Juno POV
5 years ago
"Have you decided on what course you will pursue?" I was busy playing with my guitar when my dad barged into my room without even knocking. "No." I firmly said. Ever since my mom died everything change. It's like my life was drifting like a wind. I cannot fully accept these changes I've experienced. "It's fine, any course is eligible in law school. Take your time, Juno." What? Law school? I never want to be a lawyer in the first place.
What does he think he is?
"I'm not going to law school nor take any law-related course or elective, Dad."
"When did you become this ungrateful?" I know how pissed he is.
I smirked. "I will be a doctor, I'll be like what mom wants me to be." I shut him out.
"Your mother isn't here, and so as her dreams, Juno. Wake up! Ako nalang ang andito para sayo. We're your family." I bitterly laughed at him. How funny this man is? "You took me from my family, you took me from my mother, and kahit nung namatay siya ay wala 'man lang ako sa tabi niya, and it was all because of you!" I remember how my childhood crumbled when this man took me away from my mother. And now she's dead.
"Do whatever you want, you will never get any help from me. You're on your own now."
and he shut the door.
That was the worst day ever in my whole life. I felt alone and sad. I wanna go back to the orphanage, I want to go back in my mother's arms.
I was such an achiever when I was a kid. I thought we were a happy family until my mother learned that he had another family. It tears her apart knowing that she is the mistress of a dirty politician. And there we left that big house and started living in the orphanage where I met some great friends. I thought it was a fresh start that I sacrificed my career as a musician for it, but no.
It wasn't and it ruined me.
A few years later I was taken by my father and started living with his perfect family. I have two older siblings and they weren't as welcoming as my friends in the orphanage but my stepmother is so pure and genuine that I felt safe and sound around her. She treated me as her own and never let me be bullied by my siblings. But of course, I always longed for my real mother. In the first three months, she visited me not until years passed by. I kept waiting and waiting but she didn't come.
I didn't hear anything from her at that moment. As if she's gone in my life.
