DEVIL'S WRATH 5: Welius Morgan (COMPLETED)

CHAPTER 8

"I locked the door because she's so stubborn. Gusto niyang umalis, ayaw niyang umamin kung saan siya pupunta. Ni hindi nga siya makalakad ng maayos kanina, I think she's hiding something again."

Napayuko ako dahil sa kabang nararamdaman ko. Nakita ko paano nangunot ang noo ni Dad at napalingon sa'kin.

"Zanzea, don't you ever dare to disobey me again. Hindi mo pa ako kilala kung paano ako magalit, do you understand me?"

Napalunok ako at napatango. Nang lingunin ko si kuya Welius nakatitig siya sa'kin at kaagad niya akong sinamaan ng tingin nang lumingon din si Dad sa kanya.

"Ikaw na ang kumausap sa babaeng 'yan Dad, sumasakit ang sentido ko sa kanya!"

I closed my eyes as the door slammed shut when he went out. I could only hear Dad's deep sigh.

"Zanzea stop being so stubborn, don't provoke your brother. Look, you two can't get along because you're disobeying his instructions. I don't want to be a strict parent to you but if you keep being defiant, I'll be forced to do so."

"I-I'm sorry, I won't do it again."
Sa wakas ay ginulo niya yung buhok ko na kadalasang ginagawa niya.

"Okay, now, let's go, you have to eat lunch. Wait, what is that on your legs?"
My eyes widened when I saw the white liquid on my legs. My face heated up and I was filled with intense anxiety. I immediately wiped it off with my hands. Nakita ko siyang napatingin sa unan na nasa sahig kaya mas lalo akong kinabahan.

"W-Wala 'to Dad, lotion lang 'to. Tara n-na po."
Nauutal kong sabi, napatango siya sa'kin at akmang pupulutin niya sana ang unan ngunit mabilis ko siyang pinigilan. No! Baka makita niyang mas maraming nakakalat na katas sa sahig.

"No Dad! A-Ako na, room ko 'to kaya ako dapat ang mag-ayos, sorry po."

"Oh sige, sumunod ka kaagad ha? Kailangan mong kumain."
Parang binunutan ako ng tinik nang lumabas siya ng silid ko. Napahawak ako sa pisngi ko na nag-iinit. Muntik na! Grabe yung kaba ko, parang aatakihin ako sa puso.

I walked out of the room and headed straight to the dining hall, my heart pounding when I saw him sticky and seemingly undressing, staring at me from the far end of the dining table. I averted my gaze as my whole face heated up.

"Take a seat." Dad said.

"Just a moment, I'll go wash my hands."
I immediately went to the kitchen and washed my hands, remembering that I wiped off the liquid on my legs with my hands earlier. But I was surprised when someone suddenly kissed my cheek.

Nang lingunin ko siya, hindi siya nakatingin sa'kin kundi sa kutsilyo na inabot niya. Nang lumipat siya sa kanan ko inabot niya yung manggang hinog ngunit hinalikan niya na naman ako sa kabilang pisngi.

"Anong ginagawa mo? Tumigil ka nga."
Hindi siya sumagot ngunit nakita ko siyang napangisi habang sina-slice yung mangga. Para namang hinalungkat ang tiyan ko nang makita ko ang pagngiti niya.

"Excuse me."
He said, making me take a step back too.

But I couldn't help but stare at him as he cornered me and handed something behind me. But why in this position? He looks like he was hugging me. And if Dad or the helpers here see us like this, they will think he's hugging me.

"Lius—"

I couldn't react as he silenced me with a kiss, nibbling on my lower lip. I was surprised when he engulfed my lips and quickly released them. He immediately stepped back from me, and I saw him holding a bowl, which he handed to me from behind.

My face heated up as he gave me a look and winked at me before leaving as if nothing happened. Napahawak ako sa dibdib ko dahil sa ginawa niya. God! He's driving me crazy. Pinakalma ko muna ang sarili ko bago lumabas ng kitchen dahil bigla nalang nanlambot ang mga tuhod ko. Ngunit pagdating ko ng dining natuod ako nang makita ko siyang sinalubong ng isang babae at hinalikan siya sa pisngi.
