Trapped In His Melanchony

Side Story 4

On their wedding day...Levi and Addison are the happiest. Walang pantay ang saya nila at sa wakas nakasal ulit sila. Sa dami ng naranasang nilang hindi pagkakaunawan, humantong pa rin sila sa kasalan.

Levi and Addi was talking with his friends when he saw sa very familiar face from afar, like its having a sneak peak to the current event.

Parang piniga ang puso niya sa kaba nang mapagtantong mommy niya pala ito at maluha luhang nginingitian siya.

Nilingon niya ang asawa na katabi lang niyang nakatayo at tila ito rin ang napansin ang mommy niya. Inspite of that, she still smiled at him. She don't wanna ruin the mood.

"Ask her to come."

"Are you okay?"

"She's your mom, Levi. Of course." hinawakan ni Addi ng mahigpit ang kamay nito sabay hinila ang asawa palapit sa mommy niya.

Maluluha na rin si Levi pero pinipigilan niya lang. Until now, his heart is aching of how his parents manipulated everything. His life, his mentality. Ayaw na niyang makialam pa ito sa pagbuo niya ng pamilya.

"Papa!! Mama!!" his eyes narrowed to Elvi as the kid running towards them.

His son....No.. No matter what will happen, Elvi and his other two children will not gonna experience the same as they grow. He promise to love them. To protect them.

"Come, Elvi! Fast! Hehe"

Look at her wife. Although she did her best to hide their son from them, she still didn't want to close the door to hold their son's hand to see the one of the person who used to be a threat to them. How could she deserve such woman? He's just so lucky.

"Levi. It's okay. I'm here."

Levi nodded to her and continue to walk closer to his mother. Kinarga niya muna si Elvi bago ito makalapit sa mommy niya.

"Levi, Addi" she called her and she's indeed in tears. Basang basa ang mukha at pula ang nga mata. "Don't worry, I'll leave right away. I just wanna congratulate you both." tapos tinuon nito ang atensyon sa tahimik na si Elvi. She reached to held his hand at hindi naman siya pinigilan ng mga ito. "Who's here?"

"He's Elvi. My eldest." Levi answered with his low toned voice.

"Elvi say hi to gradma."

Silang tatlo ay nakatuon lang ang atensyon sa tahimik na si Elvi, kagat kagat ang daliri nito.

"He...lloo. Grama"

Addi and Mrs. Ackerman chuckled but Levi, his tears fell like rainfall, then he kissed his son on the cheek really hard and deep. He couldn't help kundi ang panggigilan ito.

"You are....exactly like your father when he was little." then she stepped closer to hug Levi and Elvi. Sabay hinalikan ang pisngi ng anak.

Tapos ay kay Addi naman ito yumakap, sabay hinagod hagod ang likod nito. ？

"You are so beautiful."

"Thank you, ma."

Sinapo niya ang mukha ni Addi at umiiyak paring nakangiti. "Maging masaya kayo sa habangbuhay, Addi, Levi. Alam kong magiging mabuti kayong mga magulang sa mga anak niyo."

"Levi. Levi?"

"Levi!"

Nagising siya sa tawag ni Addison sa kanya na ngayo'y sapo sapo ang tiyan at hindi maitsura ang mukha.

"Addi! What happened?"

"It's...aching! My tummy!"
