"This is the start of something new.." I wasn't really expecting that he would wanted to see me again. I was really surprised.
"Good morning Ms. Margarette. :)" he texted early in the morning.
I instantly texted him back, "You woke up eaaaarly. Any, morning also nerdy chicken."
A text from him brightened up my day. Reminiscing the moment we had last night.
"Now, its my turn to protect you.." Those words echoed in my mind. What does it mean? So he wanted to protect me? Why did he say such thing? Does he really mean it? Questions begun to pop up in my mind. Marco is the one who can answer these questions.
I went downstairs to have my breakfast. Which is my daily routine to have breakfast with my mom coz' due to our busy schedules this is the only time we could eat together.
"Hi mom!" Hugging her tightly.
"Looks like your in a good mood hunnie."
I giggled. "Kinda?"
"So Whos with you last night?" she asked in a curious eyes.
My mom wanted me to have a boyfriend but once she met my suitors, she instantly changed her mind. Then she will just used her powerful lines "What if you get married? How about me? I will be here left alone. What if something bad happened to me? (Then she will just knock-on-wood to prevent the bad omen) Blah. Blah." So in that case, due to her dramatic acting skills, I decided not to entertain suitors.
"Oh well. A long lost friend of mine." Reaching the box of cerials on the cabinet.
"Oh.. You aren't telling me that you have a long lost friend." She raised her eyebrow to me.
"MUUUUM!" hugging her again.
"Here have some cereals." I kissed her in the cheeks and gave her the box of cereals.
"I know.. I'm just worried."
The reason why my mom is like that coz' she had a failed marriage to who else but my dad. They are always arguing stuffs that both of them only knew. I was 7 years old then when they decided to have an annulment. As a kid that time, I don't have any idea what was going on between the two of them. My mom kept telling me that due to the work of my dad he had to go somewhere else far away from us. Which is always my reasonable exuse whenever my classmates are looking for my dad. There were few moments to remember with my dad. I think the happiest moment I had with him. hmmm.. I guess there is none to remember..
Now, I am 23 yrs old, years have been passed and I don't get to see my dad. No calls, texts or e-mails. According to my aunt, the sister of my long lost father that he has now have a new family. 2 kids. And they lived at Missisaunga, Canada. Well, best wishes to my dad. Hoping hes doing well right now.
I don't have grudges towards my parents. If they decided to part ways, if they think that's the best thing to do. It's fine with me. At least, I have a mom whos always besides me. And for that I salute her for being the bestest mom ever!
"Muuum. You don't have to. He was just an old friend during our h.s days. Nothing to worry about." I smiled while holding her hand.
"Thanks Hunnie. For understanding me."
"yes mother dear. I know.. Look! You have lots of lines in your face. So better relax. Okay?" I said to lighten up the conversation and stop her from emoting again.
She just smiled at me.
If ever I have been given a chance to give her a reward that would be "The best emotional/loving/caring/tough mother".
So after having a breakfast to my best actress mother dear. I hurried to go upstairs. I grabbed my phone. I got 10 messages. Some messages were from the clients.
Two messages from Marco. The first message:
"yup I have to get up early. Can't wait to see you later. "
The second message:
"how about we could watch a movie. I have free tickets. :D"
I texted him back saying "yeah sure i love to! See yah! :)"
Lets just see what will happen later. Hoping it would be a good one. *crossing my two fingers*
Playing the song Hero of Foo Fighters on my I-pod.
"There goes watching as he goes." I murmured.
