Sometimes we should really believe in our instincts. Dahil minsan mas nangyayari pa iyon kaysa mga pangako at sa mga salitang lumalabas sa bibig ng mga tao.

Just by mentioning the owner of the 'resthouse' iba na agad ang kutob ko. We chose to elude those feels, and then later on, blame ourselves for not believing it! Nakakaloka, hindi ba?

All this time we're staying under his roof! But the worst of all the worst is he's staying with us! Oo nga't kaniya ito at wala kaming karapatan mag-reklamo. Pero pwede naman yata kaming umalis dito at mag-stay nalang sa hotel hindi ba?

I already told them about this matter, pero hindi sila sang-ayon! Kesyo malaki naman daw itong resthouse at para iwas gastusin na rin daw. Seriously? Hindi ba sila makaramdam? As far as i can remember, me and Rod were not in good terms! At isa pa, yung mag-ama ko nandito. Eko knew Rod at sa pag-kakaalam ko ipinakilala ni Eko si Rod kay Keisxia!

For me, staying here is not a problem. I can be civil to Rod. Pero paano nalang ang mag-ama ko? Especially Eko who knew him? It'll be awkward to him! I can't be that callous!

I'm just waiting for Eko's word and then we'll leave. Mas mahalaga ang opinyon nilang dalawa kaysa akin. I can handle myself. I can endure anything for their sake.

Napapitlag ako sa aking kinatatayuan nang may yumakap sa binti ko.

My little monkey.

Lumuhod ako para pantayan siya. I kissed her cheeks before asking.

"Is my baby wants to have a glass of milk?"

"Yes, please mommy!" She then cupped my face and kiss me on my cheecks. Natawa ako dahil sa liit ng mga kamay niyang nakahawak sa mag-kabilang pisngi ko. Pinanggigilan ko muna ang mukha niya bago siya pinangko at iginaya patungong upuan.

"Wait me here, anak. Mommy will gonna get your milk a'right?"

"Oki."

Tinungo ko ang ref at binuksan para kuhanin ang fresh milk. Keisxia's mood seems so light, i don't know if she already find out about Rodleigh. If it's not, will their be close? Magiging masaya kaya si Keisxia? What if's rolling through my mind.

Kumuha ako ng baso sa lalagyanan at nagsalin ng gatas.

If she doesn't know and then figure it out by now, what will be her reaction? At kung sakaling malaman nito ang totoong nangyari, will she forgive her father?

Oh, God!

Ipinilig ko ang ulo ko at nag martsa patungo sa kung nasaan si Keisxia. Pilit kong ipinaskil ang ngiti sa mga labi nang bumaling sa kaniya at iniabot ang hinihingi niya.

Whatever might happen, tutulungan ko ang anak kong mahalin ang totoo niyang ama. Ayokong magtanim siya ng sama ng loob ni kahit kanino man. That wasn't a good feeling, it'll lead you becoming a monster.

However big the mistake that person done to you, you still should know how to forgive, like what our Lord does.

"My, am done." Nabalik lang ang ulirat ko nang marinig ko ang boses niya. Pinadausdos ko ang mga daliri patungo sa gilid ng labi niya para alisin ang natitirang gatas.

"There." Akmang kukunin ko na ang baso para iligpit ng may yumakap sa akin mula sa likuran. The scent, that i felt relieved and peace. Hindi ko mapigilang ipikit ang mga mata sa bangong nanunuot sa ilong ko.

This is so good! To the point i don't want him to let me go. I want to rest through his chest, i want him to hug me so tight while i'm about to sleep, i want him to plant a small kisses on my forehead in every possible way.. and then i will be feel secure.
