"KIERSON..." Napahinto ako sa paglalakad ko when I heard Maria's voice.
"Hmm? What is it, Maria?" I heard my husband asked her.
I closed my eyes as I gritted my teeth with so much irritation. I took a deep breath and I tried to calm myself.
"G-gusto ko...gusto kong m-masubaybayan ang paglaki ng anak natin," she said sofly, she made sure that, there's a sadness on her voice.
I raised my eyebrow and shook my head, repeatedly. Ano'ng gusto niyang palabasin?
"Maria."
"Please...Eson, gusto kong m-makasama pa nang mas matagal ang anak ko...please..." Naikuyom ko ang kamao ko dahil sa labis na galit sa aking kalooban.
"Maria..." And why the h*ll his voice is so fre*king soft?! With feelings?! D*mn you!
And how dare him called my husband 'Eson'? That's my only nickname for him! Ang dami na niyang inaangkin!
Hindi porque siya ang ina ng panganay na anak ng asawa ko ay may karapatan na siya!
I am still a legal! I am his wife. I calm myself again.
"B-but..."
"Ayaw mo? Ayaw mong lumaki ang anak mo sa totoo niyang ina?! Kierson...please..."
I'm her biological mother, b*tch!
"Magagalit ang anak mo, kapag nalaman niya na hindi pala niya tunay na ina si Xena! K-kierson...please. Nakikiusap ako...gusto kong lumaki ang anak ko sa piling ko...pakiusap..." she pleaded and I know, she's crying now.
Dinig na rinig ko ang mga hikbi niya. Well, b*tch pinag-usapan na namin ito ng asawa ko. Kaya wala ka nang magagawa pa. Just accept the fact na mawawala ka na rin sa landas namin, soon.
"W-what do you want, Maria, hmm?" No! Don't listen to her, Kierson!
"Makipaghiwalay ka na sa asawa mo. Divorce her and marry me, m-marry me, Kierson at mabibigyan natin ng masaya at kompletong buhay ang mga anak natin..." Desperada!
"M-Maria..."
"Please! Divorce her or else! Ipapalaglag ko ang anak mo!" she said.
At parang may bomba ang sumabog sa ulo ko by hearing those words. W-what? Until now? M-may ginagawa pa rin sila habang nakatalikod ako? I thought... nagbago na siya?
I felt the pain inside my chest... Napahawak ako roon at may umalpas na luha sa aking pisngi. Kierson...paano mo ito nagawa sa akin?
Akala ko ba mahal mo na ako? A-akala ko ba tanggap mo na...
"Yes...yes, I'll divorce her. J-just stop crying. M-makakasama 'yan sa anak natin."
That's it. I lose, I lose him.
I'm Xena Carter-Mojeh, known as ruthless attorney, I'm a secret Mafia Queen and married with a f*cking playboy Dr. Kierson Mojeh. And this is my story... Complicated.
