MY ENDLESS LOVE(PORDEE STORY the Continuation)

CHAPTER 48 - TRY

MICHELLE SEV

"It's late now, we have to sleep first before we can talk tomorow." sabi niya kay Anntonnia na nakamasid na ngayon sa buong kabahayan.

"Anntonnia." tawag niya dito.

Tumingin ito sa akin saglit at kinuha ang isang picture frame na kuha pa nung baby pa siya.

"I didn't know that you have this huge Mansion and you said your grandfather is residing in US." pahayag nito.

Bumuntung hininga ako. "Tsk. My Grandpa that you saw tonight is my Mom's father while in the other hand, my grandpa in US is my Dad's. My Mom's has been rejected by him when She disobeyed her arrange marriage. And that's the time we reside in US where my Granpa's. We just go back a few a years ago here when my Grandma died. And she tries to reconcile with Grandpa. We stay here months but then something happens that they fights and then we go back in US again. Unfortunately something happens again, that is why my Dad decides to go back here and stay for good. Since my Mom and Grandpa's is not good in terms that is why Dad buy a house and that's where you know our house. And importantly, Im not a rich here, it's my Grandpa's. This pictures reminds me of him, when she tries to ask my Mom to leave me here." sabi niya at hinawakan ang picture niya nung bata pa siya.

"Hmmm..."sagot lang ni Anntonnia.

Napansin niyang nakatitig ito sa Family picture nila. Noong okay pa ang pamilya niya with Grandpa's.

"That was taken during my 5th birthday. I was even ashamed to participatd because my friends used to bully me. I'm always told I'm skinny, have no eyes and many more." kwento niya.

"Your eyes..you didn't inherit your features from your father. Look at these pictures. Is this your brother? You have a resemblance but not too much. Even Mommy Mel."

May kung anong humaplos sa puso niya na marinig dito na Mommy pa rin ang tawag nito sa Mommy ko.

Pero nacurious ako sa sinasabi nitong hindi ko daw kamukha parehas ang magulang ko.

"Anyway, we can talk now Michelle. I can't wait for tomorrow. You know why."

Bumuntung hininga siya. "I-ahh--"

Bigla siya nitong pinigilan sa pagsasalita. "Wait are you drunk??"

Hindi naman maipinta ang mukha niya. At gusto niya itong irapan pero hindi na lang niya ginawa.

"Ugh. Never mind." sabay bawi nito. "I'll have a shower first."

"Okay. Follow me." sabi ko dito at iginiya sa loob ng elevator. Tinatamad naman kasi siyang umakyat ng hagdan. Pagod at puyat, yun ang nararamdaman niya.

Namangha naman ito sa nakita. Na para bang first time nitong makakita ng elevator sa loob ng bahay.

Pagdating ng 3rd floor ay iginiya niya ito sa isang silid.

"I'll come to see you later. There is a complete toletries already there." sabi ko dito at umalis na ako.

Pagdating sa kabilang kwarto ay tinawagan niya ang isang taong mapapagkatiwalaan sa ganitong klase ng problema. Hindi na siya makapaghintay ng umaga.

Matagal bago siya nito sinagot.

"I have Anntonnia here, no worries. But it's John, I think He needs to save right now. I don't think if He can make it if he stayed there any longer. Even if I say I don't like him, my conscience can't handle it. And Ms. Mira, thank you for saving me that night. " sabi ko dito.

"Yes, we're already in monitor. But still you have to be careful, one of my men sent a news that they ransack your house. On the way na rin yung iba doon. Anyway, welcome. You saved my daughter then we call it quits."
