Chapter 52
"There you are again! Stop calling me stupid!" I'm really going to strangle him in a few seconds when I can't stop him!
"Okay, go ahead and tell me. What is your job? Do you really have a job or do you f-feel like you just have a job?"
"Stop asking, I won't tell you."
Shake it and look at me seriously now.
"Aha! You don't want to say that maybe the job you're taking is illegal? Am I right huh ?!" I asked while raising an eyebrow at him.
"Do you think I'm the type of person who does or runs an illegal business?"
I suddenly thought of what he said. For me, it might be similar to what happened at the hotel, that I was completely skeptical of him and then I thought it was wrong and then even if I was just joking with him now, eh, what I was saying might hurt him. Maybe he won't notice me soon, this man will hit me again.
"Just a joke, you're really not joking." I said and laughed while slapping him on the shoulder.
"All right, I'll just cook muns now." I turned my back on him and went to the kitchen. I saw what we ate-- this is what I ate.
"I'll take care of it."
I suddenly turned to my side and saw him standing, he was still covered in dust while staring at what I was eating.
"Thank you," I just said and I started cooking. It's just quiet here so I just decided to sing while I was cooking.
I stopped singing and what I was doing to feel like there were eyes staring at me now and I saw that it was really Xander.
"I'm good at singing, right? Right ??"
My promise is mixed with pride.
My voice is really beautiful, it's very natural and my ears will hurt because it's so beautiful.
"Yes, I'm so good at cutting my ear, I want to come out of my ear just to applaud you."
"Come here, I'll sing for you too."
I quickly approached him.
He said he wouldn't sing for me.
"I want to punch you slowly, holding hands, closing eyes--" he didn't finish his lifeless song when I spoke.
"Did you trip me! I'll punch you, tsk!" I turned my back on him and finished cooking it.
I'm even better at singing with him, I'm even better when I sing alive, isn't he? It was as if the ice had bathed him in the cold.
"Aren't you tired of this dish? Hotdog?" I will ask. Earlier, the dish was also a hotdog and then yesterday. Does he really like hotdogs? At least the hotdog food is delicious okay!
"If you're tired, you can buy your own dish." I didn't say anything, did I? Did I say I'm getting tired?! I just asked if he was tired!
"Ouch!" I moaned when I fell. I plan to heat water because I want to have coffee.
After I complained, I was surprised when someone pulled my hand. He held it and blew. "Don't you know how to be careful huh ?!"
"You're so clumsy at times!" Bulyaw nya sakin.
Is he mad at me? Did my hand burn? Is he worried?
I immediately looked in the other direction as he turned to look at me again. My heart is starting to beat faster again. I'm just going to pray that he doesn't hear my heart like it's going crazy!
I felt his hand grab my jaw and face me. "Are you okay?" A question that made my heart beat faster.
I bit my lip before slowly nodding at him.
"Be careful sometimes!" Suddenly he scolded me again and I closed my eyes in shock.
Just sometimes? Can't he always say that? He only wants me to be careful once! Tsk, so does that mean he also wants me to be ruined ?!
"What's going on in your little brain?" I looked at him after he said that.
"My little brain? Do you want a fight ??" I asked him a question but he didn't answer.
"You're just going to cook--"
"I'm done cooking." I cut to the word. Didn't he see that hotdog was already there in front of him, it was already served on the table! Where are his sinful eyes looking?
He let go of my hand and sat down on the chair. "Wake up Elizabeth first." He said and I noticed the expression on his face that I couldn't even explain.
"Why?" I wondered.
"Probably going to eat?" Ask for this promise.
Oh, yes, my son hasn't eaten yet, so the three of us haven't eaten yet. Maybe my son is still asleep? What a pity for my son.
"What? Am I the one to wake up with him or you?" I suddenly woke up when he spoke again.
"I'll wake up my son tsk! Just excited, can't wait ah?" I just stared at him and walked to the bedroom.
When I was close to the door I would have opened it in case I heard someone talking in the room. It's Elizabeth's voice and she's obviously talking to someone so I'm curious.
