A Life Of Tears #2

I woke up when the sunlight hit my face and then I felt no one next to me.I got up and went to my closet to get dressed,a household clothes since its sutarday.

When I came down the stairs, my eyes caught sight of my family waiting for me to arrive."My baby,goodmorning.Have a seat."mom greeted me"You don't seem to be awake well?"She said as you could really see the astonishment on his face.

"Goodmorning mom,dad and kuya"and I gave them one by one a wide smile."maybe because I'm still sleepy, but don't worry about me mom."

The folding of the newspaper made a noise signaling that dad had finished what he was reading so our maid started distributing food.

Rice,chia seeds,egg and bacon ang kinain ko while greek yogurt naman for drinks recommended by dad.

Silence enveloped us and only the movement and scooping of cutlery could be heard.

Were done eating.

"Make sure Maliyah that you ship the products correctly and properly because only one mistake can affect the condition of the company. That contract is one of the biggest projects this year so you will make sure you will not failed."he threatened me as if I have a record of miscarried all his command which in fact in my whole life I have done nothing but follow and impress him with my ability but all that to him was still lacking and I'll not giving up showing that to him."and one more thing, don't waste any more time, start now to finish it sooner, that's not the only project to do." I nooded at him and drank some water first.

"Opo dad.Dont worry because we will do our best for this ship and Ill assure you na hindi kayo magsisisi na kami ang pinili mo."I look at him and give him my pan am smile to give him assurance and he just nooded.

"By the way sheen,Why don't you take a vacation while you're still here in the Philippines? Because I know being a model is so tiring."I looked away from them all because I felt the pain again.The feeling that you are the one who persevered for your family but still lacking? The feeling that you are the one who shows elegance but you are still the loser? The feeling that you have done nothing but to show what you can do but still nothing?Because that was all defeated by favoritism.Atensyon na wala ako.

My kuya looked at me with gentle and caring.I gave him a look in pain,siguro sa mga oras na ito hindi ko kayang magpakamanhid dahil totoong nasasaktan ako.Napatingin din sa akin si mom at alam kong nagaalala rin siya sa nararamdaman ko ngayon.

"Aakyat na po ako,madami pa po kase akong gagawin e"I no longer bothered to wait for their answer and hurried go upstairs.When I entered my room, I locked the door and leaned over to calm the tears that I wanted to release earlier.

I heard my cellphone ring for the fourth time but I dont want to answer it because I don't feel like talking to anyone right now and all I want now is to be alone.I covered myself with a blanket and tried to close my eyes to sleep so that I wouldn't feel any pain during these times.Throughout the process I would have fallen asleep when there's suddenly knock the door.

"Princes open the door,someone is waiting for you"and you already know who this nuisance is.I settle my appearance first so that I look presentable to whoever my guest is."Hurry up"

"Ikaw lang pala?Sana naman pumasok kana lang hindi yong iniistorbo mo tulog ko"I sassy greeted my guest as she disturbed my sleep that my eyebrows meet with so much annoyance."sana man lang pumasok ka na lang no?"I said with a mixed tone of sarcasm and anger.I turned my gaze to kuya to send him away 'cause until now I still feel jealous about what happened earlier "kuya okay na,you can go now"I rolled my eyes and hurried back inside my room.
