Falling apart

Chapter 41

Elle's POV :

Nang magising ako ay nandito na ako sa kama . Siguro ay pinapasok na kami ni Mama kagabi . Naligo na ako at nag uniform , nagsuklay and everything . Di ka na naman kailangan isa isahin yun diba ? Pinuntahan ko na si Tine kasi for sure tulog pa yun because it's only 6 in the morning . Narinig ko naman na may nagluluto na sa kusina kaya I assume na nandoon ang mga parents ko . I entered kambal's room without knocking and I saw her sleeping tulo pa laway 😂 . I tapped her shoulder but she won't wake up kaya hinanda ko na ang uniform nya I tried to wake her up again but she wont and I run out of patience already "ANTOINETTE !!!!!" I yelled then she got up "Ano ?!! Anong nangyari ?!!" He ask half asleep . "Maligo ka na ! Papasok pa tayong school ! I have a meeting to attend to !" I said feeling annoyed . "Ok ! Calm down ! You should check on Gab ." She said I roll my eyes and go to Gab's room . I saw him getting dressed help by his Yaya . "Oh good morning Ate !" He said and run up to me at nagpakarga "Ano ba yan baby boy ang bigat mo na ! Tapos na po ba sya Ate ?" Tanong ko sa Yaya ni Gab at umoo naman ito kaya bumaba na kami sa dining area at nakita ko si Mama na paika-ika maglakad . Nako for sure may ginawa silang milagro last night , buti nalang at pagod ako at hindi ko narinig . "Oh mga anak nandyan na pala kayo ! Good morning !" Mama said and walk awkwardly I try not to laugh , ako nalang ang lumapit sa kanya at humalik sa pisngi at ganoon din si Gab "Ma it looks like pinagod ka ni Dad last night ahh !" I said raising my eyebrows while putting Gab down at hinampas nya ako na ikinatawa ko . "Ikaw ! Isa ka pa ! May atraso pa kayo sa akin ng kambal mo !" Sabi nya nang biglang bumaba si kambal "Love is an open door 🎶🎶🎶" She sang "Oh anong meron ?" Tanong nya "Ito kasi si Kambal Mama ! Sabi ko tawagan ka namin for you to join us pero she said no and you look kawawa daw when she said no !" Sumbong ko kay Mama "Ikaw talaga Elle wala rin preno yang bunga mo minsan ano ? Magsusumbong ka pa ha ?!!" She ask and chase me around the table hanggang mahagip sya ni Mama at pinalo sa pwet . " Aray ma ! We are already ladies pero you still hit my butt !" Angal ni Kambal . "Alam mo kambal paglakarin mo si Mama." Sabi ko minatahan ako ni Mama but I smirk "Mom can you walk please !" Tine said out of curiosity Mama glared at me and limp her way to her seat and we all laugh "Alam na this ! Hahaha !" Tawa ni kambal "Sige Greggy tumawa ka pa ! Di ka na makakaulit !" Sabi ni Mama that made Dad stop laughing that made us all laugh "Why are you all laughing ?" Tanong sa amin ni Gab . "Kase si Mom-" Hindi ko na pinatapos si kambal at ako na ang sumagot "Something that kids shouldn't know about hmmm ?" Sabi ko kay Gab and he nod and continue eating . Kinurot ko si kambal sa tagiliran bago umupo "Kayong mag ina ang hilig nyong manakit noh ?!!" Inis na sabi ni kambal at umupo sa tabi ni Mom . Well now that Im the eldest child here sa bahay I'm eating on Dad's left side while Mom's on the right next to kambal and next to me is Gab . "Oww sorry na baby !!" Sabi ni Mama at hinalikan si kambal , bigla ko nanaman naramdaman ang pagkalungkot ngumiti nalang ako at kumain ng tahimik . They are talking about something but I dont understand what they are talking dahil tulala lang ako . "Huyyy ! Kambal ! Okay ka lang ? May tinatanong si Mama sayo !" Sabi nya sa akin but I'm half awake "Ha ?" Tanong ko "Hotdog" Tine said and roll her eyes . "Anak palagi kang balisa now a days , is there something bothering you ?" Tanong ni Mama sa akin agad naman akong kinabahan kaya I tried to smile "W-wala Ma ! M-may iniisip lang ako ! May meetings kasi na I have to attend to mamaya " I reasoned yes I have a meetings to attend to but hindi yun ang iniisip ko , Hindi ko kasi naka visit sa psychologist ko kahapon kasi lumabas kami ni kambal , I texted my doctor naman and recommended nya din naman na I should go out sometimes . Nang matapos na ako kumain ay tumayo na ako . "Oh 'nak tapos ka na ? Ang konti lang ng kinain mo oh ! Kumain ka pa " Mama said who is about to get the rice for me "No Mom , I'm full marami po akong nakain kagabi sa mall , Excuse me po !" I said and leave them.

Tine's POV  :

"Luh ? Anong nangyari dun ?" Tanong ko watching her walk upstairs . Alangan naman lumipad sya . I look at Mom who's quite upset , maybe she got offended nung tinanggihan sya ni kambal . "Ma can I have some more rice ? Ang sarap ng luto mo ehh !" I said para di na sya malungkot , ngumiti naman sya at sinandukan ako . "Is there something wrong about your twin that she had told you ?" Tanong nya sa akin "Wala naman Ma , baka pagod lang sya and maybe she got even more mature , wag naman sana ." I said "Yeah right baka nag mature nanaman ang kambal mo." Sabi nya "Tsaka baka akala mo lang there's something wrong , ganoon naman talaga sya before mas tahimik sya sa akin ." Sabi ko sa kanya I hold her hand and put it on my cheek . "Ma ! She's fine ! I'll try to talk to her later okay ? Dont worry I gotcha !" I said and wink at her "Ikaw talaga !" She said at kinurot ang pisngi ko "Di ba talaga kayo titigil sa kakakurot nyo sa akin ?" I said in annoyance "Hahaha ang laki kasi ng pisngi mo para kang siopao !" Dad said and laugh "Luh ! Si Dad basher !" I said "Joke lang !" He said and we continue eating and Gab is telling us about his crush 🥺 . Nang matapos kami ag nakababa narin si kambal . "Tine magdala ka ng driver mo okay ? May pupuntahan lang ako after class." She said "Oh okay !" I said and get my bag upstairs and we are all set .
