"Natug ka?" out of my frustration, it was almost a joke when I said it.
He was about to burst into a laugh but I glared at him so he stopped himself and fake a cough.
"Sorry, can't help."
I only rolled my eyes at him. Lumayo ako kakaunti sa kanya para umupo doon sa parang may bench kaharap ang dagat. God, I can stay here like forever. This is the view that I've been dying for.
Imagine, having a tiny house near on a seaside alone. Free to do what you'd love to. Heaven. Just by looking at the sea inspires me to do better, to have a better day.
That is one of the reasons why I am saving my money. Maybe at eighteen, I can buy my own lot and build a tiny house on a seaside.
"By the way ga. I remember, you are interested at our city lot right?" he asked. Doon ko palang siya nakitang tumabi na pala sa akin. I guess I've been dreaming too much.

“Sorry for asking this stupid question but if you regret marrying dad, why did you marry him then in the first place?” I asked him with all the strength that I owned for a second.Now that it makes sense, I can't help but have questions in my head. Why?“Because I was already pregnant with your brothers,” she answered as she wiped her tears off.I couldn't even tell if she's saying the truth. All I could feel is her, lying.“Then why did you committed another mistake again?”“What mistake?”“Having me.”“No. You're not a mistake and all of you will never be a mistake.”I laughed. “Cut the drama Ma. So why? Why having us when you did not love dad? I know he committed a lot of mistakes but he's still our daddy.”“Because I had no choice! My parents were nowhere to find and he raped me. He raped me. Your father raped m

“Congrats baby! You made it! You're already an agriculturist!” he congratulated me and kissed me on my cheek.“Thank you, finally.” I stated and smiled happily.“Dad is in the car. Let's meet him he can't able to stand, you know dad is getting old, arthritis.” Rawl said as he offered me the flower.“Gag0 ka pa rin talaga Kuya.” biro ko sa kaniya at pabirong hinampas sa kanya ang bigay niya sa aking bulaklak. “Where's your twin by the way?” I asked when I can't see even Namiels shadow starting from the program.“She's with dad's nurse, lumalandi na naman siguro ang gag0.” sagot pa niya at tumawa.“And your girlfriend?” I asked her again, talking about Lau. An old friend of mine.“Nowhere to be found.” he only replied and made our atmosphere silent.&nbs

“Uhm. Excuse me, Dad, Kuya. Me and my friends are planning to meet right now.” I made an excuse again. Queen of Excuses! I laughed on my mind. I cannot help but to feel nervous too. I never expected to see the people whom I am hiding from. Well not exactly hiding, hindi ko lang sila gustong makita. Not because of anger, but the last time we saw each other might be the reason that made me feel it's awkward. “Oh?” Namiel asked, probably to tease me. By the way that he's looking at me, I know what he'd like to tell me. Namiel may always be cocky but his instincts were never be wrong. Kaya ayaw ko na lang rin siyang kontrahin minsan. Ako lang din ang maiinis kapag malaman niya ang totoo. “Oo nga, nakaligtaan ko lang kanina.” dagdag ko pa sa kanila. All of them were watching me, waiting for more excuses, I would say. Ev

“Oh my goooood! They are so adorable!” hindi ko mapigilang sumigaw sa tuwa nang makita ko sila.I can't help but to pinch their cheeks one by one. They even giggled that made me pinch them more.Having a baby fever is no joke.They're more likely a year old to four years old kids. Ang lalaki na nila at saka ang dami ko na talagang utang dito sa kanila. Iniisa-isa ko silang binigyan nang yakap at halik sa pisngi habang hindi pa talaga ako nakakapigil na manggigigil sa mga bata. Buti na lang rin lumapit rin sa akin sila kahit hindi pa nila ako nakikita sa personal. Ang huling lumapit sa akin ay ang pinakabata sa lahat kaya kinarga ko ito sa aking bisig at isinayaw-sayaw.“Oh? Inggit ka?” a friend asked me for fun. “Gawa ka na ring sayo, graduate ka na rin naman!” she added then chuckled as she hugged her husband.&

The next day came and as I opened my eyes, the first thing that came up unto my mind is the property title. Good thing that they're all in the dining table, eating their breakfast. They greeted their good mornings as I sat on my usual chair.“Uh. I saw an important paper on my desk, thank you by the way.” I said as they are looking at me.Namiel choked then I saw Dad glaring at him so he immediately drink his water.“Oh that.” Rawl cleared his throat then said. “Matagal na sana naming balak sabihin sayo kaso busy ka pa sa pag-aaral mo at ayaw naman naming magambala ka pa sa pag-aaral mo.”“You should have told me earlier so I could start the construction but it's fine. Thank you. I appreciate it like super a lot!” I thanked them again for the gift and we all went silent.“So what are your plan on that land? It's pr

At least for now, I could have my free time. I would not probably do things faster that made me do lesser efforts."And please help me tell your brothers not to go abroad already. There business is well and so the could help you manage our rice fields. Some of my amigos are selling theirs to me na.""Why? What happened?" I unconsciously asked.It was never my intention to asked him questions about his friends. I prefer sticking out my nose on their business. It's their friends not mine. We were already told about this since we were kids."Loss of money, I guess?""Just lend them some of your money Dad. Don't buy it just yet. Baka naghirap lang, tulungan na lang nating makabawi.""Wow.
