Aya did not go home with me that night, my parents wanted me to stay and talk but I do not want. Adrianno is the most taboo thing in my life. Him being a topic to me is something I do not know how to deal with.
Pinagpabuti ko na lang na hindi rin sa bahay matulog, I stayed with Andrew. Sa mata nilang lahat ako ang may kasalanan. Mommy and Daddy said I should have let Ian talk. Pero di ko maisip kung bakit. What for? He could have done that 10 years ago! Why now? Why just now when everything's okay.
"Hon, calm down."
I went up and clothe myself. Isa pa tong si Andrew eh.
"Hon.."
Hindi ko na lang din pinansin si Andrew. Tuluyan akong bumangon at pumunta sa kusina.
"Hon,..."
Andrew hugged me from the back.
"I don't want you upset but I think, may point naman ang Mommy mo. Do you really know what happened?"
"How could that be right?! It was already 10 years ago!"
"Hon, if you don't know how to listen, you will not know what happened."
"Whatever happened, already happened. It's his choice to just leave me without a word then it's my right not to talk to him."
"Hon."
"I cannot even face him! I am so mad."
"Shhhh. Just let him talk, listen to him."
"Teka nga Andrew, aren't you afraid of me getting back to him? Paano pala kung makinig ako sa kanya tapos bumalik ako sa kanya?!"
Andrew smiled.
"Every day I am getting afraid of you seeing other men more worthy to be your man. But you coming back to me every single day makes me trust myself. I trust myself that I made you fall for me so hard that there would be no point of return."
"Andrew...."
"I am afraid Sab, but I trust your love for me, I trust us."
I took a deep breath.
"Here."
"What's this?"
"Vacation?"
"Why?"
"For our 4th anniversary."
"Oh my God! I am so sorry Honey! I forgot!"
Andrew smiled, "It's okay Hon."
So I just hugged and kissed him.
"Do you think we can bring Aya with us?"
Haiii, with Andrew being like this, I would never be on par with being a father.
"Hon, she'll stay with Mommy and Daddy, that's for sure."
"She might want to come with us."
"No Andrew, it's okay if we go na tayo lang."
Andrew smiled.
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah."
"But."
"Hon, let Aya be with my parents."
"But she would like to come, let's bring her okay?"
I nodded, hindi naman ako mananalo. He was Aya's spoiler.
After our lunch, we decided to go back to my parents' house. Andrew accompany me to my parents' house and I was just so mad that I am still seeing Adrianno again there!
"Ano na naman ang ginagawa mo dito??!"
"Sabrielle!"
"I do not know how thick your face is to still have guts of coming back."
"Sabrielle!"
"Why Mommy? May mali ba sa sinasabi ko?!!!"
"Sabrielle!"
"Daddy! Pati ba naman ikaw??"
"Sab let's listen to him, maybe he needs to tell us something, maybe, we need to hear something."
"No Daddy."
"Sab."
"So ako ang mali??"
"Sabrielle!!"
"Ah, Atty, Tita, maybe we need to leave first."
"Ano??"
"Hon, let's go first."
"I'll bring Aya!"
"Sabrielle!"
"Daddy, why am I being wrong again?"
"Sabrielle, we just want you to listen to him, if you cannot then let him explain to your daughter."
"Aya is just 10 Dad!"
"Yes, and she can understand already."
"Daddy! How?! "
"Sab, please trust us with this."
"Mommy it's not just a matter of trust but you have no idea how I have dealt with everything after his absence."
"Sab!"
Kung wala lang ang magulang ko dito, I would have said a lot more. Pero kasi Daddy is here and saying something that would hurt him and Mommy is something I won't tell.
"You have the guts to come back after 10 years? Why? Ian, I did not ask much from you, neither expected a lot, ang gusto ko lang naman manatili ka noon. I want you to stay and be with us. But you know what you did? You left! You left me hanging. You left me and Aya! You left with nothing! Even a word!"
Andrew held my arms tighter.
"We better leave Hon. Tita, Atty. I think we just need to get back."
I was panting with much anger while Andrew pulled me back to the car. At dahil ayaw ko pa talagang umalis, halos buhatin na ako ni Andrew.
"Hon,..."
"Wala syang karapatan!!"
"Hon, you know how much I love Aya, I love her because she was yours. I love her like she's mine also. But still, she was his daughter."
"He doesn't deserve to be acknowledged."
"Hon,.."
"No! Aya can't be with him."
"Hon, you have to understand that we can't deny the relationship between them."
"There would be no relationship!!!"
"Hon,..."
"NO!"
Andrew sighed.
"Hon, calm down. You need to calm down so you can think right."
Haii Andrew, now I wonder why did your ex-wife leave you when all you have is peace in your heart and calmness in your soul? Without you, I will really have been a very bad person.
