The breezy night wind suddenly rushed along the woods as two people, holding each other's hands walked through. Napapikit naman si Aphrodite nang mangyari 'yon, na naging dahilan naman para mapangiti sa kaniya si Zackyro at pagmasdan siya.

Bumaling naman agad ang atensyon ni Aphrodite nang biglang higpitan ni Zackyro ang paghawak niya sa kamay niya.

She reached out to look how he tightened his grip and eventually smile so sweetly before looking back straight in his eyes.

Nagtama ang mata nila na ikinatawa nila ng mahina. They unknowingly tiptoed until they finally feel each other's breathing, to the point they even close their eyes. Zackyro slowly cupped her face the moment it happened, and was about to meet her lips, not until someone interrupted them.


"Sabi na nga ba may gagawin kayo, eh."


Napapikit naman ng mariin si Zackyro habang nakahawak parin sa pisngi ni Aphrodite nang bigla nilang marinig ang boses ni Axellous. It made them both look towards the direction of where he is, and saw that the latter is currently smirking at them.


"Axe."Zackyro warned.



Axellous on the other hand unconsciously raised both of his arms as a surrender the moment he heard his voice.


Tumawa naman ulit si Axellous at sabay na umiling, bago magsalita.

"Don't blame me. Hindi ko naman kasalanan na nawawala nalang kayo bigla na parang mga bula. Gusto lang kayo ipahanap ni Crimson sa akin."Axellous blurted out while he lean on to the tree beside him and crossed out his arms.


Sandali namang nanliit ang mga mata niya nang muli niyang tignan yung dalawa at mas lalong lumaki ang ngisi niya.


He snapped his fingers out of nowhere.

"Bakit, may gagawin talaga kayo 'no? Zackyro naman! Bakit sa gub—ARAY!"


"Axe, I said call them, not to have a chat with them."


Sabay-sabay naman silang napatingon sa likod ni Axellous nang bigla nilang marinig ang boses na 'yon na nanggaling kay Crimson. He directly look at Axellous who's currently caressing the back of his head, where he suddenly hit him.


Ngumuso naman siya bago muling bumalik sa pagkakasandal sa puno.

"Mom's looking for the both of you, Aphrodite."

Nagkatinginan naman sina Zackyro at Aphrodite nang marinig ang sinabi ni Crimson at sabay na tinignan siya na nakakunot ang noo.


"And why?"Aphrodite raised a brow.


Crimson immediately shrugs before taking a turn and let them face his back. Pinanuod naman nila kung paano mawala sa paningin nila ang presensya niya bago muling magkatinginan.

"Let's just go back."Aphrodite smiled and held Zackyro's hand who seemed to be longing for a kiss.


Nang mapansin naman 'yon ni Axellous ay bigla siyang tumawa ng mahina at sabay na inakbayan ang kaibigan para bumulong.


"Makaka-score ka rin."


The moment he heard what he said, he couldn't helped but to smack him in the head while holding Aphrodite's hand. The latter who witnessed it just simply shook her head in amusement as they reached the doric column to go back inside.


Ngumuso naman ulit si Axellous nang mangyari 'yon bago manguna sa paglalakad.


"Tsk."Zackyro silently hissed.
