Apollo's POV
"APOLLO ALLISTAIR!! I SWEAR IF I DON'T SEE YOU DOWNSTAIRS IN 10 MINUTES, I WON'T HESITATE TO BURN YOUR GOD DAMN CAR!!".
Mom shouted from the kitchen.
DANG IT!
I growled as I open my eyes. Still feeling tired from the lack of sleep. I sat up and checked my phone.
4:30 AM?!
Who fuckin wakes up their child this early?! 7:45 pa klase ko!
Unwillingly , I wore my shirt and went straight to the bathroom to take a shower. After getting ready I went downstairs wearing my jeans, white shirt, and black hoodie, perfect outfit if you want to go unnoticed.
Sa stairs palang amoy ko na ang nilulutong breakfast ni mama, I know I shouldn't eat with them if I want to start my day with a good mood, pero I have no choice, I'm too hungry to give a damn. Parang asidong tinonaw nang alcohol kong ininom kagabi ang laman ng tiyan ko. I don't wanna go to school this hungry.
"Oh, Himala nakaligo ka na. Ayaw mo nang magpakaladkad papuntang skwela?"
Salubong na tanong ni mama nung pumasok ako sa kusina, I can't help but roll my eyes at that, anong tingin niya sa akin, bata? Besides I know what's inline for this, if I want to bring back all the luxuries I have , I need to behave, and finish college like they want me to, I know having a pact like this is stupid and unnecessary. It's fuckin 21st century already, wala na tayo sa panahon ng mga kastila! Pero kailangan kong sakyan ang trip nila, at pagkatapos nito, pag nakuha ko na ang mana ko at ang tiwala nila, lalayas na ako sa puntanginang bahay na to.
"Ano excited ka na sa school?" Mapangasar na tanong pa ni mama sakin habang nilalapag ang pagkain ko sa mesa.
"Ma!" I stopped her teasings threatingly and shoved the food into my mouth.
Wala pang isang segundo nailuwa ko na lahat agad 'to, I looked at my plate while mom's still busy cooking. Sunny side up, hotdog, and Fried rice....
Ayos... Doctor na doctor pero hindi alam na allergic ang anak niya sa bawang. I ignored the pain I felt in my chest, and looked for my epipen inside my bag.
Si mama busy paring nagluluto walang ka alam-alam. Siguro para yun sa pinakamamahal niyang bunsong anak at asawa na himalang na unahan ko sa pagkain.
I immediately strucked the epipen on my left arm once I got a hold of it, then continued eating like nothing happened, but now avoiding the fried rice.
After a while of lazily eating, I collected my used plates and washed it on the sink.
"Aalis na ako". Pagpapalam ko kay mama after washing the plates and drinking water.
She was about to kiss my cheeks when I avoided her and walked out of the kitchen.
"Anak". Malungkot na pagtawag pa niya sa akin, but I didn't look back. Buti nalang, because just as I exit the house I heard his husbands footsteps descending from the stairs.
Okay na yun, atleast iwas sa gulo.
I made my way to the garage to supposedly get my bigbike but I immediately stopped in my tracks when I realized what I was doing...
Wala na pala akong motor.
Kinonfiscate nang gago, akala niya naman galing sa kanya yun, putangina niya, Galing kay Papa yun! Pati yung kotse na niregalo ni papa sakin nung graduation ko sa highschool hindi pinatawad
Now I know why mom had to wake me up so early in the morning. Maglalakad pala ako.
I just shook my head in disappointment as I walk my way to the gate. It was just a few meters away from the house, wala pang guards na nakaduty dahil day off nila so I had to close the gate myself... And when I did, I hope I didn't..
