(Magnus Haven #1) Fighting For His Name (COMPLETED)

Chapter 36

I wake up with a loud screams from the living room. The adrenaline rushes inside me as I made my way into them. Ang nakikita ko lang ngayon ay nakatalikod si daddy habang kinakausap siya ni mommy. Nang masiguro ko na hindi nanaman ito ang kapareha noon, agad akong naghanap ng kasambahay para may mapagtanungan ako.

My eyed are with them until I saw Manang crossing her fingers while fear crept into her face. The outside is a little bit bright now. What on earth are they fighting about?

"Manang.." My voice sounds so sleepy. I'm still sleepy and I won't be able to get back at sleep when they are like this. Fighting while the sun's showing up. "Ano po bang nangyayari?"

Tinignan niya ako at biglang niyakap. Sumigaw nanaman si daddy and I can hear what he's saying. He kept saying 'Attorney, do something. in the middle of their call. "Hija.."

"Ang aga po.. Bakit po ba?" Bigla niya akong hinila papunta sa kusina. Sinarado niya ang pintuan at malalim na huminga. Malakas ang pakiramdam ko na this is not about what he did before. Because if it is, my mom should be the one screaming at top of her lungs.

"Hija... Hindi ko rin alam pero ang naririnig ko, may nagsampa ng kaso sa daddy mo.." Garagal niyang sabi. That made me frozen from my seat. Agad napunta ang tingin ko sa kanila and mom almost hit her head to dad's torso because he immediately walked out!

Napasunod ako nang wala sa oras. I found them running away and the car was parked in front of our gate. "Daddy! Mommy!" Mabilis akong tumakbo sa kanila. Tahimik pa ang paligid and my voice can ruin someone else's sleep. Pero wala na akong pakialam.

All I need to know now is what the hell was happening and why is my daddy being sued! "The firm are still closed, Kaleb! We can go later!" Si mommy nang makalapit ako sa kanila. Dad was rushing into the driver's seat.

"Daddy.." Napatingin silang dalawa sa akin. Mommy immediately hugged me as soon as she saw me. Malalim lang ang tingin sa akin ni daddy, magulo ang buhok niya at bakas na bakas ang galit sa mga mata niya.

"Helga.. Khloe.. Stay inside. Walang lalabas hangga't hindi ko sinasabi o hindi pa ako bumabalik." Nanigas ako sa narinig. He was about to close the damn door pero sinangga iyon ni mommy kaagad.

"Kaleb, calm down! You're in the berge of anger kaya ka nagkakaganito! Kumalma ka muna!" Hinawakan ko iyong pintuan dahil nahihirapan siya na hawakan iyon, sa kadahilanang nagpupumilit si daddy isara.

"How the hell I'm gonna calm if someone sues me just for not promoting their child?!" I grabbed my mom's hand. Dad won't stop until he gets the chance to drive away.

"Manong, lock all the gates. Wala kang palalabasin kahit sino sa mag-ina ko." That made our guard to hold us and escorts us until we get inside. Of course, kumakawala si mommy but I managed to drag her inside.

If that's what daddy wants, if that's what he knows to protect us from the possible danger around, susunod nalang kami. "Kaleb! Kaleb!" Patuloy pa rin sa pagsigaw si mommy pero inaya ko na siya sa loob.

Gulong-gulo na ang isipan ko pero hindi ako makakakuha ng sagot kapag ganito kagulo lahat. Agad akong nanghingi ng tubig para mapakalma si mommy. When Manang brought the water, pinainom ko kaagad iyon kay mommy.

I was about to ask her but she went silent. Nakatulala lang siya at nakaawang ang labi. "There's no way I'll watch that company to crash down.." Then her tears starts to fall down.

Hindi ko alam ang gagawin ko, the more I want to ask what really happened, the more chance na hindi masasagot ang kahit isa sa mga tanong ko.

"Ihatid niyo nalang sa kuwarto at may kakausapin ako." Binigay ko si mommy sa mga kasama namin sa bahay. Umalalay ako hanggang makarating kami sa kuwarto niya. When we're finally at their room, humiwalay na ako kaagad at pumasok sa kuwarto.
