Chapter 32

FERISH

"Wow, you're still small!" Dmitra ecstatically greeted with annoying smile.

Sinamaan ko siya ng tingin at walang habas na tinalikuran na. Hanggang ngayon ay ang sama ng ugali niya. Nananahimik ang height ko pero pinapansin. Kainis. According to her, I'm her favorite relative. It's not as if may iba pa.

"Ang sama ng ugali mo. Layas." Pagpapaalis ko sa kan'ya para makauwi na. Naramdaman ko naman na sinusundan niya ako.

"I'm just kidding! Hey!" Sigaw niya at sinundan ako. Nakakainis pati ang boses niyang medyo maarte, pero may awtoridad sa bawat salita.

"Bakit ka ba nandito?"

"I heard from your mother that you're here. Gusto ko mag-visit, of course. I heard that the Organization has been looking for their beloved Sin."

I gritted my teeth at the mention of the Organization. Ayokong bumalik doon, at hindi nila ako mapipilit. I will decide on my own and I had enough of them, dictating me.

"Alam ko." Walang ganang sagot ko at nakipagtitigan sa kan'ya. Those ash grey eyes is annoying me. "Ano naman?"

She smiled playfully. "They need you. You need to keep the peace, Ferish. You know you have your responsibilities, so, go back." She insisted that made me scoff.

"It is out of your concern, Dmitra. Bakit hindi mo asikasuhin 'yang Organisasyon mo?" Turo ko sa kan'ya, pero umiling lang siya.

"Hush. I call them my family." Pagtatama niya.

Umismid ulit ako. "Family, yeah."

Dmitra is sick in the head, I think. I'm not kidding. She lost her mind when someone mercilessly slaughtered her family, so she gathered random people to fill the gap in her heart. Para lang may tawagin siyang pamilya niya, dahil alam niyang hindi na sila babalik.

"It is my concern, because my family is kinda getting wild, you know." Umakbay siya sa akin na parang close kami. "Azra is doing her job properly. While you are here, having a good time."

Walang ganang tumango ako. "Tapos?"

Tinulak ko siya at kinwelyuhan para maglapit ang mukha namin. Her aristocratic face screams nothing but beauty and authority. Those ash grey eyes reminds me of my mother. "That organization took everything away from me, Dmitra. Alam mo 'yan. I will live my life the way I wanted." Pagdidiin ko at tinulak siya palayo sa akin nang hindi siya nagrereklamo.

"The Commanders."

Natigil ako nang marinig ang binanggit niya. Nakahinto siya sa likuran ko at may maliit na ngiti sa mapulang mga labi. "If they cause any trouble, you will be the one responsible for it."

"Yes." Madiin na tugon ko at irita na tinignan siya. I can feel the anger painfully building inside me. "And, if one of your family happens to hurt any of them, don't expect a peace between us." I emphasized each word to let her know that we may be relatives but I will not hesitate to hurt her so-called family.

"Why are you so harsh with your only relative, hmm?" Malambing na tanong niya at hinawakan pa ako sa ulo, pero tinabig ko ang kamay niya. "I am not the enemy. I am reminding you who you are." She defended herself. She has that genuine sad smile as I mention her family.
