Genesis' POV
We're now in front of the storage room.
" Badtrip! Nakalock. " she says when she saw me analizing the padlock. It's new. Halata rin na pinuwersang tanggalin yung luma.
" Genesis, tumabi ka. " full of authorization na sabi ni Cherry. When I glanced at my back, she's standing in some I dont know what they calls it attacking position.
Seriously.
Sisirain nya talaga yung pinto?
Pero I step aside. Mahirap na, baka ako pa ang tamaan.
" Hit this side. " I pointed sa kabilang side ng pinto kung saan wala yung lock. Luma na kasi yung bisagra kaya there's a chance na bumigay yun kaysa dun sa dalawang bagong locks. She nod at me and...
" Yahhh! "
I promise to myself. I won't be Cherry's enemy. She's scary. At wala akong balak na tikman ang ganun kalakas nyang sipa.
As expected, bumigay nga yung lumang bisagra. Intact pa rin yung side na may dalawang bagong locks. Cherry pushed the door. I followed her. She stops in the middle of the room, staring at something rather someone at the corner.
" E-erza? " her tone nervous. I found the light switch and flip it on. Not good. I switch it off then switch it on. The room lighten up and.
" Erza! "
We hurried on her sides. I felt a wave of relief but my mouth tightens. I gritted my teeth.
She looks horrible.
She almost looks like a corpse!
" God... what the hell they've done to her? Why do they have to do this? " Cherry said crying.
She was tough, but when it comes to her besfriend, her soft features reveals.
We started to untie the ropes and the cloth covering her mouth.
Yes.
She laid on her side on the dusty floor. Tied up. Her hands at her back. I tried so hard to concentrate. My hands were shaking because of anger.
Damn it!
I want to beat someone.
To death!
After freeing her, we lay her down on her back. Without a word, I scooped her up from the floor. Cherry opens the door wide so Erza and I could passed through. We headed sa music room. Cherry open the door for us and close it at the moment we're in.
" Get the piano's cover." she do what I say and lay it on the floor. I put Erza down. I hand her my handkerchief. She quickly understands so she left the room with it.
I stare at Erza's face. She was undeniably beautiful. I notice the crack on her eyeglasses, I took it from her. My expression softens as I continue to stare.
Damn.
I really like this girl.
A lot.
The door opens and Cherry enter. My expressions back to normal. She handed back the handkerchief to me. Now soaked with water. I squezzed it to remove the excess water and wipes her face.
Cherry sits on her other side and look at her.
" You likes her, am I right? " she said, doubtful.
I didn't answer. I just lift Erza's hand and wipes it. I saw tiny bruises around her wrist. She was tightly tied.
I sighed. Anger's welling.
I breathe again.
Still holding her hand, I slowly put my head down and gently kissed her forehead.
Cherry stares in disbelief with wide eyes. O______O
