CHAPTER 5.1
Esravien Fuenteciville, sounds great.
His surname is kinda rich to hear. But how did he become just a worker in the fishery of mom and dad?
Maybe he's abandoned by his father. But why did I not seem to notice her mother among them? He and Mike were the only ones I saw in their house.
Maybe it was just because I was drunk that I couldn't pay attention to the whole area around them. Who are their roommates?
As I was about to finish arranging my belongings in my closet, I simply comforted myself by looking around in my room.
In fairness to dad, he bought a nice house. The whole aura of this house is simple but alluring. Especially here in my room as if dad really customized the e-suit all the design.
And guess what design he puts in my room.
There was a knock on my door.
"It's open," I answered slightly knocking on the knocker.
The door opened weakly. When it was opened, instead of looking at Esra's eyes first, he seemed to be happy with the whole design in my room.
Okay fine. I know how his brain working this time.
Before giving his opinion, he was slightly grinning.
"Hmm, It's time to eat."
After that, he closed his eyes on me and he smiled a little before closing the door.
"What's that?" I was confused by the behavior of Esra.
I just finished what I was doing. When I finished, I got up and walked closer to the door. After a while, before I closed the door again, I barely glanced at the overall design of my room.
"My room is cute, peppa pig is cute too." I shuddered for a moment with peppa pig.
I'm swaying my hand as I jump towards the kitchen. When I was shocked because someone suddenly shouted.
"Hey kid, don't even jump in there. You might forget, you weigh too much."
"Hey brother. For your information." while preaching to the man in front of me I put my hands on both waists and talked to him.
"Maybe you forgot. This house belongs to me." I am proud of it. He lowered himself to the refrigerator to get cold water.
"What is that?" surprisingly he asked me when I got cold water.
"Maybe it's water," I said sarcastically. I went back to the table.
"Crazy. What I mean-"
"Brother, are you cursing me?" voicing like an innocent girl and begging.
"Tsk. Fine sorry, just eat there." he started to stand up so I wondered why.
"And... are you done eating? Aren't you going to eat?" he immediately stopped his plan to leave his post. But he just sighed as if someone was looking up but I could see his Adam's apple going up and down.
When he lowered his head and I could see that his face showed annoyance.
"Tss."
"Why brother?"
"Child. Can you please stop calling me brother. We are not siblings okay?" he was annoyed.
It was a really surprising promise.
"S-Sorry, I'm just like this when the person I'm talking to is a few years older than me. I'm sorry."
I took my plate with only food. The glass with only cold water. And I started carrying them to my room. I prefer to just eat in my room, rather than argue with stupid men.
I just got kicked out at home. Even here, I feel like I'm still at fault. Duh!
"That Esrang hasn't plan to stop me. Esrang? Hmmm, Esrang..." I laughed at the thoughtful name.
If he doesn't like his older brother, Esrang, get ready.
I keep on laughing.
I just pay more attention to my food. To relieve my body stress. Maybe even my fats will leave me, I don't want that. I only have my fats.
Still missing!
I just ate until I felt my stomach full. So I stopped and thought about what to do after eating.
I don't have a phone, I have a laptop but I don't know if I have the internet. I have an iPod for a sound trip.
But, I am not in the mood to listen to music.
There maybe a TV outside. Ah. Yes, what? Maybe I'll just watch TV.
I just put away my food and then left my room again. The first thing I did was put the plates in the sink, and I decided to wash it later. I first washed my hands and wiped my hands using the rags on the handle of the refrigerator.
I went to the living room to relax first and watch TV.
Not even halfway through what I was watching, suddenly someone grabbed my attention because the voice of the man who was always hot-tempered and looks like a woman who's menstruating was already screaming in the kitchen.
I noticed that the voice seemed to be getting louder and louder all over the house.
"Hey fat kid, didn't I tell you not to messed here because we don't have a maid. What do you think of me ha! Your personal nanny?" this man irritates me.
"Hey you too Esrang. What is your stomach firing?" I shouted back. What did he think of me just oppressing him? No way. To my parents yes maybe, I will not shoot. But to someone else? Especially since I'm not even a blood relative? We will find out who is more stable in conflict.
"Please wash it, señorita. You ate what you ate, you just left it in the sink, it might upset you if you don't come back. And wait a minute. What do you call me again?" he said calmly with a sarcastic streak earlier when the tone suddenly changed as if I had said something strange that warmed his head.
"Shall I call you?" I act thinking, I still hold the bottom of my chin.
"What do you mean Esrang? Ha? I forgot. I mean, I don't know what you are trying to say." I controlled my laughter for a moment.
CHAPTER 5.2"If I was you, don't try to touch your chin, you'll be confused about where your chin is. Tsk." he was about to leave when I stopped him."Are you insulting brother Esrang?" When he was about to leave, that’s why I could only see his back. When he confronted me, I hurriedly sat back on my chair and just watched TV even though I’m not focused on the show itself.
