My Mother's Eyes นิยาย & เรื่องราว

"Yes, princess." "Finally... I have a Mommy..." she muttered. "You always have, Rean," I replied. "I have a question for you." I stared at her eyes. Her eyes were really like Zreinessa's. They're soft and innocent. It became more glowing when she's smiling. "Ano po?" she innocently asked. I sighed. "Are you mad at your mother?" I wanted to know what she feels. Gusto kong malaman kung ano ang iniisip niya tungkol sa Mommy niya. Kahit kailan ay hindi siya naghanap at nagtanong sa amin tungkol sa Mommy niya.

Dad sighed, his eyes were even moistening. "But you did have a number of girlfriends," I said. "I did. And I loved them in my own way but not the same as your mom. With your mom, it was different. Hindi ko makuhang maipaliwanag ang nararamdaman ko sa mommy mo." "Were you fascinated with mom the first time you saw her?" Dad smiled. "I guess you could say that. She had the loveliest eyes I've ever laid eyes on. She was cute and beautiful in her own little way."

“What do you mean you’re not leaving this place?” “Tu peux la chercher, papa ? Elle ressemble... exactement à maman. Sauf ses yeux. Ils sont marron,” anito dahilan para mangunot ang kanyang noo. [translation: Can you look for her, daddy? She looks... just exactly like mommy. Except her eyes. She got those brown ones.] He frowned. “What do you mean she got those brown eyes?” Sunod-sunod na tumango si Ryo. “Et son amie l'a appelée Gail.” [translation: And her friend called her Gail.]

At baka humantong pa sa Punto na hindi na niya ako pabalikin. My mother was silently listening to me while the side of her lips were up. It looks like she’s enjoying it too. Natigilan ako at nakatitig sa kaniya. She seemed like she had lost some weight during the past months I was gone, and below her eyes was a big dark circle. I know the father is taking good care of the mother, but knowing her, no one can stop her if she has already decided what she wants to do. Siguro ay nag-aalala pa rin siya sa akin kahit nasa loob na ako ng academy.

Salubong ang kanyang kilay pero sobrang nakaka-attract talaga ang kulay berde niyang mga mata. Sabi nila napaka-rare na magkaroon ng ganoong kulay ng mga mata. Kanino niya naman kaya iyon namana? Nang makatitigan ko kasi si father-in-law ay itim na itim naman ang bilugan niyang mga mata. Hindi kaya kay mother-in-law? Pero hindi ko pa siya nakikita in person. Nagtatarabaho kaya si mommy sa abroad? Isa ba siyang OFW? Napahagikgik na lang ako nang mapagtanto na 'mommy' ang tawag ko sa mama ni Josh.

Hindi nakaligtas sa paningin ko ang pagkakakuyom ng palad ni Ate Carmela habang si Emily ay payukong may talim ang tingin sa akin. "Don't give me that kind of look, Emily if you don't want me to donate your eyes in charity." May pagbabanta ulit na sabi ko kaya mas nagtago ito sa likod ng kanyang ina. "Tumigil na kayo." Pagpapagitna naman ni mama habang inisa isa niya kaming tinapunan ng tingin. "Tama naman ang sinabi ng kapatid mo Carmela. Masyado mo silang inispoiled kaya ganyan sila ngayon at laging nanghahamak ng ibang tao." Panenermon ni mama.

"...akala ko kasi kilala mo si Hera. She's a family friend, close friend of my wife. I thought you know her kasi kamukha mo sya. Siguro kong nakita ko kayong dalawa iisipin kong anak ka nya." Lalong tumindi ang kakaiba kong nararamdaman sa aking dibdib. Napahigpit ang hawak ko sa kamay ni Gustavo. Agad niya naman akong hinapit palapit sa kanya at muling dinampian ng halik ang gilid ng ulo ko. "You really look like her ang kaibahan niyo lang ay ang kulay ng mata. Hera had pair of amber eyes." Amber eyes? Ano bang kulay ng mata ni Nanay? Itim kasi sa akin? Sabi ni Tatay yun lang daw ang namana ko sa kanya.

her tone and gaze became serious and as cold as winter. I swallowed bard once again. I can't recognize my mother while staring at her blank black eyes. They were beautiful but cold like lifeless. Parang siya lang. Kasi hindi ko siya naligtas noong unti unti na siyang nalulunod habang hinahayaan lang niya ang lalakeng pinakamamahal niya na abusuhin siya at paulit-ulit lang na gaguhin! Kahit gustong gusto kong maglayas dito at sumama sa totoong ama ko, hindi ko siya magawang iwan. Mahal na mahal ko siya!

Then my eyes darted back to my mother—her eyes were shining, and my heart tightened. Alam ko na agad na talo na ako. Na wala na. Na hindi ko kayang tanggihan si mommy. "Elise," tawag niya sa akin nang hindi ako sumagot. "Aren't you going to answer mom?" "Pag-iisipan ko mommy," nakita ko ang pagkawala ng kinang sa kanyang mata. Tumaas ang kanyang kilay at hindi nagustuhan ang naging sagot ko.

Banayad kong sabi at pinahid ang ilalim ng kanyang mga mata. Napakurap ako upang iwaksi sa isipan ko ang naaaninag ko sa tuwing nakatutok ako sa mga mata ni Mommy. Soren kasi got his rain cloud eyes from our mother. Malalim at mapanglaw ngunit ilan lang ang nakakaalam na may taglay din itong hindi ordinaryong talas na nakakubli doon. "Let her pass, darling. She won't surely refuse to take notice her father over here." Kunwari ay patampong wika ni Dad na nakapuwesto na sa kabisera ng twelve sitters dining table namin.
