Chapter Fifteen: taken away

Chapter Fifteen: taken away

Mavis' POV
The rest of the time at the wedding reception was peaceful.

Minsan napapansin ko na tumitingin sa akin ang mga kasama ni Olivia pero sa t'wing titingin ako sa kanila, namumutla sila bigla.

Napapabuntong-hininga na lamang ako at binigyang atensyon na lamang ang ibang tao sa paligid ko.

Natapos na kapagkuwan ang reception. Nagsilabasan na lahat ng tao at nakauwi na kami ni Ruxinaire sa aming mga tahanan.

I thought na matatapos na ang lahat sa kasalan. I thought that if Flare was wed to Olivia, it will be the end of my suffering. But how wrong I was when I found out what happened the next day.

Flare's POV
"Flare, sigurado ka ba sa gagawin mo?" Friar asked. We are walking down the mansion's hallway, going to my office. "Mavis would suffer more if you do this to her."

"I have the right to take away one of our children from her."

"Pero siya pa rin ang nanay, Flare. You can't just take away one of her children from her. Mahal niya 'yong mga bata. They're attached to her. Mag-isip ka naman, Flare--"

"So, do you mean I have no rights for both of them?"

She sighed. "Flare, hindi sa gano'n. What I mean is, walang bisa ang gagawin mo kung hindi papayag ang isa sa mga bata and you need the mother's consent. You have a wife now, Flare. Komplikado na ang planong gagawin mo."

"I'll make sure to take one of them away from Mavis," I said. "I choose Mayra."

Friar's eyes widened. "Ano?" she unbelievably said. "Flare, Mayra is suffering right now because of the wedding. Don't take advantage of her condition right now."

I frowned and looked at her. "Mayra's suffering?"

Friar nodded. "Yes. She has tantrums." She sighed. "Mavis said she keeps on locking up herself in her room. Mare is the only one who has contact with her by now."

"Is there a telephone line to their room?"

"There is," she replied and frowned. "Why did you ask that?"

I smirked as an idea popped into my head. "I think I have an idea."

Mayra's POV
"Mayra, what did I tell you? Burn those pictures!" Tita Ire shouted at me as I hid Papa's pictures behind my back.

"Ire, stop," Mom scolded. "We are going to eat our breakfast."

"Ate, Mayra won't stop remembering her bastard Papa if she always looks at his pictures," Tita Ire said and looked at me with rage in her eyes. 

She's scary...

"Mayra, give me those pictures!" Tita shouted at me and she stood up.

I take that as an advantage. I stood up and ran fast towards my and Mare's bedroom and hurriedly locked the door.

Tita Ire slammed her fist on the door. I could hear it from inside. I could also hear the shouts of hers but I don't care.

I sat down on my bed and looked at Papa's pictures. A tear fell down my eyes.

Papa just got married to another woman and I hate the woman he married. It was that b*tchy motherf*cking witch and her name was Olivia Pixel f*cking Montenegro, sister of Tito Ty and Tito Throne.

I hate that my Papa chose that b*tch more than Mama just because he was hurt. I hate him for doing that but I still love him and I can't give him up too easily.
