A Blaze of Rain

X- Rain and Blaze

Rain's POV

"I told you, you're dangerous." he said as he held the yellow umbrella on one hand and using the other, he offered his red handkerchief to me.

"Blaze?" I said choking back tears.

He grabbed my left hand and then inilagay yung panyong hawak niya.

"Paano mo nalamang nandito ako?" I asked as I used his handkerchief to wipe my tears. It has the same scent, sweet vanilla.

"That's my second handkerchief." I just remembered kanina pinahiram din niya sa akin yung panyo niya, kulay red din.

"Sorry, nakalimutan kong ibalik kanina." I said.

"It's okay, sayo na lang yang dalawa." he simply said.

"Mayaman siguro to sa panyo parang si Skye." I murmured.

"Nagawa mo pang magpatawa ah." he said and then chuckled. He heard me? At ano ba to? Parang ngayon ko lang siyang nakitang tumawa.

"Bagay naman pala sayo tumawa, Kuya e." I said teasingly.

Tuluyan nang tumigil ang patak ng ulan. We both looked up and felt it.

"Hay, tumila din. Pasok tayo sa loob?" he offered his hand and I accepted it.

Pumasok kami sa loob ng convenience store at bumili siya ng dalawang cup noodles.

"Here." Nang maupo kami ay inabot niya sa akin yung isa sa pinainit niyang noodles.

Sinimulan kong hipan at kainin yung noodles, at hindi ko mapigilan na pagmasdan siya.

It feels déjà vu.

"If you're wondering how I found you, my sister dreamt of you." he simply said as he finish up his noodles.

"Sister? Si Candice?" I asked. Maybe Candice has something to do about this. But how?

"Bridgette."

"Bridgette? Teka, ilan ba kayong magkakapatid?" I asked. Hindi naman ako naorient na malaki pala ang family tree nila.

Saktong naubos na niya yung noodles niya at nagsalita. "Four. I, Candice, Haze, and Bridgette. Candice can use her spark to hypnotise someone, Haze has the same asset as mine but he can't master ashes yet. While Bridgette, she dreams of the future and when she wakes up, she could detect when, where, and how it would happen. That way napipigilan namin ang hindi magandang mangyayari." he answered.

I was already halfway through my food and then I asked. "So she dreamt about me?"

"Yes, and apparently kapag hindi ka daw napuntahan agad a huge thunderstorm may happen. That's why I told you, you're dangerous. You should learn to control your emotions." he explained.

"Thunderstorm? I thought rain is my asset?" I asked.

"I'm not sure about that. Basta ang alam ko, you have a unique asset. A unique gift." he said.

"More like a curse. How can I show my emotions freely kung pipigilan ako nitong sumpang ito? This is worst than me having no family at all." It happened again, the rain poured once again because of my sudden burst of emotions.

Tatayo na sana ako nang bigla siyang magsalita. "Sit." I feel miserable and I don't know what kind encouraging spell he casted on me kaya I've obeyed him.
