CHAPTER 76

MY MOM fell into depression. I had a talk with my Dad where he asked me to stay strong for our family, as I was the only one left for him to rely on. I didn't have the heart to tell him that I was already broken into pieces.

Maraming nakakakompitensya si Dad Palo na sa ibang bansa kung Saan naroon ang kanyang mga negosyo. Negosyo na napalatagal niyang itinaguyod mag-isa since my Mom was still working in her parent's business. She can’t leave easily because that is their family's legacy. But Dad needs her help too at Montemayor Hotels and Restaurant and she cannot decide to say yes.

Sa kalagitnaan ng problema sa pamilya ay hindi ko natiis na hindi puntahan si Minzi sa probinsya nila. Okay na sa akin magalit siya at itaboy niya ako, basta makita ko lang sana siya kahit sandali lang. Baka lang kahit paano umayos ang takbo ng isip ko, baka kahit paano maibsan ang sakit ng puso ko. Kaso sa ilang punta ko sa kanila ay wala siya. Hindi kami nagpapang-abot na dalawa.
