Save me Chapter 25 " Hurt him "
I swallowed the lump on my throat and carry my feet to the living room where my father is. Back when I was a child I remembered the astonishment I have for him. My father in my eyes is the kindest, bravest and the best father in the world. Maybe because we didn't see and be with him as we grow up. The need to work outside the country to provide for our needs is what they prioritized. Bata pa lang ako iinuukit ko na sa isip ko kung anong itsura ni Papa. Kagaya ba ng mga tatay ng kaklase ko? Malaki rin kali ang katawan niya? What about his voice? Does it lies in a bass timbre of voice? As it should be because he's a man? or Is he soft spoken?I was in a kindergarten that time when my mother broke the news. For the first time in my life, my father will not be faceless in my mind anymore. The silouhette inside the young Athena's mind soon will have an eyes, ears, mouth, and a lips. But what she wants to see, more so to feel is a fatherly love. Ano bang pakiramda

I'm not yet done... The need to release my anger is so adamant and no one can ever stop me. My father is just staring at me his face is void of any emotion. Habang ang kaniyang girlfriend ay nanlalaking matang nakatingin sa akin." I'm done putting up with your bullsh*ts! " I don't care anymore if he's my father because the one moment he stepped out of this door years ago his position in my life became unclear.I know parents are humans too. They can be sad, broken and can be vulnerable too at times. Wala akong sinasabi na hindi siya pwedeng umiyak. Na hindi siya pwedeng malungkot just because he's our father because before he is a father to us, he is a husband to my mother. I can't clearly see them anymore because my tears are blinding me. The air smells anger, betrayal and... falling apart.We're a family . He should cried with us, grieved and mourned with us. So that in the process we can be able to give strength and encouragement to each ot
Save me Chapter 27 " Please don't hurt Her "
Nanghihina kong pumasok sa kuwarto ko at umupo. I am emotionally and physically drained. Ang bigat bigat ng dibdib ko na para bang may libo libong hollow blocks ang nakadagan dito. But I also feel empty. What an irony. Hindi ko na namalayang andito pala si Elijah. Bigla tuloy akong nahiya dahil narinig niya ang lahat ng pag tatalo namin kanina.I close the door and just like that darkness consumed each of one of us inside the room. But I don't feel fear, it's comforting even. Ang madidilim niyang bilog na mata ay nakatuon sakin ng pumasok ako. But unlike what I expected, I don't see pity there. Hindi ko siya mabasa, wala akong mabasang emosyon sa mukha niya.He stared at me momentarily, but went to my side a few seconds to give me the most soothing and tears triggering embrace. Earlier, I thought my drama is over but his touch enabled me to cry once again. Sabi nila kapag niyayakap ka daw tatahan ka na pero siguro kung yung yayakap sayo ay yung taong gusto

Today is the day where Elijah and I will spend our day with Abby. Tuwang-tuwa si Abby noong sinabi sa kaniya ni Elijah na igagala siya nito." Talaga po? " the thrill and excitement in her voice is palpable. Hindi siya mapakali at kagaya ng ibang bata naging maligalig. My heart clench at the thought that her childhood is not as happy as like the other children in her age. Minsan nakikita ko siyang tumitingin sa laruan ng ibang bata dahil wala siyang kahit isang kagaya noon. Insecurity is in her eyes and as much as I want to buy something like that for her, money is an issue. Wala kaming perang pambili noon kaya ang ginagawa ko ako ang nakikipag laro sa kaniya. One tear had escaped from my right eye. Agad ko rin yung pinunasan para hindi makita ng kapatid ko." Of course! San mo ba gustong pumunta? " Elijah is good at this. Hindi ko alam kung dahil ba teacher siya o ano. I can't believe that he and Abby would get along right away in their first

Bumyahe kami papuntang Laguna ng ilang oras dahil gusto nga ni Abby sa Enchanted Kingdom. I can't help but fill my eyes with the wonders of the earth and with the tall buildings built by talented architects and engineers.Ngayon lang rin kami makakalayo sa bahay namin. Ang makapunta at makasakay sa kotse ay isa ng malaking pag papala para sa amin kaya sinusulit ko talaga. This is what I'm praying for and God answered my cries." Are you hungry?

" Ate don tayo. "" Ate dito pala. "" Gusto ko rin don Kuya. " Abby is so excited that she can't pick properly among the available rides in the Amusement park.Narito na hinatak kami sa Bumbling Boulders tapos maya-maya hinatak niya si Elijah sa Carousel tapos noong nakita niya ang Ferris Wheel hinatak niya kaming parehas. All we can do is to laugh because of her cuteness. Pinisil ni Elijah ang kaniyang pisngi para huminahon ang kapatid ko saglit." Calm down Abby. Don't worry we will ride all the rides that you want, kay'? " Abby nodded willingly. Alam niya na kailangan niyang kumalma para makipili siya ng maayos.

But he's still asking our own point of view regarding about the said term of course with examples based on facts. Hindi niya pa masyadong ipinapaliwanag ang term nanghihingi agad siya ng examples. I rolled my eyes inwardly.Tumingin ako sa harapan at nakita ko ang prof ko na may hawak na libro habang naka sandal sa teacher's desk. He's in mid 40's I guess.
