Overview : Someone's about to say hello to her psychopath ex-mother-in-law
Quote : The best way to escape from the past is not to avoid or forget it, but to accept & forgive it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“He’s a cutie patootie isn’t he?” uttered sweetly by Rose who cradled her 6-pound newborn baby boy on her arms, She hummed in a free way while watching the infant sleep in her arms
It was 7 in the evening when Roselyn delivered her healthy baby boy. The nurse told her to rest but she was stubborn and insisted she wont go to sleep unless she’ll see her own baby boy.
Roselyn may looked tired and worn out now but she still managed to smile as she gazes down at her little baby boy
“I must say..” I sat beside Roselyn and slightly pinched the cheek of the cute little puny-head --- “He’s like a little version of that man on the foot of your bed”
I pointed out at Gerard who kept on capturing pictures since God-knows how long. Indeed, the little baby reminds me a lot of Gerard’s baby picture before. Same nose, Same eyes and same broad forehead
“You could say that again”
“Smile!!!” then a flash of light literally had us there
“Ge! Stop that! nagpipicture ka, mukha nga kong zombie” Roselyn protest and covered her face with her bare hand
“Ano ka ba, Honey ..”
Gerard walked straight beside Roselyn and then gave his baby boy a kiss on the forehead and kiss on the lips for his wife
“I’m sure Rossard wont mind” and then run his hand on the forehead sleeping child
Such a sweet family.. I wonder if ganto din kame ni Iñigo kung magkakababy
“I called Tita Marilou, Ge. She’s actually on her way now” Iñigo said as he walked and closed the door behind him. He slid his iphone back to his pocket and then added ..
“Did I hear it right? You actually named my nephew, Rossard?” A brow was arched at Iñigo’s face before he sat down at the couch near the Tv
“Its Roselyn—” He raises both of his left hand and then the next in the air “and Gerard” Joined the two hands and uttered with a smile “Rossard”
Iñigo chuckled “Right. Very Creative. I never thought of that” and rolled his eyes as he grabbed the remote close to him
But instead of the remote, He suddenly threw a pillow on Gerard’s face "Bading!"
“Hoy! Foul yun ah!” Gerard complained and was about to throw back the pillow when the door suddenly burst open
“When will you boys ever grow up?” an old husky masculine voice uttered as he walked through the door with a middle age woman in her white robe
“Parang Di’ ka pa sanay sa kanila, Gilbert” She said and patted the back of the man
“Mom” Iñigo muttered in surprise. He stood up from the couch and then immediately approached the gorgeous middle age woman who has the same brown eyes as his. On the other hand, Gerard also did the same and gave his father a pat-hug
Gerard’s Father, Dr. Gilbert Enriquez is known well for his great achievement in the field of medicine as a neurologist.
While Dr. Ingrid Enriquez-Bustamante, as what Ate Diane mentioned before she flew back to US, isn’t only Miss World 1977 but also a novice cardiologist in the said institution
Tito Gilbert suddenly was surprised when he saw me there sitting beside her daughter-in-law’s bed. I smiled weakly at him and stood up from where I was
Maybe he thinks I’m a masochist for being there. I was cheated but here I am at the side of Gerard’s wife
“Nina! The ever reasonable and forgiving Nina. Despite everything, Thank you!” Tito Gilbert said as he held my both of my hands for gratitude
“I really didn’t do anything sir”
“Nonsense! Gerard told me that you were there all through out the delivery. Thank you so much!”
Then he turned his direction back to Roselyn
“Im so sorry Hija I wasn’t there for you. I was scheduled for another operation on that very moment”
Roselyn smiled at her father-in-law and said “Its okay, Dad”
“Can I hold him?” asked by Tito Gilbert who looked eager on holding his grandchild
“Of course” Roselyn handled down the baby to her Father-in-law and genuinely smiled at the old man
A knock came to our door revealing a sophisticated-looking woman wearing a classic Tom ford red mesh sleeve midi dress with a deep V-neck and a wide velvet belt around her waist
and by the looks of the shades of her lipstick, Mac Crème D’Nude, I could tell it was Gerard’s mother
Gerard's psychopath of a mother
“Marilou!” Tita Ingrid lock her on an embrace and then beso-ed. She was bringing with her five heart-shaped blue balloons and a black forest cake from Red ribbon.
