*Trixie's Point of View

I quickly take a quick glimpse of myself in the mirror before getting my baggage and make myself outside my room. Reaching out my phone in my pocket, I immediately take a step sideward as I felt something or someone rather, coming over.

"Good morning, Trixie!"I mentally rolled my eyes the moment Axe rushingly passed by with his bandana on his hand and his baggage alongside on the other bare.

"Morning, Axe."I bluntly said.

Agad naman akong napalingon pagkatapos kong batiin si Axe, nang biglang sumulpot si Vi sa gilid ko na dala-dala na rin yung mga gamit niya.

I unconsciously greet her with a smile, as she did likewise.

"Where's Zace?"I suddenly asked her about her brother that made her to eventually furrowed her forehead and bring out her phone.

Seriously, don't tell me he's still at it.


"Kuya?"Bumalik naman ulit ang atensyon ko kay Vi nang marinig ko siyang kausap niya yung kapatid niya sa phone.

Wala namang sa oras na napairap nalang ako dahil sa dalawang 'to.

Eventually, we just found ourselves at the hidden backfield of the Alum where our private jet is waiting, and so are the others waving back at us.

Kinuha naman agad ng ilang tauhan ng Alum yung gamit naming dalawa ni Vi nang makarating kami sa kinaroroonan nila.

Treck on the other hand suddenly approach me and gave me my handbag, as I told him to hold it for a moment after I went from my room and get all my things, earlier.


"Man, uptil now he's even late?"Rye and Axe both frowned as they noticed that Zace is still not here.

"Come on! The manor is waiting!"Axe eventually grunted in irritation. Wala naman akong ibang nagawa kundi mapairap at mapailing nalang dahil sa asal niya.

The sunlight suddenly hit my face that made me to wear my sunglasses, as I gradually fan myself with my hand and eventually look at the time, as well. 8:30 AM.

I mentally rolled my eyes. God, Zace!


"Zace!"

Agad akong napatingin sa harapan nang marinig kong tawagin ni Vi ang kaisa-isang taong kahit kailan ay late sa buhay. I can't help but to immediately raised an eyebrow at him as I watch how casually he walks right through here.

"Unbelievable, cousin."He straightly look at me with his cold eyes that just made me to raised an eyebrow more.

We share the same blood, Zace. That look doesn't bug me.


"Why are you late?"Vi scolded him again like a mother. Zace just simply kissed her forehead, instead of answering her question which made the latter pouted.

"Akala namin magpapaiwan ka eh."Azraell suddenly joked around and put his arm across his shoulder.

Napailing naman si Zace dahil sa sinabi niya at tinanggal ang pagkakaakbay ni Azraell sa kaniya. Eventually, Azraell ignored and quickly snapped his finger through the air.

"Okay, everyone's here! Let's go!"


As if it was a cue, the private jet's door automatically opened as we climbed, afterwards.

I can't help but to take a deep breath and smile as I calmly relax myself while sitting beside my brother who's sleeping soundly. It made me to reclined his chair and eventually put him a blanket and let him sleep on my shoulder.

"Rye, you know it's the 15th time that we're tied up with this game."Axe suddenly yawned while unconsciously waving the game controller in the air.

Agad naman akong napairap nang wala sa oras nang halos magtatatlong oras na silang naglalaro sa may video game area ng private jet na sinasakyan namin.

"Just one last game! I'm really going to beat you!"Rye on the other hand blurted out, once again.

Napaismid naman sa kaniya si Axe at binalik yung game controller sa tabi ng video game console na ginagamit nila.

"Bahala ka sa buhay mo, inaantok na ako."Axe grunted and eventually yawned before going towards the couch where Azraell is hanging out.

Walang pasintabi na humiga siya doon na ikinailing ko.

Bumalik naman ulit ang atensyon ko sa pagtingin sa labas ng jet at nagpakahalumbaba, bago sandaling bigyan ng pansin yung oras. 11:00 AM.

As far as I can remember, the ride will lasts for almost 12 hours, since we're all flying to Greece for a random escapade.

Nagkibit-balikat nalang ako bago sandaling binigyan ng pansin yung iba na halos tulog na dahil maaga kaming nagising kanina at si Zace nalang ang nakita kong tanging gising bukod pa sa akin.

I saw Vi leaning on to him as I searched for her.

Napabuntong-hininga naman agad ako nang wala sa oras nang mamalayan kong nakatitig na pala ako sa kanilang dalawa.

I just hope this somehow helps him.

Despite how irritated am I and how annoyed am I towards him, he's not just someone I couldn't simply don't mind.

For God's sake, he's my cousin and he's in love with the reigning heiress of the Zimas.



"He'll be fine, Trixie."Nawala naman ang atensyon ko kay Zace at biglang napalihis kay Treck na kakagising lang. He yawned the moment he woke up and took a quick glance towards Zace who's busy with his phone.

"Treck, he's Zace. You know this escapade can't prevent him from being busy."I blurted out raising my eyebrow, that made him eventually to pat my head.

"Which exactly why Aphrodite matches with him."He joked around and put his arm across my shoulder. Halos tumawa naman ako ng mahina nang marinig ko na naman yung palagi nilang sinasabi kung bakit ganyan si Zace.

I just eventually can't help but to lean on to his shoulder and sighed, afterwards.

Treck softly and carefully caressed my hair that made me slightly to close my eyes until I already found myself asleep.
