Chapter 44: No clues

" Anak, hindi ka uuwi dito? Weekend naman eh. Namimiss na kita." My Dad said on the others line.

" I can't, Dad...I'm overload po. Maybe tomorrow? We can see each other? Let's go to church." I said while making myself a coffee.

I heard his sighed. " Okay, anak. Your Mom missed you, too."

Lies.

" Bye, Dad. I love you and please take care. " I said dodging what he said.

" Bye. I love you too, anak. Please always take care of yourself ha?" That made me smile.

" Yes, Dad. " I said and ended the call.

Napatitig ako saglit sa cellphone ko.

I remembered that I never step my feet inside our house from that moment. I never dare to see her too. It was too painful for me.

That day...my Dad successfully convinced her to celebrate with us but I never dared to even look at her.

Not even a glimpse. Because I was a glimpse of her mistake. Fair enough.

She even have the guts to greet me happy birthday when in fact she was not happy to have me as her daughter.

From that moment, I started hating my birthday too.

I accepted the fact na kahit kelan hindi ako matatanggap ni Mommy bilang anak nila ni Dad. I stop proving myself to her. Proving my worth.

" Bakit ka ba nandito?" I annoyingly asked my friend, Tiffany dahil bigla nalang sumulpot dito sa Penthouse ko.

Walang ganang umupo siya sa couch and hug the throw pillow. Ang lungkot din ng mukha niya kaya alam kong may problema siya. I sighed.

" What happened?" I asked her and crossed my arms.

" She rejected me." She bit her lower lip.

" Who?" She nodded her head thrice habang yakap parin ang throw pillow at nakanguso na.

" Sino pa edi si Kadynce!" She pouted.

" You confessed?"

" Sabi ko happy crush lang pero hindi na ako happy. Ang sakit." Then I saw tears streaming through her eyes kaya umupo ako sa tabi and didn't say anything.

" Ang assuming ko kasi. " Instead na maawa ay natawa ako sa sinabi niya kaya sinamaan niya ako ng tingin. " Mamatay ka kapag tumawa ka."

I bit my lower lip suppressing my laugh. Thank God I succeed.

" What did she says?"I asked.

Napanguso siya nang maalala ang sinabi nito.

" Sabi niya ' I'm sorry that my actions confused you. I'm genuinely kind towards you, Prof Tiffany ' basta meron pa. Bwisit kasi ako, nag-assume agad. "

I bit my point finger controlling myself to laugh at her misery. I maintain my deadpan look but deep inside I'm laughing at this bitch.

" First time mong magkagusto, pero di ka gusto. " I said remembering how she teased me.

Mas lalo tuloy siyang napasimangot. " Best assumera award kana." I added.

" Fvcking stop, bitch. 'Di kana nakakatuwa." She rolled her eyes at me.

" Sa lahat ba naman kasi ng pwede mong magustuhan si Kadynce pa. You knew she has high standards. "

" Wow ha so hindi ako pang-standard?" Inis na sabi nito saakin. Umuusok na ang ilong sa galit.
" Si Thea din naman, sa lahat ng nagkakagusto sakanya, sa student niya rin siya nagkagusto."
