Theta's POV
"Theta.." rinig ko na may tumawag sa akin, lumingon ako para tingnan kung sino ang tumawag sa akin.
Si Prime!!!
Tinitigan ni Prime si Vector at tumingin ulit sa akin; pabalik balik ang tingin niya. Tumingin ako kay Vector para humingi ng tulong, hindi ko alam kung anong gagawin ko.
"P-Prime, anong ginagawa mo dito?" tanong ko sa kanya
"Gusto ko lang sanang bisitahin si Fox kung okay lang." sabi ni Prime at ngumiti sa akin
"Si Fox nga ba, o ang nanay ni Fox?" sabi ni Vector habang nakatingin sa ibang direksyon.
"Bakit may problema ba kung pati si Theta bibisitahin ko?" seryosong tanong ni Prime kay Vector
"Wala namang problema dun, pero bigla ka na lang kasi sumusulpot kahit hindi ka naman kailangan." seryosong sagot ni Vector.
"So anong pinapalabas mo?! Na pinipilit ko lang ang sarili ko kay Theta ganun ba?!" sabi ni Prime na gusto nang manapak
"Tama na. Kung gusto niyong magbugbugan wag kayo dito sa bahay ko, hindi ito boxing ring." pagpigil ko sa kanilang dalawa na natauhan rin sa sinabi ko.
"Sorry Theta, I will be going now." pagpapaalam ni Vector at tiningnan pa rin ng masama si Prime. Tumango lang ako sa kanya.
Pumasok na si Vector sa sasakyan niya at umalis na. Tahimik lang kaming dalawa ni Prime habang tinitingnan ang papalayong sasakyan ni Vector.
"I'm sorry Theta, hindi ko lang napigilan ang sarili ko." sabi ni Prime na nanlulumo
"Okay lang iyon Prime, pero sana wag nang maulit iyon. Alam kong may samaan kayo ng loob pero please lang wag niyo kaming idamay nang anak ko." seryoso kong sabi
"Of course Theta, I will do anything for you." Prime said as he held my hand and smiled sweetly at me. I also smiled back at him.
Akma na siyang pumasok sa bahay pero pinigilan ko siya.
"Prime wait," pagpigil ko sa kanya
"What is it Theta?" Prime looked back and asked
I just took a deep breath and looked at him in the eyes.
"Can you give me some time to think?" he just looked at me with a puzzled look.
"Can you give me some time to think about us?" I asked again
"Is it because of Vector?" He asked. I swear he sounded hurt.
I just stood there quietly.
"Theta, I'm sorry pero parang mahirap yata ang pinapagawa mo sa akin. I was the one who was always on your side; I was with you when you are hurting, and now that the man who hurt you came back you just want me to go away?! Isn't it a bit unfair Theta?" Prime said while stopping his tears from falling.
"It is not about Vector, It's just I want some time alone and some time to think about the things happening around me. I know you are on my side, I know you are with me when I am hurting and I am forever grateful to you. But I just wanted to be alone for now." I explained to him.
"You wanted to be alone or you just wanted to be with Vector without me following you around? What did he said to you this time? Did he said he is a changed man? Did he said he loves you that's why you just throw me away like trash?!" sabi ni Prime habang hinahawakan ang balikat ko.
"What the hell are you talking about Prime? I really wanted to be alone and to think what is best for my son and myself." sabi ko habang nagpupumiglas sa hawak ni Prime.
"Ginawa mo namang rason si Fox. Alam mo Theta, hindi naman si Fox ang problema dito eh. Ikaw ang problema, ginawaga mo lang dahilan si Fox para mapalapit ulit kay Vector. Ano ba kasing meron sa gagong iyon at hindi mo maibigay sa akin ang pagmamahal mo?!" sigaw ni Prime habang hinihigpitan ang hawak sa balikat ko
"A-ano ba P-Prime, N-nasasaktan ako!" sigaw ko sa kanya habang nagpupumiglas parin. Natauhan naman si Prime at binitawan ako.
"I-I'm so sorry Theta di ko sinasadya." paghingi ng tawad ni Prime
"J-Just go home for now Prime. Gusto ko nang magpahinga." sabi ko sabay talikod kay Prime
"Theta please talk to me. I'm really sorry sa mga sinabi ko."pigil ni Prime sa akin
I just look at him straight in the eyes and I slowly shakes my head.
"We'll talk if you can think straight Prime; but I think now is not the right time." sabi ko at pumasok na sa bahay. Naiwan si Prime na nakatayo sa labas ng bahay.
Tiningnan ko lang si Prime sa labas nang bahay na nakatayo parin.
"Anak, si Prime ba iyon? Bakit hindi mo pinapasok?" tanong ni mama
"Wag mo nang papasukin ma, hindi pa ako handang kausapin siya." sabi ko
"Dahil na naman ba kay Vector?" tanong ni mama habang niyayakap niya ako.
Tahimik lang akong tumango.
"Masama bang pangaraping mabuo ang pamilya ko ma?" tanong ko kay mama
"Lahat naman tayo gustong magkaroon ng kumpleto at masayang pamilya. Pero alam rin nating walang pamilyang perpekto; as long as masaya tayo sa taong nakakasama natin sa iisang bubong yun ang mahalaga." she said while patting my head.
I just sighed and hugged my mother tighter
"Totoo nga na walang perpektong pamilya, but you are the most perfect parents to me." I smiled at my mother and hugged her again.
"Nambola ka pa talaga." my mother giggled as she hugged me again.
"No hugs for me?" tanong ni papa na nakatayo sa likuran ko.
"Of course there is always some space for you here." sabi ni mama at niyaya si papa na sumali sa yakap
My Father walked towards us and hugged us tightly. I glanced at the window to look for Prime but he is not there anymore. Maybe he went home; I just shrugged and hugged back my parents.
