Lunar Trifecta

Chapter 4

Deimos flew beyond the clouds just to reach the Moon Castle of the Moon Goddess.

Deimos reached the gate. The Moon Goddess' servant opened it just for him. As soon as he entered, a lot of moon fairy greeted him but he couldn't greet back because of annoyance who's occupying him.

Deimos entered the Goddess' room.

"Why are you here? The eclipse is starting." The Goddess said as she sipped a wine that Dionysus gave her as a present.

"Palitan mo nga 'yung bungangerang 'yon." Deimos told the Goddess irritatingly.

Selene smiled. "Why would I? I picked her and I like her."

"And I don't like what you picked and I hate what you like. You should let the fate choose a woman!" He affrmed.

Selene placed her wine glass on her gold table. "If fate will choose, that would be the greatest betrayal."

"And why is that huh?" Namewang si Deimos. Nawawalan na siya ng pasensya, nahahalata iyon ng Diyosa pero wala itong pakialam sakanya.

"Cause fate would choose her." Selene smiled. "The Moon will choose her."

"So now, you're a horoscope huh?" Deimos sarcastically told her.

Selene chuckled. "Kaya siguro ayaw mo sakanya dahil nahuhulog kana."

Deimos acted like he was disgusted with a thought. He would never fall in love with a teen. It's too lame for him. His age was beyond history and that teen exist for only fifteen years. Wait? Deimos wanted to hit himself for thinking about his age and her age.

"It's ironically enough that I'm over and I'm so fucking done." He sighed violently. "I'm really done with her. She's too talkative, she keeps poking my arm, keep calling me names and whatsoever. Those girls who's with me before, never did that to me!"

"Then it's a new experience. Malay mo kayo." Sabi ng Diyosa.

Sarkastikong ngumiti si Deimos to let the Goddess saw that he's almost done with her too.

"Malay mo mamatay ka na rin." Deimos replied casually that made Selene laughed.

"I won't die until you've got yourself out from the curse."

Deimos rolled his eyes because of that lame tragic curse he had.

"Whatever. Just fucking pretty please. Let her be back on her house." Deimos pleaded.

Selene smiled. "Nope. Not. Never. It won't happen."

"Fuck it!" Deimos cursed.

Selene flipped her hair with elegance. "Yeah, fuck it."

Deimos sighed. The Eclipse is starting and he wonder if Sunna had a thought that the moon she adores is just a chair for her to sit at. Or maybe he didn't have that little thought cause she's dumb.

"Selene." Deimos called the Moon Goddess by her name.

With that, Selene knows that somethings budging with the Guardian's head.

"Hmmm?" The Goddess hummed with brilliancy beauty.

"How can you say that you're falling in love?"

With Deimos words, Selene smiled like a friend who's with him in times he couldn't understand what he should be understanding in the first place.

"You're falling in love with Sunna Isabela?"

Sunna Isabela. Tila isa 'yong mamahaling bagay na tumatak sa utak niya. Her name was good.

Deimos shook his head. "Mmm, not. I'm just asking but you're giving it a meaning, you prick Goddess."

Selene chuckled. "Hai, what a shameless asshole Guardian of the Moon who couldn't even find himself a wife. Anyways, what was the question again?"

"How can you say you're falling in love." Deimos repeated himself.

"In love." A sweet smile appeared on the Goddess' lips. "For me. This is what I observed with my consort."

Deimos nodded and wait for the goddess words.

"If you're giving something to her without hesitation. If you're making every impossible possible just for her to be happy and lastly, If you would rather choose her than anything."

"I said, in love only." Deimos stated. Deimos couldn't find a word 'love' to those phrases the goddess just said, pakiramdam niya, iba ang pagmamahal sakanya. Yung pagmamahal na higit pa sa ninanais niya ngunit hindi niya mapaliwanag kung ano.

"That is love, Deimos. It's love. Love can't be taken away but sometimes Love can be a memory." Selene smiled.

Without a word. Deimos leave the Goddess.

Selene smiled and sipped on her drink. "Just admit and let me judge the purity of your heart, Deimos. You're free from my curse."

Moon Goddess Selene didn't told about the admitting and judging the purity of love because Selene wanted Deimos to know and to figure out what love is, she wanted Deimos to feel those love without being told he's in love.
