I didn't know how I spent my seven days imprisonment inside our house. Papa fulfilled his punishment to me. I had a very boring life for whole seven days, I have no phone, I have no keys, I have nothing except from my clothes and food.

The seven days felt like seven years reminded me again how boring my life then. Mama and Papa never stayed on the house because both are busy, Papa is a Pastor in a known Christian church situated in Aklan at mas matagal pa ang pananatili sa church niya at ministry. Mama is a senior surgeon in Roxas at ganoon din.

See? They love their works more than they love me. Halos hindi na maka-uwi sa bahay para sa pagduty sa iba. Pero sariling anak, hindi mabalingan ng atensiyon. Kaya ayaw kong naiiwan sa bahay, ayaw kong nandito ako dahil nararamdaman ko kung gaano ako ka mag-isa at malungkot. Si Ate Elisha na paboritong anak ni Papa ay wala sa bansa. Ate Elisha is a missionary in Africa. She's there to spread the word of God, to create a ministry and put in the hearts of African that Jesus Christ is the only way to be saved. That's her mission. Sabihin niya tamo, umiiwas siya rito sa bahay kaya ako ang naiwang miserable. Naiwan akong mag-isa, at walang magawa.

The big bungalow house is very empty. Ako lang ang naroon at ang tatlo naming kasambahay na iwas din sa akin. I have no one to talk to and it's killing me to hell.

I tried to escape again, not one, not twice but thrice and I failed. Merong ni-hired na bodyguard si Papa para sa pagtakas ko at wala akong kawala sa heganteng dambuhala na iyon. Ang pangit pa.

I hate being alone. Nami-miss ko na ang mga kaibigan at mga roadtrip namin. I miss the way we gate crash on a party. I miss Gilgad, Geraldine, Rica and Gian. I miss hanging out with them. I miss my friends...

The day passed again.

The next morning, nagising nalang ako na inaayos na ng mga kasambahay ang mga damit ko sa maleta.

"Hey! What the hell are you doing with my clothes?" kahit ay kakagising lang ay agad ko silang nilapitan para patigilin sa ginagawa.

Excuse me, who gave them the permission to touch my precious clothes?

"Utos po ni Sir Adam na ayusin ang mga damit po nin'yo, Ma'am. Ngayon raw po ang araw na papasok kayo sa Divine Bible School." Marahan sagot ng katulong kaya wala sa oras tumaas ang dugo ko.

"Pastor Adam Villarde!" I shouted as I swiftly run down the grand staircase that connects the ground floor and second floor of our house. Dumiretso ako sa kusina kahit hindi pa naayos ang sarili. Ni-hindi pa ako nakahilamos.

Nang makapasok sa kusina at makita siyang tahimik na nag-uumagahan ay kahit hinihingal pa, pinutol ko siya sa ginagawa.

"Bakit inaayos ang mga damit ko sa itaas?!" I hysterically asked him. Napuno na naman ng galit ang puso ko dahil totohanin n'ya talaga ang sinabi niya. Wala talaga siyang pake sa akin kahit nasasakal na ako. Ang gusto n'ya lang, ay maging malinis ang imahe niya at ang pagpapadala sa akin sa bwesit na bible school na iyon ang paraan niya. He wants we to become a bible woman? Shit him. No way I'll go there! I only want my freedom back.
