The Sinners Scar

CHAPTER 60

ARLVENA ZERIDA TURLEN

Naiiyak na tinignan ko ang dalawang kasamahan ko. Napasabunot na ako ng buhok dahil sa pagkainis. Halos magwala na ako sa loob-loob ko buti nalang ay nakalma ko pa ang sarili ko.

Imbes na makipaglaban sila sa batang miyembro ng Sinnerellian. Nakikipag-usap at tawanan pa sila rito habang ako ay nakatanga lang at 'di makapaniwalang tumingin sa kanila.

Ang seryoso ng tensiyon sa pagitan namin kanina tapos ngayon? Nag-uusap sila na para bang magkakatropa silang tatlo.

Si Verto pa mismo ang nagpasimula. Masamang impluwensiya sila sa bata. Halos parang katulad lang ng batang ito si Herkus.

Ano nga ulit pangalan niya? Eres, the pride?

Napapadyak ako dahil sa inis. Hindi ba nila ako nakikita? Kanina pa ako nakatayo sa likod nila pero kahit isa sa kanila hindi ako pinansin! Maiiyak na talaga ako! Hindi nakakatuwa ah! Nasasaktan damdamin ko mga bullshit sila!

Inis na lumapit ako sa kanila at hinila sa kwelyo si Verto. Napayuko siya at gulat na napatingin siya sa'kin. Alam kong maliit ako pero huwag niyang ipahalata masyado.

"Are you fucking insane?! This kid is our opponent and yet.. and yet you two are talking to him like the three of you are friends! Are you even taking this battle seriously?! You're really testing my patience huh?!" Galit kong wika.

I don't have any time for jokes. This is battle, there's no place for jokes. I'm taking seriously this war because our future depends on it.

"Young lady, do you hate me?" Rinig kong sabi ng isang maliit na boses. Unti-unti akong napatingin sa aking likod.

I raised my eyebrows. "Yes. So what if I hate you? Do you really even know us? We are your enemies and enemies are fighting each other." I seriously said. I saw how his face changed to a sad face.

"I don't like war. I don't like fighting. I just want to have some fun with my new friends. I want to play with them and talk with them. Is it bad?" He asked. My forehead creased.

Galing siya sa sinaunang panahon pero sanay na sanay siya sa wikang ingles?

"Yes. It's bad to have friends with enemy. Do you understand now? Even if you're a child, I don't give a fuck about it. This is war and I take this war seriously. Our fate depends on it and the future of this world depends on this war."

I said with full of determination. He looked amusingly at me. "I never fought a person. I never hurt a person even if they are my enemy. I make friends with them. I want to have some new friends who will never leave me." He said.

I suddenly laughed at what he said. "You're a member of Sinnerellian yet you never hurt a person? Then why are you here? How did you become a member of Sinnerellian?" I asked.

The emotion of his eyes suddenly blanked. I suddenly saw no color on his eyes. "Why am I here? Bakit nga ba ako nandito ngayon? Ah, I remember na.." he suddenly talked like a robot.

Takang tinignan ko ang kaniyang pagkikilos. Parang hindi na bata ang kausap ko ngayon.

"Is it bad to have a new friends? Is it bad to be a happy person again once in life? Can I return the time where everything is alright. Where she's still alive and with us? Is it bad to wish something that I know that will never be granted." he asked then laughed weakly.
