Kabanata 22DarknessLife must be beautiful and productive. Life makes all worth it. I have seen people who fell in love and happy. I have seen couple who survive and still holding onto each other. I have seen life who had been survive and still breathing.But...I am the only one who didn't survive for the life I want. I didn't survive and now I am throe. I had been wishing to have the life I want...but it seems the world wouldn't like to grant it. Never.I smiled to the person who saved me from everything. I smiled to the man who had been in my side to support me and never leave me. I smile to him...the man who make my life subsist. "It has been five years from now Martha. Limang tao na tayong nandito sa Nuuk, wala kabang balak na umuwi sa Pilipinas?" Chancellor voice echoed.Umulit akong ngumiti at hinimas ang balikat niya. Nasa terrace kaming dalawa at tinitignan ang magandang tanawin ng mga bumabagsak na snow. Malamig dito at halos limang jacket ang isuot namin dito. Lalo pa ngay
Kabanata 23Panyo"Ma why are we riding in airplane? Where are we going?" Talitha curiosity said.Tumingin ako sa kanya at ngumiti. Kasalukuyan kaming naka aboard sa eroplano. Ngayong araw ang pag uwi namin at inaasahan kami ng magulang ko ngayon araw. My mother said that papa is safe and stable now. He just have a panic heart attack and now his safe. Nasa gitna namin si Talitha habang masagana namang natutulog si Chan sa gilid. I sighed deeply."Baby we are going home today. Your grandfather waiting for you there." Smiled at her.She smile back and touch my cheeks. My daughter in her sweet gesture. Sa tuwing pinagmamasdan ko siya, hindi mawala sa memorya ko ang mukha ng ama niya. She look like her father, carbon copy. Wala yatang nakuha sa akin e, pati ang galaw at pagsalita katulad ng hinayupak na iyon.Ganito talaga kapag mahal na mahal mo ang tao, ang kinalalabasan ay ang anak mo. Halos magkamukha sila at hindi ko maitatanggi ang pagkakatulad talaga nila. Kaya natatakot akong umu
Kabanata 24PokersI have already plan for the upcoming birthday of that president. I have a gown to wear for it and it's all already. Bukas pa naman ang nasabing party kaya may oras ako ngayon para magsimula sa proseso ng gagawin ko kong negosyo.I have plan to build a mini coffee, just for welcoming my business. Sunod na ako magbabalak ng malaki at mga branch nito kapag naging maayos ang kalalabasan ng unang bukas ko ng coffee shop. May maganda na akong naisip na design para sa coffee shop, it's just freedom coffee shop. Kumbaga kung sino man ang papasok at o-order ng kape sa shop ko, mayroon akong freedom wall para isulat lahat ng nararamdaman o hinaing ng mga customer ko. I want them to feel free while inside my coffee shop. Every freedom wall is for my customer. Kung may gusto silang isulat, libre at walang bayad. It's kinda not new but I love that style. Kasi sa ganyang paraan, nailalabas ko ang lahat ng nararamdaman sa puso. It gives me freedom to write and shout all my exper
Kabanata 25PaghaharapAfter the meet up with the Pokers, I delivered myself home early. Nagulat ako ng bumungad sa aking kwarto si Chan, he was in my bed, trying to narcotize my daughter. It was late four in the afternoon and my parents aren't home. Maybe they left my daughter to Chan since he's here. Kinabahan nga ako nung pumasok ako sa bahay na tahimik, kaya heto at umakyat ako agad sa taas para makita kung nandito ba ang anak ko. Mabuti nalang at nandito nga at kasama pa ni Chan.I looked at my daughter, her eyes tender as she sleep to Chancellor arms. Ngumiti ako nang bumaling sa akin si Chan, he was in his plain gray t-shirt and ripped jeans. He look so handsome and dashing. Pumasok na ako ng tuluyan at nilapag ang bag sa tukador ko. Nakita ko pa ang mapanuri niyang tingin sa akin, taas hanggang baba ko. I just smiled seductively."You dress like that? Tita told me you visit city hall?" He ask profoundly.I remain my smile. Lumibot pa ako sa harap niya at pinakita ang pinakam
