"Queenzy!" a lovely and excited voice suddenly interrupted my thoughts.


"Hi! Sorry, I'm a bit late." she said as she sat down in front of me.


"Sorry, if I suddenly called you to meet me here, Tallia." I casually said.


She just chuckled, "Nah, it's okay! I've been really wanting to meet and talk to you again. How did you know my number, anyway? I was surprised after I read your message." sunod sunod niyang sabi.


A waitress suddenly approached us and asked Tallia about her order kaya nag order muna siya, while I already have my drink. I've been fifteen minutes waiting here in this snack cafe.


I actually never imagined that I will have a time like this with Tallia.


"So, how are you? And, why did you want to meet me?" nakangiting tanong ni Tallia as soon as she finished ordering.


"I have a really personal question to ask, would you be so kind to answer me honestly?" I formally uttered.


Nawala naman ang malapad na ngiti sa labi niya, although there is a small, thin, smile visible in her lips.


"Sure. I'll tell you as long as I know the answer." sabi niya.


I didn't open my mouth for a bit second, while Tallia is just watching me breathe, waiting for what I will be asking her.


"Tallia, who is Tristan?" I simply asked.


Her eyes widen a bit and then she laughed, "Why Tristan? I thought you'll be going to asked me about Xzevier." she said and chuckled.


"Is Tristan really your brother?" I asked again using a serious tone.


Natigilan naman siya sa pag tawa habang nakatingin sa akin, "Why-Why are you suddenly asking me that?" she stutteringly asked.


"I am asking you the question I am curious at... Is Tristan your biological brother?" I asked once again.


"Of course..." she mumbled and suddenly stopped, "He is our brother, our eldest brother." sambit niya, but there is something in her words.


"You're uncertain in your words, Tallia." sabi ko habang nakatingin ng deretso sa kaniya.


She flinched because of it and then look away. I knew it.


"Just tell me honestly, Tallia. I just need to confirm something." sabi ko naman sa kaniya.


"Why? Did Tristan do something?" she suddenly asked.


Umiling naman ako, just to give her peace of mind if she's worried, even though, a time will come, and I will definitely kill that bastard.
