Mommy called the security not long after.
They sent Rayburn to the hospital and now, we're in Papa's private office. Dumating 'din si Mommy Jel at nang makita n'ya ako ay bigla s'yang naglakad papunta sa akin at yinakap ako ng mahigpit.
Just like that, I cried in her arms.
"Baby, Mnem ko. Sorry, baby sorry. Forgive me, Mommy loves you wo much" She said like how she usually lambing all of us
Iyon ang paulit ulit n'yang inuusal habang yakap ako at hinahaplos ang likod.
As I felt her familiar hug, my heart calmed down.
"Mommy, miss po kita." Turan ko matapos n'yang sapuin ang mukha ko. Tumatango s'ya habang pinaglalakbay ang mata sa buo kong mukha at katawan.
Si Mely naman ay naka kandong kay Mommy Maia.
After the incident a while ago, Mely face became serious. Sinukan kong kausapin pero tahimik lang s'ya at nagsusumiksik sa gilid ko.
Now, we're all sitting, my family is surrounding me with their questioning eyes.
Kahit pa ganito, inaalala ko si Rayburn. They sent him to the hospital but he didn't want to. Pinwersahan pa s'ya at pansin kong nang kinausap s'ya ni Mommy ay bigla nalang s'yang sumunod.
" He was the one who fathered you?" It's Augustous who spoke.
Hindi ko alam bakit nandito ang lalaking 'to eh hindi naman s'ya pamilya. Nakiki sali akala mo walang sariling problema sa buhay.
"Alistair was Ravel first son." Papa Winter said.
Hindi ako nagsalita, kasi sa totoo lang ay wala naman akong alam sa pamilya ni Rayburn. I don't know anyone because he never introduced me to them.
Ganoon ba ako ka-walang kwenta para hindi maipakilala?
I can't believe my stupidity then. Ni hindi man lang ako na kuryoso kung bakit. Sobrang kontento ko ba noon at kahit kaming dalawa lang, masaya na ako?
Did Rayburn really treated me as his girlfriend?
I sighed with that thought.
"Uuwi na po kami ni Mely sa Pampanga mamaya." Bagkus iyon ang lumabas sa bibig ko.
"What? pero hindi mo pa nakita ang kambal. They misses you. B-baka pwede ka namang magtagal, Mnem? You can sleep in your old room. Maayos pa iyon baby, hindi namin pinagalaw." May pag aalangan sa boses ni Mommy Jel. Pero hindi ko inaasahan ang narinig ko sakanya.
They kept my room? But its been years now.
I felt a lump in my throat because I finally realize. Were they waiting for me?
"Uuwi? Matapos iyong kanina, uuwi ka? You can't run away, probably by now. The whole society knows who you are and it's just a matter of time that your face will be in the different column sites."
"Eh makipag suntukan ka ba naman! Akala ko pag-aari mo ang mundo!" Hindi ko mapigilang sigaw. Atsaka ko s'ya inirapan.
He scoffed. "You're the one who announced to the whole world about him. Don't try putting the blame on me. Tsk."
Before I could even fired back, Papa interrupted.
"Stop." He said.
I shut my mouth because of that, but it didn't stop me from glaring at Augustous side.
He rolled his eye. Jerk!
"Why did you kept it secret from us? You knew who was the father of your child." Papa spoke.
