[Book 2]: I'm Coming Home (Sandro Marcos) (Ongoing)

36 Mama? Dad?

Simon's POV

It's been a week since Tito Marcus was reported on TV, and si Max eto iyak padin ng iyak, she doesn't want to eat and even talk everytime I approached her she's not responding. Yung kambal naman napilit kona na wag mag skip ng school kase super affected din sila.

And even her birthday hindi na namin na celebrate, si Kianna and Vinny then both contact me para maging updated kay Max pati si Mom and Dad super worried, pero like what I said I will never get tired para kay Max I'm willing to take everything just to assure that she's going to be happy again

"Hon you should eat na, hindi mo nanaman ginagalaw yung mga dinadala kong foods. Do you want anything ba?" I ask Max she's sitting at the veranda while crying, she still carrying Tito's jar

"Hon hindi ka pwedeng mag kulong dito sa guess room habang buhay... You need to go sa company they need you there" sambit ko naman then nilapitan kona siya

"Hon wag mo namang pabayaan yung sarili mo, nag aalala na ako ng sobra sayo... Come on let's eat na sasabayan kita~"

"Ano bang gusto mong mangyari Simon? Ano gusto mo pumasok ako sa trabaho na parang wala lang sa akin ang lahat?" She cut me off

"No hon what I mean is~"

"Get out Simon, mag aaway lang tayo kung hindi ka lalabas" Max said she wants me to get out of this room

"Eat your food" huli kong sambit bago lumabas

Max's POV

Since my father died, I feel like my life is meaningless, I don't want to eat, I don't want to talk to anyone. I even neglect my own children

Dad why are you doing this to me? Is that why you forced me to visit mom just because you  will also go to heaven na?

Mama, Dad mag paramdam naman kayo sa akin kahit sa panaginip lang, para naman maitanong ko kung ano ang rason bakit nyo ako iniwan sa ere?

Days passed and I just want to lie in bed, I want to be always asleep so I can dream about them.

"Max kamusta kana anak?" I saw dad he's with my mom

"Dad? Mama?" I ask them

"Oo anak kami nga ng daddy mo" mom said then I immediately got up from the bed to go to them

"I miss you dad, I miss you mama" I said then I hugged them both

"Hmmm alika nga dito muka ka nang gus-gussin" Mom said then hinila niya ako sa loob then sinuklayan niya yung gulo-gulo kong buhok

"Mama naman" sagot ko naman "anak yung sketch mo pala kamusta na?" Dad uttered while my mom still brushing my hair

"Hmmm you want to see it dad?" I ask dad "no anak I know kahit hindi ko makita sure ako maganda" he is teasing me

"Anak?" Mom approach me "hmmmm?" And I'm just hmmd "I want you to promise to me na magiging malakas at matatag ka ah" mom said

"Of course ma, ako paba? Maxine Alcatara ata to" pag yayabang ko pa "hmmm sabi mo ah" she's assuring

"Oo nga po mama" sagot ko naman "Anak" singit naman ni Dad

"Po?" Sagot ko "promise me na hindi kana iiyak ah" sagot naman niya

"Bakit po ba puro kayo promise?" Tanong ko naman "aalis kasi kami ng mama mo at matatagalan ang pag balik namin... Baka nga hindi na kami maka balik eh" dagdag pa ni dad

"Basta dad kahit anong mang yari dapat bumalik kayo ah"

"Let's see anak" dad said sarcastically "can you please grant my last wish?" He ask me

"What is it Dad? Anything for you" masaya ko namang sagot " always choose what makes you happy hmmm? Look anak just keep on leaving kahit masakit at hindi mo na kaya kayanin mo padin, dahil ang buhay ng tao ay puno ng challenge maybe right now whatever you're going through is probably the Lord's new task for you, and the Lord knows you can handle it because he won't give us a problem if we can't... Okay" he said then I just nod

"Oh siya sigi na aalis na kami" mom uttered then they both kiss me on my forehead

"Shhhhhhh hon stop crying" Simon is shaking my body while I'm seating in front of the mirror

"Hon si mama and Dad nandito sila kinausap nila ako" umiiyak kong sabi kay Simon

"Hon your just dreaming, kanina ka panga umiiyak eh nag aalala na ako sayo" sagot naman niya

"Huh?" Ask him in a confused face

"Yeah you're crying hard that's why I'm shaking your body" Simon said then napa tingin ako sa jar ni dad totoo nga I'm just dreaming lang

A/n: wala din po akong daddy 17 years kona din pong hindi nakikita kaya I feel what is Max feels rn.
