I woke up around 5 am, palagi talaga akong nauunang magising kaysa mag alarm ang phone ko... huh

Tumayo ako at bumaba for breakfast, i saw Mommy cooking for our breakfast and lunch.

Nakita ko rin si Ate Freya na nagbabasa habang kumakain.

"Oh gising na pala ang prinsesa ah." Bungad sa akin ni Mommy

For god's sake! Hindi lang ako naka hugas ng pinggan kahapon dahil masakit ang katawan ko tapos ganto ang ibubungad sa akin? Ang saya naman! Umagang umaga.

"Mommy, i will wash the dishes later." I replied

"Ay huwag na! Baka ma ano pa ang prinsesa namin. Ayan mag luto ka nang pagkain mo!" She handed me the spatula and sat down next to my ate.

Leaving me at my spot standing.

What? Hindi ako linutuan ng lunch at breakfast? Its fine...

Sanay na ako.

I grabbed 2 organic eggs and hotdogs sa ref and iprinito ko ito.

Yoon nalang ang naluto ko dahil malalate na ako kahit 5 30 am pa lamang.

"Ayan mag hugas ka." My Mom stated and shoved the sponge in my hand

"Ma akala ko ba hindi na?" I asked with a low voice

"Ano?! Ayan ang sinasabi ko eh! Ang tamad tamad mo tangina ka! Halika rito at maghugas ka"

"Ma.. Malalate na ho ako..." Saad ko

"Mahal! Hayaan mo na siya.. Let her be!" My Dad interrupted us

"Sasali kapa ha?" My Mom stated and throw the glass plate on the floor.

When i was a kid i expected that this family will be good, fantastic and happy.

But it turned out to be a hell living with them.

I always get burned by their tones, words and actions.

Noon ay muntik na akong nag pakamatay dahil sa asta nila sa akin.

"DON'T DIRESPECT ME LIKE THAT"
My Dad stated and umakyat na sa taas

"Tignan mo! Ha kasalanan mo ang lahat! Malas kang bata ka!" She pulled my hair and shoved it to the counter.

I felt my brain is about to explode.

"Ma! Tama na please" Saad ni ate Freya at hinila ako

"So siya na ang kinakampihan mo? Alam mo namang-" She stopped and realized something

I don't know what it was but oh well i don't fucking care.

Umakyat ako nang kuwarto at naligo.
Nagpalit ako, suot kona ang uniform ko at hindi kona hinintay sila Ate at Hugo papuntang school.
