The Wife Of Forgotten

Chapter 5

Chapter 5

I walk through our hallway. Mom call me recently, she says she need me asap. What would I expected? I'm sure this is all about arrangement. They just stick to there plan. I always say to myself that I don't need husband to get my company bigger and bigger. Tss. Kaya ko iyon, kahit wala ang pag aasawa.

It's almost three days since I walk out to my house and I don't even talk to them. Hah, and why would I do that to talk to them? Actually that's my house, ako ang may legal na mag pa alis sa kanila dahil bahay ko iyon but... I still respect them, they still my family not otherwise.

When Mommy's Body guard saw me, he bowed. I stopped but I didn't bother to speak. Taas noo ko itong nilagpasan at tuloy sa pag lalakad, even my red stilletos echoed to her whole mansion. Dito pa rin naman ako lumaki, so I'm legally part of this Mansion.

I stop walking when I saw her sipping her tea peacefully to her favourite couch. When she sense my presence lumingon ito sa akin. Her eyes getting big when she saw me. Nilapag niya ang tea niya sa maliit niyang platito at may pag mamadaling lumapit sa akin. She open her arms just to welcome me, while I gave her a poker face.

“Oh! My daughter come to Mommy.” She hugged me. I didn't hug her back. I still stick to my poker face.

Humiwalay siya sa pag yakap sa akin. She holding my two elbow now using her two hands. While looking at me.. like she admire my entire face or some dirt to my face.

She genuinely smiled. “My daughter is Indeed beautiful.”

“Bakit parang paganda ng paganda ka ata sa bawat pag lipas ng panahon, huh?” aniya.

She carassed my left cheek like she's looking for something. “Who's your derma? Can I talk to her? I just want my skin looks flawless like—”

I remove her hand to my cheek. “Oh come on Mom. This is my natural skin.” I hissed. “And I don't do check up for my skin. And can you please stop praise me like I'm the most goddess in your eye—”

“But it's true, Darling!” dag-dag niya. I rolled my eyes at her.

“Just straight me Mom, I have so many things to do. Siningit ko lang ito sa schedule ko. Because I thought... this is so important to you, right?” sabi ko. Muntik pa akong mapa irap ulit sa huling kong sinabi.

Nalungkot siya sa sinabi ko. “Gano'n kana ba ka busy, ihija? You don't have time for—”

“That's not what I mean, Mom.” And this time I rolled my eyes again.

Napabuntong hininga ito. “Anak... Didiretsahin na kita.” pinagkatitigan ako sa mga mata at para bang nag susumamo na sana makinig naman ako sa mga sasabihin niya. “Gusto ko lang sabihin sa iyo.. ang tungkol sa arrangement ng kasal mo.” I deeply breath when I heard her last said.

“Alam kong mahirap.. pero para kay, Mommy, pag bigyan mo naman siya, huh?” nagsusumamo itong nakatingin sa akin. “Para naman sa ikabubuti mo ito, hindi naman ito para sa amin.” wika niya. Nanatili pa rin siyang nakahawak sa dalawa kong siko.

Mapakla akong natawa dahil sa sinabi niya. “Mommy, lagi ko naman kayong sinusunod at pinag bibigyan.” ani ko. Mahihimigan roon ang sakit na nararamdaman ko. “It is not enough, huh? Since I was a kid I always obey you... Wala akong hindi sinunod dahil ni rerespeto kita!”

She shock when I shouted at her ngunit nawala rin naman iyon kinalaunan. Nag baba ito ng tingin habang umiiling-umiiling. Sakit ang mababatid sa kaniyang mukha.

“You don't understand—”

“Paano ko maiintindihan kong kayo pa lang hindi niyo na ipinapaintindi sa akin?!” nag uunahang dumaloy ang mga luha ko sa pisnge. “Huh? Handa naman ako, eh. I'm not Idiot, katulad ng iniisip niyo—”
