Falling apart

Chapter 22

Elle's POV :
We are now waiting for the new year count down . We are all blowing our turotots at nangunguna pa si Mama Meldy. Kuya Sandro went near her and took a video of them two kaya pumunta ako sa kanila at naki join . "Happy new year everyone !"  I yelled . "Kuya i tag mo ako ha ?" Sabi ko nang matapos nyang mag video at tumakbo papunta kay Daddy at niyakap sya . "Nak ! Ginulat mo naman ako !, saan ka nanggaling?" Tanong nya at niyakap ako . "Kay Kuya Sandro po ." Sabi ko . "Oh Nandyan lang pala kayong mag ama , punta na tayo dun kila Mama mag co count down na daw dali !" Sabi ni Mama Irene na nauna na samin , natawa nalang kami ni Dad at inakbayan nya ako papunta kila Mama . Hindi rin nag tagal ay nag appear na ang 1 minute timer that we are all waiting for and theres only 10 seconds left . "10 ! 9! 8! 7! 6! 5! 4! 3! 2! 1! Happy New year !!!!" Sigaw naming lahat and the fireworks are starting to appear . Nagulat ako ng mag labas sila Kuya Borgy ng trampoline at pinatalon si Kuya Sandro . Natawa ako dahil tumalon ng napagka taas itong si Kuya Sandro , gusto talaga nyang tumangkad hahaha !. Well natatangkaran ko na kasi si Kuya and Im only 15 . He's 5'5 while im 5'6 . Nang matapos na ay nag paiwan muna ako sa labas sandali dahil gusto kong mag pahangin bago pumunta sa loob nakuha na sila ng pagkain nang makapasok ako . Nag uwian narin ang iba naming bisita at yung iba naman ay nag papaalam na . Sinalubong ko ang iba to bid goodbye at pumunta na ako sa handaan para kumuha ng pagkain at nakita kong ubos na ang graham na ginawa ni Mama . I look at may Kuyas na nakatingin sa akin na may graham sa plato nila bago sila bumalik sa pagkain na parang walang nangyari . Pag katapos ko kumuha ng pagkain ay pumunta ako sa table nila Mama Irene na katabi lang ng table nila Kuya . "Mama inubos nila yung graham wala na akong nakuha!" Sabi ko na ikinatawa nila Kuya . "Im sorry Love , nailabas na lahat ng graham pati rin yung mga reserve ." Sabi ni Mama na ikinadismaya ko . I just nod at pumunta sa table namin nila Kuya at mabigat na nilapag ang plato ko. "Nag paalam ako sayo Kuya Vinny na mag papahangin lang ako sa labas tapos pag balik ko dito wala ng graham ?!!!" Inis na sabi ko sa kanya na ikinatawa nila Kuya . "Bat kayo natawa ?" Taas kilay kong tanong na ikinatahimik nila  umupo ako beside Kuya Simon at masama ang loob na kinain ang pagkain ko . "Gusto mo liit sayo nalang itong graham ko ." Alok ni Kuya Simon . "No Kuya its yours ." Sabi ko at kumain . "Hindi iyo nalang , Im not into sweets naman diba ?, iyo na oh " sabi nya at nilagay sa plato ko ang graham . "Thank you Kuya !, wanna go out later ?" Tanong ko. "Anong oras ?" Tanong ni Kuya Simon . "Lunch I guess ? Di naman tayo magigising ng maaga today ." Sabi ko . "Kayong dalawa lang ?" Tanong ni Kuya Matt . Kuya Si was about to answer but nauna ako . "Yes , date nya ako tomorrow ." Sabi ko sasabat pa sana si Kuya Sandro pero hindi ko na pinatapos. "Baka naman gusto nyo iba ka date ko ." Sabi ko . "Hayaan nyo na kami kuyas I'll take care of her ." Sabi ni Kuya Si . "Mmm rinig nyo yun ? Now we better eat para makapag pahinga na tayo ng mas maaga ." Sabi ko at nag simulang kumain .

Makalipas ang ilang oras ay nag puntahan na kami sa kaniya kaniyang room . Kasama ko si Ayisha ngayon sa room and for us hindi parin tapos ang party . She introduce me to an app called TikTok ? Ano ba naman tong si Ayisha ! Before musically , ngayon TikTok ?!! I dont really want to download some social medias kasi I wanna focus on my studies and I have to get my parents consent before I decide . The only social media accounts I have are facebook , facetime , email , instagram and
messenger. She keeps on insisting me to do a video with her but nahihiya ako . "Dali na Ate ! Papakita ko sayo result ng transitions that I've learned yesterday. Please! Please! Please !" She pleads . I sigh , Ano ba naman itong si Ayi nabuang na sa TikTok .
"Sige na nga ! Isa lang ahh !" Sabi ko . "Yeyy ! Sige Ate pili lang ako ng sound ." Sabi nya then she taught me what she's doing these and those bla bla bla ! She teach me some moves para makasabay ako sa music then we started taking the video , her holding the phone . At sa wakas natapos na kami . "Dont worry Ate sa private videos ko i popost ." She said and posted the video , I just hummed as an answer. "Tulog na tayo Ayi , inaantok na ako !" Sabi ko at humiga sa kama at humikab . "Sige Ate good night ! Happy New year!" Sabi nya and lay beside me . "G'night and Happy new year Ayi." Sabi ko and drifted to sleep .

