Chapter 21
Ever since, I don't have a wrath to my father. I know the situation, and I can tell to myself that I can let these things happen in their own.
I knew that wishing to have a complete family in my life is a miracle indeed, but if I'm ambitious for wishing it. I'm sorry, then.
"Kumain ka na, anak" sita saakin ni Mommy.
Hindi ko kasi matanggal ang tingin ko kay daddy, ang sarap pakinggan na may natatawag na akong daddy.
I heard him chuckled. "I'm not going anywhere, eat Mira."
Tumango ako at kumain na lang. Matapos ang insidente sa school na laking pasasalamat ko at walang nakakita, agaran ko silang hinila paalis doon.
Ramdam ko ang tensyon sa pagitan ni Kuya at daddy kaya hindi ko maiwasang mangamba. I knew kuya. Lalo na kapag galit siya. But, I thank it. He didn't do anything to ruin the moment.
"May plano ka na sa college?" Biglang tanong ni dad. Tumango naman ako.
"I'll take Mascom" sagot ko.
Matapos naming kumain, ay inaya ko si daddy na pumunta sa bahay. Pero dahil pupunta si mommy sa opisina, at si kuya lang at ako ang maiiwan hindi na ako nag pumilit.
"Pwede akong pumunta roon" sagot ni dad.
"S'yempre. Bumili ka nga ng bahay sa village namin e" bulong ni kuya kaya napatingin ako sakaniya. Umiwas siya agad ng tingin.
"Kailan po?"
"Maybe, if my schedule is free. Besides, may bahay ako sa village niyo". Tumango ako, marahil siya nga ang nakita ko noon.
Pag uwi sa bahay, walang sinuman ang nag sasalita. Hindi ko rin alam kung ano ang sasabihin. Naiinis ako, at hindi ko alam kung paano ako magsisimula.
"Mira--"
"You knew?" Putol ko sa sasabihin ni kuya.
Tumikhim siya, saka tumango.
"I asked you, remember? If you know our father's name?"
"I'm trying to protect you, Mira".
"Because we're just his second family?" Mabilis na tanong ko.
"Protect you, from judgment" he sighed.
"I grew in that way, what's new about that?"
"Mira, anak. Ayaw lang ng kuya mo na masaktan ka"
"Pero mas nasasaktan ako, knowing you hiding me something that I really need to know, Mom".
"Hindi mo naiintindihan--"
"When, then? Tell me when did I understand?"
"You don't know what is going you be happen, Mira. Hindi mo kilala ang asawa niya, she can hurt you if she want" ani kuya.
"I don't care" sagot ko.
"Anak, makinig ka sa'min ng kuya mo. Ayaw lang namin na masaktan ka, pinoprotektahan ka lang namin sa mangyayari"
