JEMA
"What's your agenda today babe?" Anton asked as he prepares to go to work.
"Home only." tipid na sagot ko.
"Hindi ba kayo aalis ni Myla? I thought you'll gonna play golf." he said.
"I'm not in the mood Anton. Madami rin akong dapat asikasuhin. Maybe she can go and play with her friends." I said.
"You know that she doesn't have a lot of friends here babe. Sige na, samahan mo na siya. Para makapaglibang ka rin. Have fun and relax. Do what you want and do some shopping too. I'll pay for all of it." he offered.
"Araw araw na nga kaming magkasama sa bahay for more than a week tapos pati ba naman sa galaan dapat ako pa din? I need a breather too Anton." sagot ko.
"Sssshhhh, lower your voice Jema because she might hear you. I know you are still mad at me but don't you dare include my sister sa galit mo." mariing sabi niya.
Aba, mas concern siya sa kapatid niya kesa sa akin.
"Ako pa ngayon ang lumalabas na masama, ha Anton?" gigil na tanong ko.
"I did not say that. What I'm trying to say is that try to be nice while my sister is here." he replied.
"I am always nice to your sister, even to your whole family. Is it bad to ask for some time alone? Teka nga pala, why don't you sit down muna para makapag usap tayo. May sasabihin kasi ako." I said when I remembered about my proposal to him.
Natigil ito sa pag aayos niya ng tie at hinarap ako. Alam niya na tungkol sa divorce ang sasabihin ko.
"Jema, ano pa ba ang gusto mong malaman? Di ba nag usap na tayo. You know my stance and it's still the same. NO. Kaya itigil mo na yang plano mo. You are acting like a teenager. Our marriage is legally binding sa mata ng Diyos at tao." he said.
"Teenager? You are describing yourself Anton. Ikaw itong hindi umaakto sa edad mo. Besides, why it's always you who decides? Every time we have arguments or discussions laging ikaw ang nasusunod. Dalawa tayo ang nasa relasyong ito. It should be the two of us who will decide Anton. Hindi pwedeng ikaw lang. And like I said too, I still want a divorce." sabi ko na nagpaiba ng hitsura niya.
He took a deep breath. He is trying to control his anger, I can feel it.
"You are impossible, Jessica. I don't have time for this." he finally said while shaking his head.
"Anton, I have a proposal. Maybe you can consider it." seryosong sabi ko.
"Sis, let's go!" Myla said out of nowhere kaya napatingin kami sa pinanggalingan ng boses niya.
Myla is all dressed up, ready to go out na nga. I sighed. Hindi na naman yata matutuloy ang usapan namin ni Anton.
"Go where?" I asked while smiling.
Ay ang plastic Jema.
"To the MGCC. Golf time yeah." she replied while making a putting stroke in the air.
Me and Anton looked at each other testily. I think Myla noticed it as she gives us a questioning look. Nakabawi naman agad si Anton.
