Luck, Love & Lust (Wanderlust Series#1)

Chapter 18

I got out of the taxi, I immediately went inside our house. Tinanong ko yung mga maids namin kung asan si mom and dad and unfortunately may business meeting pa daw sila.

I prepared for dinner, tonight is the night na kailangan na nilang malaman. My conscience will not make me sleep. I wanted to tell Tobi pero I'm sure his busy and ramdam ko din na maaring galit pa rin siya sakin sa lahat ng pinagagawa ko.

"Just call me pag dumating na sila, tell them that I prepared early for dinner. Si Kuya Theo ba dito magdidinner or sina Kuya Zach?"
"Si Sir Theo lang po ang kasama niyo mag dinner, Si Sir Zach po ay sa labas na daw po  magdinner kasama po ang fiancee".

"Okay, I guess hindi pa sila tapos with the wedding coordinators." I just rushed into my room, If I can't seek out Tobi, might as well contact Allison.

I called her, she immediately pick it up.
"Hi this is Allison, who's this?"

"Allison, this is Viv I need to tell you something".

"Ang kapal din naman ng mukha mo ano, pagkatapos mong saktan si Tobi ito ka ngayon. Mag mamakaawa ka ba sa kapatid ko para bumalik na ulit siya sayo.?"

Gusto kong magalit sa kanya, hindi naman niya alam ang buong pangyayari pero kung maka-asta siya parang ako yung may kasalanan.

"Allison, everything happened for a reason and kung ano man yun sa amin na lang. I called you because I'm telling everyone about this fucked up relationships. Pakisabi na lang kay Tobi ha, nakakahiya naman kasi sayo na ako pa ang aamin sa lahat ng mga kagaguhan natin sa ating mga kapatid di ba Allison?!"

I ended the call there bahala na siya, I am so fed up with this drama. Pagod na pagod na ako kakaisip kung tama pa ba itong pinag gagawa ko. I decided to lay down on bed and take a nap.

One of our maids, woke me up. "Miss Viv, andyan na po sa baba ang parents niyo and si Sir Theo inaantay na po kayo." I suddenly felt very nervous on what she said. Ano kaya sabihin ko na ba talaga. Paano kung magbago ang isip ko, hindi ko alam kung ano ang magiging reaksyon nila sa naging relasyon namin. Dad will definitely not like this set-up.

"Tell them I'm gonna get ready in a few." I fixed myself and immediately went downstairs, across our dining hall I saw them patiently waiting for me to arrive. I got seated in front of Theo.

"What took you so long sweetheart?" Mom asked. She looked worried. I took a deep breath and all of them were looking at me. I was so nervous, I almost I would pass out. But if I don't say it right now, I will really lose it.

"Mom, Dad I need to tell you something important". I think Theo hinted of what I wanted to say. His eyes intently look at me, like giving me a threat if I open my mouth.

"What is it? Is this about you living with Macey's family or is it about the Serrano boy?" I looked at Theo he was still looking at me directly, I was scared but this is the right thing to do.

"This is about Tobi, Theo and Me." I said. There I spilled it but Mom and Dad seemed confused. "So, what's the big deal with you three?" Theo cut off the conversation by saying, "We're just really close". Dad seemed uninterested. "Really, is that all what a waste of time."

"Dad, we're not just really close. Theo, Zach and I we're in a relationship before. We were having threesomes Dad. I was having sex with my stepbrothers there for you to understand!" I raised my voice, stood up and left the dinner table.

Mom was about to cry from what she heard but Dad stood up with angry eyes directly pointing at Theo. He got Theo's sleeve and punched him at the face. "Is that true?! You were fucking your own sister, goddamn you son of a bitch. I didn't raise you to be this way. I'll make sure there is hell to pay, you are not going to do that election anymore. " Mom immediately went to Theo's side comforting him.

"I only did that because I love her, we love her actually. So what, you're gonna just throw me out like that fine. " Mom was crying and hugging Theo. "Victorio, tama na. Maawa ka sa mga bata. Pwede naman gawan ng paraan to, mga anak pa rin natin sila."

Dad was done with Theo, he called Zach and telling him everything he heard. Hindi na sinabi ni Dad sa pamilya ni Macey dahil ayaw niyang masaktan ang babae. Dad wanted Zach to cut off the engagement pero inisip nila si Macey. My parents both saw how Macey changed Zach, Theo on the other hand will face his punishment.

"Theo you will be removed from the election candidacy, apologized to your sister and we'll be shipping you to military forces I'm sure my brother will be willing to take you. Para naman tumino ka, hindi porket stepsister mo yan pwede mo ng gawin ang kahit ano. Maybe she gave her consent pero putangina naman Theo di ka ba nag-iisip. "

Theo didn't say anything, he just walked out of the dining hall. Mom was angry at Dad. "Sana naman kinausap mo ng maayos, anak mo pa rin yun. Victorio mamaya na ako makikipag-usap sayo, kailangan ako ng anak ko." Mom followed Theo.

I just wanted to walk away from my family for awhile, "Don't act like your a victim Viv, since ginusto mo din naman. You will be immediately ship out to Texas after this. Bakit mo ngayon lang sinabi ito? Dahil nalilito ka na kung sinong gusto mo, yung Tobi ba o si Theo. Tama ba ako?"

I was scared but since it's out might as well face it. "Okay Dad, I admit I thought I was doing the right thing. I was having the time of my life before. Breaking your rules and gaining pleasure for my own good, I never felt so alive in my life."

Dad coming straight up at me, he slapped my right cheek. My head was swayed after that, I holding my right cheek, I can still feel his hand afterwards.

"This is just abuse, you know what I don't care whatever you say or do. Stay away from all of us. We're better without you." I walked away from him.

As I went upstairs, Theo's bedroom was just adjacent to mine. I heard Theo and Mom talking, his bedroom door was opened anyway.

"Theo, why didn't you tell me earlier. Bakit umabot pa sa ganito. You know your dad is overprotective of our image tapos malalaman niya na ganito mga anak niya, ano na lang sasabihin ng tao."

"Tangina niya mom, yun talaga pa ang uunahin niya. Yung sasabihin ng tao pa ang mas importante kesa sa relasyon niya samin. I don't care if we don't have his approval, I have never have regrets in doing that. Minahal ko naman si Viv and I still fucking love her!"

I cried when I heard what he said, I went inside my bedroom and lay on the bed crying myself to sleep.
