Summary: World is cruel, happiness will never last forever, people will eventually turn into specs of dust- Ares lost it after the death of his beloved Mother. Driven by pure hatred, he goes to Japan and live with the bastard father of his and his legal family just to fulfill his mother's wish and his very own vengeance. In there, he will attend a prestigious school where his fiancée that his father is talking about, studies. And there, he will eventually meet people who are bound to change him. [HoneyxOC] [Yaoi]
I never would've thought that I would meet a very despicable ma like him again. Not only did he show that smug face of his, he also had the nerve to bring a lot of troublesome men of his in the hospital. Fucking bastard! What the fuck does he think he's doing?!
"…you must be my son." The only thing I felt hearing the word 'son' was nothing more than disgust. I clutched at my pipe I have always used in fights tightly and grit my teeth to avoid from rampaging outside the room where my mom is currently resting on. No matter what kind of hatred I have for the man who decided to leave and come back when it's already too late, my Mom is much more important than anything else in this world. If I cause too much noise here then it will cause her stress… and stress is a no-no for Mom.
"You bastard… after 10 years of leaving us and not giving a fuck, you still have the balls to show your fucking face?! Disgusting! Do you think I'd let a filthy bastard like you get near Mom?! Well fuck you! Like I'd actually let you meet her!" all my ramblings caught the attention of doctors and patients alike. Some nurses started to whisper among themselves and looked at our direction. This is something that this man can't stand… too much unwanted attention. With my bad reputation, causing trouble with him will drag him along to my ruins. I don't care, I'm already down-to-earth to begin with.
For mom… even just for mom… I'd be a beast disguising as a white sheep in front of her. I had to protect her remaining life with happy memories. And meeting him is a very threatening presence to her very heart. I will never allow it.
"Don't block my way. Your mother is dying so I should at least listen to her last words. Also, I'm here to take you to Japan and attend a private school with the fiancée that was kind enough to accept you. In there you will live a happy life under my wing." The grip on my metallic weapon tightened. My nails dug through the skin on my palm, enough to break it and made it bleed. I lifted my pipe threateningly to show him my obvious refusal to his decisions and his very existence.
"I hate you… no. I LOATHE YOU. Why does it have to be you that mom loves? You are despicable, good-for-nothing bastard who left his family for money, a prick who left his child to take care of his dying wife while enjoying his life to his legal family. And now you expect me to accept your decisions and your presence here? FUCK YOU THEN!" his guards seemed to have had enough of my bad mouthing session and stepped forward with threatening looks. They all looked ready to stop me but do they really think that I'm just a big mouthed delinquent? That bastard… does he still think that the weak little brat 10 years ago is still the same? I'll show him the results of all those years filled with hatred.
"I don't want trouble." his threatening tone didn't match with his blank annoying face. But despite that warning, I hit the face of the nearest fuckboy of his that seemed to have been weak enough to fall on the ground and cry like a fucking girl. It was obvious that I don't give a fuck to what he says.
"My ears are dumbshit-proof." seeing that no matter what they do I won't listen so he sighed and he made a thumbs down which his was a sign for his men to get rid of me. We were all ready to start a brawl but the door on mom's room was opened and the doctor that has been taking care of her stepped out with a very unhappy look on his face.
"Stop. This is a hospital, not a place for gang fights. Also, it would be best if you go to your mother right now Ares. She has something important to tell you. You too Mr. Vagabond, she would really love to see you right now. Hurry though, time is precious." the way the doctor said it was very alarming. Without even asking any more question, I went inside the room that I had decorated with roses everywhere. The bastard and his fuckboys looked surprised at the scenery while here I am going towards mom who greeted me with a weak but heartwarming smile upon my entrance. My features automatically softened when I saw her.
"Mom… is there something wrong? The doctor said you wanted to talk to me." I asked gently as I took my seat right next to her bed. I took her thin pale hand and entwined her fingers with mine lovingly. Though it was cold like it always does, the barely felt pulse can be felt and it was definitely calming. How she tightened our hold almost brought me to the brink of tears.
"My angel… my sweet little angel… forgive me for causing you too much trouble. This mother of yours couldn't even give you a candy to make you happy like before." I shook my head and gave her a genuine smile. Not even once did I ever thought of her being any trouble to me.
"Seriously mom, I'm not a kid that needs someone to pamper me. And don't say that you are trouble, I enjoy caring for you." she used her other hand to caress my cheek slowly. Why is she acting so weird? I have a bad feeling of this.
"My little angel… it's time for you to let me go. Ares, thank you for loving me even though I'm such an incompetent mother. All these years, I have never been lonely with you by my side."
"Don't joke like that Mom! Don't sound like you are going to fade away! Never in my life had I ever thought of you disappearing, since you are the one that completed it! Are you worried about the hospital bills?! I could find another job! Just please! I beg of you! Don't leave me…" tears finally dripped from my eyes from thinking that the only person who smile genuinely at me will be taken away from my reach. This dreadful feeling made me want to puke, it felt suffocating. I knew for a fact… that once she disappears, my world will be torn apart.
"Ares, go with your father. Though he left us for a long time, he isn't the man you think he is. I'm sure that your life will be good with him by your side." I shook my head in refusal of her declaration.
"No! I'd rather disappear along with you! His life is filled with nothing but money and power! And also, didn't I promise you that I'd open up a sweets shop with you once everything is all done? If only you could just wait for me then I'll—! I'll—!"
"I love you Ares. Remember that I will always be watching over you like how you did all throughout these years. Thank you for giving me… such a fulfilling life!" a tear rolled on her pale cheeks as she made such a beautiful yet sad smile. At that time, I was sure that smile was for me and only me.
"Mom, I love you too! So please—!" before I could even reason, the heart monitor changed the sound of beeping into a continuous one. The doctor pushed me away and immediately checked on mom and shouted to the nurses. They tried to revive her… but they then stopped and spoke something my ears refused to hear. I went back to my mother's side and held her hand. Did it always feel this cold?
…I already knew the answer…
This is the first time in my life that I screamed so loud. Her once gentle hand slipped from my hold and plopped lifelessly on her side. Everything in my mind was in chaos, the nearest things I could get hold of was smashed and thrown to the wall and to the people who tried to get near me and my mother.
'She's gone…'
'The only person who understood me is dead…'
'Why mom? Why did you go to heaven and leave me here? You know that place is never open for the likes of me!'
'Why… did you leave me in this cruel world..?'
"Get a hold of yourself." A strong impact on my stomach sent me mercilessly to fall and crash to the flowers placed on the ground. The doctor immediately took this as an opportunity to inject me that made me numb all over.
"…as per your Mother's wish, I will bring you with me to Japan and you will attend school where your fiancée is studying. Don't worry, she will be cremated and will be brought to you once you settled with my family. You will be happy since you will finally be able to feel a very luxurious life." He left the room and ordered his men to pick me up and drag me to wherever hell he is going to put me on.
I will never forgive him.
Even though it was one of my mom's final request, I will never erase this unending hatred towards the man who forsaken my mother. But he, too, will also die. So while it is yet to happen, I will endure all these suffering and curse him for the rest of his life.
I'm sorry mom, I'll have to cry in my good-for-nothing father's death too. Only that I will cry in pure ecstasy and laugh on top of his grave.
And that will truly be the happiest day in my entire life.
