“Family is like a rare diamond, you can’t find a diamond-like them.”

Lilie

“Lilie, can you serve it first at table number 3,” Alexandra pleaded to me and handed the tray at me while I was at the counters, so I glared at her.

“Why?”

“I’m just having

diarrhea, it’s actually coming out, please do it for me,”

she answered me so I frowned and just nodded.

“Oh, all right, get out of my sight,” I pushed her away and pretended to resent her so she stared at me and rolled her eyes.

I picked up the tray containing an ice tea and a slices of chiffon cakee. When I saw table number 3, I immediately took off there.

I smiled at the woman sitting here, it was my batchmate so I put the ice tea and cake in front of her, I would have left when she suddenly shook the ice tea causing it to fall and throw the chiffon cake that she ordered.

“You idiot! You’re just going to lay it on, why you are so clumsy! Stupid!” My eyes widened when she suddenly shouted at me so I looked at her in shock.

I’m still the one who stupid when she was the one who threw it away.

“Miss, you’re the one who threw your Ice tea, why are you blaming me?” I wondered as I bent down to wipe what she had thrown away.

“Am I, really?! The thickness of your face blames me for throwing!”

She shouted.”

When the

truth is, your the one

who’s serving it, " she added.

So I closed my eyes sharply and looked her directly in the eye, as much as possible I do not like to be scandalous too, it is hard to lose my job. And she’s still my batchmate, it’s embarrassing using because she actually making a big scene.

“Miss, I saw how you throw away your ice tea and your cake! Why are you blaming me?

At that point she couldn’t answer, I even saw my co-worker pass by with a tray of ice tea. I was about to leave when the woman suddenly took a tray and she suddenly threw it at me, so I sighed as well as my co-worker and was shocked to stare at her.

We also grabbed a few people’s attention, some of my co-workers approached me and asked what the problem was.

The woman pointed her fingers

at me and shouted again. “That woman, I’m the one who’s being accused of throwing away my Ice tea and cake. Stupid!” she shouted as I wiped my wet face because of the ice tea that she splashes at my face.

So I looked at her and I protected myself. “It’s true, I can clearly see how you shake the Ice tea,” I replied and took a deep breath.

She was about to speak when our manager suddenly came and intervened

“Good day Maam, we review the CCTV and it is obvious that you are the one who spilled the Ice tea and not my worker,” our male manager calmly promised.

“Ma’am if you have any other concerns, we can talk politely and with respect. It is not like this that you are still embarrassing my employee in front of many people,” added our Manager.

So the woman blushed and looked around because she was gaining the attention of everyone.

She looked at me badly and left the cafeteria.. I don’t know why she did that to me, I did nothing wrong. I was just shaken. People nowadays, you do not understand what is running through their

head.

Our Manager approached me, I was about to speak when he wants me to

change my clothes and I did. After I changed, I found Alexandra who took my place as cashier, so I approached her.

“Hey,  Lilie? Are you okay?” she asked me so I just nodded and we changed seats.

“Have you washed your hands yet?” I was joking so she slapped me on the arm and laughed.

“Wow! Of course. By the way, the thickness of that woman face! How dare her who

made up the story. She might be insecure to you,”

she said so I just shrugged 

“Let it go, let’s go back to work,” I just said and we continued working. I just ignored her frowning look.

When I opened our door, I was exposed to scattered bottles of wine and skins of chichirya. I just sighed and looked at my father who was lying on the sofa and sound asleep. I picked up the wine bottles one by one and put them outside the house.

I went in again and went to the kitchen to get the broom reed and scarecrow. When I returned to the living room, it was time for my

mom  to

return home from work.

Like me, she shook her head, so I just laughed at her.

“Mom, I’ll take care of it, rest,” I said to her. But she just shook her head a

 helped me to pick up the clutter.

“No, you’re the one who’s more tired than the two of us. In the morning, you’re studying, and in the evening, you’re working.”

“Your father has the thickness of a face. He is the one left in the house, and the only thing that he will do is to take care of it, that’s the only thing that he will do,” she added so I just laughed.

I wrapped the plastic in the trash and went straight to the kitchen. Then I looked at the table to see if there was a dish that my father cooked.I just frowned when I didn't find a dish, even though my father didn't even cook. So I took the tocino

in the refrigerator and this is what I cooked.

While I was serving, I heard my parents fighting again.

"Hades! Get up there! You know we're tired of your daughter’s work and that's how we're going to get!"

“What ?! You see the man napping here!” Dad shouted.

“All right! Just go to sleep all night! That’s what you always do!” Mama shouted and I saw Papa with a frown.

I just shook my head and sighed. I’m used to their endless fighting so I did nothing but eat alone.

“For you, what is family?” We all stopped at the question of Maam Sanchez, our Filipino teacher.

I saw some of my classmates bend down and look away, others opened their notebook and pretended to write something.

While others looked at me and signaled that I was the only one to answer, so I sneaked secretly.

I also

drowned by that question, for me, what is family? They are always there for you and they will support you or The family is the reason why you do not want to go home anymore.

We all looked at a teacher who suddenly entered our room and told Maam Sanchez that they had a sudden meeting. So I secretly

smiled because our lesson did not continue today and there was more time. After all, we are also going home soon.

