Falling apart

Chapter 47

Elle's POV:

Nagising ako nang biglang may tumigil na sasakyan sa labas . Baka sila Kuya Matt na yun kaya bumaba kaagad akong bumaba but whom I saw is Mama Meldy. Lunes palang pala ng hapon akala ko Tuesday na ngayon. "Mama napadalaw ka !" Mama said and was about to hug Mama Meldy nang bigla sya nitong sampalin kaya tumakbo kaagad ako sa tabi ni  Mama . "Ma w-what w-was that for ?" Tanong ni Mama "Mama I'm sorry. I can't lie to Mama Meldy anymore." I said "Irene , pinagmukha mo akong tanga alam mo ba yun ?! Lahat kayo alam nyo na kung anong nangyayari sa pamilyang toh samantalang ako ! Hindi ko alam !" Sigaw ni Mama Meldy "Mama Meldy calm down po we can speak this out please do not hurt each other." I calmly said at pinaupo sya sa upuan "What's happening here ?" Tanong ni kambal na galing sa kwarto nya , hindi ko nalang sya kinibo dahil ayokong magpang abot kami sa harapan ni Mama Meldy. "Tine sit beside me." Mama Irene said hinayaan ko nalang yun ang gusto nya kaya umupo nalang ako sa tabi ni Mama Meldy. My family is sitting on the other part of the sofa while I'm with Mama Meldy. "Ma I'm really sorry . Ayaw ko lang talagang sirain yung mood mo because it's almost your birthday." Mama Irene reasoned "Do you think it will ruin my mood ? Eh kung nasasaktan ang mga apo ko sa mga pinag gagagawa nyo dont I have the right to know about this ? I'm the head of this family and I should know the truth ." Mama Meldy said "Ma we're trying to work this out don't worry " Sabi ni Dad "Don't worry ?! Elle is mentally unstable, don't worry ?" Mama Meldy said "But Mama Meldy, she's not the only one who's affected here." Tine said "I know apo that's why after ng bakasyon ni Elle sa Ilocos sa akin muna sya titira until everyone sort this out ." Mama Meldy said "What ?! Mom no ! Please! Don't take her away from me please!" Mama Irene plead "It's up to Elle to decide." Mama Meldy said "Elle , Anak please!" Mama Irene said who's crying . "I'm sorry Ma , I can't really live with you right now." I said then Tine stand up "Wala ka na talagang awa ! Ano bang gusto mong gawin ni Mom ?! Ha ?! Lumuhod sa harapan mo ?! Sambahin ka ?! Anong gusto mo ?! Akong gagawa !" Kambal said at akmang sasampalin ako at saktong napigilan ko ito. "Gusto mong malaman ang totoo kambal ? Sana ako nalang ! Sana wala akong naging kambal ! Sana wala akong kahati ! Sana walang kinikompara sa akin ! Buti pa si Tine ganito ! Buti pa si Tine ganyan ! Puta ! Nakakarindi na !" I yelled "Tama na ! Ayan ba gusto nyo ha ?!" Sigaw ni Mama Irene at pumuntang kusina at kumuha ng kutsilyo at binigay sa amin ni kambal "Sige ! Magpatayan kayo ! Tutal yan naman ang gusto nyo diba ?!" Sigaw ni Mama. I look at the knife that I'm holding and the voices inside my head spoke again 'Kill yourself!' 'Do it!' 'Dont be a coward ! Do it !' 'Kill infront of them' All of a sudden I can feel someone na pinipigalan ako , hindi ko napagtanto na tinutok ko ang kutsilyo sa aking leeg . "Elle give me that !" Kuya Alfonso said getting the knife off of my hand and I can hear their commotion "Bitawan mo Elle !" Kuya Luis pulling me away from the knife "Elle do yoh hear me ? Put it down ." Mama Irene said at doon nalang bumalik ang aking ulirat . I lowered it and she took it away from me and hug me . I froze on the spot , humagulgol ng iyak si Mama and touch my hair "wag mong gawin yun please !" She cried and I only stood there "Just let me stay with Mama Meldy ." I said coldly "I-if that's what you want but please take your medicines parang awa mo na please." She said and hold my hand , I only nod . Umupo na ako at tumahimik nalang while they are talking. Nang biglang may pumasok sa bahay. I look at the door to find who it was and its the lovebirds 🤦‍♀️ wrong timing , Mama Meldy is here . "Irene ! Im with my girlfriend!" Mama Imee yelled , napasampal nalang talaga ako . Nang makita nilang nandito si Mama Meldy ay they paled like they've seen a ghost "M-Mom" takot na sabi ni Mama Imee "Sinong girlfriend mo ?" Tanong ni Mama Meldy in a serious tone then Momshie Loren went up and introduce herself.
"Ako po Mrs. Marcos ." Sabi nya na halatang kinakabahan. "Oh I see na your crush on my daughter since you we're young never change until now as what Irene told me." Mama Meldy  said gusto kong tumawa but I composed myself "So Mama it's fine with you na sila na ni Momshie Loren?" Tanong ko "Why not ?!" Mama Meldy said hindi ko na kinaya ang kilig ko at umirit "Ahhhhhhhhh ! Hindi na tigang si Josefa !" I said and laugh they all looked at me with daggers kaya di nalang ako mag talk. "Ayan ba ang epekto ng di mo pag inom ng gamot ?" Tanong sa akin ni Mama Meldy I just nod then Mama Imee sat beside me then Momshie Loren and Josefa pinch me on the side . "Arayyy! Ma !" I said felt annoyed . "Excuse Me." Kambal said at nag walk out "Anong nangyari dun ?" Tanong sa akin ni Mama Imee "Ewan ko dun." I said and cross my arms. "There's commotion kanina dito but it's over ." Mama Irene said "Sayang ! Di ko na naabutan !" Sabi ni Mama Imee kaya tinampal sya ni Mama Meldy "Muntikan mong hindi maabutan yang si Elle kung di lang naawat ni Irene ." Sabi ni Mama Meldy "Umm excuse me I have to pack for tomorrow, bukas na po ang alis namin nila kuya ." I said and stand up "And I also think that this conversation us for grownups so I'll let you have some private time you know " I said and was about to get out of the scene but Mom pulled me "What ?" Tanong ko "don't do anything that can harm you okay?" Tanong nya I just nod at pumunta na sa kwarto para mag impake .
