Wishing you mine

CHAPTER THREE

you can left me...but it will never be forgotten

a simple day ends, morning came and today is my birthday, hoping for mom to greet me.

"good morning luna, happy birthday!!" dad greeted me through video call.

"dad, i wish you, mom, nica, and ate lanna was here, i miss having my birthday party with all of you po"

"im sorry baby, babawi si daddy sayo okay?"  i heard the door opened hoping that it was mom, but to my surprise she's with nica..

"dad, mom and nica's here!!" 

"good to hear, btw i need to go, i have something to do pa e babye, baby." dad kissed the screen and i do the same

"babye po daddy, i love you too po."

i ended the call and run towards them and hugged nica tightly

"nica!! Im glad your here, im happy we could celebrate our birthday again!!" bahagya itong lumayo saakin na animoy nandidiri

"ew, mom. a killer hugged me"

"w-what are you talking about?" asked her, what killer? I didn't kill someone.

"i know what you did to ate lanna, mom told me everything! you're the reason why ate lanna died, so your a killer"

"m-mom, i didnt... n-nica, please listen, i-i didn't killed ate lanna, it was an accident"

"no! you killed her, kung hindi mo na sana sya pinilit sana buhay pa sya hanggang ngayon!!!

"n-no it was an- an accident"

"love, here's your things paki check nga kung completo na to"

"w-who is he mom? why he called you love, mom! who is he?!"

"excuse me, the nerve of you! you didn't have the rights to shout at me, ang kapal ng mukha mong mag taas ng boses saken, ano bang Ipinagmamalaki mo? wala kang utang na loob" after she said those words in front of everyone she just leave and walk towards the kitchen.

run to my room and slummed the door. did she replace dad? ang sabi nya dalawang linggo lang syang wala? pero bakit may bago na si mommy? ramdam ko ang nag babadyang luha sa mga mata ko.... nakakapagod na. ang hirap ng pinapagawa mo ate....

"luna.... hindi ka pa ba lalabas?" rinig ko ang pag bukas ng pinto ng kuwarto, at ang papalapit na mga yapak, its obviously naya.

"ilang oras ka nang nandito, hindli ka pa ba nagugutom— "

"naya" i cried

"naya, bakit ganon? did daddy abandoned me? ang sabi nya two weeks lang sya doon? bakit may kasamang iba sila nica and naya he called mommy, love, what does it mean?"

"luna, alam mo, naguguluhan ka lang ngayon. pero balang araw maiintindihan mo din lahat hah?"

"naya. I can't handle this, wala na si ate lanna, tapos si daddy umalis na po, naya i can't take it anymore it, hurts a lot po"

"Shhh... ok lang yan nandito si naya, hmm

I hear naya sniff is she cryng too? "h-halika na nga kumakain na sila doon baka gutom kana-"

" i don't want to go , naya natatakot po ako sa kanila" she sigh...

"ok, dito kalang babalik si naya"  right after she said that umalis na sya... habang ako naiwang nakatulala dito sa loob ng kwarto. it was our birthday today, but it seems like only nica can celebrate it.
