Wanted Perfect Father Novels & Stories

“Must be hard growing up without knowing who her daddy is. Sigurado ka bang bagay siya sa paaralang ito? I mean, it's not exactly… charity-friendly, if you know what I mean.” Samantha’s jaw clenched hard. Did this good for nothing woman even know who the father of her child was? Halata namang hindi, kaya pinili niyang huwag pansinin ang sinabi ni Reeva. She stood, glaring at Reeva who leaned in, her voice dripping with venom. “I mean, no offense. Pero ang mga bastardo, kadalasan nagiging katulad ng mga nanay nila. Lost, cheap and unwanted.”

“Not possible. My father stubbornly wants me to marry you or else my company will be endangered. I know how capable my own father is, so for the meantime I need to do as he wishes even if I completely disagree from this.” “I see…” Problema nga naman ng mayayaman, kakaiba talaga. Bakit ba kailangan pa nilang mandamay para lang matupad nila iyong pabor ng malapit sa kanila. His father will go to that length just to pacify his guilt if he didn’t do what my grandfather wants, huh… I stayed silent, trying to decide quietly inside my head. Pero kahit anong gawin ko isa lang ang desisyon na nabubuo sa utak ko ngayon—ayoko.

Masiglang dagdag nito. “But I don't want any man to come into our lives. I want to see my daddy. My real daddy. I'm curious about who he is. I want him to be the one who will love, care for, and protect us from anyone, just as any father would do for his family.”

He misses his father, he is longing for a father’s attention and love, yet he’s pride eat him. My son just needs time. Ana niya sa kanyang isipan. Kailangan lang nito ng kaunting oras at tiyaga para matibag ang pader na nakapalibot sa kanya. Hero will accept his father like how his twin sister accepts her father wholeheartedly with open arms.

A womb for an heir. That’s it. But I saw it in her eyes earlier—she wants more. And maybe, some sick part of me… wants her to want more. I clenched my jaw. Weakness, Damon. That’s how your father fell. A flash of my father’s face crosses my memory. Smiling one moment, then drunk, broken, and bankrupt the next. Nilamon ng emotions. Bumigay sa lambing ng babaeng iniwan din siya sa huli. All his brilliance reduced to dust because of one thing:

Sa buong Manuel family, si Lola lang ang pumili sa kanya. Umiyak si Daryl habang tumatakbo palayo: “Huhuhu, I don’t want that bad woman to be my mommy… I want Mommy Felisa … help me!”

Then he laughed. Mahina. Mapait. "My father?" Nawala ang tawa. "Now I'm your son?" Tahimik ang tunnel. ... "You watched me." Patuloy ni Kaizer. "You let Willow stand beside me." "You let me fight Caelan." "You let me spread Genesis." "You watched every mistake I made..." "And every time it benefited you..." "You let me keep going." Tumigas ang mukha ni Kassian. "I gave you opportunities."

“Pero hindi si Anton ang klase ng lalaking kaya kong pagkatiwalaan ng buong buhay ko.” Biglang natahimik si Fretchel. Hindi niya agad alam kung ano ang isasagot. Sa totoo lang, kahit gusto niyang kampihan ang anak niya, wala rin siyang mahanap na matinong depensa para rito. Hindi naman mali si Carmelle. Nagpatuloy ito sa kalmadong boses. “I’m not asking for blind devotion,” dagdag niya. “Hindi ko naman hinihingi na sa akin lang umiikot ang mundo niya. But at the very least, he should know how to respect me.”

Hindi naman mahalaga sa akin 'yun. "Just that, I want to tell you that despite what your Father did, I can assure you that all he wants is the best for you." He always wants the best for me? It's like saying I need to be the perfect daughter para maabot ang standards ni Daddy. Pagkatapos nung sinabi niya ay isa na namang mahabang katahimikan, pinadpad kami ng aming mga paa sa harap ng kotse niya. Andun sa backseat si Laine na natutulog at katabi si Thea, mukhang napagod ngayong araw.

I glanced at his father that looked so pissed off of him yet cannot do anything for his son’s ‘amazing’ traits. I know Trace and his father has a kind of feud in their family but I didn’t get it why Trace kept on bullshiting his father over petty things. Like for today, wala naman dapat pagtalunan masyado tungkol sa issue ng kasal. If ayaw ni Trace ay ayaw ko rin… lalo na ngayon na pakiramdam ko ay parang pinamimigay na ako ni mommy, na parang wala na siyang pakialam kahit mapahamak pa ako… “And I said no…” I said in my silent tone as I was totally sad and burned out of my situation. Like I wonder why my fate is to be with people who don’t care about me.
