Secret Affair

Stuck in the past

Cresantine's Pov

"I'm home." I said coldly but still  managed to smile. I saw them at the dining area, all eyes on me. Hindi na bago to, everytime na uuwi ako.

"Oh!C'mon, It's been two years. Bakit ganyan niyo pa rin ako tignan? Like you're seeing a stranger."  Can't they move on? Sabagay hindi ko sila masisisi.. I saw my mom's eyes, awang awa sa taong kaharap niya na kulang nalang siya na lumuhod sa harapan ko para akuin lahat ng sakit ng nakaraan.

"Wouldn't you invite me to eat?" pambasag ko sa katahimikan nila. Sobrang tahimik ng bahay pag umuuwi ako. Like they were so careful bawat kilos nila, they don't want to say anything or open a topic. Natatakot silang may ma-ungkat, may masabi na tungkol sakanya o samin.

"Come here, darling. Let's eat! I'm glad you're home." my mom exclaimed and hug me tightly, I know, she's still hurting and wondering what had happened two years ago.

I heard my mom and dad talking about the business trip. They are arguing whom will be going to present the new project of our company to one of our biggest client in New York.. My brothers were busy with their own line of businesses. My dad has been busy with the new infrastructure of our company. My mom is always busy on her up coming fashion events.

Ako? Wala. I knew what they were doing. Alam ko rin ang pasikot sikot sa business nila but never akong nakielam especially about business trip and proposals. Nagbibigay ako ng ideas for new projects pero sila ng bahala mag execute..

"I'll do it." I said it out of nowhere. Ofcourse, Shocked or surprised were on their faces. Ofcourse they should be, never kong ginawa na umattend ng business trip not until now. I am totally bored. I want something naman from New York. Oh boys , I said it inside my mind.

"I'll do it, I will go to new york for that proposal." pag uulit ko. Hindi naman ako mahihirapan to present that new project because it was my idea naman so It will be very easy for me. I'll take it as a vacation also, it's been a long time simula nung last na punta ko ng New York..

"Are you sure iha?" My dad calmly asked.. 

"Ofcourse Dad, I'm sure." I said with a smile. I knew how my dad cares for me.. "Hand me the details as soon as possible" pag-habol ko. Am I excited? uh uh, boys. New flavors..

I already heard dad talking to his secretary.. My mom was looking at me, like she wants to ask something but she just smiled at me and hold my hand.. I understand why she's being like that..

After a long day, I got the papers that I'll be needing.  I said my goodbyes to my mom and dad. I need to go, Since that day happened, I never slept or stayed in our house. I bought my own place.

 I was so damn tired, maybe I need to get some drinks. I took out my phone "Hi babe, free tonight?" As usual he's like a mouse hiding from the cat..

"We have a family dinner," he answered in a low voice. Muntik ko ng hindi marinig sa sobrang hina and after hearing that I was about to end the call " wait, but I can join you."  he said nervously and excitedly . Ofcourse you can't resist me. "Daddy!where are you?" I heard in the line.

"Ok,see you babe." I said in a seductive way, then I ended the call. You must feel guilty ..

Will you do the same thing if we got married? 

If you didn't run away from me, are you going to cheat? 

Are you seeing someone behind my back?

 Are you going to hide when you're talking to your whore? 

Are you going to cancel our family dinner?

 Are you choosing your woman instead of us? 

Are you having  an affair with some woman?

 Would you lie to our kids just to satisfy your d*ck?  

Would you ?    or  

Would you be the perfect husband and father? 

Are we one happy family?

Tears fell down from my eyes, as I thought of that. It is never easy to forget.