I slowly opened the door a little and I saw him sitting on the bed while holding a cellphone and it was in front of his ear.
"I miss you Daddy. Really? Huh? Which man? Ahh, Daddy Xander is kind to me. Daddy is kind to me? Daddy Xander isn't like that, he's kind to us and to Mommy then Daddy has I'll tell you... "
Daddy? Who is Daddy he is referring to? What the heck didn't he tell Daren he's talking to now ?! Where did he get Daren's number and then why is he talking to that man !! He really kept it a secret from me, did he mean it?
"Mommy and Daddy Xander have a rela--" I immediately went in to stop him from telling me.
"Elizabeth!"
I quickly walked to where he was and snatched the cellphone he was holding now.
I looked at the screen and my head suddenly heated up when I saw Daddy with the name don on his nickname.
"Mommy,"
[Hello? Son?] My blood boiled when I heard that voice. Xander just bought my son's cellphone so how did he get Elizabeth's number? I myself don't know his number yet, is he done ?? Putang*nang lalaking 'to ayaw talaga kami tigilan !!
"Don't talk to him ever again!" I just told me and he dropped the line.
"Mommy why did you do that!"
He quickly took his cellphone back from me.
"I'm still talking to my Daddy!" There was a hint in his voice that he was disgusted with me.
"Do you still prefer your daddy who is a cheater ?! Your Daddy Xander and I are getting married so don't call your daddy, forget about him first. Don't you like Xander sweetie?" I tried to make my voice soft eventually.
"Yeah, I want him for you Mommy ... but I didn't say that he can replace Daddy. He will be my Daddy but only for the second time, my real Daddy will still be my number 1."
"What is it Elizabeth! Why are you acting like that huh ?? Did your daddy say something about being a cheater ?!" I couldn't stop him from raising his voice.
"Don't call him fool first, you're just the same. Do you have to clean up in front of me Mommy? It's good that daddy shows me and tells me what he's doing wrong or not right, he doesn't clean, he shows He tells me what he is, he won't lie ... can you? When will you confess and prove yourself to me? " She stared at me and when she stared at me, it was as if I wasn't her mother.
"W-What are you saying Elizabeth?"
I don't understand him, is he like that when he talks to me? Just like in the past, he seemed to treat me the same way when he mentioned Daren.
"I'm young and I know that Mommy but not like you think, I'm not blind or stupid so I can only believe in you. I know how to think, I also have ears and eyes and most of all I have my own brain who can understand what's going on in our lives and especially with you and Daddy. " Its language.
"I don't understand you. B-Is it like you're pretending that your daddy and I are both m-cheaters? That I'm cleaning up? That I'm a liar ?? P-You're pretending that I'm the bad guy of the two of us? Is that so?"
The two of us still stared at each other.
I immediately looked in the other direction when I felt the tears dripping from my eyes, before they dripped I immediately wiped them.
"And when did I become bad Elizabeth ?? Did I become bad to you and your daddy? When did I lie? I'll admit that when it comes time, you two know that I'm doing everything I can to give you that. -"
"That's all right, isn't it? Because you're mommy and Daddy is your husband. What do you want? We both beg you to give us time? It's as if you're just being forced to give us time, which should be The time you gave us is really for your company. "
I can't help but hate what he's saying to me now. I wiped my tears from my cheeks and tried to calm myself.
"That ... is that what Daren taught you? Did he tell you all that?" Is he doing everything just to be in my son's eyes and to take my son away from me ?! He may be mistaken because no matter what he does, he will never be able to get my child from me!
"I sacrificed everything E-Elizabeth then y-is that what you're going to repay me for now huh? N-You've probably seen how difficult things are for me in our lives right now and you've also seen how tired I am every time I go home at home from work, I do everything to be the perfect mother for you ... "
"Daddy was right, you're only thinking about your sacrifices. Why Mommy? Did Daddy do nothing? What about his sacrifices? Do you want to be the one to always be in the spotlight? Being a workaholic mother, a perfect wife and mother, a great mother ... who is not a liar and a hypocrite. "
I could see in his eyes that there were tears forming in his eyes.
