My Familiar Mistakes novel Chapter 3

Chapter # 3: The Burden She Feels (English Translated)

[Veera's P.O.V]

It has been three days since Vita almost disappeared due to my negligence.

It was morning when I saw mama come home.

She was up again 'till morning because of her work. She is not taking good care of herself already. She could hardly sleep and eat because of the two of us.

Life itself was so beautiful and peaceful in the eyes of my sister Vita.

"How was Vita? What time will you pick her up at their school sis?" EunYeo asked me as she combed her hair and watched her reflection on the mirror in the school restroom.

We had been dismissed at school already and ready to go home and this Monday ... I do not want to happened again what happen last Friday. Not again. So I decided that I would just take Vita with me into LyeSeo's house.

Maybe they will absolutely understand my reasons.

"How did Vita end up near our school? Then you said Adam the Mama's boy saw her? How come? I really can't absorb your story sissss."

EunSeo over-reacted said with such actions as we walk towards her car.

"I don't know. I just saw them under the slide and Vita was crying. I even thought that there were perverted things that Adam did to Vita tho I restrained myself to be mad because I know Vita very much when she is hurt. She will leave Adam there alone for her to be able to escape. " I said and adjusted my seat in the passenger's seat in EunYeo's car.

"Now you plan to go to LyeSeo's house? Take Vita while you teach? Aren't you worried that Mr. and Mrs. Park might think that ... you know already..." said EunYeo anxiously

"I thought about that too and yeah I'm a little worried because the twins might not be comfortable when Vita is there. Only today that the twins will know that I have a sister with special disabilities. All they know is that I have a tender and loving sister .. . " I said sadly while looking out the window which was gradually getting wet by the big raindrops.

"All right Sis. You can get Vita." EunYeo said when she parked in the parking lot next to Vita's school.

'Isn't he the Firstborn of Eugenio Siblings? Pity. Maybe it was actually true that their mother's mother cursed their father. That when her daughter chooses him to be her husband, her daughter and her grandchildren will pay for the hardships of life. '

Just before I entered Vita's school I wore my shades and acted as if I'm deaf to any comments or gossip I could hear from parents inside this school.

'I heard she's privately working with a family. Supposedly a tutor but she is targeting the head of the family. '

Even though my legs are shaking because of what I hear them say about me, neither one of it is true.

I still forced myself to stand up straight with my chin up while I walk.

I heard, Vita is said to be her daughter in the sexual assault that she experience in her Dad. It was said that her mother was just hiding the truth. '

'Last night I saw their mother. Shortly after work at the Chicken Restaurant on the subway he headed straight for a red car. Then a handsome young man talked to Mrs. Eugenio of 20,000 Won. '

'Is it true?'

‘Is she really going to sell her own daughter? That mother of them was useless. Nauseating indeed. '

Even though the whispers that I hear around me are heartbreaking, I still trying to calm myself down.

"Hey babeeee. How was your day today?"

I was startled by my sudden companion whom secretly supported me because I almost fell due to my tremor.

"A-adam ..." I stammered to him.

"What did Tita Veena gave you? I asked her last night to buy anything that you like. I told her that we had a big fight yesterday and I'm ashamed to face you that night. I'm really sorry baby." Said by him then I felt that he was secretly placing some paper in the pocket of my uniform.

"Why are you doing this?" I told him and pushed him a little.

"Hmp. Don't be mad at me already, baby. Pleasee." while pouting he said.

'He was the man in the red car last night.'

'She? Is he Vera's boyfriend? '

'Poor young man. She will even be affected by that young lady's burden. '

"Tu-yha ah-amm" 'Kuya Adam.'

It was just in time, Vita went outside their classroom as the whispers stopped.

'You really are gossips. Let's go. You all have different speculations ee, that you all are not even sure if there were truths about your speculations. '

Vita's friend's mother's words did not escape in what I have heard.

Really?

I don't know if this mother of Vita's friend treated us properly. I do not understand if she is kind to us because she want us to trust her, so that she could tell gossips about us with the others or he is really kind because we are also kind to her son and her herself.

It's so hard to trust. Scary.

We left Vita's school while Adam was talking.

