Chapter 57: She's Back
Trale's Point of View
She's really good in hiding, but not to me. For me, Summer is the most visible one when it comes to her feelings. I can really see who is she when I stared at her eyes.
I stared at her face and I immediately stand straight when I saw her eyes wide open. It's already 10 in the evening. And Emp and I was the only one who stayed here.
"Trale." She said my name, but it came as a whispered. But because of the silence I heard it, clearly.
Itinaas niya ang kamay niya at mahina niyang pi-nat ang ulo ng natutulog na si Emp sa tabi niya. It's been two days since our gang and her gang talked. At ngayon lang siya nagising. Good news, then.
"Is he tired?" She's pertaining to Emp. I nodded as I silently walked towards her. I sat at the couch near her bed and stared at her.
"Ilang oras na ba akong natutulog?" I can't help but smile when she asked. She's vulnerable right now. Hindi niya alam na hindi na oras ang dapat na itanong niya.
"Two days." Halata sa kanya na nabigla siya sa sinagot ko. Pero ngumiti lang siya. But her smile faded when Emp woke up. Nag-wave ako ng kamay kay Summer at lumabas na ng room.
I sat up at the bench outside the room and close my eyes. Ah, I want to sleep.
Third Person's Point of View
"Summer." He immediately hugged her and she can't help but to smile. Summer patted his head as her smile faded. Nakapagdesisyon na si Summer. Kailangan na niyang sabihin sa kanya ang totoo. Na wala na dapat siyang itago sa kanya.
"I want to talk to you, no-" Hindi na niya natapos ang sinasabi niya nang halikan siya ni Wynd. Her tears flowed down at the side of her eyes.
"I am Evanescence Summer Nakashige Greene. The only Heiress of the Nakashige, the Mistress of the Ace of Spade University and also I am Empress Butterfly. The gang leader of the Black Royalties and the Empress." Summer closed her eyes as she said the truth. Natatakot siyang makita ang mga mata ni Wynd na punong-puno ng galit habang nakatingin ito sa kanya.
Hindi alam ni Summer kung anong ginawa niya sa kanya noon. Pero kahit na magalit siya sa kanya, ay gusto pa rin ni Summer na ipaalam sa kanya kung sino ba talaga siya. Gusto niyang ipaalam sa kanya para wala na siyanh itinatago sa kanya. Hindi na niya kayang itago pa ng mas matagal sa kanya kung sino ba talaga siya.
"Summer." Her eyes flank open as he held Summer's chin. He stared at her using his emotionless eyes. And she can't help but to feel nervousness.
"I already know everything. But, thank you for telling me the truth." Parang naging blank ang isip ng dalaga nang marinig niya ang mga salitang iyon na nanggaling mismo sa bibig ng binata.
"From the first time that our eyes met, I know something is wrong. I felt that, something is off. Your disguise, your eyeglasses. Being a nerd is not exactly for you. Hindi ko alam kung kailan at kung bakit ako nahulog sa'yo. But my heart was telling me that it doesn't matter anymore. Nakita ko na lang ang sarili ko na, pinapanood kita. I've became like this because of you. I felt love because of you." She just stared at him when he started talking.
"I was so happy when I saw your emotion towards Lumiere's words when she told you that she's my girlfriend. Remember the last time that we spend? I'm nearly drowning to my sleep when I heard your voice. Telling me about your decisions. That time, I didn't followed you because I know you need space. You need to clear your mind. I let you walked away from me, but it does not mean that I will going to let go of you." Inayos niya ang buhok ng dalaga na tinatakpan ang gilid ng mata nito.
