I can still hear the light sound of raindrops as the thunderstorm gets on our way. It was almost an hour and no words came out from me or even Luthor. Parang sumasakit ang lalamunan ko. Ilang beses ba akong sumigaw kanina?

Damn. Hindi mawala sa isip ko ang pinagbago ni Loki. How can someone like Loki do all of that? Siguro macoconsider ko nang isang milagro iyon. Except nga lang kung may nainom na gayuma si Loki. Or kinain na ng mga alien ang utak niya.

That's not Loki....

He's not the Loki I know....

How can he love me if everybody says that he loves Rhea. Except for Jamie of course, the self-proclaimed future wife of Loki.

And when Loki said that I am his world. Sigurado ba siyang ako yung mundo niya? Undoubtedly, his world is living under the shadow of Moriarty and not me!

But.....if Loki did not really loved me, what was his purpose of doing so? Maybe to hurt Luthor emotionally?

"You think deeply, what's the matter my Princess?"

Luthor broke the silence between us. I don't know what to say. If I will say Loki, baka iba naman ang iisipin niya.

"N-Nothing"

"Is it because of Loki?"

I looked at Luthor with widened eyes. "H-Hindi"

He smiled lightly. I think he knows that I'm lying.

"Well Lorelei, sorry for punching Loki. He deserved it. No one can kiss you on the forehead like that. You're mine Lorelei, only mine"

Ngumiti lang ako. Di ko pa nga siya sinasagot pero napaka possessive na niya.

"Luthor can I ask you something?"

"Go on", sabi ni Luthor habang nakafocus siya sa pagmamaneho.

"Is Loki......a bipolar person?", I asked. Luthor would be the best one to ask this question as he knows Loki very well. And, he is Loki's brother.

Luthor laughed hysterically. May nakakatawa ba sa tanong ko?

"If you ask me, that would be a no"

"Then why..... Why Loki's attitude is changing?"

"What?"

"He changed. His attitude towards me.... completely changed. And the way he speaks to me"

"Did he smiled at you?"

"Y-Yeah..."

Napangiti ulit si Luthor. "He did not changed my princess, you're actually seeing the original Loki"

A stream of curiosity came out of my mind. Some pieces of the puzzle are still missing. I can't connect all the pieces to make a precise conclusion.

"The real Loki?"

Luthor nodded. "Yes, the Loki we've known before. He changed when he found out that Rhea is dead"

"So you mean....."

"There's only two possible reasons on how my little brother changed. It's either he already proved out that Rhea is alive, or he found someone as important to him just like Rhea"
