THE MONTEFALCOS

Chapter 60

3rd Person's Point of View

Hindi mapigilan ni Veronica ang mga luhang namumuo sa kanyang mata. She tried to hold it back pero mukhang hindi nito kayang kontrolin ang sarili ng makita ang kalagayan ng anak

Veronica heard Adam sighed "Uuwi muna ko. The kids have to know what happened to Akira" sambit niya as he kissed Veronica's forehead at umalis

When she heard the door closed, she slowly went closer on Akira's bed. Naupo siya sa upuan as she held Akira's left hand

"A-Alam kong hindi mo ko kayang patawarin. Pero sana, anak, mapatawad mo ko" she sobbed "I-I'm sorry, anak. I'm sorry. Please, gumising ka na. Please, Akira. Kailangan kita dito. Please, Akira" Veronica cried as she held her daughter's hand

She now realized what she did. She now realized what pain she brought towards her daughter, towards her family

She now realized what it felt like to be alone

She only have one goal in her mind

To make Rhea and Lucy pay

'Pinapangako ko sayo, anak. Hindi ako titigil sa paghahanap sa kanila. Pagbabayarin ko ang gumawa nito sayo. Nagkamali sila ng demonyong binangga' Veronica thought

Lumabas siya ng kwarto ni Akira. She called the company's private guards para bantayan ang kwarto ni Akira

Nang makarating ang limang naka itim na lalaki, nagbigay galang ang mga ito kay Veronica

"Ma'am, wag po kayong mag alala babantayan po namin ng maigi si Miss Akira" sambit ng isa

Hindi mababakas sa mukha ni Veronica ang mga luha na naglandas sa mukha niya kanina lang. She looks so powerful and dominant kaya lahat ay nangingilag sa kanya

"Good. Mamaya pa dadating ang Sir Adam niyo. Baka kasama rin ang mga anak namin. Kayo nang bahala"

"Ayokong palpak ang pagbabantay niyo sa anak ko, naiintindihan niyo?" may halong pagbabantang sambit ni Veronica

They nodded to Veronica. Isa sa mga kalalakihan ang nagbigay ng isang itim na bag at isang susi. Susi ng kotse ni Veronica

Kinuha ni Veronica ang mga gamit as she made her way out of the hospital

"WHAT?!" galit na sigaw ni Lucas sa harap ng kanyang ama

Lucas, who seems like the most nicest guy in the Montefalco household, looked dangerous in front of his brothers and sisters

"Papanong nacoma si Akira?!" sigaw ni Lucas "Your sister got kidnapped by Lucy with an alliance with Rhea" paliwanag ni Adam

"Rhea? Yung nanay ni Wynona?" tanong ni Xavier. She stayed calm kahit na unti unting umiinit ang ulo niya

Jacinth tried to stay calm by secretly clenching his right hand. He wanted to punch Zywon. He believed that is was his older brother's fault

"Kasalanan mo to eh" Lucas said as he glared to Zywon. Zywon looked at him "Kasalanan ko?" Zywon asked

Lucas looked like he wanted to kill Zywon. Kinakabahan si Aster sa mga susunod na mangyayari. Maddox wanted to stop his older brothers but what can he do? At his and Aster's age, their the most powerless and pathetic

Lucas took the kitchen knife in front of him habang dahan dahang lumalapit kay Zywon "Oo, kung hindi naman dahil sayo at sa kapatid mo, hindi mangyayari to kay Akira" sambit ni Lucas

"Wag mong isisi sa kin ang mga nangyari na!" sigaw ni Zywon "Kasalanan mo kung bakit nacoma si Akira!" sigaw ni Lucas as he tried to stab Zywon pero pinigilan siya ni Jacinth

Jacinth took the knife from Lucas ngunit kahit na kinuha niya ito ay hindi nila napigilan si Lucas na sugurin si Zywon

Lucas punched Zywon. He wanted to kill him for what he had done to his sister

Xavier and Jacinth took Lucas out "KAHIT KAILAN HINDI KA NAGING KAPATID NI AKIRA!" sigaw ni Lucas as he struggle to free his self out

"Tama na yan!" sigaw ni Adam "We all have a hard time lalong lalo na ang Mama niyo. So pull yourselves together and quit acting like children!" sigaw ni Adam as he walked out

Natigilan ang magkakapatid. Their Papa is right. Their all having a hard time

Maddox wanted to express his feelings without acting weak. He snickered "Look who's acting like children" he shooked his head

"Kung ako sa inyo, damayan niyo na lang sina Papa at Mama. If you think you have the most hard time pwes hindi. Sina Mama
ang naka-witness ng pangyayari at hindi kayo. Kapatid lang tayo, magulang sila"

"Let's go, Aster and stop crying like a baby" sambit ni Maddox. Aster wiped the tears from her face. Maddox resembles as Akira right now. Siya ang mas matigas ngayon kaysa sa mga kapatid niya

Aster remembered her Ate to Maddox kaya agad siyang sumunod dito

Nang makaalis sina Aster at Maddox, the four gave each other death glares
