Vander Series: BEEN IGNORED

Chapter 5

We're here at the couch except Von because he left before i woked up.

Yesterday was a blast but i didn't expect that Von would save me i really like the idea of that he still cares for me in a harsh way.

Vanna is beside me watching videos from her stunning bunny phone while wearing a headphone. I did once asked her if she wants to eat but unfortunately she didn't heard me

I am watching a TV and when i switched a channel there i saw a news about the dinner that we had yesterday.

"Mom!daddy's on TV"She was about to took off her headphones but i stopped her and luckily she didn't argue with that.

"The Business man Tycoon was caught on one of his Restaurant at Gallagher avenue but based on the picture he was not alone so we took an interview to the waiter that served them"

"Who was with Mr. Von Ace Spade Vander yesterday?"

"Mr. Vander said that it was her cousin and her daughter's cousin"

I was stabbed not literally but i felt something in me that want to punch him the waiter for saying a false news.

I glanced at Vanna and i was stunned when her headphones is not in her ears and her tears started to fall.

"That waiter is telling a lie!"vanna shouted.

"You weren't daddy's cousin and i wasn't daddy's cousin's daughter!Mom you were daddy's wife and i am daddy's little girl"she said while crying.

"Maybe that waiter was fired by daddy by now for telling a wrong story"i said and caressed my daughter's back

"He deserves it"my daughter said.

***

After that unpleasant news we heard i let Vanna go upstairs to take a nap and fortunately she did and i am currently here at the Kitchen preparing for dinner.

Because it's already 5:45 in the afternoon im not expecting that Von would come early were used to it.

Chicken curry is what im cooking and i also prepared lettuce and strawberry for Vanna.

Until now naiinis parin ako sa narinig ko mula dun sa waiter nayun. Kung wala siyang ideya kong sino kami kailangan niya pang gumawa ng kwento?

I went upstairs to wake Vanna but as my surprised she's already awake.

"Mom what time is it?"Vanna asked me.

"It's already 6:20 in the evening strawberry and it's the time that we should eat"i said as i kissed her forehead.

We're just peacefully eating in the Kitchen when i heard a car's engine outside.

"It's daddy"Vanna said and I just nodded.

"What's with you Arriane...why aren't you opening the door-"natigilan si Von sa pagsasalita ng makita niya si Vanna ng makapasok nasa kusina.

"Daddy!"Vanna hopped out of her chair and run towards Von.

"Sorry"I simply said.

"Dad we saw the news about-"I cut Vanna.

"Finish your food now Vanna masamang pinaghihintay ang grasya"I said firmly at mabuti naman at nakinig kaagad siya.

Von went upstairs and we Vanna continue eating...after eating Vanna went upstairs to her room while me is still here washing some dishes.

I wonder what Von's doing right now. He haven't eaten yet.

Pumunta ako sa taas sa kwarto ni Von para sana tanungin siya kung kumain naba siya.

I knocked but seems no one heard from the inside of the room so i try to twist the door knob and surprisingly it opened.

I was amaze of what im seeing right now a dark gray room is clean and well organize.

"Did i give you the permission to enter my room?"I was shocked when i heard Von's voice from the terrace.

"Im sorry...have you eaten?"I nervously asked.

"About the news that aired lately was true. I did deny the both of you"he said and out of nowhere im clenching my fist.

"You shouldn't have let us come with you"I said my daughter cried because of the idea of that waiter which happens na ang daddy pa niya mismo ang nag utos.

"Yeah i shouldn't have let the both of you come with me"ano bang gusto niyang sabihin.

"That dinner we had was the happiest day of Vanna and me because we get a chance to date you and about the news?Vanna heard it Vanna heard everything what that waiter said and you know what?your daughter cried, she cried because we thought that the waiter was just making up stories but unfortunately he didn't"I said while facing the floor...i am angry right now and the same time im also hurt.

I waited for Von's reaction but he didn't talked that's why I went straight out of his room.

Napakasama niya!sana hindi nalang niya kami sinama kong ganito lang din naman ang mangyayari ngayon...i just want what's best for my daughter but i guess i couldn't give it to her.

I hate you Von. I hate you for hurting our daughter but i still love you for no reason...love is too selfish how can this be happening to me?

Nagpunta nako sa kwarto at nag ayos ng kaunti then after that i went to my daughter's room and there i saw her in her bed peacefully sleeping.

I'll stay strong strawberry because i love you please don't leave me Vanna i might die for that.

I lay beside her. Vanna has a big bed that's why it's okay for me to sleep here for the meantime. I grabbed a blanket and covered it to my body and slowly closing my eyes.
