The Devil's Heartbeat

CHAPTER SEVEN

"Alam mo ba,kuya was so mad when I was about to smash you using my car."

I'm here inside my room WITH this CRAZY GIRL! Hindi ko alam kung bakit hiniklat n'ya ako papunta dito at hayaan ang mga matatanda kuno na mag-usap about the marriage between me and that guy. Dibale hindi naman nakalock ang door ng kwarto ko,kung sakaling mag-atim na naman s'ya na patayin ako madali akong makaka-alis.

She's really really crazy and pain in the ass.

I looked at her direction and here she is,just laying on my bed,feel the softness and smoothness of it,and me? I'm just sitting on my sofa near at the door para mabilis ako makatakas incase of emergency. "Of course,sino ba namang hindi magagalit if may babanggain kang tao."

Napa-upo s'ya habang nakasaklob sa kan'ya ang aking kumot. "No!"she pout. Nangunot naman ang aking noo. "The madness written on his face is not...is not...not tulad ng napapansin ko! It was different,but I don't care about my kuya. The real reason behind of why I didn't smash you because of the car that my kuya used."she said and looked at me with a wide smile.

Napakurap-kurap ako sa kan'yang sinabi. So it means,wala s'yang pakielam kahit na mabangga n'ya ang kan'yang kapatid?! Ang mas inalala n'ya ay iyong sasakyan na nasa likuran namin.

Damn this woman!

"Why?"nasabi ko na lamang.

Saglit s'yang nag-isip at ngumuso muli. "Because,that car is one of the legendary car around the world! Of course,as a car collector I don't want to crash that kind of car. It was Rolls Royce type of car,duh."

I sighed. She's right. The Rolls Royce type of car,sino ba namang siraulong babanggain ang ganoong kagandang sasakyan. I also wondering why the hell Asmodeus drove my brother's car,hindi ba dapat ang kapatid ko ang dapat aasahan kong lalabas ng sasakyan. But the unexpected happened, ang demuho ang nakita ko.

Bakit ang liit ng mundo ko? Napapalibutan ako ng mga abnoy.

"By the way,do you like my brother?"

Napatingin ako ng bigla sa kan'ya ng sabihin niya iyon ng diretsahan. Grabe namang kaprangkahan nito.

"W-what?!"

She blinked her eyes innocently and fixed her red glasses. "Because,as far as I know,if two people married they should be feel love and genuinely care for each other. They want each other for the rest of his or her life,so...do you like my brother?"

Napaawang ako ng bibig at napakurap. She's just fifteen years old,but the way how she talked parang kasing-edaran ko na. If she's not minor at kapatid ng demuho baka nakaltukan ko na 'to.

I sighed. "If you know arranged marriage, hindi mo na dapat tinatanong iyan."

She pout again at mas lalong binalot ang sarili,mata nalang tuloy ang kita sa kan'ya. Tinignan n'ya ako ng pagka-inosente na animo'y hindi gumagawa ng kabaliwan.

"Eh kaso 'diko alam."

Napatigil ako at napapikit saglit. Bakit ko ba kasama 'to? Pero may punto naman s'ya.

"Arranged marriage is,when two people arrange their marriage even though their feelings are not mutuals."

I said and looked at her direction. Kita ko ang panliliit ng kan'yang mga mata at animo'y nag-iisip. "I doubt that kuya isn't love you."

Napamaang ako sa kan'yang sinabi at sinubukang hindi matawa. She's really crazy. Ano bang alam n'ya. Sabagay she's just a minor,the youngest in the Belial Family,the crazy one.
