Dear Mama,

Why am I so gullible? Why do I let people run over me? Is it wrong to trust people?

I wish you're here, Mama. I need you.

Dear Mama,

I woke up at 2 a.m. and I cannot sleep anymore, it's almost 3 a.m. I'm feeling better now, Mama but I am still bothered by cough and occasional headache.

I don't know if I should be thankful, bothered, worry, or excited. I have an opportunity for another company and I don't know if I should grab it or stay put for a while. I know I should be thankful, Mama. Not everybody at my age will always have opportunities like this come to them. As always, my decision should be what would benefit the kids most. I just wish you are here Mama... at least to hug me and hold my hands.

I miss you, Mama. I love you.

Dear Mama,

My whole body aches right now. My back aches, my head aches, my joints ache. I  think I'm having the flu, Mama. I wish you were Mama so you can take care of me.

Visit me tonight, Mama. I need you. Make me well, Mama. I miss you.

I love you, Mama.

Dear Mama,

I just got a confirmation of my appointment as the Team Leader after almost a month, unfortunately the effectivity will be on Monday, October 13. It's funny though that I have been assuming the responsibility even before I was confirmed, I thought it will be retroactive. Oh well, I guess it's better late that never.

I hope you're proud of me, Mama.

I love you.

Dear Mama,

This morning I was able to secure the finals exam permit of Edgar. I was able to pay his tuition fee balance in full. Of course, that was because I borrowed money with interest like I told you yesterday, Mama. I'm just glad Angel's exam was moved to November, otherwise I really wouldn't know what to do. After Edgar's finals, I know I should be thinking about his enrollment for second semester and also Angel's permit. That I need to do while paying for the loan I got. I'm sorry, Mama. I really have no other option at this time other than to borrow money. I will try my best to be prudent without really sacrificing the kids' welfare, Mama.

Right now, I really wish I can hold your hand and embrace you. I really need you by my side, Mama. I am trying to be strong, but I know things will be easy if you were only here with me. I miss you, Mama. I need you.

I love you.

Daddy

Dear Mama,

I'm sorry, I had to resort to borrowing money with interest again. I really have no other option this time, Mama. I have no one to turn to and Edgar's final examintation will be next week. I only have until tomorrow to pay for his balance in tuition fees. I hope this will not start another trend for me, Mama. I honestly wish that this is just a one-time deal and I won't have to resort to borrowing again to cover up loans. I promise Mama, I will not do it unless there is still something I can do.

I'm really sorry, Mama.


Daddy
