CHAPTER 2- HER: AUREN ANASTASIA GALLANO
Mabilis niyang ineempake ang mga gamit niya. She doesn’t want to hear her father do the runting again. Ilang beses na siyang pinigilan nito, with the things he can give her, if she will just stay there. She had her own car, her pent house, her own rest house, she even had her own hotel and restaurant. Hindi nga lang niya iyon masyadong naaasikaso dahil she’s stuck in this place. Dali dali niyang isinilid ang bag niya ng marinig niyang may papa-akyat, and there he is.
“Asia, what are you doing? Don’t tell me you’re at it again?” napa hilot na lang ng batok ang kanyang ama.
“You have held me all this time, in this place. I want to see him. At hindi na ako mapipigilan ng pera mo, dad. If you will try to stop me, all the windows in this house, even the things under it will be broken.” Pagbabanta niya sa ama.
Napailing na lang ang kanyang ama.
“You know I can do it.” She knows because she had done it, not only one time, but so many times.
“Stop it, Asia.” Napamewang na ang kanyang ama at napailing ulit.
Napangiti siya, bumalik siya sa pagsisilid ng gamit sa maleta.
“You like to own a yacht, right Asia.” Alam niyang labag sa loob ng kanyang ama ang ginawang offer, based on his voice.
Napahinto siya, nawala ang ngiti niya sa labi. “Here we go again, heart kahit minsan naman mangibabaw ka kesa sa utak mo.” Sabi ng utak niya. But it failed her. “You will give me that.”
“Yes, if you unpacked your bags and fixed it in your drawers.”
Yate.
YAte.
YATe.
YATE.
YATEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
In those times yun ang isinisigaw ng isip niya.
She’s just 18 years old and she can own a yacht. How good is that? Not only good, it is one hell of an expensive goodness.
Then she remembered. She remembered the day when she saw it in her flat screen television. A rich kid announcing his wedding to be with a girl in front of a large number of cameras, and behind those couple is him. Her one and only love, together with his twin brother and his friends, according to the kid to be married.
Napahawak pa siya sa pisngi niya ng maalala iyon. Baka sa susunod ang pinakamamahal na niyang lalaki ang mag aanounce ng kasal sa television with an ugly girl, or worst a more beautiful girl than her. Hindi niya matatanggap iyon. Hindi talaga. Hinding hindi. No way!
Yate.
YAte
YATe
YATE.
YATTTTTTTTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Damn! Yun pa rin ang isinisigaw ng isip niya. Umiling iling siya. “NO!” sigaw ng puso niya sa isip niya. “ Ýou can have your yacht, but not now!”sabi pa.
“Wow, brave heart” naibulong na lang niya sa sarili.
Huminga siya ng malalim saka niya sinabing… “No dad! I will not fall for that again, even if you will buy me a hummer or one hell of a limousine, you will not be able to bribe me again. Im outta here!”
She grabbed her bag, smiled at her father a sarcastic smile. “Bye dad.” Saka siya sumimangot at nilagpasan ang ama.
Nasa kalahati na siya ng hagdan pababa ng marinig na niyang sumigaw ang kanyang ama. She is still afraid of him if his angry.
