"Congratulations iha" my mom is crying and hugging me tight right now and caressing my back
I'm now finally graduated, I decided to continue studying Law while working because why not? I've been doing it for a long time now. It will be more difficult but I know I can
"Thank you for always being there mom" I wiped my tears and hug her again
Dad is not here, he's hospitalized a month ago. It's been a year when we found out that he's sick and dying. I know that this is what he want for me to be a successful lawyer someday
"Good morning tita. Boo" Lumapit sa amin si Kyniel kasama ang parents nya
"Congratulations Iho" bumeso pa sya Kay mommy at ganun din ginawa ko sa parents nya
"Kumusta Balae?" His dad smiling at my mom while her mom is quietly staring at me
Naiilang pa rin ako sa tinatawag ng dad nya Kay mom Pero I can't just say na don't call her that. Its a disrespectful way you know
I know that his mom never like me from the start because they know that I've been in a relationship with a girl before. I think she has an issue on that but she's not homophobic any ways its just that maybe she didn't know that one day her son will introduce someone like me who had a relationship with the same sex
"I'm good, how about you? Kumusta kayo?" My mom smiled back
I know they're both happy for us
"We have a small family dinner if you don't mind can we invite you over?" Alok ng daddy nya
"Oh I'm sorry but we also have plan for tonight and we will go to the hospital first, maybe next time"
Mabuti naman at tumanggi si mommy. I still have shoot tonight and I guess I'll drink a little
"It's okay. Baka naman Pwede usapang kasal na Pag nagkita kita tayo ulit" biro ng tatay nya Pero we just laugh awkwardly
I can sense the tension on myself now because of the sudden topic
"Tignan natin" my mom joke back
What a moment. I can't look at them right now.
"We need to go. Boo, let's celebrate some other time. I love you" he kiss me on my cheeks before following his parents
"Ilang buwan na rin kayo ni Niel iha. Bakit nga kaya di nyo pa pagusapan ang kasal?" Mom asked while we're walking
"Mom." Saway ko dito
"Plano Lang naman Hindi naman agad agad" she answered defensively
"I still have another four years of studying mom" mahinang ani ko na Lang
One of the reason why I continue going to law school is to longer the idea of getting married because I can't yet. I know I can't do it
Hindi na kami nag usap Hanggang sa nakarating kami ng hospital
"Dad" I caressed his arm. He's peacefully sleeping
He slightly opened his eyes and stared at me for a second before saying anything
"Congratulations my princess" he started crying
"Dad, don't cry please. Baka makasama sayo" I continue caressing his arm to calm him down
It really broke me seeing him in this situation
"I'm so proud of you anak" I hold his hand tight
"Thank you dad" I started sobbing
