family "matters"
yesterday, i got a text from tito jessie that goes something like, rio and lorrie, bakit hindi kayo pumunta sa LOLA nyo para makita namin na dinadalaw niyo siya... oo, pwede niyo sabihin na sa ibang araw kayo pupunta pero wala naman kayong inaasikaso. ba't naman kayo ganun?
i was shocked. coming from him, i know that he (and maybe other family members) is mad at us, well always naman e. little things pagagalitan na kami. either we were there or not, may sasabihin at sasabihin sila tungkol sa amin. just like nung birthday ni gp. i don't see the point why THEY HAVE TO SEE US visit our LOLA. WHAT'S THE POINT? if we went there on another day and invited them to SEE US visit lolo and lola, will they come? doesn't he know that kuya goes to antipolo to bring flowers from laguna to give to lolo and lola? everytime we light up incense in our house, does he know who we pray for? doesn't he know that even if we are far away, we were the ones who cooked the food nung oct. 25? doesn't he know that lakeview was the one who cleaned up their mess nung saturday?
not just that. when our guard called yaya violy, he told lino that they were mad at us because we were the only ones NOT there. it was also carla's birthday celebration. so nagtatampo daw si tita corie sa amin. no one texted or informed us that carla was celebrating also.
so we texted him our reason, we planned to go nung sat, kaso nagkaproblem sa pool namin may guest pa naman po kami. kelangan maghanap ni kuya ng gagawa at bibili ng gamit. siya po nagbantay dahil wala kaming maid. ako nasa san juan na para sa despedida ng byenan ko. dun na sana magmeet sa antipolo. since di makakarating si kuya, we planned to go on tuesday. sinamahan ko na lang po si ala magtrick or treat sa acro.
he texted back, ang dami niyong inaasikaso pero para bisitahin niyo ang LOLO at LOLA niyo di ninyo magawa. pero trick or treat pumunta kayo. bahala nga kayo sa mga desisyon niyo!
my family might say that we are ungrateful for what we did not do nung saturday. but i know in my heart that i LOVE my LOLA. family comes first, that's why i joined ala at acro for her first trick or treat. what's wrong with that? i'm thinking na wag na lang kami kaya pumunta sa Christmas, baka sabihin nila na andun lang kami para sa pera.
i'm just so upset. there is ALWAYS a reason, big or small, why they get mad at us. nakatali na lang lagi kami sa leeg. the worst part is, we can't do anything about it. wala naman kaming panlaban. lagi na silang tama. lagi kaming mali.
