Hiding His Daughter

CHAPTER 44

Jaiden didn't let the man pass kahit naka uwi na kami. Parang hindi sila naging mag kaibigan, ngunit naiintindihan ko naman si Jaiden. Christian did to me wasn't forgiveable.

Busy sila Mama sa pag organize para sa birthday ni Jaiena para bukas kaya hindi ko na lang sinabi ang nangyari sa resort.

Isang propesor ng Casa De Unibersidad nag ngangalang Christian Lee Lopez umanong tinangkang gahasahin ang anak ng mag-asawang Romanova see more...

Basa ko sa post, kalat na sa social media ang ginawa niya, pinaki usapan ko ang management ng resort at si Jaiden na hayaan na lang ngunit hindi sila pumayag. Nawalan siya ng lisensiya at makukulong ng pitong taon.

Bumuntong hininga ako at saka isinara ang laptop. Nasa bathroom si Jaiden habang si Jaiena ay tulog.

Nalaman ni Jaiden na alam din nila Tita Andrea na buhay ang anak namin ngunit sa pakiki usap ko na huwag sabihin ay nalaman niya kaya nagalit din siya kanila Tita Andrea, tatlong araw niya ring hindi pinansin ang magulang niya.

Napatalon ako sa gulat ng padabog na bumukas ang pinto at bumungad ang galit na mukha ni Papa. Ito ang kauna-unahang nakita kong galit ang mukha niya.

Galit siyang lumapit sa gawi ko at may kung anong ipinakita sa cellphone niya. Yung news about sa nangyari sa akin sa resort.

"What is this, huh? Why didn't you tell us about this?! If I didn't get email about you almost getting raped, I wouldn't know what happened to you!" pasigaw niyang sabi. Tumayo ako. Kahit si Jaiden ay lumabas sa bathroom.

Nasa likod niya si Mama na dismayadong nakatingin sa akin habang nasa likod niya sila Tita Andrea.

"Pa, let's not shout, please. Jaiena might wake up, let's calm down, please..." saad ko.

He looked at my daughter then to me. His eyes are now bloodshot. "How can I calm down when my daughter almost got r-raped?! You almost... Eliana... Now tell me, Eliana, how?!" hirap niyang sabi.

Nagsimula akong matakot dahil sa naalala ang nangyari.

"Pa, please," I said, my voice shaking. "It's okay now. I'm safe. Jaiden saved me."

"Saved you?" Papa scoffed, his voice laced with anger. "What kind of saving is that? Why didn't you call us? Why didn't you tell us what happened?"

"Pa, please," I pleaded, my eyes welling up with tears. "I was scared. I didn't know what to do. I was so shocked. I didn't want to worry you."

"Worry me?" Papa said, his voice rising. "You think this is just a little worry? This is a nightmare! You could have been hurt! You could have been..."

He stopped himself, his voice cracking with emotion. He looked at me, his eyes filled with a mixture of anger and fear.

"Eliana, please," he said, his voice softening. "Tell me what happened. Tell me everything."

Sinenyasan ko si Easton kasalukuyan na nasa likod ni Mama na kunin si Jaiena na tulog pa rin. Nang masiguradong nakalabas na sila ay hinarap ko si Papa.

"Pa, ayaw ko lang maging pabigat at pag alalahin kayo." saad ko. Mama looked at me in disbelief.

"Are you serious, Eliana? Worry? Burden? You are our daughter... Mag aalala talaga kami kung may nangyari sayong masama." sagot niya.

Umiling si Mama. "You've never tell us what's your problem, somethings bothering you or you are sick... You always keep it to yourself. Why can't you trust us?" sabad ni Mama.

Lumunok ako dahil may kung anong nakabara sa lalamunan ko. "I am not a teenager anymore. I have a daughter now, I am twenty five," sagot ko.

"What about it? I don't care how old you are or you have a daughter... You are our daughter too, you are our responsibility, hanggat nabubuhay ka, nabubuhay kami responsibilidad ka namin." umiiyak na sambit ni Papa. Kinagat ko ang labi upang pigilan ang hikbi.
