Path of Destruction (Editing and Updating)

Day 2: Path to Secretion

Agaran ang mga bodyguards na tumabi sa akin. Nairita ako sa ginagawa nilang paglapit ngunit balewala lang sa kanila ang matatalim kong tingin. What can I do? I'm not their boss, mom is. Mas lalo lang kumirot ang ulo ko dahil sa mga nakahilerang kasambahay ng mansyon.

I saw Levy and Lisanna waving at me, but I didn't return the gesture. Instead, I walked really fast and ignored them.

"Chesca—"

"I have jet-lag, I want to sleep."

"O-okay," mahinang usal ng kambal sa akin.

Dire-diretso lang ako sa bahay hanggang sa makaabot ng kwarto. Hindi na ako nag-abalang hanapin ang gamit ko dahil alam ko namang dala-dala iyon ng mga bodyguards ko.

I plopped down on my bed and went to sleep, not bothering to change clothes.

"Young Lady, it's me your butler. Your cousins are here, they want to talk to you."

I groaned as I kept my eyes shut. What time is it? Don't care. I still need to sleep. Yvo kept knocking on my door which irritated me. Inabot ko ang bedside table ko, sa ilalim niyon ay may maliit na red button na naka-install doon. Kapag pinindot ko ito ay magsasara ng tuluyan ang kwarto ko at walang sino man ang makakapasok.

Makakapasok lamang sila pagkatapos ng 8 hours.

I'll be locked inside but that's fine, marami naman akong pagkain dito sa kwarto. I pushed the button and all of my windows and the door of my room are now locked, sealed like a bullet.

"M-ms. Gonzales, you shouldn't pushed that button. Ms. Mira took all of your supplies awhile ago," napamulat ako sa sinabi niya.

Mas lalo lamang akong nainis. Why the fuck are they disturbing my sleep?! And how come Mira's here in the Philippines? Paano niya napapayag si Uncle Matthew na paalisin siya sa South Korea?

"It's alright Yvo, we taught her a lot of things and she's a smart girl. She always has something up her sleeve," rinig kong cold na sabi ni mommy kay Yvo.

She's here already? What the fucking time is it?

"Chesca, I will not tolerate that kind of attitude. Your cousins are here, why are you not talking to them?", halata ko ang inis sa kanyang kalmadong boses.

"Tolerate? Since when was the last time you taught me manners?", bulong ko which is I doubt if maririnig ni mommy.

"Chesca, I am commanding you to push the red button again and if you don't listen, I will call someone to break down your door," shit not my door.

I fucking have no choice now, my door is more precious than anything else in the world.

Wala na akong nagawa kundi ang pindutin muli ang red button. Hindi pa nga tapos sa pag-unlock ang mga windows ko ay pumasok na si mommy. I sat down and brushed my dishevelled hair. Inalis ko rin ang mga muta ko and stretched my arms.

"Your father and I decided that you will study in Magnolia South High—oh don't give me that angry look young lady, you have no say to these kinds of decisions whether you'll go or not—that school is capable of disciplining you and I will not let that opportunity slip away from my own two hands. Get ready and pack your things, you'll be leaving in less than an hour," and with that ay umalis na siya sa kwarto ko.

No need to fucking tell me woman, I already suspected that.

Sinundan ko lang ito ng tingin at sa paglabas niya ay nakita ko ang dalawang babaeng ngiting-ngiting nakatayo sa gilid ng kwarto ko. Sinamaan ko sila ng tingin at umiwas sa flying kiss na binato nila sakin.
