DEVIL'S WRATH 5: Welius Morgan (COMPLETED)

CHAPTER 38

"No! N-No, this is not t-true!"

Dinig kong sigaw ni Rain, hindi na ako makapagsalita pa, tanging hagulhol at paninikip ng dibdib ang nararamdaman ko.

I can't accept all of this; our wedding would be on the death anniversary of Dad after a year? No, I don't want to remember this day.

I feel weak, and we are all mourning inside the mourning room. He is covered with a white cloth, and no one has the courage to uncover it. This event is so painful, his loss is so painful. In my heart, he'll always be my Dad, forever and ever.

Nang maalala ko ang mga naganap na kaguluhan at nang mga panahong muli ko silang tinanggap sa buhay ko ay mas lalo akong mapahagulhol ng iyak, kaya pala tinulutan ng langit na ihatid niya ako, kaya pala inihabilin niya ako kay Welius kasi iiwan niya pala kami.

I can still remember those lines, 'I promise to protect the two of you, my Zanzeas...', hindi pala talaga siya nagbibiro, handa pala talaga siya mamatay maprotektahan lang kami.

Parang mawawalan ako ng malay sa sobrang paninikip ng dibdib ko, in just one snap, napasigaw ako dahil hindi ko na kaya.

"D-Dad! W-Wake up please, k-kailangan ka namin. K-kailangan mong makita a-ang apo mo, y-you said y-you want a grandchild right? Wake up please..."

"Wife, shh...w-wala na siya baby, it hurts but we need to accept this."
Sabi ni Welius habang yakap-yakap ako.

"No! H-He's not dead! Hindi p-puwede, no!"

Napapikit ako dahil sa tindi ng sakit na nararamdaman ko, napakapit ako sa tela na nakatakip sa kanya, kung paanong hindi nila kayang tingnan si dad na nakahandusay rito ay mas lalo na ako, hindi ko kayang tingnan siya na wala ng buhay, ang sakit-sakit.

"What the hell?! Who's this?"

Napatigil ako sa pag-iyak at mabilis na nagdilat ng mata, lahat kami ay nagulat at pinanlamigan ako bigla. Ang taong pinagluluksaan namin ay hindi si Dad, dahil sa tindi ng pagkapit ko sa nakatakip ay nahila ko pala ito.

Napaatras ako at muli kong narinig ang sunod-sunod na mura galing sa kanilang lahat, even Rain, narinig ko ang malutong na pagmura niya. Nanginginig ang mga kamay ko nang pahiran ko ang mga luha ko, it's senator Deeliz, siya pala ang pinagluluksaan namin dito at hindi si Dad. No, even though he's my biological father, he's the reason why we ended up crying here. He also ruined our wedding with Welius and shot Dad.

"Shit! Nasaan ang bangkay ni uncle?" Fritz asked. Welius quickly rushed out, followed by all of us. He immediately inquired with the staff outside.

"Hey, where's my father's corpse?"

"I'm sorry? What's the name of your father?"

"It's Ford Morgan. The doctor said he's dead on arrival, he's not inside."

"Okay, just wait a moment. I will call the staff station to find out where's the body of your father because I just arrived here."

My heart raced as he picked up the telephone; soon after, he put it down and looked at Welius.

"S-Sir, I'm sorry, but your father was on the recovery ward. He's not dead and he's in stable condition now—"

"What the hell are you talking about? The doctor said he's dead on arrival, and now you're telling me he's in stable condition? Tell me the truth!"
Kwenilyuhan siya ni Welius kaya natuod siya sa gulat.

"Hey, Welius, hey, relax." Uncle Fred restrained him. I gasped, my heart pounding even more with nervous. Is it true? He's not dead?

"I-I'm so s-sorry, sir, but are you sure he was referring to your father?"
