Obispo Residence - Candelaria, Quezon
Jorge and Sunshine arrived in Candelaria, Quezon a little before twelve noon. She was astounded seeing how her hometown has changed for the last six years. Memories suddenly came back as soon as she stepped foot infront of their house. As she stands infront of it, she could not help but admire how her father was able to maintain the beauty of it. It looks old but nobody can deny that it was well taken cared of.
Her mother, Sally Obispo suddenly came into her mind. What she is now is not the Sinagtala that she dreamt of her. Her mother sees her as a simple young lady fulfilling her dream of being the country’s one of the best business icons. Exactly opposite of what she has become, here she is standing infront of their house, not in corporate attire but in a fashionable ripped jeans and tank top covered with plain black blazer which smartly matches her stillettos.
Teddy Obispo was all smiles though in tears upon seeing his only daughter who has been away for six years.
“Sinag” he said as he sees her walks towards her from the gate. He could not believe that his simple Sinag would change into this elegant lady. He could not longer see traces of that simple girl who never gets tired of helping him and his wife in the store and in the household chores. Now he sees a fine young lady who obviously conquers all hardships that was thrown to her at an early age.
“Tay” Sunshine exclaimed as soon as she sees him waiting at the veranda. As she runs towards him, tears began to fall on her cheeks as she has been missing this old man a lot. A father’s hug, that’s what she has been longing for in the last six years that they were apart.
“Tay, Sorry po ngayon lang ako bumalik. Sorry po talaga” she repeatedly said while tightly hugging her father.
Teddy Obispo hugs her tighter as he realized how much he misses her. “Welcome home anak, masaya ako na nakauwi ka na” Tatay Teddy gladly said
Only few words for each other because they know that their hearts already know what are the words they wanted to utter and how much they longs for each other.
“Magandang tanghali po Mang Teddy” Jorge said
“Magandang tanghali din Jorge, maraming salamat at sinamahan mo si Sinag na makauwi dito sa Quezon” Tatay Teddy said
“Wala pong kaso Mang Teddy, masaya rin po akong nakabalik dito sa lugar natin” Jorge said
“Tayo na sa loob para makakain na tayo ng tanghalian” Tatay Teddy said
Holding hands, Tatay Teddy and Sunshine went inside the house. The more Sunshine got surprise when she sees the interior of the house.
“Nagustuhan mo ba ang ayos ng bahay Sinag? Ito ang ayos na gusto ng Nanay mo di ba?” Tatay Teddy asked and Sinag nodded astonished. “Yung sobra sa ipinapadala mo, iniipon ko para maipaayos ang bahay natin” he added
“Eksakto sa gustong ayos ni Nanay. Maraming salamat po Tay” Sunshine said
“Halika nang kumain, siguradong gutom na kayong dalawa sa sobrang haba ng byahe nyo” Tatay Teddy said
“Hindi pa rin nagbabago ang traffic sa San Pablo Tay” Sunshine said
“Tama ka anak. Kaya nga hindi ako nahilig lumuwas sa Maynila dahil dyan sa sobrang traffic. Nanibago ka na ba? Wala kasing traffic sa Paris eh” Tatay Teddy said laughing
“Meron din naman po pero konti lang, dito po kasi sa Pilipinas parang karugtong na ng buhay mo ang traffic, lalo na sa Maynila” Sunshine said
