The Thirteenth And Fifth Letter

Hurricane

"It really is brutal, 'no?"

Black blinked."What?"

"Take a picture. It lasts longer and listen to me." Light teased her.

"Why would I take a picture? I'm not a fan of your current state." White eyes pieced her with sarcasm that immediately transferred to her. White smiled.

"The storm," Black looked at it too. "It's brutal."

"It wouldn't be named after people if they weren't." Black replied which Shine answered, "That's mean."

Black chuckled, "It is brutal."

"Aren't you afraid of it?" White immediately knew how stupid the question was when Black smiled. "I can control them. I can summon them too. Why would I?"

White's head lightly bounced her head sideways, "Stupid question."

The wind blew so much harder outside of the window. But unlike moments ago, it doesn't come in anymore. They can see it prying outside. Pero hanggang dun lang sila.

These bitches are lucky that White is tardy right now and that Balance won't exactly win right away like they always used to. Kinunot ni Black ang noo nya habang nanonood parin kay White na pinanood ang delubyo sa labas ng apat na salamin na dingding.

"What are you going to do about it, Sweetie?"

"I'm gonna watch it." Napatanga ng unti si Black sa sagot ng nasa harap nya. Nanahimik na lamang sya habang patuloy na umiinom ng tsaa. Speaking, maybe White wants coffee?

"Yes, please."

Fuck me. Napairap naman dun si Black. Of course, she'll know. Tumayo na agad ito at nagtimpla ng kape. Unlike like Miss Life right here, she have to do everything from the scratch because, voila! All she can do is destroy.

"Here." Nilapag ni Black ang kape sa harap ni White.

White's gaze fell on to the Black coffee in front of her. She stared at it for a second and looked up to Black, "You haven't learned how to make creamy tasting coffee?"

"I don't want to." White's eyes squinted. Nailing nalamang ito at ininom ang gawa ni Black. Her veins turned black for seconds kaya napalaki ang mata ni Black, "What the."

"No offense but your coffee is really bitter. Is this a marietta?"

Nakakunot noo na sumagot si Black, "Like hell, where do you think I can get sweetness? Isa pa, ang matamis sakin, mapait sayo."

"Downfall is bitter and burning to the tongue, End." Napairap si Black. The only downfall that didn't tasted good was her downfall. Just hers. But if you think of it thoroughly, it's not that bad.

"Is a marietta the lightest you can give?" Tumango si Black at sumagot, "Why don't you just put sweetness to it?"

"Then it won't be the one you made." Black don't know if she's currently appreciative or a martyr. Her veins are colored black on her skin. It's distracting.

"You've done it before."

"Yeah. But right now I don't want to. Minsan lang naman kaya okay lang."

Napabuntong hininga si Black, Marietta is really the lightest coffee this place has. Some are painful, burning, and suffering for her precious tongue to touch. Marietta--the sea of bitterness is the best she can offer for her liking.

"This thing is intoxicating." White said. She might have thought that it was an insult if it weren't only came from this sweetheart. And it's true. The coffee is actually intoxicating so, no lies in there. "Don't you get tired of this?"
