my father

Chapter 29
Arra Menese' Point of View

"Mommy?..."

Hindi ko sinasadyang mag salita....

I wish I could have bring back the time a second ago para instead na nag salita ako, umalis nalang ako.

"A-arra anak...."

I took a sigh and stepped out. Wala na.

Arra naman kasi eh! Kung bakit ba naman kasi nag salita ka pa eh...

"Mommy... Who is he"

I closed my eyes... Imagining I can see the guy na kausap ni mommy... To be specific, he's my dad...

Gusto kong itanong lahat. Bakit pina labas ni mommy sa amin ni Kuya Raven na patay na si daddy... Bakit sa tuwing nag tatanong ako about kay daddy lagi siyang no comment.... I want to ask lots and lots of questions.... Why did he leave us?

Pero bago pa man ako makapag tanong tungkol kay daddy at nag salita na si mommy..

"Arra, Kung ano man yung narinig mo... Please trust me... I'll still wouldn't tell. Arra anak I'm pr-----"

"Mommy. I'm not a kid anymore. Si Kuya? He's already matured enough. How's daddy? I wanted to ask him something. I wanted to know everything. Everything na itinago mo sakin.... Samin.... Saming dalawa ni Kuya simula nung bata pa kami hanggang ngayon..."

"What's about the fuss?"

Napa tigil lang ako sa pag sasalita nang biglang dumating si kuya...

He was still sleepy and yawning. Nag kakamot pa ito ng ulo.

"Charles... Arra...mga anak ko... I know you deserve to know the truth but I have my own reason why I did this...  I love you both...."

Umupo si mommy sa bench habang naka tingin lang sa cellphone niya.

"You go first to your works. Charles, take care of your sister. We'll meet up later after your works. Go ahead"

This was the first time na parang walang buhay kung mag salita si mommy. This is not her.

Nagka tinginan nalang kami. Seryoso ang mukha niya at ang mga mata niya at parang nag papahiwatig ng "Tara na. Maya na natin kausapin si mommy" bago ito tumalikod at umalis.

I took a glimpse of my mommy, before going. My mom's so cheerful. Para siyang tropa lang namin. She's so so lovable as a mother... Pero ibang usapan na pag ganto siya...

Hindi ako sanay sa ganto...

"Anong nangyari kay mommy Arra? She looks so down. Tell me"

He stopped walking... I also stopped.

"Kuya. Can we at least go somewhere else to talk? We need to go now. Ayokong marinig tayo ni mommy"

I heard a sigh.

"Mag bihis ka na Arra. Tinext ko na rin lang naman ang boss mo na hindi ka muna papasok ngayon dahil may emergency"

I nodded as my answer.

Dali Dali akong nag punta sa kwarto ko para mag palit ng damit.

"Ma'am, tawag na daw po kayo ni sir Raven."

Kuma katok sa sabi ni yaya sa labas ng kwarto ko.

"Ah, yes. Thank you po. Paki sabi parating na"
