Villain's Ending

Chapter II: A new beginning

Ang bigat bigat ng katawan na di ko makayanan tumayo o umupo, I can't move my body. Is it because I fell from the rooftop?

Did I survive?

My eyes slowly opened, but I closed them because of the heavy I feel. I can hear the sound of the bird and air.

"Gumising ka na, feeling señorita!" The maid said. "Wag kang feeling, anak ka naman sa labas eh!!"

When I tried to open my eyes, I was dazzled by the sunlight. So, I hid my face behind my hands and stared at the maid. "How hideous." I whispered and frowned.

"Anong hideous hideous ka diyan?! Marunong ka pala gumising eh ba't higa higa ka pa diyan?!" Hinagis niya sa akin ang hawak niyang kumot ko. "Che!! Anak sa labas." Sabi niya at umalis.

I am an illegitimate child, but still... Do you have to say that to me?

My father made a mistake with my mother. I am the mistake they made, but do I deserve those words?

My mother is my father's best friend. Then one day, they got drunk and did it. My father was married to Aunt Stacey at that time, my stepmother. That's why they see me as a mistake.

But I never asked for this like hell no. Who wants this f0cking sh1t?

Napansin kong wala kung anong ano nakadikit sa katawan ko at wala ako sa hospital. Umupo ako ng maayos at agad inikot ang aking tingin sa kwarto na pamilyar sa akin.

May nakita akong old version ng isang cellphone. Pag andar ko nito ay nakita ko ang picture ko dati sa wallper nito. Wait, this is my old cellphone?

This phone, as far as I recall, was smashed by a certain person. Is it possible that my mind is toying me?

I don't know what's going on.

I saw myself reflected in the phone as it shut off. My old self. "Is this something that happens in the afterlife? Going back in time? And, Seeing your old self?" I dropped the phone. "Then, I hate it."

Tumayo ako para pumunta sa labas. Nakatanga lang ako sa labas ng kwarto di ko alam anong susunod kong gagawin. Wala ni isa sa kanila ang gusto ko makita. 

Nasaan ba talaga ako? Patay na ba ako? Gusto ko na magpahinga.

Wala sa sarili akong dinala ng paa ko sa kwarto ni Dad. Aalis sana ako pero bigla ito bumukas. "Herésilia?" Tawag sa akin ni Dad at di ako lumingon sa kanya.

Aalis sana ako pero hinawakan niya ang braso ko kaya tumigil ako. "Why? May kailangan ka ba?" Tanong niya pero di pa rin ako sumagot. "Look at me, Herésilia. Anong kailangan mo?"

What do you mean by that, Dad? Why does a daughter needs from dad?

"Bakit di ka makatingin? Look at me, Herésilia."

Tumingin ako sa kanya na lumuluha at nagulat naman siya. "I really hate you." Kumawala ako sa paghawak niya sa braso ko at umalis.

Bumaba nalang ako dahil di ko alam anong nangyayari. Litong lito pa rin ako kung patay na ba ako o hindi kasi di ako makahinga kanina at lakas ng pagtibok ng puso ko para akong nasusuka. Bago ako namatay ay ganito rin nararamdaman ko pag kasama ko sila.

Narinig ko yung tawa ni Klaus galing sala kaya pumunta ako doon. Napatigil sila ng pagtawa ng dumating ako doon. 

"You all appear to be in such a better mood without me. I can imagine you're happy that I'm no longer alive." Sabi ko at aalis sana ako pero pagkatalikod ay nakaharap ko si Zelan tapos nasa likod niya si Dad.

Dito ako bumaba kasi kala ko sa kabila siya dadaan. We have two stairs; the one is the way in the garage, and the one I went down is the way here in the living room.

Napaikotan nila ako lahat. Nasa kabila ko sina Klaus at mga kaibigan niya kasama si Aunty Stacey, my stepmother. 

"So, this is afterlife ah? I want peace, not hell." I sighed. "I'm resting in peace now, but you all still give me a nightmare? Oh, f0ck it!!" Napamura nalang ako dahil sa inis.

"Watch your words! Look at you going crazy." Saway sa akin ni Aunty Stacey.

"You never let my voice out, and now you want me to watch my words? Does it hurt you? Because to me, it suffocates me. It drowns me!! It killed me." I break into tears. "Now, answer me. Does it make you want to die? Does it stab your heart? Does it shatter you into pieces?"

"Why are you all in silence? Answer me!!" Sigaw ko sa kanila. "Kating kati na akong malaman kung anong rason niyo."

"Herésilia..." Malungkot na sambit ni Dad.

"What?! Diba tinanong mo anong kailangan ko? Ano pa ba ang kailangan ng anak sa ama niya? Syempre pagmamahal, bobo ka ba ah!!" Sigaw ko sa kanya.

"You've overstepped your boundaries! Respect our dad!" Galit na sambit sa akin ni Klaus kaya lumingon ako sa kanya para bigyan ng matalim na tingin.

"So now, we are talking about respect, ah. Funny, you can't even give that to me, and you are asking me to give respect. You are great at joking, ah. Oh, no, you are a joke." I let out a sardonic laugh. "You made me live in hell. You made me become a demon. I hate you all!"

"And, I hate you the most, Zelan."
