Chapter 13
Death Threats
Zynie POV
The offer that Elliot give me keep running into my mind. It keeps pestering my mind. If I accept, it means I betray Darius and that will result in our break up, but that the chance of knowing my mother's secret. God!
Palagi akong kinukulit ni Elliot. Lumipas ang linggo hindi pa ako nakapag desisyon.
One day nakapagdesisyon na ako. I will not accept the offer, it is so risky when I accept it.
“Elliot," bungad ko sa tawag namin. He call in the middle of the evening.
“May desisyon kana Zynie? Diba sinabi ko isang araw lang ang hinihingi ko para makapagdesisyon kana? But I will give a chance,” he said on the other line, his voice is stern and sends shiver in my spine.
“Sorry. Ang hirap kasi mag desisyon. Mga mahal ko sa buhay ang nakataya,” my voice broke.
“None of my business. So?"
“Why are you doing this."
“Thats none of your business Zynie. Now tell me your decision."
“I'm not."
Tumawa siya sa kabilang linya. “Really."
“I'm sorry but hindi ko iyang tatanggapin. Pwede ko namang tanungin si Mama tungkol diyan. Simple. Ingat ka Elliot isusumbong kita kay Darius. You betrayed him."
After that, I end our call. Tama na. My decision is final and right.
Kinabukasan, maaga akong gumising para tanungin si Mama doon but when I arrive at the sala I saw Mama crying. Dali dali akong tumakbo papunta sa kaniya.
“Ma! Okay ka lang ba?" nag-alalang tanong ko.
She keeps crying. Natakot ako. Why?
“Anak. Your Tita Shiela have an accident kaninang ala una. Patay na siya.”
"Ano!”
Tita Shiela is a good person. Kahit hindi kami close naawa parin ako. Ano nang mangyayari sa mga anak niya! Kay Tito!
"Malala ang pagkabangga. A truck hit him.”
"Si Tita lang ang nakasakay sa kotse?”
"Oo.”
Buti nalang hindi ang buong pamilya.
I took care of Mama. Pumunta kami sa hospital. Wala akong time na tanungin si Mama tungkol kay Papa. She need me. Alam kung hindi namin kadugo si Tita but Tita Shiela is so important to Mama.
Nung nakatulog na si Mama ay nag beep ang cellphone ko. It was Darius.
BigBaby: Baby, sorry hindi ako nakapagpaalam. Mom send me here in states para safe daw ako. I receive many death threats.
He receive death threats?! Damn. Tita Amina was so scared right now. Nag iisang anak niya si Darius. I understand.
Baby: It's okay. I understand Tita. Take care. I love you. See you!
BigBaby: Okay. Ikaw rin. Nabalitaan ko na namatay yung relatives mo. Bye na po. The plane will take off na.
Baby: Okay. Love you soooo muchhh😘😘😘😘
BigBaby: I love you more! Take care baby.
Si Mama ang nag asikaso sa lamay. Naawa ako sa mga anak niya. Like me, naranasan ko rin yan. Nang namatay si Papa. Tinulungan ko si Mama kaya pagod na pagod ako. I wonder what my baby doing right now. Sana safe siya.
