Margaux POV
I was about to enter the gate when I noticed my brother's car, uhm!he was home early and as I entered I saw my brother in the living room lying on the couch watching television...
"oh hi, you home early or you didn't attend your classes?"
Winston: " my class ended early, so i went home early and you came home late? he throw glanced on me and looking at me intently it seems like i was in a hot seat .
"we have a lot of project needed to be finish asap" as i seat down on the couch that was opposite to him.
Winston: " have you eaten?"
I gave her a startled look, " ah-h not yet , how about you?"
Winston: " not yet, come on little sis let's eat " pulled me to the kitchen
"Are you okay bro" i give him a concerned look.
he sigh heavenly Winston: "even you! you forgot what day it is today it's my birt------"
"OH MY GOD!!! I FORGOT I'M SORRY, I'M REALLY SORRY OH GOSH" he smiled and pat my head
Winston: " It's okay, i know you were very busy this last few weeks little sis and since you forgot about it we're going to have a birthday date today " raising his brow up and down.
" Okay it's a nice idea and it's been a while since are last bonding, we were still kids that time how i badly miss it and i really miss you kuya" i pout ( KUYA means in english Big brother, it's a filipino endearment to our older brother).
He laugh and kiss my forehead Winston: "Yeah, I miss you too so much let's not dramatize, it's my birthday now we should have fun".
We eat together at the kitchen with our nanny, maids , driver and guards if you just curious where is our parents mom died when i was 7 years old because of a car accident I'm with her that time when the incident happened she protected me for getting hurt badly but the replacement was her death from a stab wound to the head and dad loathe us he doesn't even care about us now , he's always drunk and blamed me always for mom's death because of me he lost his wife... we would have just lost a loved one if he lost his wife we also lost a mother after his mother had been buried since then he has left, he only comes home once he gives us money everything we need and want yes but what we are looking for is the care and love of a parent but that is unlikely to happen. but I still hope we can forgive each other and get better someday and all the wounds will heal.
We were in the middle of a joyous celebration when we heard broken furniture in the living room, we looked at each other...
Winston: " what was that,we will go outside you stay here with them" he said while pointing me and of outside the kitchen at the same time with the guards and headed to the living room to check.
shortly after they came out we heard a shout from the living room again and despite the fear I still managed to go out and see what was going on, I hurried out of the kitchen and went to the living room to see what was happening and to see how my dad would punch my brother. he's drunk
"Kuya, daddy enough please i beg " i beg while crying whatever the guards were holding back from Dad and forcing him away to my brother is still not enough and when he finally let go my brother i help my brother to stand up.
" kuya, oh my god you're bleeding !!" as felt horrified when i see his face
Winston: " why did you go out didn't i tell you stay there" he looked at me while weeping the blood in his mouth
"hahahaha, you seemed to be having fun before I came" with his sarcastic tone and the guards were still holding him
my brother looked at him angry Winston: " why are you here? to my surprise I did not remember that i invited you"
"this is my house and you're still my son so you can't talk to me like that" dad shouted.
Winston: " yeah this your house but calling me your son you have no children here ever since mom died, you have killed us for your leaving us behind, for abandoning us and since then we have no longer considered you as our father if you don't want us here we will leave" at the same time my older brother pulled me.
I looked at my father he was just puzzled and didn't know what to say as we leave the house
my brother was just driving quietly and I didn't even know where we were going
" kuya, where are we going now? we didn't even bother to brings things not even a single of clothes"he didn't answer.
Just a moment we entered the basement of a high end condominium building as far as I know,
he opened the door of the car and from the door I followed him into the building...
I wondered because the employees greeted him and it seems like he is been going here for long time, it might be one of my older brother friends had a condo here and here we would spend the night temporarily while we could not find place to stay for now, I didn't even realize we had arrived and I was even more surprised when he opened the door with a card he was holding.
"kuya , whose house is this?"
Winston: It's mine " and he went into the living room and I followed him
"wa-wait, this condo is yours? how come?" still wondering
he stood up and patted my head Winston: "tsk! you have so many questions, you
better to go to sleep now because it's late, you still have class tomorrow "he said and
he led me into a room
Winston: " good night little sis" he kissed my temple before he entered into another room
I couldn't do anything because he was tired and he wasn't in the mood right now probably brought with it how much what happened today...
