Be With Him

Nanlalaki ang matang napa-tingin siya sa aking mata. In just a blink of an eye he’s already hugging me, he whispered his endless sorry while hugging me tightly

*Phone ringing*

Our hug was interrupted by a call on my phone, it has Zhackies name.

“Answer it” He said while slowly placing his hand on my waist.

“Hey li’l bro?” I asked bitting my lower lips, pinipigilan ang kilig na nararamdam ng simulang igalaw ni Adam ang katawan na namin na animong sumasayaw.

“Where are you?” I frozed hearing his mad voice.”Mom’s hear with….. Uncle Gab”

My jaw literally dropped and tears starting falling down to my cheeks

Ang kapal ng mukha.

“Ihatid mo’ko, please” halos hagulgol na sambit ko kay Adam dahilan kung bakit kunot noo siyang tumango at nagmamadaling tumakbo palabas kasama ako.

“You’re so damn fool to believe that you’re my friend, Santi”ayan ang bumungad na boses sa’ken pagka-baba ng kotse ni Adam

“Shut up!” I can also heared Zhackary’s shouted.

“What’s happening here?” I calmly asked, ramdam ko pa’rin ang presensya ni Adam sa likudan ko

“Oh, here’s the santa-santita pala e'” My forehead creased when a woman speak, She has a short hair almost like mine, thin lips and she’s wearing a dress that hugged her body perfectly

“Who are you?”I raised a brow, she laughed

“My, my…. I am Soriena Argien Morales” She smiled sweetly at me “Remember my name, bitch”

“Watch your words, Iena” My body frozed when I heard Adams warning tone at her and what? Iena? Does he know her?

“Omy, your boyfriend is here pala, Ija” My mother smiled at her and the Iena smiled back

“Well, Future-Husband, Tita” and they laughed, baliw amputangina.

“Uncle Gab, just go…. please” I used my most calm voice to Tito Gab to avoid another scene but my Evil mother glared at me

“Start to call him, Daddy, Izha anak” Sinalubong ko ang masama niyang tingin at nginitian siya ng bahagya

“Please leave, Mom…. Rizha” I called her name, telling her that I’m serious

“W-what did you just say?” She acted like she was about to cry, wiping her fake tears and sobbing “Anong sinabi ng Ama niyo?! Bakit niyo ako ginaganito?!” Sinugod niya ng sampal si Papa na ngayon ay umiiyak ngunit nginitian niya pa’rin si Mama

“Sinabi niya ang totoo” Zhack murmured quietly enough to heared by everyone “That you cheated on him while you’re bearing his child” Her eyes widened at sinampal din si Zhack

“Omy…” Maarteng nagtakip ng bibig si Iena na animong gulat na gulat sa nangyare habang si Uncle Gab naman ay lumapit kay Mama at hinawakan siya sa balikat

“Shut your mouth up, Anak sa labas” ny Mother smirked when pain acrossed in Zhackarys eyes.

“Just leave, Mom” I almost beg “Go with them, I don’t care, will you let Father live peacefully, please?” I can’t hide the stuttering, parang may naka-bara sa lalamunan ko

“Of course, I will leave this shithole” and they start walking out, just like that She leaves us like we’re not her family

Nang umalis si Mama napatingin ako kay Papa na ngayon ay tahimik na lumuluha, makikita sa itsura niya kung gano kasakit ang nararamdaman niya ngunit nagawa niya pa ding ngumiti sa’min

“I’m alright, okay?” He smiled at us “if you n-need anything I’ll be in my room” he assured me.

I saw how he wiped his tears but managed to smile at us.

“Sleep now, Zhackary” I said, he kissed my cheeks and nod to Adam before going to his room

“Uh…. Adam” I faced him “Can you stay here?”

“Is it okay with your Dad?” He slowly asked

“Aish, wag na nga epal ka” his eyes widened a bit shock.

“What did I do to you?” He asked but I just rolled my eyes “Okay, Okay… matulog kana sa kwarto mo” ngumiti siya bago naglakad palabas ng bahay

After changing into my pajama I went to my bed and tried to sleep but my mind was too busy thinking about my family.

Ngayon ay nararamdaman ko ang masira ang pamilya.

How can someone survive with a broken family? they’re so brave maybe malalagpasan ko ‘din ‘to?

I can still remember my sweet memories with my Mom, but it was all ruined after me knowing the truth.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Actually, wala akong kinakampihan maybe my Mom doesn’t really want their wedding, it was fixed marriage anyways but it’s still not right to cheat, ngunit kung ayaw niya bakit hindi siya makipag-devorce? siguro minahal niya din si Papa.

Sana…..

I let out a deep sighed at inabot ang isang notebook sa ilalim na drawer ng lamesa ko.

“Anak, I have something for you!” My eyes twinkled when I saw Mom hiding something in her back

“What is it, Mom?!” She handed me a small paper bag

It has a cute pink notebook inside, ‘REUZEKHIA’ was engraved in front

“Oh my gosh, Mom!” I jumped out in excitement, this is my third diary for this year! “Thankyou, Mom!”

After thanking her I went to my Brother’s room

“A-che, wha is tha?” I smiled when I heard his un-complete words, he’s just four while I’m already six

“This is our diary okay? you’ll put everything here!”I happily exclaimed, it makes him jump.

“I just miss the old us….” I whispered while caressing the book, nang buksan ko ito makikita agad na sulat kamay ni Zhackary ang nandito

Dear diary,

Yeyy!! Book namin ito ni Ate =) Love love ko po si Ate tapos si Papa tapos lalo na si Mama, ang ganda ganda ni Mama gusto ko kapag may work ako si Mama happy sakin, I love you Mommie, love niya rin ako!

-Love, Zhackie.

Under his letter there’s a picture of my Mom looking fierced as ever.

“I didn’t know that we’re gonna end up like this, I hope you still care for us mom….. especially to Dad” tears started falling down again.

Kung kaya lamang, gusto kong bumalik sa nakaraan….. kung saan masaya pa ang lahat.
