Tame

Matagal nawala si Tarius at Kuya Gavriel. Hindi sila umuwi nung summer at kahit pagkatapos ng klase namin ni Olivia, hindi sila umuwi. The kiss we shared in his car didn't even heard because he leave without any words for me.

I try to convince myself that this is for his career. He is taking his master's degree for Economics that's why, he needs to go abroad. Iyon ang pinasok ko sa utak kahit nung dumalaw si Tita Ciandra at Tito Tajik sa bahay at narinig lahat ng mga sinabi nila, pilit kong sinasabi sa sarili na hindi 'yon totoo!

Tarius kissed me! Ibig sabihin, may nararamdaman din siya sa akin! It might be love but he's just too coward to express his love because I'm too young! Tama, baka nga mahal na rin ako ni Tarius ngunit ayaw niya lang sabihin sa akin.

"It's been a year since our son's took their Master's Degree in abroad. Kumusta si Tarius?" si Mama.

For the first time, Tarius parents are here in our house! When I found out that they are here, I took a very flash shower because my presence must be downstairs.

Tita Ciandra sighed problematically.

"Hay naku Mare, you know that a lot of girls are very into my son. Catañia report to me that Tarius has a girl in States. Palagi niya daw itong kasama kahit saan. The girl even stay at my son condo! Baka kapag umuwi 'yon dito, magkakaroon na kami ng apo ni Tajik!" Tita Ciandra broke the news.

Natigilan ako sa pakikipagtitigan kay Gold. My heart pump crazily while my thoughts run violently. How dare that fucking old man have his mistress abroad! Am I not enough ha! Talaga bang ipapamukha niya sa akin na magkakaroon siya ng kabit sa ibang bansa! That freaking old ass!

Kapag talaga umuwi sila, I will scold him! I will tell him how idiot he is! Ako nga dito, I'm so very loyal! I didn't even let any guy date me! Tapos siya? Nakapag-abroad lang, may kabit na agad!

The audacity of that old man hag!

"Well, Tarius is the standard of all girls out there. Hindi na ako magtataka isang araw, marami na kayong apo." sulsol pa ni Mama.

My eyes rolled angrily. Kung makikita lang ni Tita Ciandra kung paano ako magalit baka tumahimik na sila. I look at my friend, Gold just look at me too. I sighed. Gosh, my heart didn't stop beating jealousy.

"Kaya nga e. Okay lang naman sa amin ni Tajik kung magsi-settle down na siya. He's old and he needs to have his own family." sagot pa ni Tita Ciandra.

Hindi siya magpapakasal dahil ako ang bride niya! Pinayagan ko siyang pumunta ng abroad kasi para sa aming dalawa ang pag-alis niya!

I stop, a bomb just explode in my heart and mind. Who am I to think and act like that? Who am I to think that Tarius is my soon to be husband? Who am I to let my feelings grow even there is no assurance at all? Who am I to let my heart fall to this trap?

I am nothing. I am just his best friend sister. I am just a little girl who had a very wild interest for him. I am just one of those girls dreaming to be his girlfriend. I am just nothing. He will never notice how my heart beating for him. He will never appreciate my efforts to be just notice by him.

Kasi sino nga ba ako para pansinin at magustuhan niya? Sino nga ba ako para isipin na siya ang lalaki para sa akin? I'm just imagining! I'm just hallucinating! And lastly, I'm just ambitious to think of him as my future husband.

"Taj, my offer still open. My daughter still waiting for your son." narinig kong pag-uusap ni Daddy at Tito Tajik.

It was another day in our house. Hindi ko ba alam kung bakit napapadalas ang pagpunta nila dito sa bahay. Nasa garden sila habang yakap-yakap ko ang garapon na pinaglagyan ko sa mga kaibigan.

"Seriously, Therome? I thought were good at it? I told you that my son will never like your daughter." sagot ni Tito Tajik.

Kumirot ang puso ko sa narinig na sagot. This is killing me! They killing my heart!

"In fact, as what my wife said, Tarius is having his serious relationship with a girl in States. Baka kapag umuwi 'yon, kasal na ang pag-uusapan." dagdag pa ni Tito na labis pumatay sa puso ko.

Hindi pa nga ako maka-move on sa balita na sinabi ni Tito Ciandra tapos dumagdag pa ito. Hindi ba talaga sila titigil na saktan ang puso ko? Hindi ba talaga sila papayag na maging kami ni Tarius?

Tito Tajik looks like he want old girl for his son. Tita Ciandra is happy to know that her son is having a girlfriend abroad. Pinamukha nilang patuloy akong umaasa sa walang kasiguraduhang pagmamahal para sa kanilang anak.

Mas lalong napatunayan ko ang mga sinasabi ng kanyang magulang dahil sa kanya. After a long lost, umuwi sila ni Kuya for a vacation. He was drunk and he touch my waist gently. Nasa bahay kami at nag-inuman sila.

"Shan... I-i'm drunk," he said softly.

Naramdaman ko ang haplos ng kanyang kamay sa aking baywang. I'm already fourteen! I celebrate my birthday last year! Ilang taon nalang din at magiging legal na ako! Why is it so hard for him to not like me? I'm lovely! I'm fucking beautiful! And I'm so hot!

"You know how much I like you. You know that I'm hopelessly devoted to you. I adore you so much that I think of you as my husband." I said very womanly.

He tilted his head, showing me his drunk eyes. I was about to reach his lips when he push me slowly the reason why I let go of his neck. He sighed, controlling his adoration to me.

"I have no plans on baby sitting, Sharina Nikolina. In fact, I have a girlfriend in States. She will be here anytime soon because we will arrange our wedding." sa malamig niyang boses.

The moment I heard it, I confirmed all the information that his parents instill in my mind. And that moment, I realized why should I follow a man who will never appreciate my love for him? Why should I pursue him if he cannot see me as his girl? Yes, I maybe young but fuck, my heart calling his name!

I had my suitors who's willing to be my boyfriend. I had a lot of boys around. Hindi na ako maghahabol, hindi pa ako masasaktan. I stop chasing him, and just enjoy my life with different boys day after day.

"I'm planning to tame my wild love." he said in his interview.

I just smirked. Go on, tame your ass wild love! I don't care! In fact, I'm enjoying having different boyfriends! Makakalimot din ako! And when that happen, I'll make sure you'll never see my eyes shouting love for you, Tarius Vicente!
