Chapter Twenty Four ~ That Should Be Me

Chapter Twenty Four ~ That Should Be Me

PIERRE’S POV:

Maaga akong nagising ngayon as usual at nakabihis na ako ng pamasok  para sa office. So I decided to go to our dining room para kumain ng breakfast. Oo nga pala andito ako ngayon sa bahay namin I didn’t sleep at my condo last night.

Pagdating ko sa dining hall namin nakita ko na agad ang parents ko doon pati ang aking Ate. Kumpleto pala kami ngayon well except for Pio my lil’ brother nasa shooting siguro ngayon yun. Pero mukhang di nila napansin ang presensya ko dahil pawing mga busy sila sa ginagawa nila.

“Oh! Hi there son. Come in and sit.” Sabi ni Papa sakin. He looked relieved upon seeing me. He gave me a Buti-na-lang-dumating ka look. I just arch a brow and looked indifferent because I don’t have any clue what was happening.

I help myself out in dining table. I sat down beside my father. Then my gaze went to the two precious ladies in our family, my Mom and my sister.

Then there I saw them staring dreamily at the big flat screen TV on our wall  It was opposite our dining table. Mukhang kinikilig sila pareho at nag-aabang. Wonder kung ano yun. Hmm---

Then my gaze shift to the TV I got curious on what they’re idling about. And I saw that it was tuned in the morning show/news.

Me too started to watch it.

“At ngayon para sa ating latest showbiz chika para sa ngayong umaga.” Sabi ng host ng programa.

Sus, celebrities lang pala. Kaya naman I started to fill my plate up habang panay report nung host sa TV.

“And now, para sa mga avid fans ni Seth Villarasa …” and that rang a bell. Napatingin naman ako ulit sa TV.

“Kamakailan lamang ay napagalaman nating hindi na single ang binatang Singer/Actor na ito na siya namang iniidolo at kinbabaliwan ng maraming kababaihan, at gayundin nalaman din nating siya ay ikakasal na sa kanyang international model at childhood sweetheart niyang si Mielle Andrews. At karamihan nga ay nagtataka sa bilis ng mga pangyayari pero kaninang umaga daw ay namataan ang dalawa sa NAIA at sweet na sweet narito ang report.” Sabi ng host at medyo kinikilig pa.

“Kyaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!” kinikilig na tili ng ate ko.

And the rest I didn’t hear it. Because I felt so numb. I saw them playing pictures of Fallon and Seth kissing and hugging each other at the airport. I feel a stab of pain in my chest. Then they played a video of Seth singing while looking lovingly at the woman I love.

I can’t understand what the host was saying. All I know is that I was so hurt my heart was shattered into a million pieces. I felt the tears that wanted to fall down from my eyes. Kaya naman agad akong tumayo at lumabas  ng bahay.

I don’t want them to see that I’m crying and hurting.

“Uhh! Ang swerte naman ni Mielle Andrews! Kyaaahh! They really look good together.” Kinikiig na kumento ni Ate.

“I bet tuwang tuwa ang mga magulang nila to see their children doing good.” Kumento ni Mama.

“They really do suit each other. They are both a good catch.” Sabi ni Papa.

It hurts even more na boto sila para sa ibang tao. But what would they do they know anything.

I just ran to our garden and sat there. All the tears that I’ve tried hard not to fall fell down.

I poured out my heart there. Regret, envy and jealousy and anger was flowing over me. I know I look so gay crying here. But I don’t care it damn hurt so much.
