"Are you sure about this Jacques?" My mom's worried voice.I am packing my things. Hindi naman gaano karami. Sakto lang para ilalagay sa condo. Last month, we stroll around the city to see some available condo units. Luckily, we found some. Maybe, because of the connection from my father. He's a knowned Engineer after all.
"Yes, Mom." sagot ko habang inilalagay ang itim na hoodie sa maleta.
Umuga ang kama. My mom—who's now in her forty two, she still looks young. Parang walang pinagbago. Paminsan, naririnig ko inaasar ni Dad si Mom. Ang ganda daw kasi. Walang kupas.
And I agree though.
"You already have your own car. Puwede ka naman yata mag uwian nalang?" suhestiyon niya.
I sighed. We already talked about this.
"Mom," I tried my voice to be calm but there's a hint of a warning.
She smiled sadly in defeat. "I know, I know. It's just that..." she stopped and sighed. She stood up and hug me from the side. "I can't let my first baby go..." she whispered.
Simula pagkabata, her voice always soothes me. Tuwing umiiyak, she's the one who's going to wipe my tears. Tuwing kinakabahan, her voice will calms me. Tuwing hindi makatulog, her voice are my music.
She's perfect.
And Dad...well, he loves messing with us. Taga asar lang naman siya, pero alam kong mahal na mahal niya kami. I can even see them hugging and kissing their cheeks while watching TV.
Maybe Lesla was right.
What our parents relationship is what we also wanted in the future.
"I know, Mom. But," I hug her too. "I'm already nineteen, I want to be independent. I want to try my life, standing on my own feet. But ofcourse, with your guidance."
Muli siyang nagpakawala nang buntong hininga. Our eyes met. Ikinulong niya ang pisngi ko sa dalawang palad niya.
"Baby..." she smiled sweetly, "Come here from time to time, okay? Call us always." bilin niya.
Hinawakan ko ang kamay niya. "Yes, po."
"Anong kadramahan na naman iyan, nget?"
Pareho kami ni Mom napatingin sa pintuan. Dad—still wearing his office attire, went to us. Sa likuran niya ay si Lesla na may palamuti sa mukha. Nagti-tiktok daw kasi siya.
Her eyes landed on my packed things.
"Wow,voluntary exit ka na ba kuya?" asar ni Lesla at umupo sa kama ko. "O force eviction." tawa niya.
Ngumiti ako sa kanya bago kurutin ang mataba niyang pisngi dahilan para simangutan at sungitan niya ako.
"Ew, germs!"
"Lesla," My mom warned her.
Tumawa si Dad. "Ew germs ka pa, mamimiss mo lang ang kuya mo,"
Lesla rolled her eyes. "Miss? Are you serious Dad? Like totally seryoso? Ofcourse not!" her face sour as she denied it.
I shook my head. Ofcourse, no one believes her lies. We all knew how clingy she is to me.
"Really?" pagkikisabay ko. "Ayaw mo na ako kasama kasayaw pag nag titiktok ka?" tanong ko.
Umirap ulit siya.
"Magiging alitaptap ka na sa kaka-irap mo, Lesla." Si Dad.
Mom slapped his arms. "Nagmana 'yan sa'yo," she whispered.
