STAR GAZING AT HER MOON

Chapter XCVI: Confused

UNO'S POV:

I'm sleeping when someone is tapping my face gently and slowly.

Gradually sumasakit na and when I open my eyes na it was Dino pinipisil ang pisnge ko na parang galit.

"Gigising ka or ipapatapon kita sa labas?!", ay sungit naman ng bungad.

"Why you're so masungit?", I asked pouting.

"Get up and clean yourself. Ang baho nyo ni Daddy", she said and when I turn my gaze around.

I saw Tito na nakayakap kay Tita naglalambing habang si Tita mukhang galit sa kanya at pinapagalitan din.

"Diba I told you yesterday na tama na ang inom. You always say na yes, yes. Yung yes nauwing lasing na lasing ka", Tita said pinching his ears.

Oh I remember now, Tito and I nagkayayaan mag-inuman which nagstart kami after dinner mga 8 pm something and we ended mga 12 na siguro no'n.

Well, my head hurts kasi malakas yung alcohol content ng whisky na ininom namin ni Tito last night.

Yun kasi paborito nya and hindi naman ako pwedeng tumanggi baka putulin agad ni Tito yung contract namin, di pa ako paabutin ng 2 weeks.

Well, pang 4 days ko na dito which gradually we're all getting along with each other especially si Tito.

"Mommy pabayaan mo yan silang dalawa. Let's eat breakfast nalang", Dino said and stood up.

"Dino are you mad?", "Hon, are you mad?", Tito and I said in unison.

"Oo", Tita and Dino answered back in unison too.

Well masakit talaga ulo ko kaya pinikit ko ulit ang mata ko and the two beautiful girls walk inside the dining.

I felt someone kicking me which I groaned slightly but it didn't stop and when I open my eyes again, si Tito pala.

"Bumangon ka jan, alam mong maldita yang anak ko mana sa Nanay", Tito said and sat on the couch while massaging his head.

"Tito ang sakit talaga ng ulo ko", I ranted which he chuckled.

"Sus, wala ka pala eh. Ang hina mo pina-inom lang kita taob kana. Tigilan mo na ang anak ko", he said which I slowly get up to sit also.

"I'm not use to drink po kasi that's why di gaanong malakas ang alcohol tolerance ko po", I said.

"Di mahina ka talaga", he said.

"And I don't drink also kasi di gusto ni Dino na umiinom po ako. I'm following your daughter not because mahina po ako. I respected her so much and I know she's just caring po", I said which ang bilis nya akong binatukan.

"Lintek ginagalinggan mo. Humanda ka sa akin", he said na nanggigigil.

"Uno", "Greggy", the two girls from the dining shouted.

"Coming Hon and Baby", Tito said and taps my shoulder to follow.

I slowly get up from my seat and follow inside with Tito which ang sama ng tingin nila sa amin habang si Victoria tawa ng tawa.

"Yan shot puno pa", Victoria said.

"Tumigil ka jan!", her Daddy said.

Ate Mona then came in bringing two cups of coffee which nagulat ako kasi bawal kami sa kape dahil ayaw ni Dino nyan.

"Hey you're drinking coffee?", I asked her.

"No, sa inyo yan ni Daddy", she said and Ate Mona put it on the side of our plates ni Tito.
