"And what the heck are you even doing here sa pamamahay ko??"

Mom immediately wanted to dismiss me as she saw me standing in front of her. May lakas pa siya ng loob na pagtaasan ako ng boses gayong hindi naman sa kanyang pag-aari ito.

"Correction mom, pamamahay ko." I feel like it's already nonsense kung igigiit ko pa ito sa kanya when I have all the papers to justify my ownership on this house.

Behind me is Mr. Avelino Montenegro, holding all the folders and papers I have already signed to finalize the transfer of the property to my name. He was able to legalize it, and to make sure that I have all the power, I did not forget to bring some policemen if she insists her nonsense claim.

"Estupido! You did nothing for this house! Ako ang nangalaga ng lupaing ito mula nang mawala si Solomon, kahit noong nabubuhay pa siya. What's written on his last will is a complete bullshit!"

Nakikinita ko na ang paglabasan ng ugat at litid sa kanyang leeg. She's fuming mad because she already knows it's the end for her.

"I was with your husband when he wrote his last will, Mrs. Monteguido. And we have to abide by his words, as what is stated on this letter. This whole property is already under Symon's name, Solomon's biological son." The executor supported me.

Syra is beside Mom, nakayuko lamang at hindi alam kung ano ang gagawin.

"Bullshit! That's fake, most probably! You can't just steal everything from me by those papers! I can sue you all for these!"

I wasn't even shocked of what I'm hearing from Mom, actually I fully expected it. When I learned that she is not my biological mother, nawala ang lahat ng natitirang pasensya ko para sa kanya.

"This is valid, Mrs. Monteguido. I have witnessed it and he put his signature on this papers." The executor added.

Mom's rage filled the house and I can't bear see her like this, losing her calm.

"That's forged! You think I will believe you??"

Mas matigas pa sa bato ang paniniwala niya. Why can't she just accept the truth? Na walang iniwan sa kanya si Daddy?

"Believe it or not Mom, this house is mine. "

Those are my final words. Kaunting pagmamatigas niya pa ay baka ipahatak ko na siya sa mga pulis na kasama ko.

"You own nothing, bastard!" Mom yelled in full annoyance and anger.

"Can you just stop it, Mom?" Nagulat ako nang biglang sumabat ang nananahimik na tupang si Syra. She raised her voice to Mom which she unusually does.

"S-Syra? What did you say?" Bumaling sa kanya si Mommy at pinagtaasan ng kilay.

I don't know what's gotten into Syra's head and why she's acting like this. She started the act when I first visit them weeks ago.

"Because you are being ridiculous, Mom. Why can't you just accept the fact that there is nothing we can do. It's all over, Mom." I saw how genuine her eyes, and I was captivated by it.

Hindi nakasagot si Mommy at nakita ko ang pagtulo ng kanyang pinipigilang luha. I was neither bothered nor affected.

"Accept the defeat, Mom. We can still start anew."

When Mom cannot handle it anymore, she rushed her way up to the grand staircase. Susundan sana siya ng mga pulis ngunit pinigilan ko.

"You can go, I can handle this." I announced to them, leaving this matters to me.

"How about your mother? Is she..." the executor is worried about it.

"Please, leave it to me."

Tumango siya at iyong dalawang pulis. I just brought them to scare Mom which I think did not work, dahil mas takot pala siya kay Syra.
