Serie 3 - Abducted (On Hold)

CHAPTER 27

Elianna Lauren Silvestre

"Zacarias." he said full of confidence, with a menacing smirk, followed by a crack of thunder.

I slowly walked on my back, still unsure who this man is.

"Who are you?" he asked.

"I..." I swallowed.

What should I do?

Then I heard heavy footsteps running down the stairs. I felt someone's hands pulling me then embracing me, before he blocked his body from the stranger.

Sebastien's body is so tensed, you can feel the thick aura from him. It was scary.

"Who–"

"Brother," Zacarias uttered.

Immediately, his tensed body suddenly relaxed, the thick aura vanished. Unti-unting lumuwag ang mahigpit nitong pagkakagawa sa akin.

"What the fuck are you doing here?" Sebastien said with a monotone.

"Aren't you gonna invite me in?" Zacarias asked, his octave changed too, it went from a deep rich voice to a lighter one, still deep but it sounds a bit friendlier.

"You're the one who told be to come here, I nearly got left out by the plane," he said before pulling what I thought was a string, it turned out to be a leash—from a cat.

Napa-hilamos sa mukha si Sebastien, napabuntong hininga pa ito bago tumingin muli sa kapatid.

"You really took that seriously?" hindi makapaniwalang ani ni Sebastien.

Zacarias nodded like a child— a smile on his lips, and his eyes wide open.

"I forgot your dumb." insulto ni Sebastien.

"You have no idea how much time it took me to take my things and get ready," aniya habang nilampasan kami. "I even needed to change car tires," tuloy tuloy niyang ani habang patuloy na naglakad paloob.

The cat with him also didn't care, he doest want to walk Kaya ang ending ay nakahiga ito habang hila hila ni Zacarias ang leash niya.

"the traffic in Manila was also really bad, it took me a while to get into the airport," napansin ko na walang preno ang bibig nito. "then I got hungry and ordered at the food court but it took so long, " he sighed.

"then I went back because I forgot something." he looked at the cat he's holding with the leash.

"Him." he pointed at the cat.

"That's because of your impulsiveness, you're always acting first without thinking." sermon ni Sebastien sa kapatid.

"I can't leave my baby alone." he picked up the cat and hugged it.

It was a male adult cat, he's color was white with brown tabby spots all over his body, I noticed he also have a kinked tail,but one thing I noticed on the cats face is there is a prominent brown birthmark on his nose—cute.

Nagtuloy tuloy ito sa paglalakad hanggang sa maka-rating kami sa living room, naupo muna ako sa couch at tumabi sa akin si Sebastien habang patuloy na paikot-ikot na naglalakad at nagsasalita si Zacarias.

All the things he's saying ang nonsense, he really talks a lot and he cannot stay still, maka-ilang beses na rin siyang sinabihan ng kapatid na pumirme dahil nahihilo na ako sa kakalakad niya, pero mukhang hindi nito naririnig dahil salita ito ng salita.

"Ganyan ba siya parati?" tumingin ako sa Sebastien sa tabi ko.

"Yes." he sounded like he's so done with his brother's shit.