Irene's POV:
The moment Elle walk downstairs  I gasp because she looks so fabulous. And I tell you she's hot , tiningnan ko si Greggy at di mapinta ang mukha niya kaya siniko ko sya . "Ano ba Greg ! Hayaan mo na yang Anak natin ! Nag dadalaga na ang baby ko ." Sabi ko and look at Elle who is about to give her speech . "Fine Hon , ngayon lang yan ahh !" Sabi ni Greg . "Maganda naman ang anak natin ahh , Hayaan mo sya i enjoy pag kadalaga nya ! And she even ask me for my consent if papayag raw ba akong mag suot ng medyo revealing na clothes . I expect more than what she's wearing right now ." Sabi ko and look at my daughter who's waving her hands to the people . She glance at us kaya siniko ko si Greggy and smile at him and look back at Elle and wave at her . "Maganda nga ! May sinabi ba akong hindi . Bakit sayo lang nanghingi ng consent? Magulang nya din ako ahh !" Angal nito and I just roll my eyes . "Alam nya kasing hindi ka papayag and alam nya ding wala kang palag sakin. "I said and chuckle . "Ayan na mag speech na si Elle ! Listen. "Sabi ko at masayang pinapanood ang anak ko."Ellie! Ellie !Ellie ! Ellie!" Her cousins  chant .I take out my phone and take a video of her . The host start to introduce her and ask her for a speech . "Ms. Araneta would you like to give a speech , please ?" The host ask . "Ohh I would love to !" She said that made me smile , She take the microphone and start to speak . This is what I love about her , She's good at hosting . May pinagmanahan yata 😎😎😎.
"Good evening everyone ! I hope you 're all having fun , today we will face another year here in our house and Im so glad that you chose to join the party that my family had been hosting for years and chose to be with us tonight . Another year another start as what they say , May you enjoy your stay here in our home , Good evening everyone ." She said and give the microphone to the host . The visitors clap their as she wave at them before make beso with her  Tita Dawn and Ayisha and seat down with us .
"Hoy bakit ganyan ang suot mo ? Tignan mo kita yang hita mo. " Sabi ni Luis. "Ano ka ba Luis ! Bagay nga sa kanya ehh ! Ano naman kung makita legs nya ?mahaba naman ang biyas ahh !" Saway ni Xandra that made me chuckle . "Kilala naman natin ang mga tao dito ehh." Sabi nya at nag pout ."Kahit na anak , I never expected na ganyan ang suot mo tonight." Seryosong sabi ni Greggy kaya siniko ko ulit toh . "Mama oh ! Sila Daddy ! Anong gusto nyong suotin ko pang tulog ?!!" Sabat nya at napanguso. "Hayaan nyo nga si Elle ! Dalaga na ang anak natin Greggy hindi na bata ." Saway ko . Dumila nalang sya  at tumayo to entertain some guests . Nilapit ni Greggy ang bibig nya sa aking tenga na tila ba may sasabihin kaya nilapit ko ang aking tenga sa kanya . "Kanina ka pa siko ng siko Hon , humanda ka sakin sa kwarto ." Sabi ni Greggy that made me gulp . "Matutulog si Elle sa room natin ." Sabi ko ang look away . "Oh her best friend will sure have a sleep over with her . Get ready Hon . I'll do you later ." Greggy said in a sexy tone . Oh my gosh . You're so dead Irene .  I look away as if everything is fine but the moment he touch my leg and massage it . I can sense the lust He's feeling . I removed his hand from me at bumulong sa kanya ." Greggy ano ka ba ! Ang daming tao oh ! Tumigil ka nga !" Inis na sabi ko . Inakbayan nya ako at nilapit sa kanya and look somewhere . I look who's he's looking at and it's Elle. "She talks like you Hon , the way she speak , accent, how you engage with people . Ikaw na ikaw ehh ." Sabi ni Greggy that made me chuckle . I lay my head on his shoulder and look at him . "What do you think about adoption ? Payag na ako ." Sabi ko and look at Elle again . "I think she's ready to be an Ate na ." I added . "Kung yan ang ikasasaya ng kambal why not ? Namiss ko na magkaroon ng baby sa bahay . Pauwi narin sila Alfonso next month ." Sabi naman ni Greggy na ikinatuwa ko . "Talaga ? Payag ka na ? Bago tayo umalis dito sa Ilocos We should visit some orphanage with the kids ,what do you think?" Tanong ko sa kanya.
"That's  a good idea . Well then we should visit the day after tomorrow. "Sabi nya . I kiss him on the lips and smile . "Thanks Hon." Sabi ko nang biglang may umubo . I look up to see my  Manang with Bonget . They look at the other table where the Marcos grandchildren were . "Team tigang tara na sa labas mag count down na raw ! Irene baka naman gusto mo munang sumama samin ?" Sabi ni Manang . I stood up and look at Greggy . "Go on hanapin ko lang anak natin." He said . I just nod and follow the others outside .
