Chapter 33

A few days after we buried dad Mommy and I are like this now. Sad and silent. Destiny is very deceitful indeed. When did I meet my real father, will he still disappear? Mommy, Manang, and Vince were the only ones living in the house because Daddy was incarcerated. I didn't expect Daddy to do that ... I'm mad at him. W-why did he do this to us?

"Baby Van eat now ..." Mommy said and immediately left to go to the dining area.

I first got up from my bed and immediately went to the cr of my room. I washed first ... I hope all this is just a dream ..... I hope so .... I hope it's just a dream ... but no, I can still feel the cold water. Even as I washed, I could clearly see my tears. I looked at myself in the mirror and saw my eyes already swollen with tears. Maybe I need to move on. This is really the destiny, just playful.

After I washed up I immediately went downstairs to eat and as expected we still ate quietly.

"Mama ..... bring me to school today." Said Vince. I smiled. My dad, Vince's dad. They both lost me but I'm happy because he's here .... Vince-the only one who makes me smile.

"All right after you eat take a bath then get dressed ok?"

"Ok!"

***** *****

After Vince took a bath I dressed him. Then I drive him to L.E University. When I arrived at the University, those memories immediately flashed. I smiled when I remembered that memory.

The day we talked in the library ... the time he would meet me when I arrived at the University. And the day I met the man that made my heart beat. It's bitter to think that we were still close then and now we don't even see each other anymore.

-

"Are you a nerd?"

"Do I look like a nerd?"

"I'm sorry....everyone thinks I'm a nerd so I think your a nerd too."

-

I laughed softly when I remembered that .... she called me a nerd then ... then-

"Mom, I'm leaving." I came back to reality when I heard my son's voice.

"O-okay .... be careful!" at once I waved at him.

Past is past.

I realized that all my past could not be revisited. Because they say past is past. But I hope the past can be restored.

As I watched my son walk away from me something suddenly hit my eyes.

A man with a girl. I was surprised when I realized it was him ... Oliver and his daughter.

I looked at the baby girl and saw her face. Oliver looks like the child. While the mouth was caught by Lia. I hope they become friends with my son .... I hope so.

I was surprised when the child suddenly looked at me. I, on the other hand, am the one who made me smile when we met the child's eyes. But I didn't expect him to turn around either so he saw me smiling. My smile quickly faded when he suddenly looked away from me.

Then my heart shattered into pieces.

Suddenly my heart broke ... the pain of feeling. Very painful indeed. They left suddenly but the child's eyes were still on me. She smiled at me and I didn't expect that she also smiled back at me and waved. The sweetness of her smile.

When I got home I immediately went to the kitchen and got some strawberry juice in the fridge.

I drank it and didn't expect to finish a glass with it. W-why do I feel this way? The speed of my heartbeat. Incapable...

No. Not allowed. You can't inlove it. Move-on Vanessa right? They may think that you are weak.

Ughhh! My heart still doesn't stop beating. The speed. I could barely follow my breathing.

"Baby Van are you okay? Are you blushing?" Suddenly I was overwhelmed when I heard a voice. I saw Mommy smiling.

"M-mommy....are you smiling?" I asked confused. She approached me.

"I realized that there was nothing we could do that no matter how much we cried, he would never come back. But I still hope that he will always be there by our side." I smiled. Suddenly there were tears in my eyes.

"What is that I just said." She said and hugged me. I also hugged tightly.

"M-mommy." I call her.

"Why?"

"Do you think Lia and I will be friends?" Question why she stopped.

"Sure. But I hope so ..." I smiled.

Is Friendship realy ends? Why? Why am I going to be like this? If she don't want to be my friends. Then I am the one who will find a way to bring back our friendship.
