Chapter 2
Resign
I smiled to her like nothing happened three years ago.
"Long time no see, Madam." I stood and was about to kiss her but she swayed.
Umiwas siya, making me again embarrassed in front of Anthony with his new girl. A Chinese blood girl.
Sarap sabunutan ng matandang chinese na 'to, ubod pa naman ng ching san xu ang mukha.
"How are you dear? Again, you're here for an oldies date?" She mockingly said. I smiled sweetly to her.
"Well, it's not my type anyways. It's just a planned date but not oldies, hindi naman kasi ako na set up ulit." She looked away, then I turned to Anthony and smiled at him.
"Hi, Bernadeth. This is Wei Liu. Wei, this is Bernadeth." Anthony introduced the lady beside him.
Tumaas lang kilay ko sa kanila, napansin ito ni Madam at tila nag-iba ang kanyang mukha.
"Excuse us." Anthony then nod eyeing his Mom, "Mom? Mauna na kami." Then the two left us.
Mataman akong tiningnan ni Madam na nanatili sa harapan ko.
"Anthony is happy now. Better not to bother him, or else you'll live in hell." She smirked and then crossed her arms.
Agad ko namang pinakita ang hilaw kong ngisi.
"Of course, I don't like to have a bitch mother-in-law." Tatalikod na sana ako but she advanced and in one swift move of her hands, I felt the water in my face flowing like a river.
Nagulat ako sa biglaan niyang ginawa.
"Ops, sorry. It was an accident," Then she put back the empty wine glass on the table. After that, she raised her left hand, calling for the waiter.
"Excuse me, can you help this girl? She's so dumb to play with water." Sabi niya sa isang waiter at naglakad na paalis.
Agad na tumulo ang luha sa aking mga pisngi, mainit kumpara sa tubig na tumutulo sa aking mukha. Basang basa ang aking upper dress, kaya hindi ko na mapigilan ang humikbi at tuluyang lumabas ng restaurant.
Bakit nangyayari to sa akin? Bwesit naman oh! Para akong isang basang sisiw na pumara ng taxi.
"M-manong, sa BGC po." Pahikbi-hikbi kong sabi. Patuloy ang pagpunas ko sa aking mga luha.
I'm alone now. I'm forever alone everytime I encounter this kind of situation. Hindi 'to ang mga kahihiyang nangyari sa aking buhay. Marami na, even my family disgusted me. Other people would think that I'm cursed, yes maybe. Why is this happening to me!
