Attached To A Bad Girl

Kabanata 2

Im not that bad

"Lucy,  how did you get that name?" tanong sa akin ng kalaro ko

"what name? " sagot ko naman at tsaka ipinagpatuloy ang paglalaro ng monopoly

"Weird name,  your first name was like angel then your second name sounds dark" sabi nya sabay hulog ng dice

" That Angelica,  I got it from my lolo and lola.  Their names are Angelita and Caldron " I smiled

"what about the second one? "

"It came from my dad and moms name,  Jenifer and Lucio"

Ipinagpatuloy namin ang paglalaro ng monopoly.  Habang naglalaro kami ay dumating na ang kuya ko.  He's from school,  he looks tired. 

"Kuya lufer! " bati ko sabay ngiti

"Hi there angel" yes, angel ang tawag ni kuya sa akin.  He's only the one calling me by that nickname

Umakyat na si kuya papuntang kwarto nya. Maya maya ay narinig kong may nagdoorbell,  it was Julio's mommy,  uuwi na daw sya.

Umuwi na si Julio and I was here all alone playing monopoly by myself.

Maya-maya I heard noises coming from our garden.  I slowly walk into the garden to see whats happening or who are those making noise.

I saw mommy and daddy.  Fighting

"You're such a liar Lucio! " mom shouted

"Im not! And maybe if I,  I wont tell you this now! " dad replied angrily

"So you're trying to tell me to calm down,  and listen to your bullshit ideas? "

" I just want to make things clear here Lucia,  I love my wife.  So much"

Mahal? Mahal nya si mommy pero inaaway nya ito?  I dont get it. Why are thwy fighting?  This is thr first time I saw them shouting at each other

" I know! Pero dont you mind considering Lucy and Lufer's feelings?  Ano na lang mararamdaman ng mga anak mo! " mom said at hinilot ang kanyang sintido

I dont know what they're two talking about.  All I know was ,tears started to fall from my eyes.

"May anak rin kami,  and I also love her.  Ayoko naman na mawalan ng karapatan ang anak ko sa atensyon ko" daddy said

Anak?  Anong anak?  What?  Ano yun?  Huhuhuhuhu

"So what's the point letting your illegitimate daughter to live here? " mommy said and starts to cry

"May sakit si Diane,  may taning na ang buhay nya,  ayoko naman na maiwan ang anak ko ng walang-wala.  Mawawalan na sya ng mommy,  gusto ko ako na ang magpaaral at magpalaki sa kanya"

I hate daddy!  Why he makes mommy cry?

Umakyat ako papuntang kwarto ni kuya

"Kuya!" katok ko sa kanya

Binuksan nya ang kanyang pinto at nakita nya ang pulang pula kong mata at ilong kakaiyak,  hindi na rin ako makahinga.  Basang basa ang mukha ko ng luha.

"What happened angel? " tanong ni kuya habang pinupunasan ang luha ko

"Si....si daddy...kuya..." iyak ko

"What?  Bakit ?ano ginawa ni daddy sayo? " nagaalalang tanong ni kuya sa akin

"pinaiyak...nya...si..mommy" hagulgol ko

Niyakap ako ni kuya,  siguro alam nya na rin yun.  Alam nya na rin ang tungkol doon.

"angel, dont cry. Mahina ka kapag umiyak ka" sabi ni kuya tsaka pinunasan ang mukha ko
