Switched Worlds

"Excuse me miss, who are you?"

"I'm Alex." sagot ko sa tanong niya at saka gumalaw.

I grabbed his jaw and pushed the guy to the wall and it made a loud thud. Kinuha ko mula sa kaniya ang libro at saka isinampal sa pagmumukha niyang makapal.

Kilala ko ito eh!

He used to blackmail Sandra and made fun of other people's misery. Kilalang kilala ang lalaking ito bilang suki sa bahay aliwan.

"Alex!" Carmella shrieked kaya napalingon ako sa kaniya. Napairap na naman ako noong makitang parang naawa ito sa lalaki. Bakit ba katulad ito ni Sandra?

Masiyadong mabait. Madaling gamitin.

Nakita ko ang panlalaki ng mga mata ng kasamahan ko at naramdaman ko na lang na nasa tapat na ng puso ko ang dulo ng isang punyal.

I tightened my grip on his hand at kita ang panginginig nito. Siya nanginginig sa takot, ako sa galit.

Someone grabbed me from behind while Clyde and Inigo subdued the man.

He turned me around and scanned me while I was just standing there. My mind void of any thoughts.

It was just blank and black.

Napayuko na lang ako ng ulo at saka sumandal sa kaniya. I breathed a couple of times trying to calm myself.

I'm a very vengeful person. Know that if you did something untoward, I will be serving you your karma.

If there is a person I hate most excluding Raven, it's this man.

He took advantage of Sandra's weakness. I saw it all but I couldn't do anything to save her from this demon. It makes my blood boil.

"Bitawan niyo ako! Hindi niyo ba ako kilala? Ako ang tagapagmana ng pamilya Ricor! Kapag narinig ito ng aking ama ay tiyak na parurusahan niya kayo! Ipakukulong ko kayo! Bitawan mo ako!"

At this point, alam kong baka hindi ko na makontrol ang sarili ko kapag hinarap ko ang lalaki. I don't want red in my vision right now.

"Stop me." I whispered.

My anger is swallowing me.

I heard more of his rants as he was dragged towards the dungeon. What he just did is punishable by law.

Attempted murder.

He can ask for proper judgement but he would still end up in the dungeon. Good for him.

But what he did then is judgment I must bestow upon him.

"Sandra! Pakawalan mo ako o sasabihin ko ang lahat ng nangyari sa atin!" He shouted in rage which made the building be coated in silence as I felt eyes on me.

"Never mention her name! Your mouth is too filthy for that name." Madiin ang bawat salitang binigkas ko. My hands formed into fists, ready to smash his head on the wall.

I could feel the veins in my hands popping out of anger. I gritted my teeth and clenched my jaw as my fists started to get covered by my magic.

He's a people person, isolate him and he's easily tortured to death. Depressed and lonely he will become if I caged him in a space he will live alone.

Or I could wring his neck right here.

The warmth of the hands that enveloped mine dissolved my fantasy.

That's right Alexandra, calm down.

I breathed again to calm myself pero panira talaga ang lalaking sigaw pa rin nang sigaw.
