Staring at the shadow of raindrops slowly dripping on my glass window.The city lights are blinking,as if summoning out my deep thoughts.I took a breath to capture again another shot of the cozy weather.
I hugged my large pillow and a tiny brown blanket covering up my half body, then a sudden voice filled my ears, my mother.
She's knocking out my door with her heavy hands and my knees started to tremble, because of her strained voice. She kept on calling my name, but this time I unlock my door and immediately pull her before she collapse outside.
...
"Mom, we have a deal, I just wanna have a vacation there. There's no living thingy on our past conversation." I said in disappointment.
"Honey, your dad is a liar! He deserved to be alone with her new-"she pulled her hair and confusion was plastered on her face."W-we need to book a flight tomorrow as soon as possible."she said before sipping on her coffee, I tried to look calm but she was sure of her decision.
"Okay.." I utter in a tone of disapproval.
Damn it, how can I complain when I'm only eighteen,I'm also bad in decisionmaking!"If you're worrying about your carreer it can wait, and to your friends they can use social media to communicate with you. Si Philip? he can wait, no more explanation.Stop throwing me a pity look that won't stop us from leaving." she declared before I open again my mouth.
"Mom! That's not easy, oh my god please consult me before you regret everything. You're so selfish mom!" I exclaimed impulsively before I get a heavy slap against her.
"If you think I'm doing this to escape problems then yes! If being selfish is to protect you then I'm okay with it. You ain't me Alexandra! Would it risk your eyes if you saw your lover kissing another woman?" she laughed a bit and began to tap moderately her stiletto on the floor.
I'm boomed!
I stayed silent knowing she was visibly hurt, she rubbed her eyes trying to hold back her tears, I know she was already in a state of weakness. I tried to hold her but she refused to.
"If you're not coming with me then, I must live alone, magkaniya- kaniya na tayo nang buhay." I stopped when she said that.
"No..I'm coming with you mom." my voice hoarsened while nodding at her, I saw a glint of satisfaction on her face.
She dialled the number of my father and offered her to rest in the couch from now I must defend my mother's pride.
Silence was enveloping the atmosphere, after a few seconds the call was pick up by another woman on the other line! Damn it, how could she giggle like that?
"Daddy? who's with you?"I made my voice more tender but the coldness in my face was eating up my emotions, all of a sudden my eyes began to water.
"Hello honey? Is everything okay?"
"No daddy..Is everything okay to our family?" I mocked before I end up the call.
I saw how my mother stooped down from the couch and this made me more uncomfortable I hate seeing a person suffering from another person. I hate you so much daddy.
I tried to reach her hands and she immediately hugged me, she's already weakened in pain.
If I could only have a damn power to control feelings over a person, then I would be willing to share it for them to wake up from that stupid love.Her cream coat was wet, as we exchanged glimpse with our hopeless eyes. I gulped when she cleared her throat.
I typed another message from this anonymous guy who keep on bothering me, he is my two year old boyfriend online but we keep each other unknown.
Another message popped on my notification bar, I can't feel any affection towards to this person.That's always a period of me.
No attachments less heartaches.
"Pack all your things, you must sleep.. I'm sorry anak." she murmured I kept on looking at my phone and then she tap my shoulder that caught my attention.
She gave me a fake smile.
I just nodded and kiss her cheek.
"I love you mom..sorry for that, I was just trying to calm you down.." I parted my lips to surpass my hidden sadness.
"I know you loved daddy, and.. and it's difficult to solve problems all by yourself, I'm here mom.." a tear escape on my eyes she wiped it immediately with her thumb.
Her bloodshot eyes converged into mine and we both cried in misery. I know she will never beg and put down her dignity just for a cheater.
Maybe I need to strengthen my durability as a woman, maybe we need it, badly. I clasped both of my fingers to calm myself and sighed deeply.
"Stealing a husband is a choice, a wise man will never jump off to another woman, just that daddy is not so wise. He's at fault this time.." I said in a soft tone.
"Don't trust too much Sandra, to your suitors or any men who's around you. Trust is a very big responsibility, especially to yourself. In my case, I trusted your dad the moment.. he said his vows inside the church.. and I didn't know.. it was scripted. Iyong babae pala ang gumawa ng panata sa kasal namin, even in church he lied." my mouth slightly opened when she confessed something.
"Being with your father is my biggest mistake."she continued.
I gasped.
She wiped her tears and kisses my forehead, she turn off my lamp and walks slowly.
I bit my lower lip to stop myself from sobbing, maybe earth is not even a circle nor flat, it was fucked up by cheaters!My emotions are overflowing and my eyelids are corrupting my vision but another message popped up on my notification bar.
" I love you, Alex..Goodnight. "
