Red Blood

Chapter Two - Saki's Life

"Fine!! Let's breakup!! Do whatever you wanted to do!! Just leave me and my daughter!! Go there in your other woman!! "
Mom's voice.

"Well, Okay!! I'll never come back here in your poor stupid house!! I will leave you!! I don't love you anymore stupid lady!! goodbye!!"
Dad's anger.

Well, halata nyo naba kung anong klaseng buhay meron ako? (sighed)
You know what, it's good if your parents or family are respecting, caring or loving each other, pero ibahin nyo pamilya ko.

I just wanted them to be happy together, but I think it's not that easy to go through. Away dito, sigawan doon, minsan tinatanong ko nga sarili ko bakit pa sila nagpakasal kung ganyan din sila in the future? By the way. I would like to introduce myself,
I'm Sakurako Saki, 17 years old, only child, but not spoiled. We're not rich, but, I'm contented for what I have now. I'm a high school student.

it's early in the morning and I have to go to school but my parents are still arguing. So, what I did is to prepare all by myself and leave silently without any permission from them.

I hurriedly ran to reach my school on time but I'm already late in our ceremony so, my teacher called me and talked to me in the other room for privacy.

"Do you know what time it is? You're always like that Ms. Sakurako, please next time come on time or much better, come early is that okay to you?"
Ms. Yamaguchi said.

"Okay ma'am I'm sorry."
I answered and bowed.

"Okay then, aasahan ko yan. Let's go, patapos narin ang ceremony."
She added.

Wala nakong ginawa kundi tumango at sumunod.

When we're about to go outside, I felt something na para bang may nakikinig sa usapan namin but I didn't see him or her kaya di ko nalang pinansin.

Sabay na kami ni Ms. Yamaguchi na lumabas saka dumiretso sa classroom para sa first subject.

By the way, adviser ko si Ms. Yamaguchi at siya rin lagi ang first subject namin hanggang break time.

After her lesson, tinext ako ni mama at pinapauwi niya na ako, malamang may nangyare nanaman sa babay...

Gaya ng text ni mama, nag alibi ako sa adviser namin para makapag excuse to skip my class, at pinayagan naman niya ako.

So, I went home to know what's happening with my mom and when I enter our house, I saw her sleeping at nalaman kong nilalagnat na pala siya.

That's why she texted me, to check her right away.. so, what I did is to take care of her until she gets well.

"Saki,... can you go to your father, and tell him about this... get him back to us dear, I don't know what to do without him..."
she mumbled softly and held my hands.

Pagkatapos ng ginawa nung lalakeng yon sa amin ni mama, gusto niya pang pabalikin?!! Aba ayoko! Di naman ako papayag sa ganon!!

"Mama, ayoko na siyang makita pa... sinaktan niya tayong dalawa diba? Hindi ko siya mapapatawad sa ginawa niya sa'yo! No, I don't want to meet or see him again, he's not my father anymore mom--"

"But he's still my husband Saki,...
I loved him from my whole life, pakiusap anak,... pabalikin mo siya dito sa bahay..."

Di ko natapos ang salita ko dahil sumabat bigla si mama. Well, I guess I can't feel her, but for me, if I was mom, I will not able to see his face again.. Ewan ko ba kay mama, napakamartir sa asawa niya...(sighed)

So, wala na akong nasabi pa at sinunod ko nalang ang gustong mangyari ni mama kahit ayaw ko, alang ala na lang sa kanya, gagawin ko para sa ikakasaya niya...
