I AM THE LOST SON (ON HOLD)

CHAPTER 5: THE LOST SON 1

CHAPTER 5: THE LOST SON 1.

∆.

The chapter will be so long if I'd put everything here so the title will be divided into two chapters. (or three, it actually depends)

Caspian.

"Oh boys, mind going inside, I've been waiting for you to come!" He giggles.

Nagtinginan kami ni Nixon bago pumasok. His room is still nice, nothing changed. It smells nice, it's clean, and it is spacious.

"Kanina pa ba kayo roon?" Caspian asked as we sat on one of the two sofa here.

Me and Nixon once again looked at each other until he decided to answer.

"No, sakto lang 'yong pag labas mo at pag dating namin," Nixon uttered. He lied.

I roamed my eyes in every corner of this room until I've realised something. 'Di ba may kausap siya kanina? Saan iyon napunta?

"Uhm, ang laki po ng kwarto niyo. Mag-isa lang po ba kayo rito palagi?" Hindi ko na napigilan ang sarili ko sa pagtanong.

Tiningnan naman ako ni Nixon ngunit walang emosyon ang mukha nito. Kahit ang mata niya ay nanatiling blangko.

"Uhm, yes and no!" He stopped.

"Sometimes, I'm with some people here before we proceed to the meeting room, ay pinapapunta ko muna sila rito. To have a little talk before talking about something important and such," he smiled.

I nod.

But... Argh.

"Bakit mo pala kami pinatawag?" Nixon asked.

Huh? Pinatawag din siya? Ibig sabihin ba si Matt din ang tumawag sakanya? Akala ko may itatanong siya kaya niya ako sinamahan? Hays.

"About that, wait let me sit first!" He then sat on his business chair and placed his arms in the table.

"I want you two to be each-other's training partner."

Tama ba ang rinig ko? Training? Training partner?

"Kailan ang simula?" Nixon voiced out.

"Hmmm, tomorrow after lunch,"

Bakit parang ang casual lang nilang pag-usapan ang ganitong bagay? Does everyone has a training partner? Bakit wala siya?

"I'm actually shocked that you agreed to do this Nixon! You never agreed to anybody aside from Tristan!" Caspian looked at me after looking at Nixon.

His eyes became colder.

"That's because Tristan is new here, and he only found out his Moreaux yesterday. Besides, you've been partnering me with people who's been here for years already and they're capable of doing it themselves. Tristan holds a speacial power. He's special..." He looked at me after that.

There's a mirror above him which where I saw my face. It is as red a tomato, and my eyes are filled with questions I cannot answer yet, and cannot answer all by myself.

I didn't know what happen next after that, ang alam ko lang ay kasalukuyan kaming nag l-lakad ni Nixon at malapit na kami sa pinto kung saan ang dining area.

"Ahm, Nixon!" I mumbled.

"Hmmm?" He looked at me.

"Mauna kana, may c-check lang ako! Same lang tayo ng order!" I smiled at him.

He nods continuously as he started to walk, hindi ako umalis hanggang naka-pasok siya sa pinto. I roamed my eyes and started walking, no, it's more like running towards a familiar building. Alam ko na ang daan papunta roon galing sa dining room kaya't ayos lang sa akin na mag-isa.
