ANDREA’S POV
“What the heck is going on in this world! F*ck! Now all of the foods I am about to deliver are on the road!! Bulish*t!”
I'm not sure how to voice my dissatisfaction at the moment, but I'm incredibly irritated!
The first is that my motorcycle is in poor condition, therefore I must commute to send all of my deliveries. Second, I'm in serious problems with my employer, and third, those godd*amn wealthy, ignorant individuals believe that money can buy everything!!
They are stupid! They are… GRRRRRRR!! I AM SO F*CKED UP!!
“Hey! Could you just move out of the way?!”
I regain my composure and realize I'm still in the center of the road.
"I'm sorry," I say, and then step to the side.
I've already cleaned up after myself on the road, and I wouldn't be able to deliver the meal anyhow. These will probably be thrown away, but I've been thinking that there are a lot of street dogs running around with no food, so I'll put it here on the side rather than tossing it all away and allowing it to decay.
I grabbed the money that the driver had given me earlier and put it in my pocket. It's fairly large, and instead of being removed from the work, I could use it to pay for the damages.
That driver gives me the creeps. He looked at me as if I were a ghost. He's too astonished and... I don't know, I'm not sure what he's feeling at the moment, but he's odd.
*Phone rings*
"Where have you gone?" " From the other end of the line, my mother inquired.
"I'll be there in a minute,"
After I answered, I hung up the phone. My mother is still awake despite the fact that it is late. I admire how she is very concerned and considerate with me, but she is also putting her health at risk. I've tried to persuade her not to do it, but she's stubborn as hell and won't listen.
I dash back home, where my mother is eagerly waiting for me at the door. That is one of the most valuable things I've ever seen.
"How are you doing today?" my mom inquired.
“Great. Even if certain scenarios are difficult, I am able to handle them. To me, that's a piece of cake!" I boasted to her.
I may be the world's most hypocritical person for concealing my true feelings, but I couldn't let them down. Who should they rely if I reveal my vulnerabilities? Whatever happens, I must be strong. In our household, that is my job. For them, I want to offer my all and make sacrifices. Because they are the best parents, I want them to be happy.
I went to my room once we got inside and decided to relax. It's been a long and tiring day for me. A lot of things have happened, and it's draining to keep thinking about them. Anyway, I'd best get some rest.

“Good morning sunshine!! Happy Birthday!!”
My mother and father greeted me in unison, which shocked me. They're both inside my room, smiling, and all I can see in their faces is pure bliss. It made me grin right away. Those faces are priceless. I only hope I could provide them with all they want and desire in life.
My mother came close to embracing me without wearing off her smiles. I embraced her back when my father caught my attention. He started rolling on his wheelchair heading to me so I decided to stand ani d embrace him. Those are definitely warm and soothing.
"Thanks, ma, pa," I said with a grin and a big sigh. " You're the most wonderful parents on the planet!"
I needed to act upbeat in front of them, so I did. My father has been frustrated because he is crippled, he is unable to provide for his family, and I am forced to work for them. I had to stop going to school and start working since papa damaged his legs in an accident and is now unable to walk and must rely on a wheelchair. Mama is unable to do so because she must take care of papa.
“What do you want to eat later?” my mother asked.
“You don’t have to do that ma, It’s okay if there’s none. Having you two is more than enough" I told them.
“Even if it's only a small celebration, we want to provide it to you, please”
How can I say no to you ma? There's no point in arguing with her because I know she won’t alter her opinion.
“My favorite? Adobo?” I unsurely quested and we giggled.
I just don’t want to bother them but if they want to, that would be very beautiful.
After I finished ready myself for work, I went downstairs for breakfast. They've already started eating and have invited me to join them.
"By the way, ma, pa, here's the money," I handed the money to them.
They are apprehensive at first but eventually, they take it. It will be used to pay for bills and papa's maintenance.
"You haven't received your wage yet. Where did you acquire the money?"
Oh, sh*t! what reason I should say??
I look at them biting my lower lip, “Don’t lie to us” dad said.
I suppose I'll have no choice but to tell them the truth.
"I almost got hit by a car—-"
“WHAT?! WHO?! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME—-"
“Dad! Dad! Don't freak out! I'm ok! Look. See? I'm all right!" I made an attempt to persuade them.
I expected them to overreact, so I had to make a counter-statement assuring them that I was fine.
“Who is it?” dad asked.
"I'm not sure, but I'm sure they're wealthy. They handed me that money to make up for the inconvenience, but I refuse to accept it since what occurred was unacceptably bad! " I declared.
They appear relieved, and I feel the same way.
“I'm sorry if you have to make such a sacrifice. Only if I am---”
“Pa! I'm not complaining at all! I'm glad I was able to assist you, and I'm also your daughter! We should be helping each other through thick and thin, right?"
I don't want them to believe they're a burden to me because they aren't. I'm weary at times, but I'm not going to give up on them. They are the center of my universe, and I adore them.
Mom said, "We're so blessed to have you" and that instantly makes me really overwhelmed.
"I love you both," I rose up and hugged them.
I'm not going to give up on them, no matter what happens. They are the finest, and I love them more than my entire existence.
Dad responded quietly, "Through thick and thin."
They have a special place in my heart and that will never change.
After I finish dining, I say my goodbyes and it's time to return to my daily grind. It's time to get down to business.
"Bye ma, pa! See you later! " I told them and flung open the door.
“Hi! Greetings on your special day!"
When a man stood in front of our door and greeted me, my mouth fell. He's grinning broadly, and I'm still taken aback.
“Enzo!”
I instantly wrap my arms around him. Oh, my goodness! I was sorely missing him!!
