Mason
It's almost 10 in the evening but I'm still in my way back home. There's only few cars who passed by and some of them are employees who work at night. All stores,shops, and malls were close while the lights of fast food chain sign board starts to enlighten the view of the dark sky.
It's been 3 years since I left the Incorporated. Never hesitate to think what I'm going to do outside of those walls. I came because I want to know my real self, the truth behind my past, the reason why I get in that deadly organization.
Being a adopted son of Orion Cavalari, is not that easy. There are things that you need to be considered and to be follow. A day of your life needs pain to harden your weak soul.
The time is about to end but still I only have one pieces of my real self that I got when I tried to look for it. No clues, no tracks, no sights, no mystery.
I'm half away,pero saglit na dumaan muna ako sa drive thru nang makaramdam ng pagkagutom.
Hinugot ko ang cellphone na nasa loob ng jacket saka sinubukan na tawagan si Vee, nagbabasakaling gising pa ang isang 'to.
"Ito lang po ba lahat, Sir?"
"Wait a sec. I have to take this call." Ilang ring ang narinig ko bago pa man niya iyon sagutin.
"Mmm? Ano?" Antok na antok niyang wika.
"What do you want to eat?"
"Ha? To eat?"
"Stupid! Ano ang gusto mong kainin? Nasa Jollibee ako ngayon, nagdadrive thru. Bilisan mo!"
"Tinawagan mo lang ba ako p---"
"Yeah!" Putol ko sa sasabihin niya. "Hurry up!"
"Teka! Ginising mo lang ako e! Di ako makapag-isip." Bigla akong napatingin sa babaeng naghihintay sa i-order ko, at ganun na lang ang pagtatakang makitang malapad ang ngiti nito sakin. "Isang Jolly Spaghetti na lang at isang twister fries."
"No more add ons?" Papanigurado ko pero agad din naman siyang sumigaw na 'wala na'.
"Tsk! Got it." At basta na lang pinatay ang tawag.
"Kapatid niyo po?"
"There's no hell a way, she's going to be my sister." Bahagyang nagulat siya sa sinabi ko pero bigla din bumaliktad ng makita ko siyang kinilig.
"Kung ganun pala, girlfriend niyo po 'yun?"
Nawala agad ang gulat sa mukha ko at minaliitin siya ng tingin."She's not. Won't you mind your own business?"
"A-ahm! Sorry po.... a-ano nga pala yung i-add niyo?" Good!
Sinabi ko naman sa kanya kung ano ang iniorder ng babae na 'yun saka binayaran ang bill.
"Sir, baka gusto niyo pong magpa-add din ng Apple Pie. Masarap mo siyang kainin, dahil mainit pa ito." Suggest niya ng inabot nito ang perang binigay ko.
On a sudden moment, I swallow my saliva down to my throat and feel the traumatic event happened to my life. I gripped the wheel so tight as my veins walk around my body up to my brain.
"A-ayos lang po ba kayo, Sir?"
Humugot ako ng napakalalim na hininga at bahagyang umubo ng mahina.
