Fairytale (5)
Dito narin pinapadala ang pananghalian ko, hindi na ako kumain, busog naman ako dahil wala akong ginawa kundi magkulong sa kwarto. Ganun ang gawain ko sa loob ng isang buwan.
“Paradise Biantecilia! This is the last time you treat us like that!” Daddy was fuming mad right now. I pulled his trigger because for the fifth time I declined their invitation for me to eat with them.
Bumaling ako sa kanya. “Why dad? Does it hit your ego?” mapanuya kong sabi.
“When did you learn to talk to me like that?!” Sigaw nito na ikinatalon ko. “I didn’t raise you to be like that.”
“You want to know when Dad?” tiningnan ko si Mommy. Umi-iling ito sa akin. I apologiticaly glare at her. Sorry My but I pulled the trigger. It’s time to face it.
“Bakit ba Ise?! What did I do wrong!” galit na ito. Sa tuno palang, dahil hindi siya sinisigawan nito.
“What did you do wrong? Is that even a question to me? Maybe you should ask that to yourself first Dad. Hindi dapat ako ang tinatanong ninyo niyan, kundi sarili ninyo!” I can’t help it I need to blow it now.
“I ask my self that question so many times, but I don’t know! Magtatanong ba ako kung alam mo?!” Dinuro ako ni Daddy. Hinawakan naman ni Mommy iyon. Pinapakalma si Daddy. I can’t bare to watch my mother right now.
“Stop it Lujenso, let’s stop this.” Nagtiim bagang ako, I didn’t imagine my own mother like this.
“Don’t stop us My.” Binalingan ako ni Mommy. She gave me a glare that says stop-it-before-its-too-late, as if I would step back. “This should be stop, and inorder to make this stop is to face it. You shouldn’t be afraid faxing the truth, right My?” hindi sinagot ni Mommy ang tanong ko kaya hinarap ko si Daddy. “Do you by any chance love Mommy, Daddy?” I ask him na ikinagulat niya. Gotcha!
“Why are you asking? Of course mahal ko ang Mommy mo.”
“Really?” I ask. I make my face like I was very happy that I know it, but deep inside I was being sarcastic.
Napangiti si Daddy. “Yun lang ba ang problema mo Ise? You shouldn’t think about us like that. We are a happy family. We we’re like a fairy tale, remember our love story right?” tanong nito. As if that is my question, it’s just a warm up Dad.
“Kung yung pang pala yun Daddy, sana hindi na ako nag-aksaya ng mga araw diba?” tanong ko dito na nakapakuntot ng noo nito. “But it wasn’t just as simple as that.”
“What is really your real questions then?” his eyes are now defensive while I was staring at it. You really have something you didn’t tell me Dad, I can read you like a book.
“Why did you bring a woman in a restaurant and you were like your in love with her for a long time. I even took pictures of you and your mistress! How dare you did that to me and Mommy! Sino kayo para saktan Ng ganyan si Mommy?!” galit na galit ako.
