Chasing In The Dark

28

"Mommy!"

Napabangon agad ako nang marinig ang sigaw nang anak. Dali dali kong hinanap kung saan nanggaling ang boses na iyon, and when he shouted again i found out it's from the bathroom. Dali dali akong pumunta duon and when i opened it my innocents eyes got dirty shits.

"Mom, your awake. Join us."

I look at my son sitting on the bath tub while Mone is standing infront of the shower receiving all the water it gives. I traced his body up and down, and his butt was so damn sarap hawakan. His back is so masculine, paano pakaya kapag humarap siya.

I bit my down lip, his so hot. Ito ba ang lalaking sinayang ako? Ito ba ang lalaking sinayang ko? Good God! Why did he made a man like that? How come? Unfair sa iba, kung ikukumpara ang katawan niya sa iba walang binatbat ito. Naglalaway na ako sakanya nang matigil dahil liningon niya ako.

He looked at me like i was caught on something that i did a crime. Heck, what an embarrassment to remember again. Tsk. He plastered a smirk on his face that turns out into a smile. He looks like a maniac man in his smile. I should told him to not smile again.

"Our son is right, join us baby."

Our son?

It was better than hearing the words my son. Who would think that this man has a son? No one. Deffinetly no one. I rolled my eyes on him, pero bago ko iyon ginawa ay tinignan ko muna si Sameir kung nakatingin ba sa amin but then no his not. His busy playing waters.

"No need. I will wait for you two to be done. Be hurry, Jeorge will pick me and Sameir."

After i said the last word, i saw his smirky face turned out into an emotionless face. He looked at me straightly, ako din sa mukha niya nakatingin hindi binababa ang mga mata sa makakasala na nilalang na meroon siya. Kailangang iwasan.

"No need, ako na maghahatid sa inyong dalawa."

"I already told you-"

"Why need him if im here?"

I was caught off guard because of what he said. He doesn't mean it right? Tell me. Maybe he slip his tounge because he was afraid that Jeorge may get Sameir away from him. Yes. Maybe that was the reason. Nothing to think amd conclude about, nothing to worry.

I cleared my throat.

"I will just be in the kitchen."

Hindi ko na hinintay ang sagot niya tumalikod na ako palayo doon. Im scared on what he will say next. I am scared that the two of us might fight and rant each other at our son's front. Natatakot akong layuan ako nang anak ko dahil lang sa nakikipag away ako sa ama niya.

Imagining me and my son having some quarrel because of my fault, my or his dad fault? I don't know anymore. Basta hanggang sa nasa harap namin si Sameir hinding hindi ko siya papatulan at aawayin. Maybe i will torture him inside my head but still i have to prevent things that can make my son hate me.

"Jeorge!"

I run towards his direction and hugged him tight. I never texted him like what Mone said earlier. Kanina pa ako naghahanda sa kusina nang makarinig ako nang busina sa labas kaya dali dali akong lumabas. Thank god the guard let him in, maybe he already got recognize by the people inside the house.
