THE REAL QUEEN'S LIFE (COMPLETED)

CHAPTER FIFTY-TWO

Even if I have decided to follow the path I want, fate will always do its thing in order for the person to follow the path he made. Like a world of one will never become two.

I just sighed, "It's been a week." I mumbled while looking at the stars in the sky.

I suddenly feel a coat wrapped in my shoulder, kaya napatingin ako sa taong biglang lumapit sa'kin at naglagay ng coat sa balikat ko.

"You might catch a cold." he mumbled.

I just smiled, "Thanks."

Nakatingin lang naman ako sa kaniya habang nakatayo siya sa tabi ko.

"Hindi ka ba nilalamig?" I suddenly asked, he's just wearing a white polo-shirt kasi at medjo malamig dito sa taas sa totoo lang.

"Nah, I'm fine." he simply replied.

Then he stares at me, "Everyone's inside, yet you're here. You've been quiet and out of focus lately..."

I just simply smiled at him at muling tumingin sa madilim na kalangitan.

"Just like I always said, I'm fine... I just can't get over of the things that happened a week ago." I calmly uttered.

His hand suddenly touched my hand kaya muling napatingin ako sa kaniya. I just simply smiled as I felt his hand caresses my fingers.

"Just always remember that I am here, your friends are here as well." he softly uttered and suddenly embraced me. I just simply smiled and nodded.

"Thanks, Xzev." I mumbled as I buried my face in his chest letting me hear his heartbeat.

It's been a week. That whole week, I was just staying in this hospital, both Miiver and Xzevier were confined here. I wasn't even able to contact gramps during Christmas. I was out of my self. Buti nalang nandiyan silang lahat. Hindi ako hinahayaan nina Verlin, Akieyah, and Hendrix to be just by myself, even the Kings.

I've tell the Kings, including Xzevier my whole story.

And now it's New Year's Eve, I haven't seen gramps nor contact him for days.

"Thank you for always being there, Xzev..." I mumbled as we both let go of hugging each other.

He just smiled at me and caressed my cheek. "Happy New Year, Rein." he softly mumbled.

I just smiled as I hold his hand that's currently touching my cheek.

If I wasn't able to know the truth behind Ryan's death, I think, I surely despise this person in front of me. I won't be able to smile in front of him, I won't be able to talk to him this way again.
