2 Savage

Standing at the terrace of this old house with the cold wind blowing. Her dress and long hair swayed together following where the winds blows. Tress, flowers and tall grassess were dancing too. It makes her remember the old days. After so many years of mourning to her supposed to be death here she, still standing alive and kicking. She was numb and cold, especially her heart. It was a stone cold heart now. She stop going in this part of the house for the memories to stop from flashing back. She can't remember how long it is but for sure it was already a decade or millennium.

She forget not forget but delete the memories she had when tragedy happened to him. Trying her very best to forget it all but, life was too cruel. Someone awakens her death and gives her another chapter of life without giving a noticed.

So until now, she was suffering from pain, hatred, bitterness and resentment to the people in my past. No one would ever blame but those who revive her. She was blaming them for her miserable.

But blaming them was worthless, she had no power to bring back time. So she keep it to myself and a chance come and she get insane she will open it up and nag it to them. Really a good idea right?.

What with that thought?. Pedro coming from nowhere. Ask with a smile on his face.

As if you care?. What are you doing here?. I ask with one eyebrow up.

I see you from above with your deep sighing. I got worried, you know. I can't foresee what was running in that pretty mind of yours. You are like a lion. Every single second you're well prepared and ready to attack. I just want to make sure that it's not a bad idea or something freakish.

You want to know what it is?. I gave him a cruel smile.

No thank you i hate that smile. You already killed me at your thoughts.

Good, you know it. That's how he's scared of me but still he has the guts to annoy me everyday or every time we've met.

By the way Masha told me that the food is ready. How come your lunch is 2pm?. You're really incredible and unbelievable.

Do we have any problem with my lunch?. He's started to annoy me again. I had no patience so it was really easy to get annoyed.

Yes because you starve them. Do you not feel sorry for them?. They are working my gosh. Even though they are ghosts they need to eat to gain their strength and also they are not an ordinary ghost they are special.

Are you saying that i am a wicked person?. I will eat whatever time I want?. Annoying old man with a red roaster.

Yes, and stop calling me with that pet name.

First of all the pots where the food is, was not on me. All of it was in the kitchen. I didn't take it with me or bring it to my room and lock it there. Lastly I will call you for a pet name that I want whether you like it or not. You have no rights to demand understood?. Annoying old man.

Coming from the one who was lots older than me. "He mocked".

So what?. Even though I was old, I'm pretty beautiful. How about you?. I looked at him from head to toe then I gave him an insulting smile. What an ugly creature, you were as ugly as a beast in a beauty in the beast, oh! no! no! no!, you were more uglier than him.

After saying it I leave, he was cursing me but I smiled, one point is on me. He will destroy my mood if we continue arguing.

I directly go to the dinning and yes they're waiting for me. Seeing me they sit properly and fix themselves and give me a smile. I was struck when it came to dining, especially when it was time to eat.

Why looking at the food, the food will not feed you?. You're that tired enough instead of feeding yourself you wait for the food to feed your empty stomach. " I sermoned"

If you were hungry then eat. I look bad at the eyes of that old man for starving you. He doesn't think that she will just come here to eat and leave without washing the plate that he used.

Never mind, Pedro Miss, sit down now and let's eat. Also it is happier eating together than eating alone. It was sad and scary eating by yourself. "Masha".

Thanks but no thanks. I used to be alone. Next time eat without me. "They shudder to disagree on what I've said".

See that old man they want to eat with me. They want to eat together with me. " I said emphatically".

Thank you my lord for letting me know that with a little bow. Insert sarcasm.

I just rolled my eyes and mimicked something. We eat silently as always no one dares to talk or to open a conversation. Only the sound of a fork and spoon could be heard inside the dinning.

Why so silent?. Old man asked.

I look at him with irritation. Finish eating before you talk.

"He just answered me with grimace".

While eating, Mang Thomas entered the dining room with lots of grocery on his hand.

He is my driver slash assistant slash caretaker. He's job was to take care of the house and guard it. Where did he get the money?, I had no idea where?.

Don't have care where he get it. That was his job so no need to mingle myself with it. Mang Thomas is kind and helpful so i'm sure that the money he used to buy us food came from good deeds.

You six after eating go to the farm and harvest all the eggplants. The buyer will come any moment. "He ordered before leaving the dinning. He is a one word man. No need to say more words as long as the one he talks understands it then its ok.

Oh!, I forgot I owned a farm. With all kinds of animals like cows, horses, pigs, chicken, ducks, carabaos and goats. Mang Thomas gets the money from selling those animals in the city or to sell those vegetables they planted.

Old man look at me surprised. Did he say eggplant?.

I rolled my eyes. Did you hear it right?. Why asking?.

I want to make sure. When did you have an eggplant here?.

No idea. Ask Mang Thomas he knows when?.

This is your house and you have no idea about what is happening here?.

When did you care for me huh?. Aisst..

Way back before.

Oh... sure?. Why can't i feel it by the way?.

You can't appreciate things, that's why you can't feel it.

This old man was with me after I came back to life again. He's the one who cared for me when I felt so useless and felt so down after they revived me on my death.

I'd always blame him because they revived me if I wanted to die. They disturb my sleep, supposedly that sleep is for lifetime.

I hate them for reviving me. I want to forget the pain. The hurt that my family and my beloved gave. I want to forget my hurtful and sorrowful memories. But they are cruel to me. They denied it and let me suffer for a decade.

Sometimes I wonder when I got wrong. What did I do, why am I suffering like this. I can't answer myself as I remember I am kind and good. I still love them despite them treating me as an intruder. Never cared and gave me the love and attention that i want.

Masha and the others left the farm and just like before I'm all alone in this big old house. My habit was watching drama on our black and white television. I enjoyed watching Masha appear in front of me.

It's sad to be alone. Come go with me to the farm and have some fun. Even if you will not help us it's ok at least you had us to talk with.

No thank you. "Don't feel like answering".

Are you not scared here?, I saw lots of ghosts scattered everywhere. Their faces were scary. One time they chased me. I think I got a third eye, that's why I saw such a creature. I really wanted to see a witch to let my third eye close.

"She pouted while saying it". I rolled my eyes. Masha oh! Masha let me remind you that i, already dead. Ghosts can't harm me while me can harm them. They dare not to do some silly things on me if they want to go to their afterlife safely and complete. I'm not scared of them, they must be scared of me.

Ehh.... but Mang Thomas wants you to come with me. I can't go back if you're not coming.

Tell that annoying Sauce that I am ok here. I used to be alone and also tell him to stop pestering me and stop caring about me. I yelled.

Stop shouting miss i am here besides you not in the other mountain. I can hear you loud and clear. Stop shouting you will get a sore throat if you keep doing it.

She reminded me that huh!. Utter one more word and I will send you back to Sushe. Go back to them now. I can handle myself. No need to worry. You just give yourself an obstacle which is not needed.

Ok ok bye i will go. I know I will not win against you. That annoying sauce why he's not the one who will come here to get you. He ordered me but he pretty knows that in the first place even he can't convince this sassy owner of this old house.

She murmured and stamp her feet loud while exiting in the sala where I was sitting.

This is how I hated them. Even if I was too cold and arrogant to them, they kept on nagging, yielding, shouting still they cared for me. They keep me accompanied, never leave me alone. They annoy and joke with me all the time, especially Masha the talkative one.

She always talk back. Keep on talking and talking. She always irritates me and it's always hit my limit. That i hit her each time i got annoyed to her. They were scared of me but it doesn't stop them to feel cared and worried and jet around especially if I'm not in a good mood.
