I've Been Executed

Chapter 48

Saviel's POV

I groaned as I run my fingers through my hair.

"Mom, ayaw ko nga."

"Sav naman. Bigla ka na nga lang umalis sa party kagabi ng hindi nagpapaalam tapos ayaw mo pang pumunta sa after-party." Like me, I can clearly hear frustration on her voice.

I rolled my eyes mentally upon remembering what happened last night.

That animal, I can't take to see her again especially not now. The scenario from last night is still visible on my memory and I won't gonna trigger myself more.

Baka kung anong magawa ko sa babaeng 'yon.

"Mommy, 'yang after-party na sinasabi mo baka sa hotel na naman ganapin. Who's the visitors now? Famous athletes and celebrities?" I sarcastically asked as I play the Rubik's cube in my hands.

"No. This party will be held at their mansion because Atty. Hilda insisted to. Hindi rin naman nangyari ang party na pinagplanuhan kagabi dahil nalasing si Zj." Mas lalong uminit ang ulo ko ng marinig ang pangalan n'ya.

Ewan ko ba. Dati yung ugali lang n'ya ang ayaw ko tapos ngayon kasama na ang mukha at pangalan n'ya.

Ang sarap n'yang burahin sa mundo.

"They can still continue the party without me. My presence doesn't need there." I heaved a sigh at basta na lamang binitawan ang Rubik's cube sa table ni Mom dahil ako ang nakaupo sa swivel chair n'ya.

In span of more or less 1 minute, I already finished it.

I heard my mother's small hissed bago ito sumandal sa may gilid ng table n'ya. She eyed me intently pero ngumisi lamang ako at nakipagtitigan sakan'ya.

There's no way I would become intimidated by her. I have her pride and ego na mas mataas pa kaysa sa kahayupan ni Zajei Loure.

"What happened last night? Why did you leave without further notice? Hinahanap ka pa naman nina Uncle Saijen." I shrugged my shoulders.

If they only knew kung bakit ako biglang nawala, baka tawanan lamang nila ako. Like seriously, if someone would know about my whereabouts last night, they would laugh the fvck out. They wouldn't stand at my side dahil mas matutuwa pa sila sa naging itsura ko kaysa maawa.

"How about that Zajei? Why did she got drunk?"

"Malamang uminom ng alak kaya nalasing." Sarkastikong aniya na ikinawala ng buhay ng mga mata ko.

Talking with a lawyer is not that easy most especially when that lawyer is my mother. She would throw me a nonsense statements out of the blue and in the middle of serious arguments and surely, I won't win. Iilang beses ko palang natatalo sa isang argument si Mommy dahil sino ba naman ang mananalo kung aalma pa lamang ako ay hahagisan na n'ya ako ng mga Republic Acts thingy? That's absurd.

"Whatever, Mom." I says, dismissing the topic. I stood up from the swivel chair and kiss my mother's cheeks. "Bye, I gotta go."

"Where would you go?"

"Hahanap ng bagong ina." I nonchalantly utter that earn a powerful smack from her.

Tumatawang lumayo ako at bigyan s'ya ng isang mapaglarong ngisi. When I saw how serious she is, my smirk became wider until it formed into a grinning smile.