CHAPTER 6.1"Triah? God. Triah. Jen. Triah woke up. Jen." Karmi's voice echoed throughout the room. I do not remember what happened earlier."What h-happened?" I first asked Karmi, when Jen suddenly joined me."Oh my god. Why were you crying so much earlier? That's why you’ve fainted. You're still heavy." Jen's worriedly
CHAPTER 6.2When Mike left my room, I suddenly thought, a lot has really happened in my life. In my life I have been with Esra under one roof for three years. After that, I still could not come home again. But I graduated from high school. And that's where I met Jen and Karmi.FLASHBACK...
CHAPTER 7.1The days fly so fast, and it's Monday. It means this is going to be my first day in my new school. And how I wish my first day would be okay. I'm now already done and packed. I'm just waiting for someone to be with me to guide me to SNHS.
CHAPTER 7.2We are going to enter this public school like my old school, just private. But here I can also say that the entrance is clean and organized because there is a security guard to open for each student."How fat.”"Yeah wait, why is she with Ikee? How she related to him?"
CHAPTER 8.1There are curious students who were looking at us fighting, between me and this girl whom I don’t know the name. And I couldn’t tell if what creature is she. It seems like she belongs to a monkey’s family. Her eyes were round, which will almost pop out. You can add the nose that as if being shy to all who could see it, like not be able to come out of the cave bowing to everyone, and almost you can’t see the holes in it. Gets that? If not… fine! She has a flat nose!I glared at her that no matter how I want to achieve big eyes just to stare at her, but still, I couldn't make it.
CHAPTER 8.2Especially now that I remember what mommy and Trisha were saying to me before they kicked me out of the house. It's like the weight of feeling that people think of me in that way. What will I do? Just oppressing so as not to aggravate? Will I just lose myself just to say I'm pity? Will I just be humble myself just to say I am a good student and child?I do not want that. Because the truth is, when you are kind, everyone will bully you. When the
CHAPTER 9.1Since Krissa was already friends with me, she offered me earlier that it would be better if we sat next to each other. And since we are in the first row, in short, we seated at the end of the column chairs occupied by Krissa, because she’s tall and I am fat. So I also agreed with her to swap chairs with a student next to her before. Fortunately, the classmate did not appeal."There! The chair is fit for you!" Krissa teased me with lively applause.
EPILOGUEPrevious days were only taken by me as challenges to measuring how brave I am. And now I could finally say that I am finally here with my colleagues wearing black and with different colors in the collar part. I should celebrate after this--- the graduation ceremony.'Mondejaro, Triah Benizh'Bachelor of Science in Mass Communication major in Artistry. With Latin honors as Magna Cum laude. And awarded as Best in Artistry.When I heard my name my heart beat faster, finally I am here...finally I am also done with burning eyebrows every time I study here at Harvard University."Congratulations, Miss Mondejaro," greeted a few professors here at the University. Some of them are my professors, and I am proud to say that I also became their favorite student.Endless gratitude was my response to all of them as they shook hands. The pleasure I felt at these times was overwhelming.After our life in C
Chapter 50The questions that bother me right now are running through my mind. Why are they all here? Why is dad here? And why is there a paper here in front of dad?"D-Dad," I softly asked dad, but dad did nothing but hold a black ball-pen in his right hand. While bent over and facing the paper itself.Loud applause echoed throughout the apartment so it grabbed my attention."This is hilarious. The Mondejaro family is complete." the man let out a loud laugh, it looks like maybe it's the daddy of Esra and Jivo."What is that doing here? That's not right!" mom's pushing me away."No, it's fine, Analissa. You don't want your whole family here?" it let out a devilish laugh."I'm not kidding here, Arthuro. And one more thing---aren't you done with what you want to be signed so we can get out of here? Because the space in this apartment is shrinking." Mom's tone of voice was a hint of insult.Because of what mom said I immediately turned the pape
Chapter 49I got out of Jiv's car without hesitation, but he immediately grabbed me when he saw a black car approaching. I just gave in to Jiv and tried to hide inside the car."W-Who are they?" every word I throw at him is soft and strong."I-I don't know. I don't know." he still grabbed me.I just raised my eyebrow at the curiosity on his face. "A-Are you sure? How can I trust you? Your father is the one who called here, Jiv, and even though I didn't go to college---I'm not a fool." I know I uttered too many words, but I felt differently about him."Is that how you think of me, Benizh? Is that so? Answer me," his eyes were already glaring staring at me. Very different from Jivo whom I met cheerful and heavenly.I couldn’t measure a stare at him, so I averted my eyes from his eyes. But he violently reached both my shoulders and immediately confronted him. I was already writhing in pain caused by the painful twisting of his hand on my shoulder.
