One-eyed Ronin

Chapter 6

Third Person's POV

The parents of the twins are getting sentimental.

"I can't believe our twins are now grown up. Reika is doing good in our legal business, while Ronin is skillful and very smart in the underground. She's even respected very well by the gang members."

"But you know Rogue, Ronin is still young and I'm afraid she would witness how dirty works operate in the underground."

"You don't have to worry about her Angel. I'm sure Ronin would always ensure her twin sister's safety."

"I know and I believe in our daughter. I'm just worried because she's more nonchalant than you. We never witness how she got hurt and she never expresses her anger."

"Relax, Angel. Our wolf-pup like Ronin is stronger than me. After all, even if we throw her at the wolves, she will return leading the pack."

On the other hand, the Sinaloan Mexican Mafia is on the move to execute their plans.

Ronin's POV

"Hey, Ronin, I'll be meeting Samantha Villar in their house for a partnership. Do you want to join?"

"No, Love. I'll have a dance workshop later."

"You know what, you should stop seeing Antonnia because even if you don't show me, I know you're hurting."

"Relax, I can handle myself."

"Also, Dad and Mom will be joining us later."

"Okay, okay, you take care love."

I thought my twin sister already left but I'm shocked as she hugged me.

"Hey, you're getting clingy again."

"I don't know, I just wanted to hug you more, Ronin."

"Even if I'm not there, I'll be cheering you on. I love you Reika."

"I love you too Ronin, very very much."

We part ways after that.

Ran and I arrived at the dance hall. We are going to perform a solo cover. My performance is scheduled for today. Ran and Antonnia performed last time.

However, we saw our fellow dancers gathering around, shouting, and cheering.

"Say Yes!" "OMG!" "Say yes, Antonnia!"

When we heard Antonnia's name, Ran and I went closer.

I saw Michael kneeling on one knee, proposing to Antonnia.

At that moment, our eyes met.

I don't know how to feel right now. Before my tears could fall, I just smiled at her. Even though my heart contradicted what my face showed, I tried my best to stop my emotions from overflowing.

"Yes, Michael."

The fellow dancers went wild. Ran tapped my shoulder. I pretended to be okay for the entire session.

"Okay, now we are going to witness Ronin's solo cover," said our dance instructor.

I changed the song I was going to dance to and decided to perform "Happier" by Marshmello. I've practiced this numerous times before and personally choreographed it. I didn't know it would now be the perfect song to express how I feel towards Antonnia.

I'm not a good talker, so I'll just offer this dance to her. This will be my last dance for you before you get married to Michael.

I can't believe you're now engaged.

My fellow dancers cheered for me as the song played in the background.

When the chorus played, I looked at her.

Then only for a minute
I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
I wanna raise your spirits
I want to see you smile but
Know that means I'll have to leave
Know that means I'll have to leave

Our eyes met again. I smiled at her genuinely this time.

Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier

I'm hurt but I'll be fine. I want you to be happier.

"That's so fire, Ronin!"

"I can feel your emotions in you dance!"

"That's dope."

The dance workshop ended as well. Antonnia expressed how happy she was with her engagement to Michael.

"Congratulations, Antonnia. I want you to be happier." Those were the last words I said to her.

We parted ways after that, as Antonnia went with Michael.
