Chapter Twenty Eight
SHE'S sitting in front of her laptop while her friends, Alwyn and Erza laughing about something. but her mind is wondering about what her dad told her yesterday.
-----
“Yes, Eve. Enrico Gomez is your mom's ex- fiancee” her dad seriously said.
Napatitig sya sa daddy nya bago nilingon ang mommy nyang tahimik lang na naka upo sa sofa.
“It's their wedding day, when Enrico didn't showed his self in church” I stared at my mom, I feel hurt about her past.
What should I do if it happens to me?
“Did he explain why he did not show his self?” tanong nya sa daddy nyang seryoso nang nakatingin sa kanya. “I mean, it's not that I want him to marry you mom. I'm just, you know, curious ” agad na pahabol na dagdag sa tanong.
Her dad seems jealous. Seriously daddy? Nandito na kami't lahat, nagseselos ka parin, e nagtatanong lang naman ako.
“He was badly drunk a night before our wedding day. And slept with Lalaine” tipid na ngumiti sa kanya ang mommy nya.
I saw pain in my mom's eyes, but it suddenly subside and replaced with a genuine smile.
“Did you confront Lina's mom after that, mom?” dagdag na tanong nya. Pero agad nag react ang daddy nya kaya natawa nalang sya rito.
“Chill dad. I'm just asking, you know. You're so possessive to mom!" kantyaw nya sa daddy nya na sabay ding tinawanan ng mommy nya.
Well, thanks to him and my mom is happily married with dad.
-----
Buong gabi nya yung inisip. Is it really possible that Mr. Gomez did it? Is his love for mom is easy to replaced by a temptation.
If he love mom, why did he get drunk and slept with another woman a night before their wedding? Aren't my mom enough for him?
“Hoy Ateng! Kanina ka pa naka titig dyan sa laptop, baka biglang lalabas si sadako dyan. Sige ka!” tinitigan nya lang si Erza at Alwyn na kunot ang nuo ng mga ito.
“Impossible pala talagang di magkatuluyan ang dalawang tao kahit na kinabukasan ay haharap na sana sila sa altar no.” salubong ang kilay nina Alwyn at Erza na nakatingin sa kanya.
She heaved a sigh and decided to tell her mother's past to her friends.
After the story telling, just like her, her friend's reactions is like her. Shocked and confused.
“Pero bakit iba yata ang kwentong alam ni Lina? Bakit sa kwento nya ay si Tita Shane ang nang agaw?” litong tanong ni Erza sa kanya.
“Obviously Ateng, Lina's mom change the story. Nakakahiya nga naman sa parte nya na ikwento ang kalandian nya sa anak nya.” naiiritang sagot ni Alwyn dito.
“Tsaka, halata naman kasi. Minana kaya ni Lina ang kalandiang taglay ng ina nya.” sumasang ayon naman silang dalawa sa sinabi ni Alwyn.
“Anong sabi ni Rix?” -Erza
“Just like me, he got mad at Mr. Gomez, yet thankful for what he did” -sya
“WHAT?? You're thankful that you're mom was hurt because of her failed wedding?” singhal ni Erza sa kanya. She rolled her eyes in annoyance.
“Why not? Dahil kung nagkatuluyan si Mom at Mr. Gomez, walang Shantal Eve Clemente na magpapalingon sa mga lalaki rito, at wala kayong Shanon Evrix Clemente na titilian.”- napangiti nalang sya dahil sa sarkastikong itsura ng mga kaibigan. Umingos lang ang mga ito kaya tinawanan nalang nya.
Sometimes, wrong choices bring us to the right places.
My mom and Mr. Gomez did not really meant for each other, and God made his way, but in a painful way.
