Sunod-sunod na mura ang bumungad Kay Unoh ng sinagot niya ang tawag Mula sa kapatid na si Dhoz.Napalunok siya ng ilang beses.Hatred and annyonce is visible in his voice.Minsan lang magalit ang kapatid niya.At ito ang iilang pagkakataon Na kinakatakutan niya ito.Dhoz is an easy person but more dangerous.If he is a monster Dhoz can be devil when mad.
Huminga siya ng malalim bago magsalita.
"Dhoz please calm down"
Narinig niya ang mahabang katahimikan sa kabilang linya.He is tense.Dhoz hates losing control.
"Bro.I...I just marry a minor..goddamit,tell me how can I f*****g calm down?!.and why didn't you tell me!?"
Muling niyang inilayo ang kaniyang cellphone sa tenga ng marinig ang sigaw ng kapatid.Hell this is bad.
"Bro please calm down.Vawn is not a minor.She's 18,a legal age.I'm sorry I didn't tell you right away .I'm afraid you'll refuse ."
"How can I suppose to accept it?!"
Napalunok siya."Im sorry for bringing you in my problem.Just give me time.I'll just finish my venture here in China and I'll go back to fix everything"
Mahabang katahimikan.kinakabahan siya sa magiging reaksyon ni Dhoz.Mainitin ang ulo niya,at madali siyang magalit.But Dhoz can alter hell when mad.
Maya maya pa sumagot Ito sa mas mahinahong boses,halatang nagpipigil.
"Until then,i'll help you.But please..don't lie to me again."
Nakahinga siya ng maluwag.He heard Dhoz mumbled the word 'f**k you' before ending the line.
He is sincere.Hindi niya na dapat dinamay pa dito ang kapatid niya.More than anything,he don't want Dhoz to be mad at him.They're back in the game and he is married now.Tatapusin niya ang trabaho niya at siya na Mismo ang tatapos sa nasimulan ng kapatid.
-------
Bumalik ang tingin ni Dhoz Kay Vawn Na masayang nakikipagkuwentuhan sa kanilang mga bwisita pagkatapos tawagan ang epal niyang kakambal.Hanggang ngayon ay naiinis parin sya dito.He's more than willing to help him.But it was a mistake that he didn't tell him everything.Pasalamat ito at si Vawn ay nasa legal age kung hindi ay talagang magwawala siya.It's 8
years gap for f**k sake!
How can I corrupt a young girl like her .Too naive.Too innocent.The hell.
Unoh is cunning and manipulative and he hates that part of him.Nagmana ito sa ama nila.Kaya sila din yung madalas mag away.Parehas sila ng ugali.
Bumalik yung tingin niya kay Vawn Vawn is cute.She is jolly and cheerful and theres her height that annoyed him.A teen..Makikita Ito sa kung paano ito kumilos at makitungo sa mga tao sa reception.Though pagdating sa kanya ay awkward ito and he understands why.He looks like her brother or uncle..That how awkward it is.
Ilang eksena ang pumasok sa isip niya..How can she be a wife..She must be in school enjoying with her friends..traveling ,having crush or dating with some cool guys..She's too young to marry..Para itong studyanteng kagragraduate lang ng highschool.I wonder why did she let her parents do this to her..
She's your wife now.Deal with it!
Napatingala siya sa langit.."god ano tong pinasok ko?"
The reception was held at a small first class restaurant in the city.Their wedding is indeed simple.
"Im so happy for you son"
Nagulat siya ng biglang sumulpot yung ama niya sa tabi niya..
"Malik Group is now yours.."
Napangisi siya..Hindi talaga nito napapansin na hindi siya si Unoh..Kanina niya pa pinipilit magpaka pormal..at mukhang nagbunga iyon.
"I have no choice"
"Its the only way I know to protect our company and You..I know you can take care of it..You have proved me everytime..."
Tinitigan niya lang ama..look like they will talk about bussiness..Nanatili siyang tahimik kahit ang dami niyang gustong itanong..Its how Unoh will react.
"Malik group is too big for you to handle..You need someone by your side.."
Napalunok siya.."you know i didnt need anyone"
Nakakaintinding tumango tango yung ama niya.."I know son..but its supposed to be you and Dhoz..But that brute has wasted a lot of money and had taken another path...Napatawa ang ama niya..A policeman ...funny..
Kumuyom yung kamao niya..
"But I cant do anything about it..That child has defy my rules and everything..i even scrap out his wealth and legacy..still he choose the life he wants..
Binalingan niya ang ama niya..Its me Dhoz..yung walang kuwenta niyong anak.
"Your the only hope I have..Time change.Someday...you will need the Rashnil..Thank me later"
Tinapik ng ama niya ang balikat niya at mabilis na naglakad papunta sa ibang bisita..
That manipulative old man...His Tatay was once his idol...well time change.
Unoh..he have to be strong..to deal with this family ..to deal with his world..He did not just settle for it ..He chose it..Its the life he wants..Bussiness is his passion that was tainted with greed...and its the prize he has to pay..Freedom.
