Captured By The Sleeping Prince

Chapter 28

"Ano itong nalaman ko, Cloud? Is this true? You are stalking Caith?" seyusong tanong ni papa na ikinatigil at ikinakaba ko. Fvck! Who told him that?

"Uhmm.. A-actually--"

"So it's true? Just by the looks of your face, young man, it seems that you're guilty. So you're stalking your sister?" he said that boils my irritation.

Like what the fvck was that?! Sister?! That's the most awful and hateful word I've ever heard in my entire life. Caithness? My sister? Fvck no! She can never be my sister. She's fvckin' mine to own. She's my future wife!

"Nakikita mo ba ang mukha mo, Cloud? Para kang nakakain ng masama. Was there something wrong with my question?" Papa smirks. Now I know he's teasing me. Seems like he already knows my hots on her lovely daughter.

"Tss." I frowned.

"Now tell me, man to man, are you in love with your 'sister', my boy?" Now my blood is boiling.

"Stop it, pa! I don't fvckin' wanna hear that word again!" Nakakainis na si papa!

"And what's that, Cloud? I don't have any idea what you were pertaining to." He chuckles. Nagulo ko na lang ang buhok ko sa pang-aasar ni papa sa'kin.

"Fine, yeah! Fvckin' yeah, pa! I'm in love with her! Damn crazily in love!" There I admitted it. Iyon naman ang gustong marinig ni papa. "And please, stop calling her my sister," I added.

He turned serious while looking at me. Damn. I'm nervous.

"Then be the best for her, Cloud. She deserves the best."

I know.. I'm working on that.

"Yes, pa. And I'll be the best for her. Please, give me the right to love her." I bowed my head, showing my conviction.

"Alright," he said bago ako tinalikuran. I was in shock. I can't believe ganun lang kadali tumugon si papa. I was speechless for seconds at nakatitig lang ako kay papa. And when I finally absorbed his answer, I feel like I won one of my toughest battle in life.

"Yes!" Napatalon ako sa saya. I'm permitted! Kinabahan ako dun. I thought he was going to insist Caithness as my sister.

Simula ng araw na yun, naging vocal na ako kay papa sa nararamdaman ko kay Caithness. Even my jealousy towards her damn bestfriend kaya tuloy napagtatawanan ako ni papa.

Mas pinagbuti ko rin ang sarili ko. Academics, sports, extreme trainings, lahat ginalingan ko. I want to be deserving for Caithness. Papa is so proud of my achievements kaya botong-boto siya sa'kin.
