CHAPTER 12

CHAPTER 12

"Mommy! I saw Daddy earlier! At the park!" Hinihingal na lumapit siya sa akin nang bago lang siyang dating galing sa pinuntahan niya kasama ang kanyang mga kaibigan.

"Knox, huminahon ka nga." Payo ko sa kanya at hinaplos ang kanyang buhok. "Ano ang sinasabi mo? I can't understand what you're saying."

He inhales and exhales. "Ganito kasi 'yan, Mommy," he exhaled again.

"I saw my Daddy earlier at the park, Mommy. He's here! He's here!" My eyes widened. What is he saying?

"K-knox, nagkamali kalang siguro ng hinala?" I tapped his shoulder pero hinawi niya lang iyun at nagpumilit na nakita nya talaga ang kaniyang ama.

"Mommy, please can we go back to him? I really, really miss him. And you know, Mommy? He's so kind. Those children are there..." My lips parted and trembled.

"Knox..." I started, my voice catching in my throat. I couldn't tell him what had happened in the last three years. "Your dad is.."

Umiling siya at niyakap lamang ako.
"Mommy, he was so very kind. And you know what mommy? Hindi ko pa siya nakakalimutan simula nung humiwalay tayo sa kaniya." Naramdaman kong bigla nalang bumigat ang aking dibdib.

Hindi ko masisisi si Knox kung bakit hindi niya makalimutan ang ama niya pero.. Paano naman ako? What if meron na palang binabahay si Darcker?

"Knox... May iba ng asawa si Daddy mo.." My voice was shaking kaya diko mapigilan na mautal.

"W-what?" His eyes welled up, blurring with tears.

"Sorry to didn't tell you about this." I bit my lower lips when his tears fall down to his cheeks.

I hugged him close, stroking his hair gently.
Hindi ko maisip na kaya nya palang kamuhian ang ama kapag may ganito siyang salita na narinig.

Napakagat ako sa aking labi nang naisip ko iyun. Nandon siya sa kaniyang kwarto, Hindi ko pa dinadalaw kasi natutulog.

But as I was about to enter his room, I was startled to see my son crying.

"Baby," lumapit at niyakap ko siya. "Sorry for not letting you know about your dad.."

I said as I caress his hair. "Sorry," I kiss his head.

Hindi parin humihinto sa pag-iyak ang aking anak habang yakap ko.

"As I remembered... I was calling him 3 years ago and... I heard something them. They are.. Ahm I can't tell this to you kasi bata kapa pero malalaman mo rin ito pagkalaki mo, anak." Hinaplos ko ulit ang kaniyang buhok. "Sabi sakin ni tito Lucifer mo, may nililigawan na si Daddy mo and I was hurt about that, baby. Do you know how much it hurts your Mom?" I asked, my voice cracking.

"H-how?"

"Para siyang sinaksak ng kutsilyo ng limang daan na beses, anak. And of course it hurts so much." Isang butil na luha ang tumulo sa aking mata. I wipe it para hindi mahalata ni Knox na umiiyak ako.

"But don't hold anger towards your father, okay, anak? It's bad, and you know, everyone makes mistakes." Hindi siya sumagot at nanatiling tahimik.

Nakatulog kaming dalawa na magkatabi. Nang magising sa umaga, ay agad akong nag asikaso para makapunta na ng opisina at makapagtrabaho na.

Ibinilin ko si Knox sa kakilala ko, and soon as possible kukuha na ako ng maid para bantayan ang anak ko, I won't let Darcker to touch my son. Not ever.

"Ma'am, ilan po ba ang sweldo ko if I take good care of Knox?" Tanong ng babae sa harap ko. Ito ang sinasabi sakin ng empleyado ko na ito daw ang papasok bilang maid sa aking anak.
