章節 12: Chapter 10: Beastmen
Reycepaz's Pov
Kakagaling ko lang sa opisina para isubmit ang papelis na ipinapagawa ng faculty sa'kin.
I was about to open the door that has been slightly opened when I caught a glimpse of one of my students being scold by one of their professor.
I didn't burst in to interrupt and just waited outside, until the bell rang and Mrs. Salvane, their math teacher leave.
Napansin niya akong naka-upo sa bench ngunit binigyan lang niya ako ng matulis na tingin na tila ba ay para akong cataract na sagabal sa kanyang paningin. Ano bang problema ng matandang 'yon?
I just stared her until her back slowly disappearing from my sight. I also got up and entered the room.
The silent eat the whole room and not a single one of them said a word. It looks like the whole section has been scolded.
Nang tinanong ko ang studyante kong nasa harapan kung ano ang nangyari, sabi nito na pinagalitan daw ang kaklase nilang si Elaiza, dahil sa palagi nitong pagsuot ng panyo sa kanyang kamay na nakakasagabal daw sa paningin ng guro nila. Tapos ipinaglaban ito ng buong seksiyon dahil baka raw na may dahilan si Elaiza kung bakit niya ito ginagawa, kaya silang lahat na 'yung napagalitan.
Tama nga talaga ang inisip ko kanina, na hindi lang si Elaiza, ngunit silang lahat ang napagalitan.
But let me clarify something, this is really a huge misunderstanding, why teachers and all facilities in every institute desires a student to be a perfect model? Hindi naman ang kamay na may bandana o tattoo ang magaaral diba? Hindi naman ang buhok na may kulay o uniforme na naayon sa kasarian ang magaaral, kung hindi ang taong sumusuot mismo nito.
Physical doesn't matter as long as the students comfortable for what they're doing and still learning. I know that it's very ironic that it comes from my mouth, besides I judge all the students na nasasalubong ko sa daan simula palang ng unang pag pasok ko rito.
You can judge, but don't overdo it. You can warn people and that's it. Don't let people change because you want to.
I proceeded with the lesson and gave them their task, like I did from other section. Except for Elaiza, I called and told her to follow my pace.
While walking in the silent field I led our conversation.
"You can tell me your problem, if it's okay with you. I'm just here to listen"
I spoke to her seriously. And I can only hear the field winds, maybe she was just shy.
"I won't scold you, I promise that"
After I said these words she looked at me as if to make sure the person she was talking to could be trusted. Habang panay pa ang hawak nito sa kamay na may bandana na tila ba ay meron talaga itong itinatago.
I again face the eyes that are deeply hiding something. Eyes that burn with fire but can't ignite because they can only do so much.
It took a few seconds and she deeply inhaled a lot of air and then blew, na para bang naka-ahon ito sa kahirapan.
She stopped walking and removed the handkerchief on her left hand which literally shocked me.
"I'm afraid that when the teachers see this bruises, they will call mom and dad and ask what happened. Then if that happens, I will definitely not be able to study anymore," she worriedly explained.
Makikita talaga sa bawat pinapalabas nitong mga salita ay halatang malungkot ito.
Ngayon ko pa sasabihin na hindi lang pala ako nagiisa, sapagkat marami rin pala ang nakakaranas nang mga malulupet na bagay tulad nito.
The bruises will going to fade someday but the experience was different, it will never going to vanish from our memories.
Maraming pasa ang nagkalat sa kamay nito na kung saan tinakpan niya ng panyo upang hindi makita ng sino man. Ipinakita din niya ang kanyang likod na puno rin ng mga maiitim na pasa.
Tama naman siya na kapag makita ito ng isa sa mga guro ay talagang magsusumbong ito sa kataas-taasan at ipapatawag ang mga magulang nito.
There is also a huge chance that when he comes home, he will be full of bruises again, and what's the worst is, he will probably never be able to return to the university.
Mabuti nalang at ako pa 'yung nakakaalam tungkol dito at hindi ang ibang guro, sapagkat karamihan sa kanila ay uhaw na uhaw sa pera at posesiyon.
"Don't worry, you can trust me" kalma kong sabi sa kaniya.
"I'm sorry if I ask you, I just want to know why they're giving you bruises?" I added.
She take a deep breath and start explaining.
