Chapter Twenty-nine: Act of selfishness

-Zeus Achilles-

"Kuya..." Zeus soothed Aiane's back nung umagang iyon.

Their parents couldn't make it on family day kayang lungkot na lungkot ito. Katulad ni Aiane, nalulungkot rin si Ezra.

Naka subsob lang ang mukha nito sa lamesa, si Enzo naman ay naka tingin sa kanilang magkapatid kaya tinaasan niya ito ng kilay and mouthed a 'What?'

Aiane's back was turned to Enzo kaya hindi nito nakikita.

Tipid lang na ngumiti si Enzo at nag iwas ng tingin. Ngayon ay napapansin talaga niya ang tingin ni Enzo sa kanilang magkapatid.

Nawala rin ang atensyon niya kay Enzo dahil sa rustle na narinig niya galing sa itaas.

Seige just sat on the branch above them.

"Good morning," tiningala niya ito.

"Good morning," Seige waves before pointing at Aiane. "Is she okay?"

"Yeah," Zeus soothes Aiane's back again. "Just a bit saddened because our parents couldn't make it today. Ikaw? Is your brother coming?"

Umayos naman ng upo si Ezra at tinignan si Seige. "Oo nga. I want to see your brother"

Seige just shrugged. "He said 'No promises'"

"Mornin' Half Bloods and Common!"

"Morning noob. Ano yang dala mo?"

Nilingon rin ni Aiane ang kararating lang na si Asher para makita kung ano nga ang dala nito. Zeus however was wondering where Flame was.

He knew her parents couldn't make either. Parentless sila ngayong family day kaya para silang pinagsakluban ng langit at lupa.

"This, my dear cousin, is called a guitar," Ash strummed the guitar. Ngumisi naman si Enzo dahil hindi ito naka tono.

"Oo nga gitara 'yan," Ezra rolled her eyes. "Anong gagawin mo d'yan?"

"Malamang kakanta! I'm going to lift all of your moods up because by the looks of it, you all woke up at the wrong side of the bed!"

"Please don't, Kuya. Baka umulan, you'll ruin the day for others pa. Wag ka nang manira ng iba"

"Loko 'tong kapatid mo pare ha!" Tinuro ni Asher si Aiane dahil sa sinabi nito. "Nakakasakit ka ng damdamin Athena Adrianne. Bad 'yon!"

"Uy! Kuya Ash bakit may dalang guitar? Kakanta ka?" Gianna suddenly appeared next to Asher at naki strum din sa gitara. "Hindi naman naka tono eh. Niloloko mo ata ako"

"Sandali lang kasi," sinimulan na ni Asher i-tono ang gitara habang si Gianna ay excited na nag abang dahil hindi pa pala nito naririnig kumanta si Ash.

Si Ezra naman ay patuloy na dini-discourage si Ash sa balak nitong pag kanta while Enzo was suprisingly joing his twin.

"Hindi naman maganda boses mo" Enzo said, throwing a fallen leaf to Ash.

"Panget ka Enzo. Panget!"

"Can he sing?" Seige whispered above.

Tumingala naman si Zeus. "He can, but he's really not that good"

"Yep" Tumango rin si Aiane at bumaling kay Zeus. "But if you sing with him..."

"No"

"Oh come on Kuya just one song! Iligtas mo ang araw namin!"
