of MY FAMILY." Mariin nitong sambit kaya napapangisi at naiirita na lang ako sa kaniya. "Hindi ka pupunta sa burol nila, hindi ka pupunta o hindi ka sasama sa paghahatid sa kanila sa sementeryo. Never and will never ever be! Ampon ka lang, so you should stay being like that, living like that."

"Hindi ko naman ikakamatay kung hindi ko sila maihahatid o madalaw sa burol nila, as long as I can apologize and saw them on their last minute, I am fine with that." She smirked and walked unto my direction. "May nakalimutan ka pa bang sabihin? Kung meron man, paki-email na lang ha? Kapagod kasing makinig sa hayop na kanina pa nauulol."

Her eyebrows raised that made my mind laugh on its own. "Hindi ka na pwedeng tumuloy sa bahay, umalis ka na at huwag nang bumalik pa. Dapat bukas ay wala na ang gamit mo roon, dahil sa oras na naroon ka pa rin, ako na mismo ang sisipa sa 'yo palabas ng bahay namin."

"Ano kamo?! Ako, paalisin mo bakit? Sino ka ba para gumawa nang ganiyang hakbang ha? Parte ako ng pamilyang 'to kaya may karapatan din ako sa bahay na 'yon."

She caressed my chin and pushed me harshly. "Wala kang karapatan dahil ampon ka lang. WALA! Nagkakaintindihan ba tayo?" She chuckles and waved her hands as she bid good bye's. "Pakisabihan na rin si Kieran na samahan ako, okay? Baka ma-stress ako at malaglagan pa ng anak and oh btw, I really appreciate you swallowed your own pride for Kieran's happiness."

I smiled bitterly. "Of course, pareho naman kayong kampon ng kasamaan kaya bagay na bagay kayo, okay? Take note niyo na rin, once a cheater, always a cheater. Kapag niloko niyo isa't isa, sabihan niyo ako ha?" She looked confused. "Sasabihan ko kayo ng CONGRATS tutal naranasan niyo na ring maloko. Maraming salamat!"

-------------------------------------------------

Pagka-alis niya, sinundan namin siya ni Preston at iniwan doon si Kieran. Nang makarating kami roon sa bahay, kinuha ko na 'yong mga gamit ko at sakto naman dahil wala pa si ate Esha tapos dumiretso kami sa kuwarto ni kuya Livius. Habang pinapagpag ko 'yong mga unan niya, may nakalagay na isang papel doon sa ilalim ng unan niya, what's this?

"Ano 'yan?" He asked at kinuha 'yon. "Oh, picture pala."

"Yeah, our very first family picture without ate Esha." I smiled bitterly. "Ang gaganda ng ngiti nila riyan, sobrang ganda."

"Kitang-kita naman." He smiled and took a picture of it kaya nagtaka ako. "Y-you okay, Ada? May masakit ba?"

"S-sila Mom, dang!" Sambit ko habang nakahawak sa sintido ko. "Galit sila sa akin, g-galit na galit sila. Preston, galit sila! Galit!"
