Theseus

At first, my goal is to steal away the title that my brother's gonna have in the future.

It was already planned long time ago. When we're still a kid. I heard Lolo Zeus talking how efficient my brother would be in the future.

Matalino raw.

I could only scoff in disbelief.

I am not very convinced with that.

My brother is naturally born smart, yes, but he's very lazy. Hindi nararapat ilagay sa pinakamataas na posisyon sa kompanya. My Lolo's gonna be disappointed and might get sick if the company won't do well in Dio's hand.

That's why I thought of something. . .

I'm gonna take away his supposed fate. Because I believed that it's mine to begin with.

I am smart and very diligent.

I deserve the great position.

I made it clear to myself. I am very confident that I'll make it eventually. I am going to be the next CEO of all our Lolo's businesses.

It's just that, when my Lolo has learned about my anticipation, he laughed at me and say...

"You don't need to put a lot of effort on making yourself deserving of my title... Just get married and everything will be yours."

I was never nervous in my whole life planning to take away everything from my brother. Hindi alam kung bakit nakaramdam ako ng nerbiyos nang araw na iyon. I am quite sure that Lolo is just testing my caliber. Hindi ko lang alam kung bakit ang pagpapakasal pa ang ibinigay niyang tungkulin.

Tangina. It wasn't an easy task!

Where should I find a woman whom I can marry for convenience? Mayroon ba'ng papayag sa gano'n?

Women asks for love and care. I can't surely give that. Kasi hindi naman ako marunong sa bagay na iyan. Wala rin akong alam kung paano maramdaman iyon. What is that fucking thing? Love? It's just a word. A word that made people crazy. They took it seriously that's why they feel pain. The consequences when you got too serious about that thing.

Napangisi ako.

Just like my brother. Who is getting crazy about his girlfriend.

See? Iyon ba ang deserving maging tagapamahala sa mga negosyo ni Lolo?

All he do is to chase that girl. Give her what she wants and love her with all his heart.

But his girl. . .

"It's you that I like, Theseus!"

Gusto kong ngumiwi sa narinig. It's my brother's girl. But look at her, declaring her feelings for me. Hindi pa ata sapat sa kaniya ang pagmamahal na binibigay ng kapatid ko kaya gusto niya pang manghingi sa akin. But I surely can't give her that. She's a hypocrite. Kung magbibigay ako ng pagmamahal, doon nalang sa babaeng hindi tulad niya. Though, I still don't know the meaning of that word. . . and I don't plan to know either.

"You flirted with my girlfriend again, Seus!" atungal ng kapatid ko pag-uwi ko sa mansiyon ng Lolo.

He was gritting his teeth and so ready to throw his punches at me. Siguro kung wala ngayon dito si Lolo, baka tumalsik na ako sa pader. Masyado siyang pikon palagi.

"It's the other way around, Kuya Dio." sagot ko na hindi niya na pinansin. He walked out again.

Napailing-iling nalang ako.

"Mrs. Laveria just sent an invitation for her party tomorrow night. You can go and represent me. Vidia and I will go to Singapore to check on some businesses. . ." ani Lolo isang gabi.