"Both of them received a tittle. My Dad obtain the title "The King of Kings" while my Mom gained the title of "The Queen of Conqueror". Even they gained tittles by gambling. Things hasn't changed, they no longer pay attention to me and my siblings." Sambit nito at umupo sa damuhan habang ang kanyang dalawang kamay ay nasa likod nito hawak ang mga damu ng field at nakatingala sa langit na puno ng kulay rosas na ulap.
"When they got home drunk, we will immediately know that they're defeated into their games, besides they suddenly beat us even we didn't do anything. The thing is, it's opposite when they're going to win, because they will bring a lot of food, but still, we're not happy with it. That's not how we want to a family, I like the n—normal one... " Her long continuation explanation.
A few grains of tears were also shed from her eyes, which she immediately wiped away.
While she's telling her story, I imagined the situation and how difficult it was for her. First of all she's a woman, at sino ba naman ang gusto ng ganyang magulang?
During those times I had no choice but to listen to her tales. I haven't thought of an effective way to stop her parents. I felt sorry for her, i really am, not because she was my student, not because she's a woman, but because I considered them as one of my family that shares with the same blood.
I really need to find a way to overcome this damn problem. I know she need my help even she didn't asked for it, and as a teacher—no, as their father, i should work for it.

It's already twilight, at wala ng pasok. I stopped at the dorm first and left my belongings before leaving. Hindi na ako nagbihis pa, total hindi naman nangangamoy ang kili-kili ko kaya wala namang problema.
I don't need to look elegant, this is not a grooming competition. At higit sa lahat wala namang pakialam sa kung ano ang susuutin ko. This is my body and I can do whatever i want.
I immediately got into Elaiza's own dark car waiting outside the university which was obviously expensive. I'm not sure but this is a Bugatti Divo with worth of 5.4 Million Dollars. It's one of my favorite collections, pero wala na akong panahon para mangulikta pa ng sasakyan. Being a teacher is very difficult path. Dahil hindi lang ang mga papelis ang pinoproblema mo sapagkat, kailangan mo bigyan ng pansin ang mga studyante mo, If they are totally healthy, physically or mentally. Besides, if they're not well, it will become a huge hindrance to me being a teacher. That's why, I care so much for them.
"Sigurado ka ba dito sir?" tanong niya nang ako ay nakapasok na.
"Am I not serious to you Elaiza? Alam kong natatakot ka, but you shouldn't. This is the best way, Ms. Sutton" paliwanag ko sa kaniya.
Pupunta kami ngayon sa bahay nito, upang kausapin ang mga magulang nito ng pribado.
Ang layo pala ng bahay nito, mabuti nalang talaga at napakabilis tumakbo ng sasakyan niya.
From the gate itself you will immediately know that they are rich, besides the width of it, is the same as the gate of the university, the only difference is the design.

The bigger their gate is the bigger its house, or should I say Mansion.
It was as if my earlier confident face and feelings had suddenly diminished.
Pagpasok palang namin sa pintoan nito ay agad na siya nitong sinalubong ng mga katulong.
"Buenas noches. Bienvenido de nuevo, madame, y bienvenido a nuestra mansión, el visitante de mi amo!"
Medyo nagulat ako ng binati kami ng limang beastman na mga katulong nito. Hindi ko alam kung bakit nabasa nila ang mukha ko at nagsasalita sila ng Spanish. Hindi ko ipagkakait, sapagkat may lahi akong kastila. Siguro tumatak 'yung pagka-kastila sa mukha ko. Thanks to my spanish grandfather and he teach me how to use this language. Buti nalang din at napag-aralan ko ang lenguwaheng ito at hindi na ako mahihirapan pang itindihin sa tuwing may magsasalita ng Spanish.

Ang nakakagulat at exciting pa dito ay BAEASTMAN! Sino ba naman ang nilalang hindi matatakam—este magugulat sa beastman?
I really want to touch their furs like— God please stop my hands from temptation! I'm begging you.
Their ears that so flurry and attractive, I call it flurry because it's very fluffy and at the same time it's furry. I want to play them with my fingers, bite it and even massage them everyday.
Ang malalambot at mabalahibong katawan ay binibigyan ako ng temptasyiyon na paglaruan sila ng tuluyan, ngunit nagmamataas ang aking pagiging professional at ito ay pilit pinigilan kahit na labag sa aking kaluuban.
I will definitely gonna regret this, I'll mark my word!
Alam kong away pamilya ito at wala akong karapatan na makisali sa away nila, pero karapatan ni Elaiza dito ang pukos ko. She have a right to defend her side and she badly need my help even he didn't ask to. Like I said before, I don't want them to experience what I've been through.