"You ... you c-cheated as well, Mommy. That's what Daddy s-said to me and it's also your fault why D-Daddy also cheated on you." Her tears kept falling in her eyes and I was stunned by what she said.
"H-That's not true,"
"You c-cheated on with D-Dad first! Y-You're a cheater, you're a cheater just like him !!!" He shouted at me and because of that I couldn't stop myself from raising his hand.
"What Mommy? M-You're going to hurt me now?"
"I'm... I'm s-sorry sweetie, Mommy can't do that to you." I touched both his cheeks and wanted to hug him but I was stopped by what he said.
"Isn't it?"
What's on his mind? Does he know that I'm hurt by what he's doing to me now? What is Daren saying to the child ?! Why did I even become bad?
I cheated ?? Really! I don't remember that I left or flirted with others so I don't fully understand why I became a cheater, that I was the first to cheat on him!
"What's going on here?" I turned to the door to hear Xander's voice. I wiped away my tears before standing up and facing him.
"Watch Elizabeth first." I just said and quickly left the room. I couldn't help but sob as I walked down the stairs and thought about what my son had said to me.
Am I pretending? Cleaning? It was really my own son who said no to me. I can't quite imagine that this will happen, that the time will come when he will be like that to me.
When I finally got downstairs I went out of Xander's house and picked up my cellphone.
[Hello?] That's Daren's voice on the other line.
"You're crazy! What did you say to him huh ?! Did you insult me?" I asked him angrily.
"Can't you really think of any other way to get him from me Daren? Are you that desperate !!" I keep myself from stuttering and I don’t want him to think I’m crying right now.
[I have no plans to take him with you. You're the only one who's serious about it, I just want to talk to him because I missed my son.] This promise is calm to me.
"She's not your child! Ever since you cheated on me and we broke up you haven't had a child! Elizabeth is my child and now she shouldn't recognize you as a father!"
[You shouldn't say that. He is my son, he is our son! Even if we separate, I will still treat her as my daughter Elyse! You can't stop me from being his father!]
"When I say no, I can't! Don't you understand?" Where is my question.
"Then the thickness of your face to tell him that I was the first to cheat on the two of us? Is it really Daren? When did I cheat on you? And when did I have sex with you or maybe flirt with another man huh? I don't know what's on my mind you now but this is all I can tell you, stop messing with Elizabeth first! Stop talking to her first and say something just to ruin me with her! "
[This is all I can say. We don't keep secrets from each other Elyse. Many of you still don't know me and only our child knows and it's her choice if she's saying that to you right now. I didn't order him to tell you that.]
"Liar ... do you think I'll believe you? Do you think I'll believe what you're telling me-hey !! I'm still talking to you you idiot !!" I shout into the cellphone.
"Bwesit ka sa buhay Darennnn !!!" I shouted and just clenched my fist.
I hadn't even finished speaking but the phone rang right away!
I just calmed myself before entering the house. I hurried to the bedroom because we hadn't even eaten yet.
I was about to go inside but I heard the two of them talking.
"I don't even know who's really telling the truth about the two of them." I heard Elizabeth's voice from here outside the door.
"You know what Daddy Xander, I learned one thing this month. Everyone lies, everyone can lie and invent a story. Even if they are parents, children or relatives of yours, they can lie to you. no matter when they want to or maybe invent a story ... and the only problem is if they stand by what they say. "
What are the two of them really talking about.
"Did you two fight with your Mommy?"
"No, we're just talking but ... honestly I got mad at her when she got mad because I'm talking to my Dad early and because of that I can't stop saying those words to her, I didn't mean it though. "
"You should say sorry to her Elizabeth. She's your mother and you shouldn't talk to her like that, whether what you said is true or not, you should still respect her." The language is Xander.
I sighed first before I slowly opened the door. "L-Let's eat don."
"Come on," he took my son's hand and they both stood up at the same time.
"M-Mommy..." I noticed that he was hesitant to tell me what he was thinking now or not.
"Hmm?" I bit my lip.
"I-I'm sorry for what I said earlier..." I cried when he approached me and hugged me tightly.
