The Deceived Ones

Chapter 6

Clyde's POV

I was literally shocked on what Rynna said a while ago. Kung ako ang nasa posisyon ni Sam, siguro magagalit din ako sa taong iyon. Dahil sa loob ng ilang taon na paninirahan ko dito sa mundo, ay walang nagsabi na may kapatid ako at hindi ko tunay na ina ang kasama ng ama ko ngayon. It must be really painful especially on Rynna's side.

Naiintindihan ko naman ang point ni Sam, pero hindi naman siguro tama na ibintang niya ang lahat sa kaibigan niya. I may not know them that well but the way Rynna's eyes glisten in pain while Sam was saying those words to her was enough evidence that she truly cares for her friends.

Sa kabilang banda naman, naiintindihan ko din ang pinupunto ni Rynna. Kasi kahit ako, pagmay nalaman akong ganon na tungkol sa kaibigan ko ay malamang sa malamang ay ililihim ko din ito. Kasi, sino ba ako para manghimasok sa buhay ng iba? Ayaw ko kasi na sa ibang tao manggangaling ang eksplenasyon, gusto ko sa mga magulang ko o ung mga taong sangkot sa isang gulo or chismis.

Nasasaktan ako para kay Rynna kasi siya na nga ang nagmamagandang loob pero in the end, siya ang mukhang mali. May point din si Sealtiel kanina, oo at hindi naisip ni Rynna ang mararamdaman ni Sam pero hindi rin naman naisip ni Sam ang mararamdaman ng kaibigan niya. Rynna carried all the burden on her shoulders. She hid everything. Maybe because she doesn't want her friends to be sad and gloomy that's why she did that. But she's a Montero after all. No one knows what's happening in a Montero's brain or how they think.

"Penny for your thoughts" speaking of the devil. "I know you're thinking about what happened earlier. I want to hear your thought about it though" I gave her a curious glance.

"Well, I think you did the right thing but ni minsan ay sumagi ba sa isip mo ang mararamdaman niya once na malaman niya ang katotohanan?" I'm really curious. I want to know her side before I make conclusions.

"Oo, but I have to do it. It really isn't my cup of tea to meddle in their family affair. Alam kong may nasaktan ako but I won't ask for an apology"

"May I ask why?" Grrr. This girl is making me so damn curious.

"Because I did what is right. Ayaw ko kasi na sakin mismo manggaling ang paliwanag tungkol sa magulong buhay ng mga Akari. Gusto ko manggaling ang eksplenasyon mula sa bibig ng mga magulang nila. Don't worry, I'm not gonna make you side with me"

"Why not" again, this girl is really making me interested in her.

"Because every people has their own opinions and judgements. And besides, people usually let their anger reign over their senses that's why they tend to do stupid things even though how smart and rational they are. Once your emotion gets the best of you, you'll be able to hurt others as well" literal na napanganga ako sa kaniya. Ito ba ang dahilan kung bakit nagustuhan siya ni Blue? Oo, alam ko na may pagtingin ang kaibigan ko sa babaeng ito. And I don't blame him for that.

"I-i see" napaiwas ako ng tingin. I don't know what's in her eyes that is making me shaking. Her eyes is like a quick sand, once your eyes met hers, you won't be able to look away. Her eyes are really hypnotising. And I'm sure, once Blue see us in this position he'll be so freaking jealous!

"Who?" napahinto ako sa pag-iisip nang magsalita ang katabi ko. "Sino ang magseselos?"

"H-ha?" masyado bang napalakas ang sabi ko nun?

"Who's gonna be jealous?" ulit nito.

"Ahh w-wala" muli akong napaiwas ng tingin. Natatakot ako na baka mabasa niya ang laman ng isip ko through my eyes.

"What are you two doing?" napalingon kami ni Rynna sa likuran namin.

"We're just talking... And I wanna do the same with you" malamig na saad ng katabi ko. Nakita kong napalunok si Veiko.
