Chapter 15

Hours passed by, and Lockey prepared himself to meet his Aunt Amora as told by his professor he'll be meeting him tonight. He wasn't sure what else he would say to his aunt and if he would tell him the truth or just go with what his professor told them where he went.

"I mean, you know, you cannot go alone so we're coming," Simon said, shrugging his shoulder off. "You don't have a choice anymore. We'll be coming with you."

"All of you?" Lockey asked.

"No! Not everybody," Malcolm interjected as if he argued with the idea. "It's just gonna be me and Malcolm who are coming with you."

"What about me?"

And all of their attention shifted to the one who peek her head by the door and they saw Aurelia smiling at them.

Malcolm shook her head together with her finger. "No. Nope. You're not coming with us. It's just the boys only and to be honest, we don't need you to be here. It's guys' night, so..."

"Kind of rude, Malcolm," Aurelia said rolling her eyes. "Anyway, fine."

She left them all while Lockey was looking at himself in the mirror. Hinarap naman niya muli ang mga kaibigan at tinawag ang atensyon nito.

"Tara na. Alis na tayo, but I think I should send a message muna kay tita kung papunta na ba sila."

"Do that," Simon said. "We'll be there in a blink."

"That's a fact," pagsang-ayon naman ni Malcolm sa kanya.

Simon smirked as it is the truth.

Lockey texted his aunt and then he received a phone call right after. It was his aunt calling so he answered it right away.

"Tita Amora!" bungad ni Lockey. "Nasa'n na kayo?"

"We're on our way na."

"May kasama ka?" tanong pa nito.

"Yes, Gage is coming with me. S'yempre, he wanted to see you rin and you'll be away from home so he also just wanted to make sure you'll be safe and everything."

"We got you, Lockey," sabi naman ni Gage sa kabilang linya.

"Yes, we got you, Lock," ani Amora. "Ikaw ba? Nasaan ka na?"

Kinuha naman ni Simon ang atensyon ni Lockey at may sinasabi pa ito.

Tell her we're already here, he mouthed.

Tumango naman si Lockey sa sinabi ni Simon. "Nandito na kami sa meeting place natin. Wait na lang namin kayo. Hindi kami papasok ng resto hangga't wala pa kayo."

"Ang bilis niyo naman, ha? Sige, malapit na lang din naman kami. See you, Lockey-lock-lock!"

"Sige, tita! See you!"

Nang ibinaba naman nito ang tawag ay agad na pumwesto ang tatlo ayon sa utos ni Simon. They locked the door so no one will find out where they went—obviously, their professor know where they will go so they weren't hiding it from them, but some may think they do.

Pinatong ni Simon ang kama sa balikat ni Lockey at Malcolm and looked at both of them.

"Are you guys ready?"

"Rea—" Lockey was interrupted when everything changes. "...dy. What?!"

Malcolm chuckled at Lockey's reaction. "I got used to it, but whenever Simon did this. I always feel like it was my first time. I wish I could transport everywhere in the world. That'll be easy peasy for me."
