Author's POV
Bumalik na si Jade at Althea sa bahay nila Jade.
Agad naman silang sinalubong nila Dada at ng mga kuya nya.
"Where have you been?" Tanong agad ni ahia Gab.
"Ahia, wag mo ng alamin baka di mo kakayanin." Paul teases and gave a smug look on him.
"Kanina pa kayong dalawa ha." Komento ni dada.
Jade just smiled and she didn't failed to notice the woman behind them that make her smile gone. Agad naman nila napansin yung tingin at yung pagkawala nung ngiti ni Jade.
.
.
.
"Ahhmm anak, si Amanda...mama mo." Dada introduce and all of them look at her, Amanda as she smiles at Jade.
.
.
.
.
.
"No" Jade uttered and look away.
"Jade" Althea almost whisper the name with a pang of concern in her voice because she knows Jade would act like this.
"Shobe" confused as well as concerned.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
"No, she is not my mother." Jade said it to them and look at "her" mother's direction.
.
.
.
.
"She will never be."
Nawala na talaga ng tuluyan yung ngiti ni Amanda. Naging tensyonado na rin yung paligid nila na para bang isang galaw ay magkakaroon ng isang world war.
Althea still holding the hand of Jade.
"Shobe, wha--" Gab tried to speak.
"Ahia, what are you trying explain to me? Di naman ikaw yung may kasalanan." She calmly said it that makes the tension heavier.
"But--" tinakpan na ni Paul ang bibig ni Gab at pinandilatan ito ng mata para tumahimik.
Amanda tried to walk towards Jade and others.
.
.
.
.
"Don't even try to go near me or you'll don't gonna like what I'm going to do with you." Jade threatened Amanda.
Amanda halted. Instead of a sweet longing eyes, she saw angst in her eyes. It pains to see how angry her daughter now that they met. Then she turn to Oscar and glared at him.
"THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!!!" Amanda shouted and tried to slap Oscar.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Pak!
.
.
.
.
.
"Jade!!" Althea called suddenly, she didn't noticed that Jade let go of her hand.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
"HOW DARE YOU TO BLAME MY FATHER?!" Jade rage against Amanda. "ANG KAPAL NG MUKHANG MONG SISIHIN SI DADA SA MGA KASALANAN MO!! YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO BLAME HIM OR EVEN BE HERE. IF THERE IS ANYONE THAT SHOULD BE BLAME HERE, IT IS YOU. DON'T EVER HURT MY FAMILY!!" Jade burst out her anger.
.
.
.
.
"Jade, I'm you're mother!! I'm you're family too." Amanda raised her voice.
.
.
.
.
"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? PAMILYA? ARE YOU KIDDING? DO YOU CONSIDER YOURSELF BEING PART OF THIS FAMILY WHEN EVEN THE FIRST PLACE YOU LEFT THIS A LONG TIME AGO.. THEN YOU'RE CLAIMING THAT YOU'RE MY MOTHER? THAT'S BULLSH*T! YOU JUST GAVE BIRTH TO ME, well I thank you for that, BUT BE MY MOTHER? YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN MY MOTHER AND NEVER WILL BE...MAS GUGUSTUHIN KO PA NA PATAY KA NA KESA SA MALAMAN NA INIWAN MO ANG PAMILYANG ITO PARA SA ANUMANG RASON MO!!" Jade blurt out her feelings hidden in her heart for this past hour then she walked away.
Naiwang tulala lima habang pinapanood si Jade na mawala sa kanilang harapan.
"Ako na po ang bahala kay Jade." Althea immediately offered.
"Sige hija, salamat." Oscar answered.
"No worries po, sige po." She looked at Amanda. "Pasensya na po, I know Jade didn't mean those. Give her time." Althea gave a encouraging smile.
"I understand." Amanda replied and nod.
Umalis na si Althea at hinabol si Jade kung saan man ito napunta ngayon.
Althea tried calling her but Jade left her phone at her car.
"Crap. Jade, saan ka ba? Iniwan mo pa yung phone mo.." Irritiated same as worried voice of Althea.
Althea calmed herself and massage her temple. She's trying to think of the possible places where Jade can be.
'Di naman yung pwedeng umalis kasi nandito pa naman yung sasakyanan nya at di rin yun lumabas kasi wala namang napansin yung guard nila na lumabas siya.' Althea analyzed.
Althea remebered something at pinuntahan iyon. And tama nga siya, nandun nga si Jade. Nakatulala lang sya habang nakaupo dun.
Nalulungkot siya habang pinapanood niya si Jade. Kung pwede lang sana na matulungan niya si Jade na mapagaan ang nararamdaman nito pero maski siya ay hindi alam kung paano niya gagawin iyon.
'Basta't nandyan ka lang sa tabi niya matutulungan mo na siya. Ngayon ka niya kailangan kaya damayan mo siya at palakasin ang loob niya' Althea said to herself.
"Jade" she called.
Jade immediately run to her and wrapped her arms to Althea. Jade knew that Althea is all that she needs right now. She cried while hugging Althea. She again outburst her emotions to someone.
Althea comfort her without saying a word because she also knew that Jade needs her now. She just let Jade cry in her arms.
It gives so much ache for Althea to watch her beloved cry in pain but she thinks that what Jade needs.
