"Where do you think you're going?!"
Gulat ako hindi dahil sa baril na nakatutok sakin kundi dahil si River ang may hawak ng baril! Sa ilang buwan ko syang nakilala lagi lang syang tahimik at kalmado. Mas katanggap-tanggap pa kung si Ryleigh-- dahil may anger issues ang pinsan kong 'yon.
But River? Seeing him furiously mad is a first to me.
"You're supposed to be dead. Nung nasunog ang bahay n'yo. Kasama ka dapat sa namatay..."
"What the fuck are you saying River?"
Ngumisi s'ya. Nanindig ang balahibo ko sa uri ng pag-ngisi nya. "Well I guess my plan didn't work that time... Dapat mas kinalkula ko ang bilis ng pagkalat ng apoy para hindi mo nagawang makatakas. Pero okay lang, sisiguraduhin ko namang hindi ka makakaalis ng buhay sa islang 'to."
"I don't know why you're doing this. But I want you to know na kahit patayin mo ako ngayon hindi mapupunta ang mana at kompanya sayo River."
Akala ko-- mukhang saming magpipinsan ang bunso pa ang pinaka-ganid sa posisyon ng kulto.
He smirked. "I know,"
"Alam mo naman pala. Edi itigil mo na 'tong kabobohan mo!"
His eyes became darker. Putangina na-offend ata?!
"It's okay, I'm willing to kill them until it's just me... hanggang sa ako nalang ang natitirang tagapagmana." His eyes became sharp. "Sisimulan ko sayo."
Nanlaki ang mata ko nang may marealize. "You'll kill your own sister?! Alam mo River sa tingin ko gutom lang 'yan."
Mas lalo ata siyang nagalit kasi ngayon nanlilisik na ang mata nya.
"Everything will be solved with just one click. Matagal ka nang dapat patay kung hindi ka lang pinoprotektahan ng kasintahan mo! Matagal kana dapat nasabugan ng bomba."
He's the one sending me the blackmails? And wait those ticking bombs are from him?!
"Why..." I couldn't gather the words. "...why are you doing this River? May galit ka ba sa'kin? What did I do for you to do this terrible things!"
"It's your fault! Alam nating lahat dito na hindi ka nararapat sa posisyon! You don't even respect our grandpa!"
A sudden realization hit me.
"Wow, so huwarang apo ka na n'yan?!"
"Oh yeah?" Kinasa nya ang baril at tinutok ulit sakin. Sa mismong noo ko.
"Listen I can just disappear here so you'll have your precious position. Hindi kailangang umabot sa patayan, puchang ina naman."
"Nah, I want you dead. Makakahinga ako ng maluwag kapag hindi ka na humihinga."
Seryoso ba Lord?! Seryoso 'bang pinsan ko 'to?
"Trisha's been sad for months because of you. You stole her dreams."
Kumunot ang noo ko. Trisha? Sino 'yun?
Namilog ang mata ko nang maalala kung sino... "At kailan ko ninakaw ang pangarap nya?!"
"You stole my girlfriend's dream to be a famous writer."
"Ha?! E putangina nya pala e--"
"Ituloy mo hindi ako magdadalawang isip na kalabitin 'to."