I hope they'll get what's my point.
"Where are your siblings now?" I asked her. She mentioned that she's the elder daughter of six more siblings she have.
"I think they're in their respective rooms" she replied, bago umakyat sa ikalawang palapag para magbihis.
I rolled my eyes and they were obviously rich. Because, there are various artifacts on display in every corner of their mansion. I sat down in their leaving room and one of the maid immediately gave me tea.
shocks! She's a b—bunny?
"Can I play you, please?"

Those are the freaking question came out from my mouth, like hindi na talaga makapagpigil pa ang bibig ko na sabihin ang bagay na kanina ko pa gustong sabihin.
I really want to grab her body and play it until I get bored. I want to grab her even without her permission.
I become wild.
I'm really become paranoid.
I can't stop this stupid temptation of wanting to play them. Ah!
Ngunit parang gumuho ang mundo ko matapos marinig ang sinabi niya.
"I'm sorry sir, I still have lot of works to do.."
Masaya naman ako dahil dito napigilan ko ang sarili ko, but the embarrassing thing I did earlier will never be forgotten. Never—ever.
Kahit na ako ay obsessed sa mga beastmen ay hindi pa rin ako naging kampante, hindi ko sana iinumin ang ibinigay nitong tsa-a dahil inisip ko na baka may kung ano itong inilagay tapos mahihilo nalang ako bigla, at paggising ko nakatali na ang buong katawan ko sa upuan and they tortured me until I gave them what they wanted.
Pero, I realized that my life wasn't a movie, and my mind was just over acting too much.
"Gracias.." pasasalamat ko sa kaniya bago ito dali-daling umalis. Baka inisip niyang manyak ako HA! HA!
"Anong oras ba sila makakauwi?" Asik ko ng eksaktong pagkaalis ng flurry na bunny ay bumaba na si Elaiza.
"Nandito na sila"
I was suddenly get chills when I heard a car parked outside their mansion. Kakatanong ko pa nga, nandiyan na pala sila.
Ito na, ito na ang lakas loob kong gustong kausapin kanina tapos ngayon ay biglang nanibago ang pakiramdam ko. Natatae na naman ako bigla. My anxiety poop hit me again.
"Buenas noches. Bienvenidos de nuevo a su mansión, Señor y Señora Sutton." bati ng mga beastmen na katulong nila ng pumasok na ang mga ito.
Inakala ko na nakita nila sa mukha ko na may lahi akong Spanish kaya sila nagka-kastila. Ngunit, siguro ay spanish talaga ang mga katulong na'to o pina-customize lang talaga ng magulang ni Elaiza na dapat ganoon ang pagbati sa kanila o sa kahit sinong bisita. Ewan ko ba.
The Spanish greetings set aside and I'm so happy to see them not drunk. Medyo hindi na ako mahihirapan pang kausapin ang mga ito ngayon.
They seem to have won because they are carrying packed dishes like Elaiza told me earlier. I don't know why they buy viands and cook rice to eat, besides they can literally let the helpers to cook their viands.
"Oh! You have a visitor, my loveable daughter! Why didn't you tell us?" Her mother said when she had finally entered and directly greet Elaiza with biso-biso. It's one of the famous way of greetings or showing respect to the elders in this world, I didn't know they use to that culture. I thought they're beast? Or maybe they're just acting because I am here.
"Sana sinabi mo, para makapaghanda ako ng marami. Ayan tuloy, same as usual, I just bought food from fast food restaurants" dagdag pa nito.
Sa nakikita ko mukhang mababait naman ang mga 'to, maybe it's just in the prologue.
Ibinigay nito ang mga dala-dala nila sa katulong at agad na umupo sa sofa, habang ang ama naman ni Elaiza ay agad na pumunta sa isang pintuan sa likod ng hagdanan, matatanaw ko kasi mula rito at sigurado akong patungo ito sa basement o may kung ano.
"So, anak ipakilala mo naman ang bisita mo" sambit ng Ina nito.
"Uhm, he's Mr. Madigan, my teacher" malinaw na sagot naman ni Elaiza ng diretsahan.
"Oh—really? How are you related to Mr. Maximo Madigan?"
The question she left made me feel uneasy and the fear as well as the trepidatious literally swallowed me up.
Why do they know this person? Why they know my Grandfather? Sino ba talaga si Lolo? Bakit maraming nakakilala sa kaniya?
Because of that question, I was more eager to find out who my grandfather really was behind the scenes.
