Start the War
Chapter 025
Sabay sabay na napagsinghap ang magpipinsan sa nasaksihan sa loob ng meeting room. What welcomed their eyes left them speechless and in utter shock.
Are they seeing things? They can't tell. It's too impossible. Sobrang napakaimpossible na totoo ang kanilang nakikita ngayon.
This is giving them goosebumps.
They're currently at the headquarters of Lees—back in Italy.
Right after Lorenzo left the university, hinayaan na sila ni Cj na gawin ang kanilang gusto and that includes leaving the university.
Lorenzo is the reason why they are there and now that he's gone, there's no reason to stay anymore.
Syempre sa kanilang lahat, si Sean ang pinakanatuwa sa nadinig. Due to his unfeigned happiness, he came up with the idea of thanking Lorenzo personally but then he shrugged off that thought.
Thanking him is absolutely a bad idea.
Halos magiisang buwan nanaman simula ng makaalis sila Lorenzo at Alexandra sa Lee University. Time ticks really fast.
Hindi na rin nila napansin ang araw dahil marami silang pinagkakaabalahan sa buhay. For clarification, none of it is interesting. They're just living their life to the fullest. Besides, they are still kids.
Kararating lang nila sa Italy isang linggo na ang nakakalipas. The elders finally allowed them to go back when they felt that the fire, at long last, is calming.
It's just that Rowena pissed everyone, the elders, and the remaining Lees when she left the throne without informing them. As said before, she decided it all by herself without consulting any of them.
No one liked what she did.
Today, they were asked to proceed to the headquarters this morning. Kaya pagkatapos nilang asikasuhin ang sarili, agad silang tumungo roon.
Unlike the elders, they don't usually stay at the headquarters.
They heard Cj is in Italy as well that's why they're all wondering what could be the meaning of the meeting today.
Did he do something unpleasant again? Pinatawag nanaman ba siya dahil nabwisit nanaman niya ang mga nakakatanda?
They didn't know the answer until they enter the meeting room. And what welcomed their eyes is just beyond their expectations.
None of them guessed it right.
It wasn't because of Cj.
It wasn't because of him.
It was because of his sister.
Not the youngest but the older sister.
Hindi sila makagalaw sa kanilang pwesto dahil sa labis na magkagulat. Paulit ulit na nilang kinurap ang kanilang mga mata but Cheska isn't disappearing in front of their eyes.
Paanong nangyari nandoon siya? How did it happen? How can this happen?
Wala silang makuhang sagot. The answer cannot be found from them—but from the persons standing in front of everyone. For sure they know everything about this.
None of them tried to break the ice. Tanging tunog lang ng aircon ang nadidinig sa loob ng kwarto.
The elders are still not saying anything. Hinahantay ba nilang humupa ang kanilang gulat?
There's no way they will be able to ignore their surprise in a short time. None of them saw this one coming. They heard no news, no hints.
Perhaps she's just a fragment of their imagination?
