Want You Back (JulNiel)

Chapter Fourteen - Lied

Lied

I really can't understand what the heck is happening here.

All I know is that she was really up to something and I badly want to know that but dale. He won't tell me what's happening

Wala naman raw kasi akong magagawa.

I dialed his number.

Dialing Dale Emerson...

("Hello")

"Dale! Just please tell me, nahihirapan na'ko"

("I can't, I've promise okay? I just can't and besides, you have nothing to do in there and I'm sure your mother won't allow you to go in there")

"Are you nuts?! I'm going to get some help at my dad if she won't "

("They won't allow you")

"Atleast I've tried, please dale. I'm begging you. Don't make this hard for me"

("Don't make this hard for me too, I want to help but as I've said. I've promise her not to tell you the real situation b-between her and elson") what? I really don't get it.

"Just let me understand please"

("Sorry dwayne but I can tell you her location if you're still interested")

"Yes I am, thank you dale"

("Tsk, I should've chosen not to be your friend")

"Para naman gustong gusto kita maging kaibigan. Asa ka pa! Pero, thank you"

("No problem") binabaan ko siya ng tawag. Badtrip padin ako sa kanya. Inaway ko kasi siya ng sobra sobra, kaya napaamin.

I'll try to talk to my parents.
Bumaba ako para hanapin si mama.

"Ma" sabi ko nung makita ko siya sa kusina.

"Bakit nak?"

"Could you give me money?"

"Para saan?"

"I want to see her, ma" napahinto si mama sa ginagawa niya at tinignan ako.

"Sino?"

"Si jack ma"

"Pero diba anak ang sabi mo sakin nasa ibang bansa siya? At isa pa, break na kayo? What if she'll just push you away"

"No ma, sigurado. Ma, please. I really wanted to see her"

"Nak, hindi ganun kadali maglabas ng malaking pera. Masyadong malaki yung gastos nun. Baka sobra pa sa tuition niyong magkakapatid ang magastos. Matagal pa ang process, kailangan mo pa ng passport. Anak, hindi tayo kasing yaman ng tatay mo. Sapat lang ang pera natin para maibigay ko ang mga gusto at kailangan niyo pero hindi yung gusto mo ngayon, paano na lang yung mga kapatid mo?"

"Pero ma, kailangan niya ako"

"Nak, gustong gusto ko na matulungan ka at pumunta ka dun. Kung may pera lang ako para diyan. Bakit hindi diba? Naiintindihan mo naman siguro ako"

"Opo"

Umakyat ako ulit sa kwarto.
ayoko man. Pero susubukan ko.

"Last chance, please, God. Please"

Dialing Gomez Corp...

("Yes? hello, This is Gomez Corporation. How can I help you?")

"Can I talk to Mr.Gomez?"

("Who is this, please?")

"I am, dwayne Daryll Gomez. His son"

("Oh I'm sorry sir, I'm going to inform Mr.Gomez as soon as possible")

"Okay, Thank you"

("No problem, sir") I hang up the call.

Sana talaga tanggapin ni Dad. I need to talk to him because I want to see her. It was like, she need me.

But I'm confuse about the situation dale was tellin. I might get hurt in the end. Like what elson have told me.

Maya maya lang ay biglang nag ring ang phone ko.

Unregistered Number Calling...

"Hello?"

("Hello, son")

"Dad" muntik na naman ako maiyak. Siya na lang pag-asa ko.

("It's a miracle, how did you know my corporation's number?")

"I already had it since I was younger than I am now"

("Really? I'm impressed and why are you trying to reach me out? Do you miss your father already?")

"Maliban pa dun, Dad"

("What is it?")

"C-can I have your support?"

("About what son?")

"I want to see someone but mama is refusing, so I am not able to see her. She needs me Dad"

("She? Is she your girlfriend?")

"Yes"

("So what now?")

"I need some money Dad, could you help me? She's in another county, mama can't just give me money for it"

("What?! You really didn't miss your father, Don't you? You just called because you want to get some money to see that someone? I am sorry son but I think I can't and one more thing, before your mother and I got separated. She told me, not to help any of you! She told me she can give anything you need! Anything you want! Now what? Is she the one responsible for this? This is unacceptable. After underestimating me, after underestimating what I can do for you and your siblings, now what? You're calling me just to give you support for your needs that your mother told me she can give but she really can't. Now where is that support? Does she really deserve to be called a mother?")

"Enough Dad, just tell me if you doesn't want to help me. Stop talking about your ego. It's your fault by the way, stop blaming everything to ma as if she's the reason why you two got separated. This isn't about the issues between the two of you now! This is about me and the girl I am suppose to live with!" Tinapos ko yung tawag. I cried.

I cried because I can't go to see her.
I cried because I lose my hope that I can still go there.
I cried because I don't know what the heck is happening to her.
I cried because I lied not just to my dad but to myself that I can still be with her.
