ASKING FOR FORGIVENESS
Cassandra freezes as she is standing in front of us, squeezing her fingers. It appears that she is nervous, which is awkward. I have never seen her afraid in front of us; she always acts arrogantly.
"Sorry guys, I didn't mean to bother your dinner. It just so happens that we have made reservations at the same restaurant," she said politely. I guess it's safe to say that we were shocked at how she acted, calm and pleasant. There was no trace of sarcasm on her face, and even her choice of words seemed different.

I expect to wake up Sunday morning with the same vibes as yesterday with Maddox beside me. My phone ring awakens me at the break of dawn as the time on my phone tells me it's 5:15. It must be urgent, looking at Aunt Melanie calling me mark's on the screen."Hello, Aunt Melanie. What is it?" I answered but didn't put the call on speaker mode to avoid waking up Maddox beside me."Angel, sorry for waking you up this early. Your mom was rushed to the hospital at around 4 in the morning.

A knock on the door stops us from discussing what happened during our holiday on the island. What appears on our door is far from what I expect, Cassandra and her friends standing, holding a bouquet of flowers and fruits."Hey, Angel, I'm sorry if we are so late. We woke up late, like nearly 10 in the morning. We had to take our breakfast before leaving the island and come here quickly."Cassandra talks casually, which I am not used to. Her new behavior still comes as a shock to me. I don't even know if she's acting genuinely or just faking it."Cassy, guys, come on in." Finally, I can speak out of confusion."Thank you, Angel. Please take this."Cassandra hands me a lar

It's just mom and me in her hospital room; silence dominates between us. I sit on the chair beside mom's bed."Mom, it's just the two of us now. Can we talk?""If that's about my health, we will. I'm just waiting for someone, and then we can talk."I nod in agreement. "Who? Your doctor?""No, your father, Angelo."I freeze, and my mouth falls open, comprehending if I heard her right. Mom's eyes confirmed it. She looks at me without batting an eyelid."Angel, he is still your father."Mom obviously read me just by looking at my facial expressions.

The only thing that keeps me from venting my anger at him is having mom in one room.I gently rock mom's shoulder to wake her up. "Mom, he's here; wake up."Mom must be in deep sleep as she hasn't come back to her senses the third time I shake her arm."Angel, you can let your mom rest for a while. I can wait." Angelo says to me while I am desperately trying to wake mom up.I can't. I refuse to voice it out. I snort at the thought of it. It looks like mom is seriously sleeping like a baby, so I had no choice but to sit opposite Angelo's couch. I throw him a swift glance when his eyes are on mo
YOU ARE MY SUN MY FATHER, ANGELO
I loosen my arms around mom and wipe my tears. Angelo stops stroking his hand on my back as he stands beside me. He leans close and raises a hand like he is about to incline his arm around my shoulder, but he halts himself. I don't want to humiliate him, so I ignore it."What do we do now? What did the doctor say? What options do we have?""Angel, I don't want you to expect too much of me getting back to full recovery."I lean over, gather mom's hands and hold them tightly."Mom, don't talk like there's no hope in your health.
