✨23-Ananzee✨

Did he really just walk past us?! Ano naman kaya ang problema ng lalaking iyon? His lack of concern makes me feel unjustly irritated.

But how can I know if I'm not gonna ask him right?

Binitawan ko kaagad ang espadang hawak ko at hinabol ko si Dhrazan. Pinigilan sana ako ni Alarcon like he's appealing that this isn't the best time to talk to him but my determination is so strong.

I need to talk to him.

Right now.

I catch my breath and look for where he goes. I know that I can still catch him before he manage to go inside his chamber.

"DHRAZAN SANDALI!" I called him at his back. He paused. Probably waiting for what I'm about to say.

"Uhm—just— I mean— can we talk?" I asked.

Alright, I'll admit it. I'm concerned. Just so concern and wanted to ask kung kamusta siya. How his day went, where he goes or just want to know why there's a sadness that draws to his eyes!

I didn't hear him answer my question as if he didn't hear me asking that. So I walk toward him. I tap his arm and he pull that away.

"Don't— Just leave me alone." There's a crisp in his voice.

He doesn't owe me anything but he could have at-least be nice?

Or ask if how my day went or anything? But who damn cares about me? I wish. I only wish. Because the truth is, he doesn't care at all.

Now he's being cocky again which I don't understand.

I don't understand. He's casting me away again. I swear I'm not gonna leave him like this. I swear I wanted to know why he keeps  avoiding me.

"I don't get you." I say.

"Then stay away." He replied and not even facing me. So I go to his front and look directly in his eyes.

At this very moment, I feel how much he's drawn to me, I can feel it inside me. But then it seems like he works so hard to deny whatever attraction there might be between us.

And fuck, I'm aching everywhere.

"Why? Bakit mo ako iniiwasan?" Can you tell me why because  I will never stay away from you." I whispered. I close my eyes and all the aches are now consuming me. I gather myself and find my voice.

"You don't get it do you? I want to be alone."

"Do you hate me? Do you really hate me that much DHRAZAN? I don't know where the hate is coming from. I don't know why you're acting like that. But here I am, ready to listen, because whatever that you are going through right now... I will try my best to understand... and do my best to help you...I am here to help you.. if you will just let me."

"Help? You can't even help yourself. You can't even kill a vulkrash." He butted in.

His words is like a blade that pierced through my heart.

Maybe he's right. As if I can kill a vulkrash. I don't even know how to wield a sword properly in the first place. I don't even know how to control my power or even how to take care of myself. Malakas lang ang loob ko by just thinking he'll come with us, panatag ang loob ko kapag nasa tabi ko siya, silang dalawa ni Alarcon.

But who am I without them?

Who am I without him?

I'm just no one.

I am hurt by what he says but maybe he's right.

As if I could be as strong as him.

As if I am able to control my powers.
