UNDER THE blanket covering Auri as she sleeps, their hand is intertwined— rather, Rage's hand was tightly holding hers.
Rage's eyes were fixed in front of him. Looking at the small tv screen but his mind was still on Auri's words.
His baby has no memories with her parents to treasure. She has none and is nonchalant about it but Rage could see it through her eyes she's hurting and breaking inside. Not only because their parents died but with the fact that they died without giving her the love she deserves. In spite of her sweet smile, she failed to cover the pain that shadows her eyes.
And that's what's hurt Rage the most. See her feign she is okay when she's not.
Rage couldn't understand why some parents couldn't love their own. Especially someone as beautiful and sweet as Auri. She's definitely didn't grow up spoiled and with a bratty attitude.
Base sa mga kwento ni Prius mabait ito. Nasa bahay lang madalas at hindi makulit habang lumalaki. At syempre mahal na mahal ito ni Prius. But why do their parents can't love her the same like how they love their son? Bakit si Prius lang ang nakuha nilang mahalin?
Bakit sina mom at dad minahal naman silang labing-isang ampon nila sa kabila ng minsan ay sakit sila sa ulo.
Pigil ni Rage ang pumalatak at mapailing.
Sabagay, may mga magulang talaga na kayang pabayaan ang anak. Karamihan sa kanyang mga kapatid ay iniwan ng mga magulang nila at mapalad na nakita at inampon ng mag-asawang Crown.
Rage sighed, then looked at Auri who is soundly sleeping. They're heading to New Zealand with some of his brothers and friends on board with kuya Kreston's private plane.
Rage badly wants to wrap Auri into a tight embrace but he can't.
Kung hindi lang nila kasama ang mga kaibigan niya, buong biyahe niya itong ikakandong at yayakapin. Pero dahil hindi naman sila nag-iisa ay wala siyang magawa kundi ang maupo sa tabi nito habang patagong hawak ang kamay nito.
And Rage will not risk it now. Prius shouldn't know about his feelings for Auri when his best friend is in a dismal situation. The last thing Prius needs right now is a brawl with him.
Bumuntong hininga muli si Rage saka lumingon kay Lorch na nasa kabilang upuan nang sumenyas ito sa kanya. Katabi nito si Dusk.
Kinunutan niya ng noo ang dalawang kapatid nang umaktong natutulog si Dusk tapos ay unti-unting ipinatong nito ang ulo sa balikat ni Lorch na natatawa. Saka pinadausdos ni Dusk ang ulo nito sa dibdib ni Lorch na agad namang sinalo ni Lorch at niyakap ang ulo ni Dusk.
Napayuko si Rage at nagpipigil na matawa lalong-lalo na ng hinalikan ni Lorch ang gilid ng noo ni Dusk saka ngumisi sa kanya at kumindat.
Tang'na kalokohan na naman ng mga kapatid niya. Naiiling na isip niya at tumingin sa harap
Pero muli rin siyang lumingon sa dalawang kapatid ng sumitsit si Dusk at sumenyas na yakapin niya si Auri.
Inikutan ito ng mata ni Rage saka tahimik na napa-tsk.
"Baby, Lorch... holding hands naman tayo... I feel lonely, eh," Dusk spoke, too sweet for Rage that he cringed.
"Sure, baby Dusk," saad ni Lorch saka inilahad ang kamay nito kay Dusk at nagholding hands ang dalawa.
Kumuha ng panyo si Lorch at tinakpan ang magkahawak na kamay ng mga ito saka itinago sa gitna ng kinauupuan ng mga ito, tapos ay sabay na tumingin sa kanya ang dalawang kapatid at ngumisi.
Damn these fuckers.
Naiinis na kinuha ni Rage ang isang may laman pang bote ng tubig at ibinato sa dalawa.
