Blaze x Thamina
"I am the fire that cannot be tamed. I don't bow to rivals. I don't bow to defeat. But her? I'd bow willingly."

"Uy! Alpha—"
"Where's Gio?"
Natahimik agad si Modrad nang hindi man lang siya sinulyapan ni Blaze. Tuloy-tuloy pa rin ito sa paglalakad,
Sino na namang Gio 'yon?
"B-bakit?" nauutal na tanong ni Modrad.
"Just tell me where the fuck he is?!" Blaze snapped, jaw tight, eyes blazing—literally deserving his name.
We had just arrived at their dorm from the mall. And the moment Blaze saw Ace earlier, his mood nosedived straight to hell.Biglang nag-init ang ulo at bumalik sa pagiging full-time kontrabida— actually, mas malala pa ngayon.
"A-ah... nandoon sa training room—"
Hindi na siya pinatapos ni Blaze. Nagmartsa na ito palayo, papunta sa kung saan man ang training room nila.
"Anyare na naman doon?" tanong ni Zero mula sa sofa.
Nagkibit-balikat si Modrad. Si Ezron naman, agad na tumingin sa'kin.
"Ba't ang laki ng bag mo, Thamina? Magpapa-ampon ka ba?" tukso nito.
Natawa ako at tiningnan ang backpack kong puno ng damit. "Hindi 'no. Buong magdamag kasi ako sa hospital."
"Hospital? Did something happen to you?" Zero asked, alarmed.
"Baliw, hindi. Si Lola ang nasa hospital. Inalagaan ko lang."
They both sighed in relief.
Modrad suddenly leaned forward. "Maiba ako, ha? Diba magkasama kayo bumili ng materials ni Alpha? Good mood pa 'yon kanina bago umalis, bakit pag-uwi niya bad mood na?" tanong nito habang nakakunot ang noo.
I looked down. My stomach twisted.
Should I tell them? Or should Blaze be the one to explain what happened?
"Thamina?" Zero asked again. "Can you tell us what happened?"
I swallowed hard. "D-dapat siya yung magsabi 'non sa inyo..."
Nagkatinginan ang tatlo, halatang nag-aalala.
"Ano ba talaga yung nangyari?" ulit ni Modrad.
Huminga ako nang malalim. "N-nakita namin sa mall kanina si... A-Ace."
Nanlaki agad ang mata nilang tatlo.
"Ace? As in Ace, Ace?!" halos pasigaw na tanong ni Modrad.
Tumango ako.
"That bastard actually had the nerve to show his face?" Zero muttered between gritted teeth. "Unbelievable."