Chapter 48My jaw clenched, and my fist was about to explode with the tightness of my clenching. Just a few pokes, I plan to rush to Trisha. But when I took a step, someone stopped me.I was about to scream when someone suddenly covered my mouth and immediately walked me away from dad's room.I was already struggling with the extreme tightness of overcoming my hand and covering this man’s hand in my mouth.'Damn! Why now? Trisha is still in dad's room!'Words that in my mind can’t go out onto my mouth. I didn't see a security guard in front of dad's room, maybe they’re looking for something to drink because I didn't buy water.Shocks!Instead of continuing the struggle, I chose to drift away so as not to waste my strength. And I might even be attacked by my phobia at the thought of things."Shhh." calming down even more this man over me. How can I calm down if this is his way?I noticed that when we were in the parking
Chapter 47I spent the night first before going to the hospital and saying hello to dad. Since last night I can hardly sleep well because of the revelations I know about Trisha---should I still consider her my sister?How could a mom do that to dad? Did she really love dad or was it just his money she needed. Does dad know about it too?"Triah, don't stress yourself up and you might get sick again. Remember that you are also working on your body that you should also take care of." Jen caressed my back and grabbed my attention so that I couldn't think of anything else."I just can't help but remember what I found out yesterday, Jen. And one more thing, what if dad---finds out about Trisha?” I opened my eyes staring intently at Jen because of the shocking thought."Triah, stop glaring at me, no matter how want your eyes to get bigger but you can’t. You’re still chink" she was still joking with me and smiling.I felt a little annoyed.
Chapter 46Trisha's POVI can't count how many times I've been back and forth here to the apartment where we were staying, and to the bar that was closed because it turned out that mom's service was illegal.My brain no longer wants to digest what is happening now in my life. As much as I know, but I thought I knew everything, I thought mom wouldn't keep me a secret. But why didn't she tell me that her bar was illegal?"Trisha, sweetie." mom called me calmly when she saw me just entering the kitchen."Yes," I replied as I went to the small and old refrigerator and fetched cold water. Suddenly a cockroach passed by."Ew! Ew, ew!" I was about to squat on the foot of this cockroach that had passed by the edge of the predator."What's that, Trisha?" mom raised her voice."Cockroach," was my short reply. "Where should I throw it, mom?" mom's eyes narrowed at my question."Damn, Trisha. Where are such things thrown?" mom raised her voice agai
Chapter 45Hunter's POVI knew it was too early for me to say how I felt about Benizh. I wasn't like this then, my eyes were always saturated with different kinds of women, because I worked in a bar as a vocalist.I don't even believe the saying---love at first sight.But when I saw her in their fishery, it was as if my heart was flying with its lightness. Her beauty is amazing, she is like a soft teddy bear that is nice to cuddle.I'm still acting now hugging the pillow on my bed. I am still in my bed, I think because for two days it happened in a bar where my band and I were singing. And I even found out that Trisha and Triah's mother was the owner then and another fact I knew that...it's illegal.Fortunately, the night their mommy was arrested, I was still in the parking lot of the car at the hospital. And I did see their mom being arrested by the police.I also saw Esra accompanying Trisha inside the patrol car. I went back to the hospital to
Chapter 44I don’t know why I wasn’t comfortable talking to the two when Esra was also here. Someone whispered to me not to speak while he was still here. So I better keep quiet first."Triah? I am here to let you know that your mom escaped from prison, but you already know." There was a look of frustration on his face."Is it true that your mom, Triah, escaped? Just when?" Mike turned on me in shock."Yes, Doc. Madam Nalissa escaped---including Trisha." Greta replied, so I barely looked at her because Esra was here."Why, Triah?" he whispered to me when he came to my ear.I just responded to his whisper again. "N-Nothing." I'll just have a short answer.Maybe Esra felt deprived when I didn’t pay much attention to him."Ahm, Triah," he calls me once hand on his nape.I immediately confronted him so that he would not feel that I would ignore him forever. "Yes?""C-Can we talk?" I looked at the two next to me.
Chapter 43'Where am I? Why it is so light? Mom? Trisha? Manang? Greta? Where are you?'I just kept walking on the smoky floor, I didn’t know why I just seemed to be floating.'Dad?' I shouted but I noticed that every time I shouted I didn't open my mouth. What's going on?I saw someone behind me. So I quickly approached it. When I saw his image I was dumbfounded.'Dad, a-are you awake yet?' I hugged it tightly and cried again. 'Dad, I thought I couldn't hug you anymore, I'm so worried about you.' I noticed a brown envelope he was holding.And he slowly handed it to me. 'Dad, what is this?' I asked, but dad didn't answer me.He was looking behind me but I didn't see anything when I turned around.'Who are you looking at dad?' Dad suddenly disappeared in front of me. 'Dad, dad. Dad!' I cried until I felt a heartbeat.'Dad,'I was suddenly thrown back."Dad!" my voice growled because I had been crying while sleeping.
