Like Father Like Son の小説・ストーリー

Sa huli, napangiti siya nang mapakla, “Sige… Sige… Ang galing…! Maswerte talaga ako na nagkaroon ako ng anak na kagaya mo! Ang swerte ko talaga!” Hindi isinapuso ng lalaking nasa kabilang linya ang panunuya sa sinabi ni Jordan. Tumugon siya nang mahina, “Papa, may kasabihan nga: like father, like son. Hindi ako magiging ganito kung hindi dahil sa mga itinuro niyo.”

Mario said, his voice steady yet filled with emotion. He didn’t need to say much—he never did. But the depth of his feelings was always there, woven into his words, in the way he looked at Marcus with quiet admiration. His pride wasn’t just for the future surgeon his son would become but for the man he already was—hardworking, determined, and full of heart. Mario had always believed that a father’s role wasn’t just to provide but to guide, and at that moment, he wanted his son to know that, in his eyes, he had already become someone worth admiring.

But that's not how that guy behaves. Madalas itong dumikit sa ama nila at tuwing alam nitong nandoon silang magkakapatid, parang nang-iinis ang isa na parang pinamumukha sa kanila na mas malapit ang loob nito sa ama nila. And that fúcker also acts like they were bullying him. What made him furious was how their father sided with his other son. He also reprimanded them to treat Caius as their older brother. Not gonna happen.

“Malaki ang pinag bago ng anak ko at sa tuwing kasama ka niya ay napapansin ko ang saya sa kanyang mukha. Especially kanina, kitang kita ang kasiglahan at saya sa kanya. Hindi na nga pinansin ang ginagawa kong panenermon. At napatunayan ko nga na he's falling for you. That's why I want you to avoid him while it's still early. I'm sorry if I offend or hurt you, but I hope you understand me because I am a father concerned for his son… “...My father is getting old, and he wants to see his grandchild from Lucien. You know he's my only child. I want him to have a happy family, to have a wife who will take care of him and their future family. A woman who will be with him until he gets old.”

mahabang saad ng anak nito. "Tss. She's really impossible." he whispered. "What did you say, daddy? I'm sorry I cannot hear you. Your voice is too weak." pagpaumanhin pa ng anak nito na ikinangiti ni Tyrone. Luke was really far different from his father, he's too kind. Pinagmamalaki niya ang anak sa katangiang ito.

Marahas niyang binuwag ang hawak nito sa kamay niya at tinulak ito palayo. “Pinagtiyatiyagaan ko iyang pagmumukha mo para lang mabigyan ng kumpletong pamilya si Ranier. Hindi ko sukat akalain na ikaw pa mismo ang sisira no’n. Well, fruits don’t fall far from tree after all. Or should I say in the clearest possible figurative speech—like father, like son?” He was taken aback. She could see he was hurt, and he deserved that. Sinaktan nito ang anak niya.

“What do you mean? Wala na akong nararamdaman para kay Klaire. At bakit mo inaakusahan si Papa na may gusto kay Tita Jasmine? Even though our relationship is strained, I know my father loves my mom very much.” “Oh… okay then?” tipid na sagot ni Jordan, may bahid ng maliit na ngiti ang labi. “You’re very similar to your father in every way. Ang kaibahan lang, magaling siyang magtago ng ambisyon kaya mahirap basahin ang iniisip niya. I just hope you take after your mom.”

"Wala namang nangyari sa inyo ni Dad! Wala kayong relasyon!" "Pero meron tayong titulo," sagot ni Amara. "At gagamitin ko ang titulong 'yon ngayon. Bilang Stepmother mo, inuutusan kitang lumayo sa akin. Respetuhin mo ang Tatay mo, Xerxes. Respetuhin mo ang kasal namin." "Amara, wag mo naman akong ganituhin..." "Bakit? Masakit ba?" ngisi ni Amara. "Masakit bang marinig na nanay-nanayan mo lang ako? Masakit bang isipin na yung babaeng gusto mong angkinin ay pag-aari ng ama mo?"

Mavi Pov "May I know who is the father of your son?" ulit na tanong ni Alpha Magnus nang hindi ko sinagot nag kanyang tanong. "Bakit mo naman gustong malaman kung sino ang ama ng anak niya, Alpha Magnus? Of course, hindi mo kilala ang ama ng anak niya dahil hindi mo rin kilala ang babaeng iyan," inis na sabi ni Sonia, "I'm just curious kung anak ba sa labas ng kapatid ko si Moses. Para kasing magkamukha kami," narinig kong sagot ni Alpha Magnus kay Sonia.

Pero malinaw ang lahat. Mataas palagi ang expectations ni Papa sa kanilang magkakapatid—lalo sa mga lalaki. Dapat breadwinner. Dapat matatag. Dapat hindi umiiyak. At kapag nadapa, walang espasyong bumangon—dahil ang kapalit ay sermon, sigaw, pangungumpara, panliliit, at madalas, pananakit. Aidan was never strong in their father’s eyes.
