Chapter Fifty-three: No going back

"My dear angel, don't let denial chain you. Acceptance is the key to freedom"

- Zeus Achilles -

Everything was a blur to Zeus.

Ang natatandaan lang niya ay ang huling sinabi ni Seige. She said someone important summoned her and after that Zeus did not see her again... For days.

Long agonizing hours passed and all Zeus could think of was her lips. How soft it felt against his...

He thought after sharing that moment with her everything will change... But she's gone again.

Seige did not return that night. Ni hindi nga ito nag iwan ng kahit anong message sa kanya. He tried contacting her but she's not answering. And then he discovered tha she left phone. He found it under her pillow like she told him.

He can't help but feel frustrated at how childish Seige is being. Ilang beses nang pinaalala at sinabi kung ano ang dapat gawin pero hindi parin ginagawa. Wala paring nagbabago.

Sinadya na niya ang diner sa town square ngunit wala rin siyang nakuha roon. Seige just pops in to help at the diner, besides that wala ng alam ang mga katrabaho nito sa buhay nito sa labas.

Tumatakas siya para puntahan lang ang apartment at diner pero wala talaga. Aiane kept telling to stop being so obsessive dahil baka may importanteng ginawa lang si Seige kaya ito wala pero hindi pinakinggan ni Zeus ang kapatid.

Until Aiane told him Seige left a letter of her official absence.

Zeus glanced at the clock. Ilang minuto nalang matatapos na ang klase nila.

The bell rang, officially ending their last period before field training, isa si Zeus sa mga huling tumayo.

Flame was the last one out, tinignan pa siya nito bago lumabas. Halatang nagtataka kung bakit hindi pa siya tumatayo.

"I need you to tell me where Seige Van Syckle is," Zeus advanced on Mr. Collins' desk.

Zeus' instructor, who doesn't look a day older than thirty five, fixed the scattered on papers on his desk not looking up at him. "I believe I don't have an answer to that Mr. Sinclaire"

"Sir," Zeus' jaw tightened. "I've been looking for days and I'm having a hard time on reaching her. Nag iwan daw siya ng letter sabi ni Aiane---"

"Ah, Athena's been snooping around again," ngumiti ito ng bahagya.

"Sir," Zeus' said impatiently.

Mr. Collions sighed before staring up at him, "Ms. Van Syckle is out of the country at this moment, the letter did not state exactly where and why. Si Syre mismo ang nag bigay ng letter na iyon nang sinundo niya ang kapatid niya. I hope that answers your question"

She's out of the country... She's not here... She's a thousand miles away from me...

Zeus doesn't have the slightlest idea kung ano ang dahilan sa pag alis nito. Anong meron sa ibang bansa?

"Did the letter state when she will return?" Zeus' hand turned into a fist with bitter thoughts running around his head.

Mr. Collins shook his head.

Alam ni Zeus na wala na siyang makukuha pang impormasyon kaya tinalikuran na niya ito but Mr. Collins called him back.

"If it makes you feel any better, tingin ko dahil sa trabaho ng kapatid niya ang dahilan kung bakit wala siya dito ngayon. The infos of the trip are classified dahil Pureblood family ang pinagsisilbihan ni Syre"
