Worship Me With Your Lips

Chapter Two: Never Been

Chapter Two: Never Been

"I will murder you."

If Cerine wasn't holding me back then there would have been a real murder here at this very moment.

Alam ko na okay ang mga magulang na'min at kalmado na si Cerine pero ako yung hindi kalmado, sa palagay ba niya na kakalma ako?

I'm a dragon, I'm a motherfucking dragon and I'm about to murder this stupid fucking playboy.

"A-Ate... tama na." awa ni Geneve sa tabi ni Silas habang nasa likod naman niya si Dominic na galit din pero pinipigilan lang niya ang sarili niya.

Sorry but I don't do calming down or holding back.

I respect the person who invented that but I cannot respect Silas Nakamoto after what he'd done.

"I am so fucking done with you and your games, Nakamoto. Dinamay mo pa ang kapatid ko!"

'Di siya sumagot, blanko lang ang ekspresyon ng mukha niya na nakatitig sa'kin.

He knew what he's done, he knows how bad it could have been for Geneva so he's taking it, he's accepting all the anger and punches I will give him.

I hope he knows that I won't hold back.

"Wala ka bang sasabihin ha? O gusto mo na sapak muna? HA?" taas boses kong sigaw sa kanya.

"Mali ang ginawa ko, Odelette. Alam ko. I'm sorry and I'll always be sorry for what I have done to—"

'Di ko siya pinatapos and went for the gold--I hit him as hard as I could.

Laglag panga ni Geneva sa ginawa ko at tinulungan agad na itayo si Silas pagkatapos. Pulang-pula yung parte ng mukha niya na tinamaan ng kamao ko, that's when I knew that I should take boxing classes.

"Ate!"

"Shut the fuck up, Aster! You studied, right? Dapat alam ko yung common sense ng nangyari, that Villanueva could have killed you! And I don't give a fuck kung anong nangyari o kung ano man."

I am.

I am a dragon.

I am the worst, I am the one who can't handle her own damn temper but I always... always have a fucking reason why.

Dad doesn't get angry that often, naintindihan niya at pinipigilan niya lang ang galit niya at iyak lang ng iyak si mama.

But me?

I just knew that Silas expected this from me already.

"I'm sorry, Odelette. I am... I am sorry. I will forever be in debt to Geneva, to you... to your whole family."

Hinihingal ako sa galit.

Nawala yung lasing sa katawan ko sa nangyari kagabi, lasing pa rin ako pero at the same tuwid din ang pagiisip ko.

Cerine stopped me and knocked me out with two more glasses of whiskey, but now I'm here and I'm back.

Fully sober and angrier than ever.

"Kaibigan kita, tangina ka. But I don't want to see you for at least two weeks, idiot." irap ko sa kanya at kay Geneva tsaka ako naglakad sa kabilang direksyon papunta sa elevator.

I want to return back to the mansion already before I get another urge to punch him in his stupid ass face.

"Ka—"
