A.K.A Miss Bitterness (Ako na ang Single)

Third Parties

How does it feel to be broken? What will you become after breakup? How will you cope up? What are the things that you will find new? And mostly how will you forget? I been through that, or maybe I'm still going after that. Some may think that it's pitiful that I can't forget. Paki nyo eh matagal ako mag move on talaga. I am not sure if I'm still hoping as well. I've done too much hoping in my life at walang naidulot na maganda. I remember when my mother hopes to see my dad coming home with his luggage and expecting him to say that he have change. It was rough, her mother was her unfinished business. She might not have realized it. But her mother went through her advises too. Then he meet the Cactus Man and I think she's doing fine except for the fact na I dunno I don't like him.

'Ma'am andyan na ang daddy mo.' I don't know how they will be able to stand each other but wala akong paki. Tomorrow is my graduation day and it's time na makita nila ang pinag hirapan nila. Ofcourse pinag hirapan ko. Halos mamatay ako kakaaral eh. Tapos wala man lang audience pag nag graduate ako right!! I mean wtf?

What happened later on was unexpected. 

So Dad was right there, yes. But so as my soon to be step father. Medyo ako pa na awkward para sa kanila. I found them shaking there hands nang naabutan ko sila sa Salas. Ewwwww.  I never thought na magaling makipag plastikan ang daddy ko, but yeah he actually pulled it off. He was looking at Mr. Cactus Man as if he was the most desirable. He was giving me that breezy look too. Che! Buwisit!  I gave him the 'wag-tigilan-mo-ako-di-ka-gwapo-look'.  He was enjoying my shock face more than ever. Grrrrr. Nakakaasar. Well I know he doesn't have anything for may mom anymore and it's fine that he acts like that, but I don't really feel that this is a normal family at all. As for my mother, feeling nya ang haba ng buhok nya because of the attention that she's getting from my father and sa pagiging possessive ni Cactus. She have changed a lot, since dad left us. Dati she cannot even look at dad without crying, without being angry. But now she can laugh with him like nothing ever happened. Seeing her would actually make you believe that scars fade, well she know better. 

'What time it is Reb?' my dad suddenly ask. 

'Around 10? Sabi nang tyan ko' painis kong sagot.  

'Well siguro naligaw si tita mo. She will join us mamaya' her dad said. 

'Tita who?' she raised her brows.

'Tita mo? Asawa ko?'

My mom laugh. 

'Ano ka ba nag asawa ang tatay mo diba?' Woooh! Bitter butter!!

Oo naman no. Nainform kaya ako. My dad feels off by that time.

It would be my first time seeing her step-mom and actually she doesn't know how will the bitchin her will react.  Hay grabe, outsider na talaga ako, buti pa parents nya may love life, eh sya? 

Then the door swung open, her step mother came into view akala nya mashoshock sya sa step mother nya. Mas masa'shock pala sya sa kapatid nya. 

WTF why do we look the same? Eh kung sa bagay baka nga nman kasi magkapatid sila. Except for the eyes. She stares at her. Well she hate her little sister immediately. She know it sounds childish, but she does. She wanted to cry na hindi nya mainitindihan, especially when she ran to her dad. MY DAD! Something she didn't get every time she needs her dad. Her yaya might have sense the tension building inside her.

'Sir malalate na kayo.' with feelings and they finally felt the sense of urgency. Her yaya gave her a kiss on a cheek before she pass right through. Imagine na lang ilangtaon din ako nag inarte sa kanya, ilang beses ko ba sya pinahirapan kasi di ko alam ang gusto kong kainin, ilang gabi ko ba sya ginising sa mga kasadsaran ng Thesis ko kasi nagugutom ako. Pero ngayon ggraduate na ako. I hug her back. 

She followed her parents with their partners. They were holding hands. Ok na sana, kaya lng sya wala eh.. ashhhaaaar!! Mag kaka jowa din talaga ko promise. Tapos isasama ko sa lahat ng lakad. kahit bibili lng cotton buds!

Next thing she knew nakasakay na din sya sa van na very suffocating at maraming nagliparang puso. Buwisit. Yung parang gusto mong kumuha ng Baygon para maubos silang lahat.

Ang lakas nya talaga maka third wheel at ang lakas nilang makapanira ng mood.
