PAMANA

Our family doesn’t really have an Heirlooms, my mom came from a big family with farming as the traditional way of life. We own land in our province which was later on sold because my grandfather (half Spaniard) got sick. Soon each of them made their way into life and my mom got lucky,she met my dad. She started a new life in manila which she had a stable job. I’m her only daughter. She gave me everything that I wanted and I’m very thankful for that. As a child I already wore jewelries but I kept on losing them. 5 years ago my mom for the first time again, after so many years gave me a cross necklace. She told me to have it with me at all times and it will keep me safe. Reading this short story “mats” makes me want to pass on the necklace to my future child when the time is right.
