Richard's POV
Kung tutuusin, hindi naman mahirap ang pinapagawa ni Lolo, if they want a grandchild nandyan na si Celestine, we could already file an annulment kasi apo lang naman talaga ang gusto nila.
But I know in my heart that I don’t want that annulment to push through anymore. Upon learning who I am to Celestine I changed my mind about the annulment, I don’t want my daughter to grow in a broken home environment. Kailangang mapaamin ko si Maine na ako talaga ang daddy ni Celestine because I can feel my connection to that kid the first time I laid my eyes on her.
“You seems bothered sa condition ng Lolo mo, you are in deep thought. Hindi mo man lang namalayan na nakapasok na ako dito sa family room” Daddy Ricky said
“Dad” is the only word that I was able to say and continue playing my favorite video game.
"It seems desidido ka na talaga dyan sa annulment na yan ah, mukhang hindi ka pa kinakasal, separated na agad ang civil status mo” he said
“Actually Dad, it is the other way around, I don’t want to push with the annulment anymore” I said
“Tutoo ba RJ? I’m sure your Lolo will be very happy to know that. What made you change your mind?” he asked.
“Celestine is my daughter Dad” I replied
“If you plan to adopt her she will be, mas maganda yun para pareho na sila ng surname ni Maine, wala nang magtatanong bakit hindi sya Faulkerson” he said
“But she is a Faulkerson” I insisted
“What are you saying RJ?” he said
“Dad, I am Celestine’s biological father” I replied
“What made you say that? Sinabi ba yan sa iyo ni Maine. Paanong mangyayaring ikaw ang biological father ni Celestine?” he asked
“Remember Dad, sa iyo ko na rin nakuha ang idea na baka anak ko nga si Celestine because of the different connection I felt for her when I first met her.” I said
“That’s impossible, I saw how decent of a girl is Maine. I actually regret thinking that is it possible that you had a child in her. She won’t go with stuff like having a one night stand” he said
"She can if she gets too drunk. It was in Calatagan. She was the girl that I saw drinking alone sa harap ng cottage ko. she had a fight with her bestfriend and she was all messed up that time. Lasing na lasing talaga sya, uminom ba naman ng kalahating bote ng vodka tapos pati yung mga hard drinks ko pinagdiskitahan din” I said
“Nag-inuman lang kayo nabuo na si Celestine?” he asked
I actually could not help but smile upon recalling what happened that night “Nag jack en poy kami Dad” I said beaming
“Nakakabuo na pala ang jack en poy ngayon, bakit hindi ko alam yan sana ginawa namin ng Mommy mo para mas marami kang kapatid” he said smiling
“Yung consequence ang nagdala dun Dad, kung sino ang matalo, magtatanggal ng isang bagay na nakasuot sa kanya. I could no longer recall kung gaano katagal inabot ang game namin na yun, basta ang na-recall ko na lang nagising ako the next day because of your call with a naked woman beside me sound asleep on my bed. I admit I left my cottage in that state because of your call pero nung bumalik ako Dad wala na sya, I don’t even know where her cottage was and I was not able to get her name para itanong ko sa information kung nag-check out na sya” I said
