76 Chapter 76 (1/2)
”SLAP!” a clear sound resonated in the room and with it, i felt the stinging of my left cheek. Gone were the unwanted flesh before and I took it hard on my muscled jaw.
Though my parents didn't ask how I transformed from a lump of fat to a macho man in just a day, I was aware that they'd checked what I brought out from our pill store. A body molding pill.
”OUCH!” i cussed inside and let the expression show outside. Though there was actually no pain but i needed to act the part and let a palm print mar the flawlessness of my face.
If only i had not the memory of this woman's care on the foolish child that they bore, she would have already painted the walls in a gory mess.
”You dare speak to me those vile words! Take it BACK!” Thea, my good mother, exclaimed.
There were tears clinging in her eyes and i knew that it would only took a single word from me and all of them shall fall in chorus.
So i thought of how to spare her feelings and decided to make an exception this time. Even for me, kindness was definitely not a stranger.
I would even vow before all gods and immortals, that i was an advocate of world peace if not the best bringer of all that was naturally good and beautiful. So i said to my mother,
”It's true. I am not your son. And i am also Neon. I am both.” I shook my head in a very dramatic way with these words before i looked at my mother in the eyes.
I was sure that she got the message clearly with how pure and innocent i acted this time around.
And about my dolt of a father,
FUCK HIM!
He was never that pleasing to look at in the first place. Unlike this mother of mine who stood above all women in this world. May it be beauty or wit; few can be her match.
Tsk. Tsk.
If only she was still a maiden, then it would have been perfect. It was at this time that i took a swift peek at my father and mused at how lucky this man was in this life. The heavens truly can be blind at times.
”What do you mean?” asked Thea. At least she got some patience on her this time and wasn't that impulsive to hit me a second slap.
Well if she did, i wouldn't mind teaching her a valuable lesson and take her right in front of her husband.
The thought might have been disgusting for an embodiment of purity such as myself but i could always summon a demon to do the deed. That would have been a scene worth watching.
”I have come from the beyond this reality, Thea.” i started and cast away the past formality that held us.
”When i descended in this world, i have sought for a worthy body for my divinity. And so...” said i next and stopped abruptly. These pair were no fools and didn't need me feeding them all the way.
But in case they were still having doubts about my words, i put some show of strength just in case. Maybe i was wrong and they were indeed as pitiful as they looked.
”BANG!” i lent out a tiny fraction of my power.
”AHHHHHHHHH!”
”OHHHHHHHHH!” both tried to fight it but it gave them no respite.
