Leviticus is happy and full of excitement to go home to their mansion. Not because he can finally go home but because he wants to let his parents know that he already likes a woman and wants to get married at the right time. He wants to introduce the woman who makes his heart beat fast to his parents. And he was eager to see Saint again. They haven't even been apart for a long time, but he misses Saint already.
"Where's mom and dad? " he asked with a smile to their shocked maid. Maybe because he disappeared for a long time and his parents received no news about his whereabouts
"N–Nasa kuwarto ho nila Senyorito."nauutal sa gulat nitong sagot sa kanya. Tumango siya at pumaitaas.
He knocked three times before opening the door to his parents' room. There, he saw his mother lying on the bed habang nakatagilid ng higa. Ang kanyang ama ay nasa likuran nito at marahang hinahaplos ang balikat ng kanyang ina.
"Mom, dad!" he happily calls them. The reason why the two immediately turned around. His mother quickly got off the bed and came close to him crying and hugged him tightly. He also hugged his mother for missing her.
"W-Where have you been son? I am worried about you. I thought. . . I thought something bad happened to you. Your friends said that you suddenly disappeared. They searched for you everywhere. But they didn't saw you. I'm happy that you're here now. " his mother cried as she gently caressed his cheek.
His face softened and he leaned forward a little and placed a kiss on his mother's forehead.
"Mom, I'm fine. Naligaw lang ako sa gubat. But I'm fine, in fact. I meet someone. She's so kind, pinatira niya ako sa tahanan niya for 1 week. " nakangiti niyang pagkukuwento.
Mukha naman itong nakahinga ng maluwag dahil maliit itong ngumiti.
"I'm glad that you're okay son. Salamat narin sa taong nagpatuloy sa'yo. "
He turned to his father when he spoke. "And why did you just go home now? You must go home immediately the next day! Me and your mom was so worried about you. We thought that something bad happened to you! that you're dead!"
"Ramon!" his mother loudly called his father's name to make him stop. But there was no emotion on his father's face.
He took a deep breath. "I'm sorry for making you guys worried. Gagawin ko naman talaga sana 'yun. Uuwi naman ako, pero naabutan ako ng bagyo. The rain was heavy and the wind was strong. So I decided to stayed there first until the storm stopped. " he explained in a calm voice.
His mother lightly caressed his arm so he turned to her and gave her a small smile.
"Well. Go to your room and get dressed.” pinasadahan nito ng tingin ang kanyang kabuuan. Ang mga mata nito'y puno ng pandidiri. " Because you look like a rag in your clothes. You are the son of a well-known billionaire and the only heir to all my properties. But you are wearing rags." his father said mockingly.
He gritted his teeth in anger. Mabuti nga pinahiram pa siya ng masusuot kesa wala.
"Ramon. Don't talk like that. You should thank the person who lent your son something to wear." his mother rebukingly said.
Instead of listening, he just looked at them coldly and left the room. He guessed his father would go to his office at the end of the hallway on this floor.
"Son, forgive your father. He's hot head right now. " his mother apologized to him.
Sometimes, he also wondered why his mother liked his father. His too cold and emotionless. The way his father talk is like you're being stabbed by his words. Powerful and sharp. He even doesn't care how other people feel. His mother was the opposite, she was too soft. She can't even speak ill to others. His mother is kind and helpful. She is also a good wife and mother.
So he couldn't help but wonder why his mother love his father that much?Maybe love is that blind. Or maybe his mother saw a good side of his father that he didn't see.
"It's okay mom. " was his only answer and said goodbye as he headed to his room to take a shower and get dressed.
In the evening, his father made him dressed formally because he said they had an important guest coming to join them for dinner. When he came down the guests were already in the dining room.
"Take a seat Leviticus. " his father said emotionlessly and gestured to the seat next to his mother. There were two familiar couple who were in front of them. Next to the old lady was a young woman who he guessed was the daughter of the old couple.
Malawak siya nitong nginitian na sinagutan niya lamang ng pagtango.
"Let's eat first before we start the conversation and our agenda tonight." his father said seriously that makes everyone agreed. Except to him who is clueless.
They were silent throughout the dinner. When they finished, their maid immediately collect the dishes.
"Menda! Bring us some hard liquor here. " his father ordered to their maid.
"Opo sir. " sagot nito at mabilis na ginawa ang pinag-uutos ng kanyang ama.
"Anong meron sa gabing ito dad? " he wondered. As if they have something important to discuss with the Berlin family.
"Good thing that you ask, Leviticus. What we are going to talk about your marriage with Samantha within this year. " his father announced.
It was like a bomb that exploded and made him deaf. He was speechless in shock.
"WHAT?! " He couldn't help raising his voice in shock at what his father said.
"You're kidding me dad. "Hindi makapaniwala niyang sabi.
Umigting ang panga ng kanyang ama at tinaliman siya ng tingin.
"Don't raise your voice at me, Leviticus! I'm your father! And I'm not kidding, you will marry Samantha whether you like it or not. " he said emphatically. It seems that no one can break his words.
Marahas siyang umiling at tumayo.
"No fucking way dad! I won't fucking marry her! I don't love her! " he said in a roaring voice and met his father's gaze.
His father stood up hit the table hard causing the three girls to jump in shock while the old man seemed to be happy to watch the father and son's argue.
"Never disobey me if you don't want me to undress you. Remember, Leviticus. Everything you have comes from me. So don't disobey me if you don't want me to take it all!" he said angrily.
He clenched his fist tightly. He felt his mother holding him but he didn't look at her. He feel dissapointment towards her because she didn't even stop his father.
"Then do it. " he said fearlessly and quickly turned to leave.
He heard his mother calling him but he left without a word. It seems like he made the wrong decision to go home. If only he had known that this would happen, he would not have left. He would not have left the woman he loved alone while she was asleep.
