"Putangina..." bulong pa ulit ni Yanna sa sobrang sakit.
Matthew sit on the side of the bed and get Yanna's right leg and put it on his lap and massage it gently for her while Yanna was still lying on the bed saying bad words to ease her pain.
Matthew smiled while looking at her and put his hand above her hurt leg. Yanna closed her eyes as the coldness of Matthew's power soothens her and washed her pain away.
Matteo smiled looking at them.
"You need to be careful. What if I am not around, your leg might get a big hump."
Tumikhhim si Yanna at naiilang na binawi ang binti.
"It won't happen if you are not around." bulong niya.
Matthew chuckled.
"Why?"
"W-what do you mean why? Of course–of... course..." natahimik si Yanna nang wala siyang masabi.
"Anyway, now that we are all fine. We can leave now."
Matthew can't himself but to laugh.
"You still didn't change. Your silliness still makes me laugh."
Hindi sumagot si Yanna nang mapagtanto niya ang sinabi niya.
Anong klaseng excuse ba yon? aniya sa sarili habang nakayuko na napakagat-labi.
"You wanted to came here to heal me but because you two are also sick, you ended up in the mountain, am I right?"
"Yes–I mean no! Why would we come here? And also we were not sick." sabi ni Yanna saka sinulyapan pa si Matteo.
"So you came in that mountain by yourself?"
"No." mabilis na sagot ni Yanna.
Ngumisi si Matthew saka inilapit ang mukha kay Yanna at tinitigan ng diretso sa mga mata. Nagulat naman si Yanna at bahagyang umatras habang nakakagat sa kanyang pang-ibabang labi habang tinitigan iyon ni Matthew.
"You always bit your lower lip when you lie or you are not comfortable." nakangising bulong ni Matthew na kinalaki ng mga mata ni Yanna.
Nakangising inilayo ni Matthew ang mukha kay Yanna at hinawakan sa kamay si Yanna.
"You cannot fool me anymore. You have no idea that longing for someone can kill a person's soul even I live. Now that I am alive again, I will not let you go." seryoso ang mukha na sabi ni Matthew sa kanya saka tumayo.
He stretched his hand and use his power to get the sword of Dioscora that was on the table.
Yanna quickly bowed her head and bit her lip when Matthew stared at the sword and turned at her.
"There is only one person that could summon this sword even how far it is. She can cast perfect spells, even making me fell in love with her."
Inis na tumungo si Yanna.
"I don't–" natigilan siya nang titigan siya ni Matthew saka yumuko ulit.
"... know what you are saying." patuloy niya sa sinabi niya.
Matthew smiled and stepped in front of her.
"It's okay. You don't know her. She is my wife." Matthew teased Yanna and gave her the sword.
Inis na bumuga ng hangin si Yanna. She knew that Matthew is teasing her. He may said that she doesn't know his wife but for her the little word 'is' annoyed her because she knows it was for her.
