Keera's Point of View

"I don't like Jaydon for you. I don't like him" parang nawindang ako nung narinig ko 'yang mga salita na iyan. I didn't expect this.

"A-ano po Mom?" all I can say. I'm so schocked, hindi ko alam sasabihin ko. Akala ko okay na sa kaniya kasi kanina hindi man lang siya nag-react

"I don't like Jaydon for you. I really don't like him from the first start" nasasaktan ako sa sinasabi ni Mommy para kay Jaydon. Paano pa kaya kapag nandito si Jaydon?

"Mom, you don't really know him yet" sabi ko naman sa kaniya pero umiling siya

"You'll just get hurt. I mean, can't you see? He looks like a playboy. He'll hurt you, trust me Orianna" pero umiling ako, hindi ako papayag.

"Mom, tinuruan niyo ako na 'wag ijujudge ang tao by their physical appearance so let's be fair Mom, lahat po ng gusto ninyo sinusunod ko. You don't really know who is Jaydon, you don't know him yet. So please Mom, stop judging him. It's hurting me" tapos yumuko ako. I want to cry, hindi ko kayang makipagtalo kay Mommy lalo na't seryosong usapan 'to. She's my Mom pero kailangan kong ipaglaban si Jaydon. I love him, alam kong mabilis but I know I love Jaydon.

"Orianna, I'm just thinking about you. I just don't want you to get hurt. I'm your mother and I know what's good for you" pero umiling ako.

"Mom, you don't get me. I know you're just doing this because I'm too young for this" sabi ko sa kaniya

"No, Keera. I only care for you. I'm not doing this because you're just young. I'm doing this because I know you'll get hurt. I have trust on you, alam kong kaya mong pagsabayin ang love pati ang pag-aaral. But kay Jaydon? I don't trust him" I bit my lip. I don't want to cry.

"Please Mom, I'll make you proud of me. I won't dissapoint you, gagawin ko lahat para matuwa ka sa akin. But please support me on this Mom. I love Jaydon and he loves me too, ramdam ko yun Mom. Make some time to know him Mom, kapag nakita mo ang pangit na bagay sa kaniya I promise ako na mismo ang magpapalayo sa kaniya" I told her but she stared at me and later on she sighed.

"No. I'm sorry but I can't" and my tears started to fall. I bit my lip trying not to sob

I went upstairs, ayoko nang makipagtalo kay Mom. Hindi ko kaya. I called Dad, I need him.

"Baby?" pagtawag niya palang sa akin noon, naiyak na ako.

"What happened?" but still, I cried.

"Is this about Jaydon?" napatigil ako sa pag-iyak

"H-how did you know?" he smiled.

"If I'm there, I'd already wiped your tears" I smiled when he told that "Your mom told me about him, and I've searched about him" nagulat ako sa sinabi ni Dad, pinaalam agad ni Mommy. Baka ayaw rin ni Dad? sht, ang hirap nito kapag ganun.

"And I like him. Hindi ko pa siya kilala personally, pero when I talked to someone who knew his family and also about him, wala naman silang masamang sinabi" napangiti ako ng abot tenga nung marinig ko yun galing kay Dad. Sana ganun din si Mommy, hindi yung jinudge agad si Jaydon

"Thank you Daddy" sabi ko sa kaniya agad naman siyang ngumiti.

"But when I come home, kikilitasin ko 'yan ha" I just giggled and nodded. Pinunasan ko na luha ko

"I know you and your mom are not in good terms right now, but make sure Keera maaayos mo 'to ha?" I just nodded.

"She love's you so that's why she is became overprotective. Remember Mother knows best right?" I just nodded again
