WTSF 07 - The "Playboy"
Haru's POV
What the damned "cousin" of mine sent me made me fuming mad.
I clicked my tongue as I typed a reply.
—
Haru:
What on Earth do you want, Siegmund?Siegmund:
Don't mind if I do, right?
—His reply got me beyond fuming mad alright.
—
Haru:
I swear to Hades I'll give your soul to him.
—He just seen zoned my message, leaving me irritated with my damn life.
But what he first told me gave me shivers than ran down through my spine.
It was as if... I'm taking a bath with cold water.
Tsk. I'll let it pass for now, but I am damn sure I'll be serving the last laugh.
I guess I should—
*ring* *ring* *ring*
I glared at my phone to determine who is calling and who is also ruining my precious monologue.
Incoming call
0921*******An unknown person huh? From an unknown number..
It's kinda suspicious.
I pressed answer and waited for the caller to talk.
"Hoy Tyler, bat hindi ka ngayon pumasok sa trabaho?"
Nalintikan na. Si Boss lang pala.
Ay shuta mga mamshies! May pasok pala ako ngayon! Lagot~
"Oh? Boss? Bago pala number mo ah? Nakalimutan ko mag text sa'yo kanina na bukas na ako papasok."
"Aber, bakit naman tsong?"
"Ako muna take over dito sa bahay. Sige na boss, OT ako bukas. Pangako."
"Siya siya. Hala sige. Basta may bawas sahod mo bukas ah? Di ka ngayon pumasok."
"Yes boss. Salamat!"
He ended the call and I heaved a sigh.
Malas talaga sa buhay ko ang mga Sion at Bello.
Bahala na. Ako muna maglilinis dito sa bahay.
I don't have any siblings that are girls. You could say I have one elder brother and three little brothers.
Pero ang kuya ko, may asawa't anak na kaya wala na rito.
I'm older than my other brothers, kaya it's up to me to do heavy tasks especially if wala pa sa bahay si mama.
Of course I have to carry a burden too. The heaviest burden.
After all, I'm the fruit of infidelity.
My brothers got the same father.
I'm the only one who stands out.My mother used to be a maid in the household of the almighty Kirsten Tyler Sion Bello. The father of my brothers was in Saudi that time, working hard.
My real father, became interested with my mother even if he is married. Even if his wife is still alive, even if my mom's husband is still alive. My mother became a mistress, no matter what angle you looked at it.
Even if she was forced to.
I was about 12 when he arrived and learned I was a product of "infidelity" by his wife. But he's a good man. He was a good father to me, even if I wasn't his.
