Chapter 12:
Bulag na'ko.
Parang lang pala, dahil sa pisting liwanag 'yun na biglang bumalot sa'min ni Svanier. Kaya kinusot-kusot ko ang mga mata ko pero maingat baka bungangaan ako ni Kelly ng pinaghirapan niya, mahirap na.
Teka nasaan si Svanier?
Pero nang inilibot ko ang aking paningin ay agad na sumakit ang ulo ko. I'm inside the hell again.
Nasa dormitoryo, walang bago, at wala pang nagpapakita na apoy. Kaya pinanatili ko ang sarili ko na maging alerto.
Pero nagulat ako nang maay narinig akong yabag na parang tumatakbo.
"What's happening here?" Tanong ni Desmond na biglang sumulpot.
"Desmond!" I exclaimed.
"Yllaire..." mahinahon niyang tawag.
"I'm back," I chuckled with an unpleasant and sarcastic tone. It's good to see him but just... fuck this place.
"You're beautiful..." he complimented in which I don't know how to react.
"Ang init," komento ko bigla.
Well, you're wearing a fucking dress or it's more like a gown than a dress actually, malamang mainit. Not mentioning that you're back at hell.
My body suddenly froze when Desmond was infront of me in a flash and... was now hugging me.
Anong nakain nito?
But what the heck he's a ghost, he can't eat, Yumi, you freak.
I hugged him back, he was hurt the last time that devil almost killed me. I'm glad that he's okay. And I've been thinking that he will again as I realized I'm back...
I'm in a pretty tight situation here. So, basically I don't know what to do. Also, the devil is not appearing, but that doesn't mean that he'll not appear anytime soon.
But... he's kinda hugging me for too long.
I glanced him with a grim face. "Nangangalay na 'ko," sabi ko kay Desmond.
"Oh, sorry," he chuckled, blushing.
Tama 'yan mahiya ka.
"Anyways, why does the freaky fire doesn't appear?" I asked.
"I don't know either. Dati, pagnag-uutos siya, after ringing the bell, he had already written his order. Pero ngayon..." napatigil siya at parang nagtataka siya.
"Pero ngayon, ano?" Tikhim ko nang parang nag-iisip pa siya ng ilang segundo.
"He doesn't, he just make me go here and get the paper on the study table," sabi niya.
"That's interesting, a devil that uses fire to communicate can write on a paper without burning the paper itself," I said... which is ironic.
Tumikhim lang siya at parang pinipigilan ang sarili na matawa. "But I think you're planning for my comeback though, Lucifer," aniya ko habang nilibot ang aking paningin sa buong kwarto ng may ngisi.
Because as per Sun Tzu, appear weak when you are strong and strong when you are weak. In which I was the second one. I might have something that can defy his powers, but I don't know that until now. So, I'm gonna make sure to find it and find how it works. And by that, I can do the first line.
Pinandilatan nanaman ako ni Desmond, pahiwatig na winawarningan niya naman ako. But I don't care and I don't like being here. But I can't just abandon others that were here. As I don't like the idea either that these souls that once are people are being tangled with Lucifer's self-issues for so long.
