PICTCOM'S FIRST SPECIAL CHAPTER
THE UNFORGETTABLE TWENTY-SIX

Kyla Park Suarez
(P.O.V.)

"Ang bwakang inang shit. Inang hayupak ang thesis na ito. Sarap itapon sa ilog. Grr!" reklamo ko.

"Kyla, language! Narito ang anak ko!" saway sa akin ni Alex. Nang harapin ko siya ay walang pag-aatubli niya akong inirapan kaya bigla akong napatawa.

"Sungit mo naman, Miss!"

"Eh kasi—"

"Mommy Kyla, what's bwakang ina? Is that related to mother? 'Di po ba ang tagalog word ng ina is mother so what is the english of bwakang? Is that a whale? They're the same as balyena." nasamid ako sa sarili kong laway nang biglang nagsalita si Alessandra.

Unti-unti ko s'yang hinarap at dahan-dahang umiiwas sa matalim na tingin ni... alam n'yo na kung sino iyon.

I awkwardly smiled at the child in front of me while also trying to avoid her gaze. I do not know why I felt so intimidated by the way Alessandra looks at me. Maybe it's because of her precious green eyes which are very full of innocence and purity.

"Sweetie, it's a bad word." I kneeled down in front of her.

She gasped. "A BAD WORD?!" I giggled when she clasped both of her cheeks. Her mouth was formed into an "o" shape and her eyes were wide as plates. Cute so much! Sarap kurutin!

"Yes. A bad word." I said seriously and looked at her with a warning look. "So you better not copy me, okay?"

"I will never gaya gaya you! Mommy said you don't have talents so I should look up to my mama only! I'm loyal to mama!" my jaw dropped from what I heard. Rinig ko ang nanunuyang hagikgik ni Alex sa likod ko.

"Deserve." simpleng tugon ni Alex. Hindi ko siya masamaan ng tingin dahil paniguradong talo rin naman ako sa huli. Hmph!

"Don't idolize her, Sandra." I shook my head. Kumunot naman ang noo nung bata. "Did you know that she always avoided me at our university? Lagi niya akong tinataboy at pinapaiyak. Gusto ko lang naman ng atensyon niya pero ayaw n'ya sa'kin." I wiped my fake tears at yumuko para pumekeng hagulgol.

"What? Kyla, tumigil ka nga. Isa!"

"Mommy, is that true? Mommy Kyla is crying!" ngumiti ako at pinigilan ang sarili na maglabas ng tawa kahit aliw na aliw na ako sa nangyayaring sitwasyon.

"No, baby, it's not! D-don't listen to her!"

A moment later, I burst out laughing. Alessandra tilted her head in confusion at 'di ko na mapigilang na buhatin siya at paulit-ulit na hinalikan ang kanyang pisngi.

I met Alexandra Hyera Marquez two months ago. A woman who I thought was an egoistic, silent person who hates people, but was just misunderstood. She is devastated, angry, and broken.

I was once called a "playgirl" but that's not true when it comes to her. Pakiramdam ko ay mas pipiliin kong magtino para lang mahalin niya akong pabalik. Gagawin ko ang lahat upang mapasaya ko siya at ang kanyang anak.

I don't know this kind of feeling. I only entered relationships because I did not want my parents to enter me into some marriage arrangements just for the company.