“Did I miss anything?”
She seemed oblivious that I was there on the same room as her .. Just thinking about her reminds me of those days..
I could still remember how she said it to me .. those words
“To be frank, I don’t even like you for my only son.. not even a single strand from you”
You’re probably wondering why she hated me that much, well.. it started off when Gerard wasn’t on the deans list anymore and she practically blew off all the blame to me
She blames me about Gerard’s decision of not proceeding to Medicine after graduation and certainly she’s not entirely please about me being a Cum laude at all
“You’re not even a good influence to him
Gerard's Pyschopath of a mother .. Mrs. Maria Lourdes Azucena-Enriquez RN, MN, PhD, Director of Interdisciplinary studies at Ateneo
Wide eyed and surprise, She suddenly was frozen in front of her husband when she saw me right there before her eyes.
“What is she doing here?” Gerard’s mother scowled while she gave me a disgust look
Tita Ingrid seemed clueless of what was happening between us and so is Iñigo
“Marilou” warned by Tito Gilbert
but the woman wasn’t faze by her husband’s word. She was about to approach me one on one when Gerard suddenly came to the picture and block her mother’s attempt to pull me out of the room
“Mom. She was there for Rose the whole time. Please just acknowledge her even for once” Gerard pleaded and threw a nod on Iñigo, a non-linguistic message that they both seem to understand
Iñigo obviously got the message and then stood up
“Tita, Tito, Mom.. We better get going—” He took my hand and pulled me from the suffocating air on that corner of the room “—Gabi na so, Hatid ko na si Nina. “
“Sige, Igo. Take care on your way will you?”
Iñigo just waved his hands on his mother and completely closed the door
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Woah! That was really intense air going on between you and Tita Marilou”
“Yeah. What more can I say?”
“What was that all about?” his brows were pulled together in manner that shows how curious he was
“You don’t wanna know, Babe. You don’t really want to know” I said shaking my head in disapproval
We're now inside Iñigo’s gray Lamborghini Murcielago on our way back home at Meg’s flat when he decided to grab some dinner on Jollibee through a drive thru service at Makati Avenue
“Good evening, Sir ..Ma’am. What can I get you?” We were graced by a young lad wearing a red cap on his head. He was smiling at us as he took a paper and a pen
“2 Champ 1/3 pound beef patties, Jolly Crispy Fries – 4 Cheese, Peach Mango Pie, 2 Coke Floats, Choco Crumble Sundaes and a Strawberry Sundae”
“Okay, sir! Be back after 15 minutes”
“Ang dami mo naman yatang inorder?” I said surprised the number of take outs he asked
“I thought you’re hungry kaya yun..”
“Are you saying na matakaw ako? And what’s with Strawberry Sundae?!”
“and what’s wrong with Strawberry Sundae?”
I broke into roars of laughter while he was left there completely confuse
“I don’t know .. its just that I thought you’re such a barako man.. You and Strawberry sundae? Really? Parang ‘di bagay”
“Masarap kaya! Besides strawberries are one of my favorites” He said with much confidence in his eyes
“you liked strawberries even before pa?”
and he nodded which made me chuckled as loud as before
“So that explains why you have those numbers of strawberry flavored condom on your cabinet na lagi mong ginagamit pag---”
The light illuminated from the drive thru window was suddenly blocked. I turned around and saw the same Jollibee crew who stood before us awhile ago
I leaned at Iñigo’s ear and whispered “How long has he been standing there?”
Iñigo was obviously amused as he handled the bill towards they guy
“I don’t know”
“Thank you for coming to Jollibee, Sir..” and when he turned glances at me he was a little bit hesitant for I don’t know why..
“Uhm—Maam”
With the smile of victory plastered across Iñigo perfectly sculpted face, He maneuvers the car to the other side of the road and straight to Makati Avenue we go
“Argh! Why didn’t you tell me he was there all along?”
“Why would I? I like it when you blush” He pinches my nose and gave me a quick kiss on the lips
“Reminds me of those strawberries”
Ako? Strawberries?!
and then he broke into deep long laughter along the way
Iñigo has gone loco over strawberries!
