The Unwanted Daughter

"Every child is a blessing from God that needs to be cherished"

November 30,2013

         It was my birthday but i guess it will passed like an  ordinary day. Nothing special. I was staring my phone when it suddenly rang. I froze when i saw whose the caller. My father. I guess he still cares. I answered it quickly even my heart is exploding because of overwhealming happiness.

"Hello Pa? Bakit po kayo na napatawag ?

"Rica? Oh honey, im sorry i was planning to call Mr.Ricardo but anyway i got to do something.Take care dear"

"Pa Don't yo-" tooth tooth

and the other line went off

my smile slowly banished. Hindi ko pa natatapos ang ang mga sasabihin ko pero pinutol na nya agad. What do i expect. After all i should'nt have assumed. Lagi namang ganito eh. Well this the consequence of being UNWANTED DAUGHTER. I grow up with my lola but eventually she passed away when i was just 15. Since then i was left alone. Are you curious where are those god dammed people who brought me to this life. Well i guess you already have an idea. I was a product of one night stand. Their raging libido drag me to this hell. My mom was an international model at that time and my good for nothing father is a business tychoon slash a politician. Each of them have their own reputation that needs to protect plus the fact my father is married with two daughters and one illegitimate child is far from needed. If its not because of my lola. My parents already planned to get rid of me. My mom is so much obsessed to her carrer and having a child is none of her plans. Well i will even thank her if she did that. I am the one whose suffering from their mistakes. I am openly judged. In the eyes of my parents' relatives i am a fruit of infedelity. I can't even walk to a crowd without looking at. They looked me like a i was the most disgusting creature that God ever made.  Not until i became a model. I became famous. People forget whose my parents are but not in the eyes of my relatives. They still think of me like a trash. A product of a sin.

After i went to a photoshoot.My mom called. I lazily answered.

"Hello Rica?"

"im here mom"

"Hija pwede bang wag mo ng tanggapin ang offer ng Storm Angels. Ipaubaya mo na lang sa kapatid mo. Marami pa namang offers na darating sayo. Baka kase ito na yung magiging stepping stone ni Cheska para sumikat din sya. "

(Storm Angels is an international modelling agency.)

"Pero panu naman ako matagal ko ng pinaghirapan and this is my chance." Gusto ko sanang sabihin but i choose to keep it on my own.

"Sige po i will call my manager and tell him na wag ng tanggapin ang offer ng Storm Angels"

"Thank you Rica! Siguradong matutuwa si Cheska! "

Cheska is my stepsister on my mom side. Irony is'nt it ? She even choose her stepdaughter to love than her own bood and flesh. She is the daughter of her husband Mr. Romero to his first wife. He is also a business tychoon and they were living as a happy family.

My mom is inviting me to attend Cheska's celebration party. According to my mom she already signed a contract as one of the Storm Angels. Which should be me.if i diclined the request of my mom. There she is as usual being gorgeous as ever "Lalaine Monteverde-Romero" former international model. Sexy despite of her age. I approached her and she gladly guided me to buffet just like what she with the other guest.

"Rica, Hija Try this buttered shrimp. Your sister Cheska personally cooked this. Isnt she's amazing"

"Mom im allergic to shrimp"  i said with irritated manner
