N H A Z E – D E C A R P I O
"How is your brother? I've heard from your sister na naayon na sa plano niya ang mga nangyayari?"
From the lifeless person bathing in his own blood, I pulled a handkerchief and wiped the blood stain in my hands. I didn't look at my father but I felt his presence. The room was filled with puffs of smoke from the cigarette in his mouth.
"'Yon rin ang narinig ko. Nasa kamay na niya ang kontrol sa lahat ng mga patibong. Cevor is smart, dad. He has his ways." I bitterly smiled at the thought.
Kind people are really a badass when fired. They're fucking scary. I know too well. I am the brother of the most protected person in our organization and I know all too well how he can survive without his security. I saw him dodge a bullet, might as well survived from a plane crush.
"Nhaze, bantayan mo ang kapatid mo. Alam ko, sa likod ng maskarang nagtatago sa pagkatao niya, nandoon pa rin ang dugo ng isang Montero. Huwag mong maging mahina ang kapatid mo."
Montero. Tsk. Cevor was raised from a family where perfect can be paired next to their portrait. Masiyadong safe. Masiyadong na-ilayo siya sa katotohanan. The fucking truth about our dangerous world.
"Is this even worth it, dad? If things went haywire, are we really prepared to lose him again?" Ang nang-uuyam kong tanong sa taong kinikilala kong ama sa mga nagdaang taon na nabuhay ako. He's not biologically my father but with all the efforts and pain he inflected at us —Gwen, I can say that we were at least loved and sheltered sa mga taong nagnais na patayin kami.
Tiningnan niya ako. His eyes were identical to Cevor's, it held so much danger in it. Iniwas ko ang tingin sa mga tingin niya at nagsindi ng sigarilyo. Damn this blood, it's too pungent. I need a smoke.
"Binibigay ko lang ang gusto ng kapatid mo. I'll support him. We should. After all, it will be a show." I can't help but to glare at his words. A fucking show huh?
"Dad..."
"Nah. Wag kang mag-alala Nhaze. Of course hindi lang 'yon. Gusto ko rin makita kung handa na ba si Cymon."
"Cevor, dad. Matagal na niyang pinatay ang dati niyang pangalan." Paniguradong malilintikan ka kapag siya mismo ang nakarinig sa dati niyang pangalan.
"Your brother... Cevor. He's the most special to me, I know for you and your sister too. He changed me and ang mga madidilim kong pananaw sa mundo. I can't fathom the idea na mawawala kayo sa'kin. Nyeta niyan. Wala na akong tagapagamana kung magkataon."
Hindi ko mapigilan ang mailing sa mga tinuran niya. Damn, the man sitting confidently in front of me is crazy. A knock aired the silence from the both of us and two of our trustee went on cleaning the pool of bloody mess.
"Masiyado ng maraming masamang nangyari sa kapatid mo, Nhaze." I raised my attention to dad when he coldly broke the atmosphere.
"Protektahan mo siya at ang kapatid mong babae. Pagdating ng panahon ay kayo ang kukuha at magmamana ng lahat ng mga pinaghirapan ko. It may came illegally, pero dito ako nabuhay at nabuo ang pamilya ko. Gusto kong tandaan ninyo, papatay at papatay ako para sa mga anak ko."
I smirked at what he said. Behind the infamous vigilant killer persona, there's a man who will do anything for this organization and his family.
"What about the Rusciana's?" Ang panimula ko. I saw how his emotions change.
I know why.
"Nakakapanibago lang na ang tahimik nila. May inutusan na akong magmanman at lahat sila ay hindi na nakauwing buhay. They are making their territory stronger. They are readying themselves for war."
