Twisted Reincarnation

55 (Sick)

"You think you're all that but you are just a mere model. The only thing you had going is your face and your facade." She said bitterly. I close my face powder and fish out my red lipstick. I apply it right in front of the mirror while I can still see her staring at every of my actions.

"I supposed your right. Who cares tho? Why are you so bothered?" I smack my lips and face her.

"I am not bothered. For all I care. You're just a dumb bitch." I smirk at her. She seems drunk. Otherwise, she won't act like this. She's always dignified and well spoken villainess but right now she's just a blabbering mess.

"Really? Seems like you are. I understand naman if you harbor envy. I totally understand." I said to annoy her even more. It's totally working because I can see her face turning red.

"You bitch! You think magtatagal kayo ni Shawn? No fucking way. He's mine! I'll do anything to make sure na mawala ka sa landas naming dalawa." She said with full of anger. Her teeth are gritting and she seems like she'll attack me.

"Oh come on. Are you acting like this because you can't have him? Hindi ka ba tinuturuan na masama ang mang-agaw? I think you should learn basic manners and self respect." She laugh and roll her eyes before pulling out her lipstick. She applied it the way I did before.

" No, my parents didn't teach me to be weak. They taught me to take what I want. They thought me not to lose to such inferior people like you. " I laugh at her words too. She seems like she's regaining some of her poise.

"Well, good luck! Do your worst." She look at me sharply but she smile sweetly afterwards which made me confuse.

"They'll never approve your relationship. Ilalayo mo lamang ang loob nya sa kanyang pamilya." She walk towards me and whisper in my ear.

"Tita Amellia is sick. Do you want Shawn to regret choosing you in her deathbed?" I stood frozen with what she said. Shawn's mom is sick? It is not written in the story. Why is she not using it to blackmail Shawn yet?

" What do you mean? Why won't she say anything then? " I asked her but she just laugh a little. Like I was funny.

" Well, who knows. You don't know what Tita Amellia and I are capable of. Just act dumb like you are. I'll do my best to have him so do your best to keep him." She smirk before she walk pass through me. I want to stop her but I couldn't. I don't know what to say and what to do. What if Shawn really leave me out of his mother's wishes.

I look myself in the mirror and assure myself that no such thing will happen. Shawn loves me. He will not discard me like that. He wouldn't, right? I heave a sigh and force a smile in front of the mirror. After a few minutes ay lumabas na din ako.

I was looking for Shawn but I couldn't find him. I saw a small commotion in the exit but the party is still alive. I look around for a few minutes bago ko pinuntahan ang exit. Maybe Shawn is there. I look around and I still couldn't find him. Paglingon ko ay nadoon and isa sa tita nya na pinakilala nya sa akin earlier. She seems like in panic. I politely approached her and ask.

"Excuse me po. Have you seen Shawn?" Nilingon nya ako at hinagod ang aking braso.

"She's with her mom. It's all too sudden biglang nag collapse si Amellia." I couldn't move. I almost stutter. Is this really happening?

"W-where? Which hospital did they go?" She shook her head and sigh.

"Hindi ko rin alam. Nagmamadali si Shawn, hindi nya na hinintay ang ambulansya. Sinugod nila nung babaeng nakagreen dress sa hospital si Amellia." I gulp hard and pinch myself. He's with Georgina. The situation requires it. Maybe he just allowed it because he's in a hurry and his mom like Georgina so much.

There's nothing to doubt. I shouldn't misinterpret this. I am not a selfish person who'll succumb to self pity gayong nasa masamang kalagayan ang kanyang ina.

"Thank you for informing me po. I'll contact Shawn and follow them." I politely bid them goodbye. I hurriedly hire a private cab because I don't have a car. Sa kotse ni Shawn kami sumakay papunta rito.

After a few minutes ay dumating na ang sasakyan at agad akong sumakay. Buti na lamang at nakashare ang location namin sa isa't isa. I want to call Shawn but I don't wanna distract him. He's still driving according to the map. I just left a text saying 'Baby, I heard what happened. Pupuntahan kita.'

I toughen myself and show the direction to the driver. After 15 minutes ay nakarating na din ako sa kinaroroonan nila. I hurriedly paid the chauffeur and went out.

It's a private hospital. I put a mask on dahil baka makaattract pa ako ng unwanted attention. Agad akong pumasok at nagtanong sa front desk ngunit di nila ibinigay sa akin ang room number dahil hindi ako durect relative. They told me to ask them directly instead. I am very frustrated. I tried calling Shawn pero hindi sya nasagot.

My brows furrowed when I recieve a text message. '15th floor. VVIP room 1'. The sender is unknown. I was very skeptical but since I'm really desperate ay hindi ko na iyon pinuna. Agad akong sumakay sa elevator. I am praying the whole time. Wishing that everything is fine. Pagkabukas ng elevator ay agad akong lumabas at hinanap sila.

Natigilan ako ng makarinig ng pagtatalo.

"Did you really have to be so harsh on your mother?" A cold, menacing voice said. I peep at them and I saw Shawn in front of an old guy who's probably around 50'. They kinda look alike so I guess it's his dad.

"I didn't know. She didn't tell me na she have a heart complication." Shawn said in a sullen voice. Natutop ko ang aking palad.

"Well, now that you know don't disobey your mother anymore. Do what she says before you regret everything." He said with finality. Like it's a command that you can't disobey.
