TWO

Is it posible to kill myself, lie myself in the coffin, and rest for a lifetime? Because I'm too tired. Tired of doing things that I don't want. After doing it, I regret everything.

Ever since master adopted me when I'm at the age of ten. I was a street kid, fighting around, snatching money from others, frightening other kids. I was a very bad kid before and maybe forever.

He tought me how to fight to become a real man. He tought me how to be heartless. He tought me how to become a monster. Siya ang bumuhay ng halimaw sa pagkatao ko.

"How many?"

"Five."

"Do your job. Be careful not to recognize."

I bow to give respect. Nirerespeto ko siya hindi dahil sinabi niya. Because, he gave me clothes to wear, he gave me food to eat, he gave me knowledge and shelter to lived.

I'm thankfull about that. But sometimes, I'm hoping that he's not the one who helped me to survived. Because I'm not happy for what I'm doing.

Isang tao na lang ang hinihintay naming lumabas ng airport. Tiningnan ko ulit ang profile na hawak ko. Tober Manansalas, unang kita ko pa lang sa litrato niya nagdesisyon akong hindi siya isama sa grupo. He's weak, he's innocent. I think he could not fight for his life. So I crampled the paper ang throw it away.

"Master would be angry."

Tiningnan ko si Forth. Siya ang huling tao na tinorture ko limang taon na ang nakakalipas. Master told me to be heartless but when I saw him begging me to stopped, I saw the tears in his eyes. That time I saw myself ten years ago.

"I'll take responsibility."

"But Imperial, you will take half of my punishment as well. I know you, no! Don't do what were you thinking!"

"It's okay Forth. I'll bear the pain."

Bakas ang disgusto sa mukha niya. Pero hindi na muli siya nagsalita pa. Alam niyang hindi na magbabago pa ang isip ko. He manuever the car afterwards.

Forth and I are not friends. I told him I don't want to be friend by anyone. But he told me that no matter what happen, he will not leave me hanging alone.

I'm trying my best to ignore Tober when he enter to the room. Ang dami-daming lugar sa mundo bakit dito pa niya napiling manirahan. This place is like a house, if you will not open on the outside, you will be stock in the inside.

Pero hindi ko mapigilang hindi siya sungitan, pikunin o galitin dahil namamangha ako sa ekspresyon ng mukha niya. Nandiyang lalaki ang mga bilugan niyang mata, lolobo ang makinis niyang pisngi at lalaki ang butas ng ilong niya.

And I'm guilty when I dragged him to my mess. Hindi ko alam kung bakit ayaw kong bitawan ang mga kamay niya ng mga oras na 'yun. Ayaw kong mawala siya sa paningin ko. Kaya kahit hinang hina na ako sa mga natatamo kong hampas, sipa at bugbug sa katawan, pinanatili ko pa ding malakas para hindi nila siya saktan.

Nalaman ni Master ang ginawa ko. So he punished me to learn my lesson. Alam kong may inutusan na siyang tao para kunin si Tober. So I told Forth to be eyed by him. I don't know what am I doing this, but I feel like this is my responsibilty. He is my responsibility.

"Are you okay Imperial?"

"Ikaw kayang ibitin patiwarik at paghahampasin ng ilang beses."

"Alam ko. Nanggaling din ako diyan."

"Then don't ask."

Nakita ko siyang pumasok ng banyo. Ilang minuto lang ay lumabas ulit siya. Inalalayan niya akong maglakad papasok do'n. Hanggang sa maihiga ako sa bathtub.

Ilang araw na niyang ginagawa ang ganito sa'kin. Nasanay na din naman ako sa presensiya niya dahil matagal na kaming magkasama dito sa bahay.

"Three days ka nang absent. Kailangan mo din magreport kay Master kung hindi siya ang papasyal sa'yo dito."

"To hell with that."

"That's good to hear."

Kinabahan din naman ako sa sinabi niya. He's not kidding when Forth said that. Master will come to see me if I'm not doing his command. I'm fucking tired, I want to die.

But thinking about the people who needs me, people who care for me, people who were there no matter what and people who became part of my life.

"Hihilata ka lang ba diyan and your not going to school?"

I stilled. I'm hallucinating, aren't I? Masakit pa din kasi ang katawan ko. Maybe am I dreaming? Hindi naman siguro siya mag-aaksaya ng panahon para puntahan ako.

I turn around and I saw him. Standing infront of me. Nakataas pa ang isang kilay niya na para bang hindi niya gusto ang nakikita.

Pero ang nakakapagtaka lang, why my heart beating so fast? It's like it will explode in no time. I'm sweating bullets even the ac is on and my eyes can't take off of him

"He want's to talk to you Imperial."

Ahh okay. I'm not dreaming or hallucinating at all. He's in my house, in my room and infront of me smirking.

To be continue ...
