Celeste Adrianna




The distant sound of thunder, the sound of falling rain on top of the roof, and flashing lightning that brings color to my surroundings and makes me see the face of my sister standing in front of me horrifies me.

I can hear my parents' endless fight outside. I dove into the corner and covered my ears, and she sat beside me as well. Unlike me, she looks so calm and not bothered.

"Aren't you afraid?" - I asked and jolted when I heard a smashing sound.

Mommy...

Before I could get up, Celestine grabbed my arm.

"Stay here."

"No! Daddy might kill her!"

"Listen to me! Lumabas ka man o hindi, mag aaway at mag aaway pa din sila! Dapat nga sanay ka na e."

Hindi nya ako pinayagan lumabas hanggang sa bigla nalang nawala yung ingay sa labas ng kwarto. Marahil ay tapos na silang magkasakitan.

Palagi nalang ganito. Simula nung lumalaki kami ng kambal ko palagi nalang silang nag aaway. Ayaw na ayaw ni Dad na lumalabas kami ng mansion at kapag nagpumilit kami ay si mommy ang nalilintikan.

Pero sa tuwing pinapatulog kami ni mommy, palaging masasayang ala ala lamang yung kinukwento nya sa amin.

Hindi kami close ni Celestine kahit pa identical twin kami. She talks a lot, while I'm the quiet one. She looks so friendly, but behind her kind and approachable demeanor lies a demon you wouldn't want to see.

I once caught her hurting someone physically. Even though the person was full of blood and begging her to stop, she still continued while laughing like a devil from hell.

We're not a normal child. Iba ang takbo ng isip namin pareho kahit bata palang kami at alam iyon ni mommy.

Celestine likes being with our dad, from whom she inherited her impulsive side, while I love being with our mom because she's the kind one.

Ang mga tao sa mansion ay nag tatrabaho lamang. Labas sila sa usapin pampamilya kaya kahit naririnig ng mga katulong namin ang away ng parents namin ay hindi nila magawang makialam.

I feel so helpless, and our mom is my only hope. I admit I have my own demons, but I never let them rule me, unlike Celestine, who's letting her demons take over her sanity.

When my dad announced that he'd be naming his faceless successor, that's when mommy started instructing me to do something, and that was to win my father's favor and become his heiress. Mommy never taught me to be bad, but the thought of Celestine being the future owner of the Villareal Empire scares her.

Baliw na nga si Dad tapos baliw din yung papalit sa kanya kaya paano nalang daw yung buhay ng mga taong nasa kompanya? Kaya kahit labag sa loob ko na agawin ang dapat ay sa kanya, ginawa ko pa din dahil iyon yung una at huling hiling sa akin ni mommy. Na itama ko ang dapat itama, at protektahan ang buhay ng iba laban sa sarili kong kadugo.

**

"It's time to go, kids."- rinig namin na tawag ni mommy.

Nauna sa akin bumaba si Celestine. Hindi naman sya excited lumabas no? For the first time kasi pinayagan kami ni Dad na magpunta ng park pero may curfew pa din.
