Cruel Fate "Forbidden Power"

MDFA: Chapter Ten

Meeting

I yawn. Naiinis na ko rito sa head master na toh. Ang daming satsat, may pa introduction pa. Can he just state what he wants?

"Can you spill it" I commanded with my boring tone. I heard him laugh. An elegant laught.  Naramdaman ko rin Ang pag siko sa akin Ni Chloris. She's now fine.

"Short tempered huh?" Fuck him. Bigla siyang tumikhim at inaayos Ang sleeves NG coat Niya.

"Mr. Steven. Please proceed" I heard aquariuos demand. Wait? May Steven din akong nakilala last two days? Napansin at ni Chloris Ang uneasiness ko.

"Mr. Steven is Alex dad" she answer. She can read mind. I roll my eyes mentally. Sino ba si Alex rito? They are ten princes. Damn.

"There" she pointed at a guy the Morena guy with a yellowish eyes.  Oh. He's Alex?

"I know I'm handsome girls" he explained. Asshole.

He laugh so loud that's why he got all of the attention.

"Should I proceed?" Tanong Ni HM. Mukhang natauhan Naman si Alex dahil agad niyang pinigil Ang pagtawa Nita. Pero lumolobo Ang pisngi Nita kakapagil. C'mon. He's damn cute in that way.

"In the next five days. All of you will going to a mission" HM state.

What?! Mission?!

"Biglaang Naman ata?" Tanong Ni Keith. Napasangayon sa kaniya Ang iba.

"What's the mission?" Biglaang singit Ni usok.

"All of you are going to Rhodes"

----

"Sa Rhodes?" Nagrereklamo pa Rin si clement ngayon. Nandito na kami sa cafeteria nag uusap usap.

"Ayokong pumunta!" Alex shout. Nakakarindi sila.

"We are going there. All of us to get that freaking medallions" smoke said with his authority voice. Hindi na ko nakinig kanina at umalis NG malaman ko Ang pakay niya. Kaya Hindi ko Alam Ang full details.

"Rhodes is one of the biggest town here.." he started "Mahihirapan tayo. But good thing na marami tayu. Ang mahirap Lang is..." He hang her words. "We don't know the exact figure of medallions. We don't know what's with it." He said. I heard my companion groan. Like damn.

"So how would we find it? And.. medallions? With fucking 'S' it means. Hindi lang Isa?" Tanong ko. And it makes them quite.

"May iniwang hint si Mr. Steven sa atin" Alex suddenly pop up. "Someone is waiting. Serve your energy.  Between twenty nine to thirty one. It's yin yang"

---

Masyadong matalinhaga Ang mga salita. I don't even have a clue what the fuck is that. I'm staring at the ceiling. I can't sleep.

Someone is waiting. Serve your energy.

Means? May naka-reserve na sa Amin? We just need to wait for them? Right? Or...? Damn it. My head is aching. Serve your fvcking energy. This is so hard

Then.. between twenty nine and thirty

I don't get it? Is it a number? Or.. there is something on it. Damn.

I decided to go out even though it's really late. I'm wearing my typical outfit at night a freaking sando and pajama. It's already one in the morning. Paglabas ko sa pasilyo. It's dark. Only the dimming light can see. Usual sound at night. It's relaxing. Instead of going downstairs. I'll go upstairs.

Nasa rooftop na ako. Hindi Alo lumapit sa railing dahil Alam ko na Ang mangyayari. Instead I'll go to the little Nipa beside me. There's a freaking bed and a couch?

Bakit may ganiyan rito?

"What are you doing here?" Napatigil ako sa pag upo NG may marinig akong boses. Smoke.

"Nothing" I said coldly. I heard him chuckled. Crazy asshole.

"Your scoffing me again" oh. I forgeot. He can read minds. Damn him..

"You can lock it" napalingon ako sa sinabi Niya. His wearing a sando and a... Short?

"How" I ask.

"Secret.." damn him. Magsasabi NG paraan tapos isisikreto.

"Bakit pala... May ganito rito?" Alanganin Kong tanong.

Napahinto siya. Mali at Ang natanong ko? Pero anong Mali?

"It makes me... Relax in this setup" sagot nito. Parang nag sisinguling siya. " I love the sky. The clouds. The stars. Kaya naisipan Kong maglagay NG ganitong set up rito" pag papatuloy Niya. Ow...Kay...

Humiga ako sa Kama. Kitang Kita ko Ang langit kahit na may kulambo. Manipis Lang kasi ito. Ang daming stars ngayon.

I raise my hand as if I can touch the sky. They are beautiful.

Constellation. Luxon. Siya agad Ang naisip ko.  Nahagawakan Nita Kaya ang mga stars? Yung mga bala ba NG kakaibang baril Nita is.. literal na star? I wonder.

"Do you like the view?" Naputol Ako sa pag iisip ng marinig Ang boses niya. Napalingon ako. He's sitting at the couch. Staring at me.

I just nod at him.

Hinubad niya Ang suot niyang coat at lumapit sakin. Wait. Napaupo ako.

"Hindi ka ba nilalamig?" Tanong niya. Saka itinaklob Ang coat sa likod ko. Oh, I forgot. Naka sando nga Lang pala ako.

Pumunta ulit siya sa couch at humiga roon. I can sense that he is looking at me.

"Stop staring" I said coldy. I heard him chuckled.

"About the mission..." Napalingon ako NG bangtin niya Ang salitang iyon. "Are you scared?"

"No" I answer. Ano bang dapat Kong ikatakot? I already lost my boyfriend and best friend. Nothing to be scared.

"So... You have boyfriend" what the?

"Can you stop reading my mind! You're invading my privacy!" Asik ko. He really don't know the meaning of privacy.

"You.. know your quite impressive" like I care? Then.. he chuckled again. Damn! Paano ba mag lock NG mind?

"Do you wanna know how?" There he is again... Reading my fvcking mind. I shout my mind. I focus myself to the stars above.

Kier... Maybe you are there, In heaven. Please take care of my Krista. I hope you are fine there. Don't worry I can handle myself here.

Then, a single tears escape. Oh, I'm not numb. Great.

"Maybe, you can go to sleep"
