“HE NEVER LEAVES ME”
He never leaves me because no matter what happens he is always by my side. By the way I am Cyrhyll Ivanne R. Manalo, a 16-years-old student and my story goes like this.
I grew up with a complete family and I am so thankful to God for that because I have my mother, my father and also my sister, we have lived in Cebu City. I am so lucky to have them in my life. My parents have a stable job, they work in Mactan Cebu City. We are a happy family and always have a family bonding every Sunday. We always go to the malls and also to church. But aside from our happy moments there is also a sad moment. My parents fought in fornt of me and my sister because my father have an affair with another woman and that is always their issue, but still they can solve all the problems they had. Until my father go to abroad for his work and my mother resigned from her work to take care of us. I always help my mother in the house chores and also in making furniture display and always accompany us in school. Before my father went abroad he got my mother pregnant and we are so blessed and happy because we have a new member in our family. Even my father is far from us I still feel complete because we always communicate through phone. I must say that we are lucky and the best family, not until my mom passedaway. She passedaway because she gave birth to my youngest sister and without us, she already suffer from a heart disease. She never told us about her condition, and during her labor time she didn`t want to have a CS labor. She pursue her self to have a normal labor, and that`s the reason why she died because she did not carry the pain. That`s the time I feel nothing because my mother left us. I am so down that time because I lost my queen.
I always blame my self because I never stop for her decission and I did not signed the waver for CS and I thimk it`s all my fault. I lost my hope that time, but God is good because he never left me. Even he took my mother still he let my youngest sister to live in this world and we are so lucky and happy to have her. But stil it`s sad because after my mother`s burial we left Cebu and came her in Iligan for good. When we arrived here in Iligan my father gave my youngest sister to my uncle who have not a child. It`s akso my fault because I let him to give my sister to my uncle. After that my father went back to abroad and left us to my grandmother. God never left us because he puts us in a right situation He is good because he let my yougest sister to know about her real family which is me and my sister. If there is a happy moments there is also a sad moments. My father came here in Iligan bringing his new wife. We accept her because we don`t have a choive and it`s also my father`s decission. Because of that my aunt already hate my father because they don`t like my stepmother. That`s the time I hate my life life because I don`t know which of them I will believe. I don`t know what to do because my aunt says bad things about my father and his new wife. My father and his new wife says bad things about my aunt. Me and my sister experienced of being abandoned, but in the end my aunt gave us to my father. After how many years of living in my father`s side were going okay.Until my stepmom decided to go in abroad to work, and she ledt the three of us. When the time my stepmom go in abroad, that`s also the time that my father became a drug user, and he did not take good care of us as his children. Until one day he had an affair to other woman and they lived together and leave us without giving us a money and food, me and my sister suffered for how many days of without eating a food. But thanks to God, because my aunt call us and I tell her all about our situation, and she told us to live in their house.
After how many months of living in my aunt`s house, my father came and cross our paths. But I never questioned him why he left us hanging. We talk to my father like there`s nothing happen for the past few months. I always communicate to my father who dumped us for the past few months, but still I don`t care because he is still my father and I loved him so much. Before my father came back there`s a rumor that he is already dead because of the “tokhang”. I never believed of the rumors about my father because I know that God will never leave him and I never feel a strange feeling about the rumors because I know that is not true. And we are so blessed because my father came back alive. A month passed by, after my father cameback, my stepmom also cameback here in Philippines and they lived together again. Eventhough they live together again, me and my sister still living in my aunt`s house, not until my family in Cebu argue about the house that they sell. My aunt in Cebu told us to go in Cebu to get our share and my aunt don`t let my ather know about that because they are sure that my father will get our share, but unfortunately my father already know about that because he read the conversation between me and my aunt in Cebu because I left my messenger in his phone. After two days of arrival in Cebu, my father also arrived and we don`t know that he followed us. After how many days of staying in Cebu, we cousins are gathered and have a simple bond together with my father. We go to the mall and take a pictures and then post it on facebook. That`s the reason why my aunt here in Iligan get mad at us and gave us back to my father, but I never regret what my aunt`s decission, and I was thankful for that bevause me and my father will be together again. I am still thankful for taht because even when we are not in my aunt`s side still they acept and forgive us. I am thankful to god because he never leave us and he always guide us. Now, I am still facing the trials that God have given me, and I know I can pass all these trials because God never left me and he never will. THE END !!!
