Chapter 2 My Final Decision

"Is that all you're staring at, Honey? This is all I can tell you. Their family is kind so I'm sure their son is also kind, ok!" mom came up to me and hugged me.

"But mom! I'm not ready to get married yet uhm"

"Honey! Your dad's friend said so. They won't rush you even if you want to! you and your wife are old. Just get married! that's what's important there!"

I haven't lost to mom yet. Because you might just hit us. That's what I don't want to happen.

At that time I could not accept that but mom explained it.

"Your father's told me this before he passed away. He told me to tell you about this wedding. And their family also i already talked to him"

I just nodded when mom finished said it.

"That's why I'm going to marry the son of their friend, mom and dad, That's a close family because that's also a way to get our business back"

"When I gradually understood everything, I couldn't refuse. Dad also didn't want me and mom to be difficult because there were only two of us in life. Because dad left us" I woke up in my mind when mom spoke

"All right honey, you can rest now"

"Okay mom, I'm going to the bedroom" then i stand up and walk.

"Okay honey! Come down later for dinner. I don't have anyone to eat with. "

"Why!?, Where is Jing? "

"She go home first, his aunt came from Manila"

"Ahh! ok mom, I'm going up! "

I'm still chasing after mama, because I'm already on the stairs.

"All right honey! You need to rest well"

I heard mom last words before i arrived at my room.

I'm in the bedroom I want to sleep but I'm not sleepy. Just staring at the ceiling, not even staring at the bed.

"Hayst!" Dad has been gone for more than three years now. Just last month mom told me everything "I said to myself.

"I was only 5 years old when we were at a birthday party. Our family was invited to the birthday of their best friend and thier close family. Me and the boy, the son of papa's friend, saw us playing. He said I was shy then not to approach other people even when I was a child I was wild with people. So did the boy.

"Ohh! Isn't it weird that people used to be in ancient times. Because mom and dad were like that, they also got along in their time. And the only difference is that mom and dad knew each other then, "I whispered to myself.

"Eh! it's me! We met when we were young. I can't even remember how he looked and what he looked like! " I whispered to myself.

"There is another reason why the pope bothered me. Since the dowry when we got married. Our bankrupt company is still redeemed, "I thought as my face sank.

Because my dad friend and he trusted his was cheating. Because of that incident, papa started to get sick. Until we redeemed the company. Because he was in debt, no one seemed to be able to face papa then. So papa's illness got worse because of the problem. Until he could no longer cope, he was taken away from us.

"Arrange marriage with exchange" It hurts to think for me. even so, I thought carefully about everything that would happen.

"Even though I'm having a hard time and dad likes it. Maybe dad is just thinking about my future" in my mind.

"My decision is final i agreed to get married it was also. For our company because mom and dad also worked hard for it. I also want to get our company back. I will do it for dad and mom it also in the company too. Which is mom always said it that their family is kind. So I won't have a hard time living with them when that time comes "I woke up thinking when someone knocked.

"Who's that?"

"Its me sister! We are eating now"

"All right, I'm coming"

"What time is it? I look at the phone its already 6:30 pm. What was that just this afternoon and now the speed of time is gone. I haven't even taken a nap for a moment" I whispered to myself.

I left the room and went down the stairs just as I stepped, on the floor, it was that I exactly was face into the mirror and i saw my face.

"Urgh! My face look so haggard, my eye bag! Getting" i whisper to my self while i rolled my eyes.

"Honey, come here we start to eat! You might get sick from what you're doing to your self"

With my arms went down while I walked to the dining are.

"Sister! You Look like a ghost woman! " then she laugh, "Hahaha"

"Jing! you're too bulgar! "I just stared at him.

"Just kidding!, Why are you so stressed, look you're so beautiful then now your face like a ghost"

"You know! Who can't be stressed about it, know you what i mean" i rolled my eyes.

Mom scolded us.

"Shh! Its enough for that's, its time for us to eat! Common"

"I'm sorry aunt!"

"Uhm! Its fine, there you go, just eat before the food gets cold "

In few minutes...

We just eaten without noise. It's like we angry sitting up some thing like that. When we finished eating i went in the living area, I seated here and staring at the wall. While mom she helps Jing. Put away the food, Even if it's Jing's job, mom will still help her.

"Even if we have a maid, we can't be considered them like a helpers. They also treated like they are like a family. That's why I grew up to be a kind child. Obedient, and loving, because that's what mom and dad teaches me to be a good person. So maybe dad get fast outwit, Because he trusts that must person too much "I woke up thinking of mom stepping aside of me.

"Honey! Are you still thinking about marriage? "

"Not anymore mom, I've already made up my mind"

"What is that Honey?"

"That's I am willing to get married, but not yet mom im not ready for it"

"It's good to heard you that honey im happy for you, so you won't always be an conscious, then you can get sleep well"

"Mama!" I hugged mom at the same time. "I love you so much! I want to get your business back with dad so I will agree to get married. I'm sorry mom i took so long to tell you my decision. Even without Dad, we will build it. Let's get up again Mom. If Dad when he's anywhere now! he was happy to see us"

"Excuse me, Untie, and Sister i get going at my room you can take your time now" Jing said it. When she distract what we talked about mom.

"Ok Jing good night" mom siad it.

"Good night Jing sleep well" and i waves my hands to her.