"Where do you plan to take Vita today?" He questioned.

"In the house of the child I teach." I answer sparingly.

"The next time you go to Vita's school, call me." He said.

"That will never happen again." Annoyed I said then got in EunYeo's car.

"What did I just saw, young lady ????" Shocked she said.

"I don't know either. He just suddenly appeared like a mushroom." I said and closed my eyes and then leaned my head against the window.

"Hi Vitaaa. How are you baby? Did you have fun at school today?" EunYeo asked Vita with a smile as she played in the back seat of the car.

"Oh-pm. Tu-yha Ah-am whe-mpt" 'Opo. Kuya Adam went. '

She said as she played with her toys.

EunYeo and I looked at each other.

"Adam bribed him." I said with a annoyed tone.

"Anyways. It's good that you weren't late for class this morning? Sir seems determined to drop you. You had a good situation at school earlier ..., so I hope Sis that you are all fine. :))) " She simply patted my shoulder.

"Thank you Yeo huh? You are always here for me. I hope that even if my life changes differently, you are still my best friend." I said and hugged her.

"Hey! Hahahha. You know you can't hug and up a drama right now. Right? I'm driving young lady" She said while laughing because she was shocked by my hug.

"I'm sorry. My eyes are always really teary, because you always sympathize with me when I feel sad or lonely." I said and gave her a kiss on the cheek.

“OmO OmO Did you just see how Pongpong smile? OmO Did I actually saw his teeth appearing in those smile? Ackk Unnie Unniee. What to do? What to do? He’s actually smiling while playing with Vitaaaa! ” LyeSeo energetically whisper to my ears.

She doesn’t want her brother to notice her gossiping about how the way LyePong smiles with Vita.

“OmO OmO What to do? Pong really love her Acckkk Unnie Veera I think this is the sign that the world will enddd. ” She whispered to me excitedly but a little anxious.

“But if this is the end of the world, I want to exchange places with Vita! I want to be your sister in the next creation of the world OMG. ” She said enthusiastically while jumping in so much joy.

“Yes my SeoSeo. It was also my first time seeing him smile like that. The joy in his eyes is really priceless indeed. ” I said and pat her head.

It seems that I have the advantage and disadvantage of being with Vita, here in the twins' house. I could not teach because they saw Vita as their new playmate.

They were overjoyed. I thought at first they would not like Vita because of her disabilities. But I am wrong, because they accepted Vita as a normal child that they can play with.

They were raised well. Growing up smart, kind and broad-minded in things that are strange to a normal child.

“Veeraaaaa! You didn't even tell us that you have a sisterrr that is very very cute and intelligent! Lookkkk at her! She's so active and friendlyyyy. It feels like she is more my sister than LyeSeo. We have the same likes and she understands what I likeee. And Hey Veera! She's much much beautiful than youuuu. She has a sexy mind. Full of ideas, you didn't even seem to recognizeddd. ” LyePong said, as if he had known Vita since childhood.

Funny how LyePong remarked on how good and smart my sister was. And how he also makes his sarcastic word, when it comes to me and his twin. The usual LyePong is indeed like that?.

“Yes! You're such a meanie PongPong. You hate us that much? ” LyeSeo laughs at her twin comment.

Kids are kids anyway. Even though they are normal kids and with special needs, they also need to be sociable and learn in their own ways. It is only in the nature and nurture of the child, in how they respond to things.

LyeSeo also joined in the fun of the two, so I was left here sitting near their wooden table.

It's nice to be a child, you have no problem thinking about what toys you should be releasing next, or what cartoons you will watch next on TV, or what games you and your friends can play. The pleasure of being a child, is the thought that only the knee, can give pain to your whole body because there is a small wound.

Unlike when you get older. There comes the rejection in any aspects, in that love, in academics, in work and even in society. When you grow old, you will be emotionally strained by those problems. You will be beaten not only emotionally but also mentally and physically. But life is like that, it will get harder and harder. You can't just give up and you can't pause just because it's getting harder.

But thinking of the problems that you have? How can you solve it one by one in a speedy manner? It is very difficult to think and also very difficult to do.

I have no choice but to open my bag. The amount of paper I saw.

There are brochures at various colleges.
