Vic's POV

I'm competing for my school. Nandito rin si Vee at manood siya sa competition. Syempre sumusuporta siya sa team ko. Nagsimula na ang ceremony.

"Charyeot!" Sigaw ng chief instructor namin

Kaya tumayo naman kami ng maayos without any movements at walang nagsasalita except sa aming instructor. Nag stretching muna kami. Warm-up pala. Then nag wait lang ako if kailan ako tatawagin kasi nagsimula na ang competition. Naglabanan na.

Tumabi pa ako kay Valerie (Vee). (Valerie ang gusto kong itawag sa kanya eh.)

"Good luck sis! Punta ka rin dun sa aking tournament next week ah!" Masayang sabi niya

"Oo naman!" Sabi ko

Nung may nakita si Valerie na lalaki, bigla siyang tumingin sa akin at sinuot ang kanyang hoodie pati mask niya. 😷

"Anong nangyari?" Tanong ko

"Hindi siya pwedeng makakaalam na may kambal ako." Sabi niya

"Okay lang yan. Hindi ko naman siguro siya makakalaban diba?" Tanong ko

"Next competitors will be Mr. D Xavier and Ms. V Wilton." May nag announce

"Wow, talagang sinadya toh ng tadhana eh! Siya ang opponent mo, Vic!" Sabi ni Valerie

"Don't worry sis. I won't let you down." I winked at her

Pumunta naman ako dun sa center at nakipag usap pa ako sa coach ko.

"Okay, just remember what I've trained you for more than a decade. You're used to this. So no need more advices. I know you're better than anyone." Sabi ni coach

"Grabi ka naman coach! Better than anyone pa talaga?" Tanong ko

Sinuot ko na yung gears ko. Pati na rin yung gum shield ko. Thrilling ang fight na toh dahil no armor needed pati na rin yung para protect sa ulo ko. (Author: Pasensya, nakalimutan ko kung anong tawag dun ✌🏻😅 matagal na akong hindi nag Taekwondo.)

Nung nag face-to-face na kami ng opponent ko, ngumiti siya at nagtataka.

"Vee? I didn't know you entered this sport. And I didn't know why you considered yourself as Wilton. That's your mom's surname, isn't it?" Daming tanong nito!

Hindi ko siya sinagot.

"I won't take easy on you." Sabi niya

"Heh! And you think I will take easy on you?" Tanong ko

"So when did you mastered Taekwondo, huh?" Tanong niya

"I completed all the levels at the age of 10." Sabi ko

Darrel's POV

Black belter siya. At yung nakatatak lang sa kanyang belt ay "V.R.W" bakit walang "H"? I know exactly what it means. V stands for Valerie, R stands for Riley. W stands for Wilton. That's her middle name. Ganyan ba talaga ka hate niya ang kanyang ama para itanggi na isa siyang Hammilton?

"I'm sorry, master." I bowed

"I'm kinda bored. Why aren't we starting?" Tanong niya

Biglang nag "charyeot" na yung chief instructor kaya napatayo kami ng maayos at nag command na si sir para mag bow.

"Jeonbi." He commands kaya nag ready stance na kami

"Shi-jak!" Sigaw niya kaya umatake na kaagad si Vee sa akin. To be honest, she's really good!

Nag round-house kick siya at nag full moon kick. I dodged her leg at nag side kick naman ako. Patuloy nang patuloy ang labanan namin. In fact, she's not just good. She's amazing!

Nung natapos ang laban namin, we shook hands as I went closer to her and whispered something.

"Congratulations, master." I whispered "I'm just taking easy on you." Sabi ko

"Don't even try to lie. I was just warming up. You haven't seen my best moves yet." Sabi niya at nag pat pa sa aking shoulder at kinindatan ako saka nag smirk 😏

Then she went to her coach. Nagtataka lang ako kung bakit nasa ibang school ang kanyang team. Dapat ka team kami kasi nasa Hammilton University siya. The Valerie I knew was very gentle and sweet. Now she's so reckless. She doesn't even care if someone will punch her. I smelled something odd.

Vic's POV

I'm hanging out with my twin. Nasa isang restaurant kaming dalawa at kumakain lang ng kahit ano. Then pumunta na kami sa aming condo. Since pareho naman ang condominium na tinuluyan namin eh.

"Are you ready to meet our mom?" Tanong ko

"I'm excited to meet her. But I'm scared at the same time." Sabi niya

"You'll get used to it. She's not scary at all." I chuckled

She nodded "Alright. Then I'll let you memorize the people I knew. I have some pictures in my phone."

"As soon as I'll start to pretend to be you, I will avenge you. I will make them pay for what they did to you." Sabi ko pa

"Hey, you don't have to do that." She flashed a smile

"I'll defend you, sis. I can't let them hurt you." Sabi ko

She held my hands and pressed them lightly as she smiled "I'm glad to have a sister like you." Sabi niya

I smiled back in return "I'm glad that you're glad to have a sister like me."
