Dream Come True
by: Adine Navarro (chingniii)
I'm standing in front of the classroom, not as a student but a teacher. I felt my lips smiling widely in front of them.
"Miss Jade! You're sleeping again!"
I woke up, all my dreams fade and went black, I take a deep breath before I face my teacher. I never imagine myself to be like her, a teacher. But why all my dreams shows that I'm a teacher.
"Miss Jade, get out of my class now!" my teacher trembling in anger while shouting those words. I stand up and walk towards the door to go out like what she said.
"Where do you think you're going?"
"I'm going out, Ma'am. Like what you said." I answer calmly. I saw her boiling in anger.
"Miss Jade, go to the guidance office! I will call your parents! Your attitude is so uncontrollable!"
I continue walking like nothing happened. I'm always in the guidance office and they always called my parents to come but no one comes. Nothing's new.
I'm sitting in the coach of the guidance office, waiting for my teacher who reported my attitude today. The door opened; I turned my face to my teacher. I was so shocked when I saw who's with her. It's Tita Casey, my stepmother. I stand up lazily to welcome them while entering the guidance office.
"Jade, what happened to you?" Tita Casey asked me, like she really cared for me. I can't help but rolled my eyes.
"Where's Dad?" I asked as if I didn't hear what she said.
"He's at work."
"Oh! Yes, I remembered! He's always at work!" I said sarcastic. I saw the irritation on her face. I can't help to smile in my mind.
I know we're not okay. She's not okay to me, she just needs to be close to me because of my father. Nothing more.
They enter the one of the offices inside the guidance office and left me outside, in the living room of the whole room. This is the first time that someone came for me, but I never expected her to come for me. I expect Dad or Mom to come for me, if they knew where I am.
I looked at the door when they opened it.
"Thank you, Ma'am. I'm sorry for the troubled cause by my daughter." I heard Tita Casey apologize to my teacher. I rolled my eyes.
I will never be her daughter. I had my own mother, even if she had a new family.
I'm only 4 years old when my parents decided to separate and have a new family. I left with my grandmother and Dad. My Mom had a new daughter, my two little sisters. I got mad, I'm here waiting for her care, but now she already had a new baby. Time comes, Dad marry Tita Casey, so I will have a mother figure. I was so mad at Dad because of what he did, I even told him that I don't need a mother, I want my real mother, I want our family to be complete again but how? If they both already had a family.
Until I decide to be a rebel. I want them to realize the effect to me of what they did. I always in trouble, at the age of 15, I learned how to smoke and drink alcohol. Then my grandmother died. I left on my father.
I go straight to my room when we arrived at home. I don't want to talk about what happened in the school; I don't care if she tells Dad what I did. I will more okay for me, he'll know what I've done.
Days passed, my dad never called me to talk about what happened, it means Tita Casey didn't tell what I did. It's already break time when I arrived at school, many scattered around the corridors, laughing and talking to they're friends and classmates. I listlessly go to my classroom. I sit on my chair, beside the window. I was looking outside the window when our teacher entered our classroom.
