Chapter 44

Family

Nang ma discharged ako ay agad ding nag book ng flight si D pabalik sa syudad. Elias didn't leave my side hanggang sa nakarating kami sa bahay ng kapatid ko.

Mom and Dad are there when we arrive.

"Xin, anak!" Mom exclaimed. They welcomed me with their embrace.

"I'm glad your okay, Xin." Dad said.

Maya maya lang ay pumasok na din si D at El dala-dala ang mga gamit namin.

"Jaze," Dad called for his attention.

I saw how Elias froze when Dad glared at him.

"Dad," I'm happy that my brother gave our Dad a chance to forgive him and they'll be better again.

Napansin kong kay Elias lang siya nakatingin.

"Who are you?" Oh shoot! They didn't know Elias, yet.

"I'm Elias, sir." Naglahad siya nang kamay kay Daddy.

Dad just raised his brow at El. "And?"

Lumingon sa akin si Elias na para bang humihingi ng tulong. Pinipigilan kong matawa sa reaksyon niya.

"And I-I'm-" sasagot pa sana siya nang unahan ko siyang magsalita.

"He's my boyfriend, Dad." Lumapit ako kay Elias at hinawakan siya sa braso.

Nanlaki ang mata ni Dad at gulat na gulat din si Mommy. "What?! Boyfriend?!"

"Y-Yes, sir." I tsked when I felt him nervous.

"Is this true, Jaze?" He asked my brother and D just nodded.

"What the?!" My Dad's voice thundered.

"Sir, hear me out please." He made a step near my father.

"Why would I?" I can feel his sarcasm.

"Dad, please." Lumambot naman agad ang ekspresyon ni Daddy nang tumingin siya sa akin.

Daddy sighed and nodded. "Okay, talk now." He said.

"I'm Eliazar Sage Montellano, sir... and I love your daughter. I met her at Casa Blanca, sir. The first time I laid my ees on her I can say that I fell from the beautiful angel... and I'm willing to be sinful just to be with her. I tried everything to make her fall for me, sir. She became my girlfriend then but things happened. We broke up. After years she went back here and I guess I'm lucky to have her again. To have my angel back to me..." he stopped and turned his gazed on me. Saka bumalik ang tingin kay Daddy. "I hope you'll not be a hindrance to us, sir. But if that's the case I'll fight for her whatever happens. I'll never let go of her. I love her more than everything. I love her more than my life."

I love you too, Elias.

My jaw dropped when I saw him knelt infront of my Dad and my Mom. Pati sila ay nagulat din.

"I admit that I am asshole. I hurt her, yes. But please let me be with your daughter." He pleaded.

Nag-init ang mga mata ko at nagbabadya bumagsak ang mga luha ko.

"Oh my god! Get up, iho." My mom help him to get up. Kaya tinulungan ko din siya.

"Elias, get up now." I told him. "You don't need to do this."

"Why are you crying?" He asked as he wiped the side of my cheek. Umiling nalang ako sa kaniya.

"Get up now young man. I don't want to see my daughter kneeling too." Nagliwanag ang mukha niya at saka kami sabay na tumayo.
