Trixie's PoV
I walked out only to see my son playing with River. Sobrang saya ng anak ko pero hindi nakaligtas sakin yung pagpahid ni River sa mata niya. As if teary about spending time with his son.
"Yaya, pakibantayan si Zac. I'Il just use the restroom" sambit niya rushing towards the bathroom.
I didn't know what's gotten into me but I followed him, only to hear him sobbing inside the restroom.
"Ahh... *sobs fuck you River... fuck you"
I gasped hearing his words
"May isang buwan pa... pero isang buwan lang ba talaga mararanasan ko kasama anak ko? Just... just what did I do so wrong... *sobs"
W-what am I doing?
I left him and went to my son bago kami pumuntang kitchen to get something to eat.
"Papa!"
"Hey baby..."
I looked at him and he was smiling... but his eyes were puffy from crying. Napansin niya sigurong nakatingin ako sa mata niya that he looked away.
"I-I'll get you food" sambit pa nito turning his back on us.
"Mama, papa has so many toys for me!"
"Really?"
"Yes mama! They were all so good!"
"Are you happy?"
"Yes mama! Super happy!"
"That's good to know, Zac"
"Here's your food..."
"Thank you, River" sambit ko na tila ba ikinagulat niya
"W-welcome"
River's PoV
T-that's a first.
"Kumain ka na?"
"A-ahh no... not yet"
"Zac, daddy's not yet eating, what will you say?"
"Papa! Eat!! Eat with us!"
"W-what?"
"You heard the kid, you want me to get you food?"
"N-no, ako na" sambit ko before getting my own food.
Am I hearing things right or is she... getting casual with me now?
Pero bakit? D-does she want this last month to be... different? Maybe she wants our son to think good thoughts? I... I don't know but I'm still happy about this...
"May problema?" Tanong niya bigla sa tabi ko
"X-xie ano... wala"
"Then eat with us. Lika na. Naghihintay anak mo"
"Xie..."
"We'll talk later, I promise"
Bumalik ako sa hapagkainan and was staring at them for a few seconds nang mapansin ako ni Xie. Bumulong to sa anak namin before my son called me out
"Papa! Haha"
"W-what?"
"Papa close your mouth! Insects will fly in papa! Haha"
"O-ohh uhm sorry"
I started eating with them but I can't stop looking at Xie... I really missed her, but I can't even touch or hug her even if I wanted to.
We were quiet while dining when my mom came in
"River Quijero stop wasting your time waiting for that stupid btch!!"
"Uhm... Xie just bring Zac up my room please"
"Will you be okay?"
"I will be. Ako na bahal kay mama"
"River!"
"Ma?! Ano ba?!"
"Haven't you still gotten back to your senses?! Ha?!"
"Ma! Stop it!"
"I won't stop until you understand she's not worth it!"
"She is Ma! She will always be! They will always be worth it!"
My mom then noticed Xie carrying my son na paakyat sa hagdan
"So that ungrateful btch is back? Kaya ba lalong wala ka na sa katinuan?! Ha?!"
"Ma! Stop it! I'm... I'm just spending my last month with her okay?! She wanted a divorce! I'm leaving! Okay?!"
"You're crazy"
"Maybe I am. But if that one month is all I have to be with my family. I'll risk everything just to spend it."
"Masasaktan ka lang ulit sa kanya River!"
"I know! And I don't give a damn if I do! Mahal ko si Xie okay?!"
"I don't know what to do with you anymore River. You're hopeless"
"Just leave, ma"

Beautiful Mistake
RomanceKasal kayo pero sa tuwing mananaginip siya pangalan ng ex niya binabanggit nito, and you hear his every plea everytime he says her name. May anak kayo pero sa tingin mo wala kayong halaga sa kanya dahil dito. You hear him say things he's never told...
