Veronica's Secret

02-QUESTIONS

"V! Umalis ka dyan!"

My senses came back nang marinig ko ang pagsigaw ni Mama...

Aisht! The wol... I mean Dad is coming right straight towards me!

Agad-agad akong tumayo at tumalon sa bandang pintuan and Dad kept on laying his ghastly eyes on me while I'm slowly walking backwards

V, divert you're Dad's attention. I have a plan.

M-mom? Did I just heard my Mom's voice in m-my head?!

Veronica! Hurry!

Hindi ko namalayan na nakatulala na naman ako...

V!

Ok Mom! I just put that query in the back of my head for now...

"D-dad? It's me... V, your daughter and... uh... and please t-t-turn back...

I continued talking just to divert his attention until...

"Sigma Pierre!"

A long Sphere appeared with a moon figure on top of it and the whole place was once again filled with tiny crystal like fragments and a wee bit of flashy-bright lights...

"Illumina Dretei!"

My jaw dropped dahil sa nakikita ko...

An orbital bright light appeared behind my Mom...
It looks like a tiny Galaxy because of its features...

Wait... a p-portal !!?

The W-wo... Dad growled loudly and suddenly charged towards Mom...
and both of them fell

Nakatulala parin ako dahil hanggang ngayon, hindi parin totally nagsi-sink sakin ang lahat

BOOOM!!

A loud explosion was heard...

Napatakip ako sa mga tenga ko dahil sa ingay nayon...

"Mom!!!"

Umalis ka dyan V! Ngayon din!

Hindi ko namalayan na nasa tabi ko na pala si Dad...

Napaatras ako ng ilang hakbang pero...

"Aaaahhhh!!!!"

I shrieked out loud dahil tumalon siya sa akin...
and n-now I found myself underneath him!

"Lord! please help me! ayaw ko pang mamatay! Mom! "

"Aaahhhhhh!!!!"

and all went black...

-*-*-*-***-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-

I woke up in a familiar room full of tiny sparkly lights and some floating tiny creatures with wings...
wait... What!!!???

"Aawwww!" napahawak ako sa ulo because I felt a slight pain at the back of my head when I suddenly rouse up from the bed

"Woah! Easy lang V."
a familiar voice spoke to me


"Mom? Anong..."

"Don't worry, everything is now being taking care of. So just lay back and rest."

"But..."

"V, you're still weak. You need to regain your strength first and to do that, kailangan mo munang magpahinga."

I guess Mom's right. I really need to rest.

"And by the way V, huwag na wag mo nang uulitin yung ginawa mo, muntik na akong mawalan ng isa pang anak... I almost l-lost you..." paiyak na sabi ni Mama

"Excuse me, I'll just need to wash my face. I'll be back immediately V."

I know it has been tough for my Mom through these past few years because of the loss of my older brother...

haayyy...Ang bilis talaga ng panahon. It's been almost 5 years since that tragic incident happened...

"Always remember that you are strong Veronica, always remember that you are stronger than anyone else... believe in yourself. Someday you'll understand and know the whole truth... stay who you are kiddo"

I can still remember his last words before he was gone... I never thought that yun na pala ang huli naming paguusap nung gabing yun, it was the night before the incident happened, and I was just 11 years old back then..

I still can't figure out what's really happening right now... and...

"Do you need something V?"

Hindi ko namalayan na lumabas na pala si Mama... I also noticed that her clothes already turned back to the way they were

And by the way V, huwag na wag mo nang uulitin yung ginawa mo, muntik na akong mawalan ng isa pang anak... I almost l-lost you...

Naalala ko ang sinabi ni mama before she went to the bathroom ....

and those words kept on repeating inside my head over and over

and I can't contain myself from not ignoring such query, so my mouth just opened ...

"Mom,About what you've said earlier... what did I actually do to put my life at risk? It just keeps on bothering me..."

"You used your incanthus"
