Rage Crown

Chapter 2

Rage puffed, standing still, shaking his head, one corner of his lips tugging up and hands on his hips.

"Come on, bro, dance. You've been curled up all day in front of your computer. Your body has already turned stiff as a pole!" Shouted Mirrow who was now chuckling, unable to hold the camera still.

Iniwan nito ang video games para lang i-record ang kagaguhan ng mga kapatid niya.

Rage flipped his middle finger to Mirrow before he pushed Pyrmont out of his way.

But they are all hard-headed bull of shit. Pyr didn't budge and he knew he will not escape unless he also dance.

"Tang'na ano naman ba tinira niyo?" Inis niyang saad habang hinuhubad ang t-shirt na suot.

"Mik-Mik," Pyr replied. "We coughed the sweetened powder and it accidentally made it to our brain and it's wreaking havoc with our sanity," he cracked up.

Tinapik ni Ruckus ang tiyan niya. "Sayaw na. Let's see if your horrible dance move improves."

Tinapon niya yung hinubad na t-shirt kay Riot na nasa kanila na ang atensyon habang nakangisi. Sinalo iyon ng kapatid at inilapag sa tabi nito.

"I know I'll end up being laughed at but fuck—" Rage cussed. "TAYO lang naman."

All his brothers nodded, grinning.

Then Rage started to dance and of course, his brothers started to guffaw. Mirrow who was filming can't hold the camera still.

"One minute! One minute!" Shouted Rosh.

Rage rolled his eyes as he tries to dance like how his other brothers does. But even he cringed at himself. He knew his body is stiff and dancing is really not his thing.

Damn it!

After one minute he was thankful. Fuck! That was torture!

"Done? Can I now have my peace?" he asked in full sarcasm as all his brothers laugh their fucking arse off.

"Damn, you look like a gorilla sitting on the toilet having diarrhea, son." Napalingon siya sa ina niya na nakangiwing nakatingin sa kanya. "You could have at least done better. A baby elephant sitting on his bum while grinding, perhaps."

Loud laughter echoed throughout the whole room.

Mariin siyang pumikit at hinilot ang noo. Tang'na sumasakit ang ulo niya sa mga kapatid niya dinagdagan pa ng ina nila. Pero dahil mahal niya ang mga ito ay ayos lang, sila lang naman ang nakakakita sa kahiya-hiya niyang sayaw.

"Mahal, I am really relieved that Rage did not pursue a career in dancing," mom added, looking at dad who was pushing a serving cart full of food. "No kids will ever want to be a dancer if that happens."

"Thanks, mom, I feel loved." Rage tsked and went to Rosh to give him a light punch in the shoulder. "Congrats bro."

"Thanks. Your dance was a cherry on my beautiful day," Rosh snickered.

"Tch." Rage could only reply.

Tumungo siya sa bar counter at kumuha ng beer. Hindi niya pinansin ang hindi maampat na tawa ng mga kapatid niya.

"How's Auri?" kuya Kreston asked out of the blue, still chuckling.

Kunot ang noo na nilingon niya ang nakatatandang kapatid. "Why ask me?"

Ngumisi ito. "Don't go around circles on me, Rage. You know what I'm talking about."

"Bro, come on, we know your head over heels with Prius's sister," Kronack butted in, sitting beside him.