When Ma’am came out, all my classmates shouted and the others jumped. There was a tingle behind me so I turned around. I saw my classmate with a big smile and very happy again. “Lilie! We are safe now!” he shouted at me and left in front of me so I just laughed.

My classmates left and I was left alone. I was about to leave when I remembered if everything the teacher was doing to us was okay.

So I took my journal and opened it, I started reading what I listed here.

"The project has been passed, the requirements are in order, the --- is complete" "I was interrupted when someone spoke by my side. I think it's my classmate.

"Lilie, Ma’am Sanchez is giving it to you

 and telling you to give it to Professor Salmazan building 10, room 306," he explained so I took the paper he was holding, and when I looked at it, it was our attendance.

I frowned and looked at him. "All right, I'll take care of it," I promised while frowning so he left in front of me. While I was arranging all my belongings, I was just whispering something, because it was too late when I want to

go home. When I came out, I met many different courses.

Others are wearing teachers uniforms, female nurses wearing skirts above the knee and white polo shirts,

and me? I took a psychology course, our uniforms were white pants and a white polo shirt.

I am still in building 5 so I will have a long walk to do.

Our University consists of ten buildings, each building has three to four floors, so when you get to the fourth floor, you may be dead. Our University is also large, the oval is wide where you can hang out with your friend, we also have a gymnasium that is one hectare in size.

We have a cafeteria that can afford a price of goods, so you will not be a beggar. We are also complete with all the equipment such as a laboratory, computer, and many more that can help us. I am not saying all of us studying here are rich, others are scholarships like me. I was sitting on a bench in our hallway because I was getting tired.

I combed my hair up to my waist and combed it, I wiped my sweat as well. I looked at the building number. I’m in building number 8, you’re almost there, Lilie. So I got up and walked away. Maybe later I will not be able to reach Professor Salmazan.

When you study at La Solidad University, you have to be good at memorizing directions because they are wide and there are many hallways that you will encountered. You will be lost in no time. When I got to building 10, I almost ran to Professor Salmazan’s

who are heading to his car.

“Professor Salmazan!” I shouted causing it to turn to me. He raised an eyebrow when he saw me running to him but later on he smiled.

“Oh, Lilie, is that

you,” he said so I secretly turned around. No, it’s not me, maybe it’s just my soul.

I tried to smiled at him and handed the attendance. “Ma’am. Sanchez is giving it to you,” I said while wiping the sweat on my forehead. So he took it and smiled at me. “Oh, I thought I already bring it, thank you for giving it to me. I can really forget.”

“You can really forget,” I whispered so he looked at me and frowned.

“Are you saying something, hija?” his finger was still flapping so I went straight to him and asked him.

“I said, if I can leave now.”

So he nodded and turned away. I just rested deeply because I was so tired. I just smiled because I can finally go home and rest.

…

Fortunately, I have a restday today at the restaurant where I work, I also have time to do what I want today.

When I got off to the tricycle, I went straight into our house. I was still surprised because Mom came home early. Her clothes are already scattered in the living room.

I also shocked because I did not come home with a bottle of wine and chichirya skin. It's shocking because Mama is now wearing heels. Eh, she always wears flat shoes. So I just let go and decided to go upstairs. As I climbed to our second floor I was nervous, I felt something terrified of I don’t

want to see.

Instead of going straight to my room, I suddenly opened Mom’s room and I was almost loosened up by what I saw. I saw Dad hugging another woman and only a sheet covering their body.

My chest started to get heavier and I felt my blood boiling as I could see now. I didn't realize that I was crying and I dropped the books I was holding causing them both to wake up. Dad's woman woke up first so I looked at her sharply, I saw how her face paled when she saw me.

I was even angrier when I saw Dad awake and quickly put on his clothes. I could not control the anger I was feeling. I unexpectedly

pulled the woman’s hair.

“You son of a bitch! How could you do this to us, you’re just a fucking mistress of my

 Dad! Where is your shame!” I shouted angrily as I pulled her down the stairs.

I heard Dad scream and rushed downstairs. I faced the woman’s face and my blood boiled even more because she still wanted to scream and cry.

“Don’t fucking cry in front of me! You’re just a mistress!”

The woman in front of me just disappeared when suddenly someone overtook me and I looked at my Dad who is

angry at me. I cried, even more, when he grabbed my jaw and tightened it even more.

“Let me go! Mom needs to know this! You are cheating on her! You are cheating on us!” I shouted and I tried to remove his grip on my jaw, but Dad pressed it even harder and his face darkened at what I said.

“Try it, I’m going to kill the two of you! Try me, Lilie, I can do that,” he said and smirked at me.

I was even more frightened when he said he was going to kill us, so I shook my head and spoke.

“I know that you won’t do that, Dad. Just because of that woman, you are willing to kill your family ?!” I shouted

angrily. So he tightened his grip on my jaw even more.

“Who says I have a wife and a child ?! For me, you are just

rubbish! You are worthless!”

I cried even harder because of what he said. Suddenly my world stopped spinning and my heart broke even more.

“Why are you like this, Dad? Why are you doing this to us?” I whispered while my voice is shaking, but the anger flared even more in his eyes.

Instead of answering me, he pushed me hard so I sat on the cold floor. I looked at my Dad who was now leading his woman out of our house. And because of what he did, I closed my eyes and just cried.
