Chapter 128
"We're going to drink as well?"
Loki asked, sitting down beside Sif na naka-pajama na rin katulad niya.
They're currently sitting on a pillow placed on the ground, waiting for the adults to arrive at the room Mycroft prepared for their drinking session.
"Of course not." Sif looked at him as if he was crazy. "We're still minors. They would not let us drink."
"Huh? Really?" Loki felt disappointed.
"You drink in your past life?"
"Occasionally." Loki replied. "Nakaka-miss din palang uminom. I want to try, kahit sip lang."
Sif scoffed. "They won't let you, trust me. Pero... I'm curious. How is your alcohol tolerance?"
"Pretty high." Loki bragged, giving a proud smirk. "Mahirap akong lasingin."
She was about to say something when the door opened and some of the adults they were with earlier walked inside.
Nang makompleto sila, wala na si Viscount Lestrange dahil umuwi na ito sa pamilya niya, nagsimula na sila sa inuman. Nabigyan lamang ng hot chocolate at juice ang binata at dalaga.
"You drink?" Tanong ni Iris kay Romeo na nakaupo sa tabi niya habang si Iris ay nakaupo sa tabi ni Loki na pinag-gitnaan nila ni Sif.
"Sometimes po." Romeo answered, putting ice cubes on his glass.
Loki looked at him, curious. "How high is your tolerance in alcohol, then?"
Romeo looked up, thinking, before he answered the prince.
"Not sure, Your Imperial Highness. Hindi naman kasi ako umiinom hanggang sa tuluyan akong malasing. I never even tried being tipsy."
"Wow, that's some self-control you have, kid." Manghang sabi ni Albert.
He, then, kicked Sherlock's leg to get his attention. "Magpaturo ka sa bata."
"Gago." Tinaasan lang siya ni Sherlock ng gitnang daliri.
"Naglalagay pa lang tayo ng ice, siya nagsisimula na." Tawa ni Moriarty, watching Sherlock finished his glass of liquor.
"May isang araw ba na hindi ka uminom ng alak, ha, Sherlock?" Pang-uusisa ni Kana sa kaniya, resting her upper body on her husband who happily welcomed her on his arms.
Sherlock glanced at her. "Chismosa ka rin, 'no?" Pagsusungit pa niya.
"Your landlady told me you go to sleep through drinking. That's unhealthy, Sherly." Biglang singit ng kapatid niya.
The younger brother immediately glared at him.
"Ikaw ba yung nagpapadala ng mga mamahaling gamit at mga pagkain sa matandang 'yon kaya siya nagre-report sa 'yo?"
"I also pay her for some information." His brother shrugged.
"Mamatay ka na, gago." Galit na sagot ni Sherlock sa kaniya.
"Bastos ng bunganga." Albert laughed. "Saka, Sherlock, don't be like that. Maraming iiyak na babae kapag namatay ang poging Emperor natin."
"Pake ko kung maraming umiyak? Magpapa-fiesta pa ko kung nangyari 'yon."
"May pera ka?" Kana teased, making everyone laugh, except for the victim, of course, Sherlock himself, and also Iris who remained quiet.
Pinanlakihan ito ng mata ni Sherlock before looking at Moriarty.
"Hindi ko gusto tabas ng dila ng asawa mo, Art."
"Isn't she the sweetest?"
Moriarty doesn't understand Sherlock's point. He's too smitten for his wife to even look at her in a bad light, dahilan kung bakit napamura si Sherlock na tinawanan lang nila.
