Reminisce
"Are we going to stare at each other here all night?"
Napabalik ako sa katinuan sa sinabi niya. I didn't know that I was staring at him already. It's just that I never thought of seeing him again, and at this kind of situation. Sino bang magaakala na siya ang nag-aantay sa likod ng pintuan na iyon? And it's been years since I last heard of him. Wala akong balita kung ano na ang nangyayari sa kanya.
"What are you doing here?" I manage to ask. Nakita kong tumingin na muna siya sa likuran ko, which is kay Damon, before looking back at me.
"Shouldn't I be the one asking you that?" He smirks, "To think that the whole world is looking for you, especially my brother. What would they say if they found out that you're here all along..." he looks back up at Damon then back to me, his smirk turning wider. "And that you're with your rumored kidnapper which also happens to be my brother. What an epic turn of events, do you think?"
I bite my lips hard enough to prevent me from snapping back at him. It's been years and still, he hadn't change... or should I say, he did change for the worst. Sila lang talaga ang kilala kong kaya akong inisin at galitin sa sandaling oras lamang. It's a special ability that these brothers happen to have. And it sucks that they've been part of my life for as long as I can remember.
"Just get to your point, Zeke." I heard Damon hissed. Nakita ko rin na nasa gilid ko lang siya at masama ang tingin nito sa kanya.
Everyone, meet the oldest among the Alvarez brothers, Angelo Ezekiel. If Lucifer and Damon are devils by name and somehow by nature, this guy is Satan himself. Siya ang pinakamalala sa kanilang tatlo st kabaligtaran ng pangalan niya ang ugali niya. Kung anong kinabanal ng pangalan niya, siya namang kinasama ng ugali niya. Dahil kung anong kinagago ng kambal, wala pa sila sa kalingkingan ng kayang gawin ng taong to. He's devious amd dangerous, a bad combination for an Alvarez. Hindi ko nga alam kung saan nagmana ang tatlong to dahil ang mga magulang na nila ang isa sa mga mababait at mabubuting tao na nakilala ko.
"Why don't you let me inside first?"
Wala kaming nagawa dalawa nang siya na mismo ang nagpapasok sa sarili niya. Nagawa pa nga niyang banggain si Damon ng harangan siya nito. At ang walanghiya, nagawa pang dumekwatro habang prenteng nakaupo sa sofa.
Isang tingin pa lang sa kanya at sa ngisi niya, I'm pretty sure that it'll be one of my longest night.

"What brings you here?" Damom ask him.
He smile widely, "Well, news spread out fast until what you did happen to reach even in New Orleans." So nandun pala siya. He chuckles a bit, amusement clear in his eyes. "So I decided to pay you guys a visit. I wouldn't miss this for the world, knowing that it involves my most favorite girl here." He said the last part while looking at me, ignoring the glare his brother is sending towards him at the same time.
"Favorite girl, huh?"
"Of course, love."
Nakita ko kung paano umigting ang bagang at kumunoot ang noo ni Damon sa tabi ko. His fists are also tightly closed, as if any moment he'll punch him. Alam ko na nagpipigil pa siya, after all, kuya pa rin naman niya ang isang ito.
"Stop calling her that!" Damon shouted angrily. "Why don't you just get your ass out of here and go back to New Orleans?"
"Sorry my dear brother, but I can't do that."
