Her Eternity

[Chapter 46: Reminiscing the Past]

*Hugerson's Point of View

Sinarado ko naman agad yung librong binabasa ko nang makarinig ako ng pagbukas ng pinto dito sa hangout place namin. Iniluwa naman doon si Zace na pumasok na mag-isa na naging dahilan naman para mapakunot ang noo ko.

"Himala, hindi mo kasama si Aphrodite."Axe approached him and suddenly put his arm across his shoulder.

Marahas namang inalis 'yon ni Zace at tinignan siya ng masama, bago maglakad papunta dito at sabay din na umupo.

I raised a brow.

"Where's Aphrodite?"I asked that made him to look at me.

"Yeah, where's your girlfriend?"Dagdag pa nina Levi at Vann na parehas din na tinitignan si Zace nang makaupo siya sa tabi ko.

"She's in her room sleeping."He answered as he eventually yawned. Mas lalo namang tumaas ang kilay ko nang makita ko 'yon.

"Don't tell me you stayed up all night watching her sleep?"Ngumisi naman sina Axe at Rye sa tabi ko nang marinig nila yung sinabi ko kay Zace.

"Actually no, Hue. I think he stayed up all night with those folders, again. Right, Zace?"I suddenly furrowed my forehead the moment I heard what Vann said.

Napalihis naman ako nang atensyon pabalik kay Zace na ngayon ay halos nakapikit na at hinihilot pa yung sentido niya. I place my book above the table in front of us and eventually crossed my arms.

"You already confirmed everything. You even heard personally that both of them have a connection with her."I said to Zace, despite his eyes are closed.

Dahil naman sa sinabi ko ay agad siyang napamulat at blangkong napatingin sa akin.

"That's the point."Nagkatinginan naman kaming lima nang marinig ang sinabi niya.

"What's the real connection between Vidia and Aphrodite? How did the incident from 10 years ago happened?"I almost frankly rolled my eyes the moment we heard what he just said.

Napasandal naman ako sa kinauupuan ko at saka taas-kilay siyang tinignan.

"Zace, you sounded like an investigator, not a worried boyfriend."I scoffed that made him stared at me.

Sabay-sabay naman na nagtawanan sila Vann nang marinig nila ang sinabi ko. Lalo na si Axe na kulang nalang ay magpagulong-gulong sa sahig.

I mentally rolled my eyes.

"Why don't you ask her, anyway? Tutal naman nandito na siya."Levi suggested that made Zace immediately shook his head as answer.

Napakunot ang noo ko.

"You don't want to ask her again, do you?"I assumed that made him nodded.

"I might trigger her."He worriedly said and lowered down his head as he messed up with his hair.

"Right, she has a trauma about what happened."Rye said as he saw how Zace acted.

"But still, you want to know, right?"Levi and Vann both asked at the same time. Napatingin naman sa kanilang dalawa si Zace na naging dahilan naman na mapailing ako.

He does want to know.

"Zace's right, though. How did the incident started, anyway?"Axe curiously asked.

"It started when I was being trained."

Sabay naman kaming nagkatinginang lahat sa may bandang pinto nang marinig namin 'yon.
