Janice Sarmineto Point Of View
Our family has long hoped to find our only daughter. In a very long time, Our prayer was finally fulfilled.
“Forgive your older brothers cause you're lost because of us” Said by Franco, My eldest son. She just looked at us and didn't answer, Franco bowed when my daughter didn't answer him.. My husband just patted his shoulder.
"Love?" He squeezed my daughter's hand "They are talking to you but you don't respond" He said softly.
"S-sorry, I was just shocked" She explained.
"It's okay daughter" My husband replied.
"I-I don't know what to say" She suddenly cried.
I stood up and approached her "Daughter don't cry" I held her hands.
"I-I'm just happy M-mom because I can be with you. I can be with my real family" I cried at what she called me She accepts me as her Mother "I just can't believe it, It's like a dream" She laughed at what she said "But it's true" And smiled sweetly. Her fiancé looked at her and nodded. She stood up and hugged me "Mommy" She cried when she mentioned that, I caressed her back.
"I'm here my daughter" I comforted her but she didn't stop to cry. I support her towards her father.
"Daddy" Her cry got louder.
"H-here's daddy princess" He hugged her tightly.
"Kuya" Franco and Austin approached as soon as she called them.
"Princess, Forgive us" My son Austin cried. She stood up and hugged the necks of the two brothers.
"I-it's not your fault k-kuya" She stammered. They hugged their youngest sister.
“We miss you so much princess. We badly miss you” Franco said.
"But you're here, We're going to rebuild the family we destroyed before" Austin added. My husband and I smiled at our children.
Adam Maniego Point Of View
I smile watching them, I am happy for the woman I love the most. But she is getting too emotional. It is forbidden to her..
"Blair stopped crying please" I said, She ignored me so I just sighed as her father looked at me.
"Is there a problem young man?" He asked me.
"Yes Uncle, She can't cry roo much because she might get depressed again" I explained.
"Depressed?" Who looks confused at what I said.
"She has situational depression. She can't be emotional and she might get sick again"
"Is her depression treatable?"
"Yes Uncle, She's taking medicine for this but it seems to be ineffective and she's had problems and she hasn't stopped crying since she got out of the hospital a week ago" As I was explaining Blair's situation. Aunt suddenly cried out.
"Marco, Your daughter oh God" I ran to blair who is now from her brother.
"What happened to her ijo?" Aunt asked while crying.
"Auntie depression attacking her again" Kuya Franco laid her down on a long chair "Let's just wait for her to wake up" I exclaimed.
"Marco what happened to my duaghter" Uncle explained Blair's situation and Auntie cried even more when she found out while her two brothers were already clenching their fists.
An hour later Blair woke up as well "Martha water" Uncle shouted. A woman came with water and handed it to Uncle. She gave it to her daughter.
"Are you okay?" She nodded at my question.
"I was attacked again?" She asked sadly, I nodded.
"Reduce the crying so you don't get attacked by your depression" I said seriously and she reciprocated with a miserly smile. Her father approached her and asked her feeling. Aunts have also prepared dinner for their helpers.
"Let's have dinner" While we were having dinner I could feel the joy on my love face. Pleasure filled the dining room table. After we ate, Blair and her mother talked again while her father and two brothers invited me to drink. I did not refuse and drank too.
"Are you our sister's boyfriend?" Kuya Franco asked.
I nodded "We're almost three years"
I told them about Blair's life at the hands of the Lopez. The three men in front of me were irritated.
"You know what Blair thought Miles is her real sister that I would have sued" I said. I'm a little drunk "It's just that Blair said she didn't want that to happen because she wanted them to go back to the family she thought was before" I added.
"She broke up with me, She thought. I cheated because of what Miles did to us. She thought I had a affair behind her with what she thought was her brother. But everything was just a set up" I cried when I remembered the incident when she broke up with me "Then we still didn't get along. She was shot. She was declared comatose. I was very hurt to see her having a hard time. I even hurt Miles because I was so angry"
“I don’t know if I am still worthy for her" I bowed.
"From what you told us ijo I think you should still deserve my daughter, I vote for you ijo" Uncle Marco said. I smiled when he said that his children agreed with him.
"I want her Uncle to be my wife but I don't want to take her time with you first. I want you to make up for the time lost to your family before we get married, I won't let her go" My Uncle suddenly hugged me in what I said.
"Thank you son, I'm very happy with what you said. I know you want to tie her up but for us you set aside it" He said enthusiastically while wiping away his tears.
"It's nothing Uncle for the woman I love the most" We continued drinking when we ran out of wine we entered inside their mansion. Aunt and Blair are still in the living room.
"Adam ijo don't come home you should sleep here" Aunt Janice said. I nodded to her "Will you be okay if you sleep in Blair's room? Is it okay to you?" Aunt asked.
I shook my head "Even though I'm just here in the living room" Aunt frowned at what I said.
"Why? You don't want Blair next to you?" I shook again.
"No Aunt, I'm drunk! May be I can do something that I shouldn't do hehe" I forced myself to laugh. That was akward.
"I tell you honey Adam truly respect our daughter" Uncle said proudly. We all laughed at what he said "You're just going to stay in the guest room Adam" Uncle added.
Blair took me to the guest room where I was staying but before she left she gave me a kiss "Thank you love" I hugged her and kissed her on the forehead. When she left I lay down and let myself be swallowed up by drowsiness.
