Chapter 16: Zeira Lairhart
Zeira's POV
I feel lost. Hindi ako makapag-isip ng maayos. Hindi ko alam kung ano'ng gagawin ko. I don't even know what exactly is happening right now. I heaved out a deep sigh and looked sternly at the only blue flower in my secret garden dito sa Lairhart. Halos maging kulay kalawang na 'yon. Maybe I'm like this flower? It only shines whenever it is being sprinkled by water. It dies without it. Buhay nga ako, pero bakit ganito? Whatever Chelsea did to Wren killed me on the spot.
"How are you feeling now?"
I looked at Ully when he asked that. Napabuntong hininga rin siya ng malakas dahil ngumiti lang ako sa kanya. Simula nung hinila niya ako palayo kila Wren at nang sampalin ko siya, wala na akong narinig na sinabi niya. He just silently followed me. Wala pang nakakakita sakin dito. I don't know pero ayoko rin munang may makakita na nakabalik ako dito.
"Hindi mo pa rin ba ako kakausapin?" he asked again.
I looked at him. Gusto kong magpakacold sa kanya because he won't tell me anything, but I can't. I'm still happy because he's here and he never leaves. "Will you tell me everything?"
"No." mabilis niyang sagot. "Not because I don't want to, pero dahil naguguluhan rin ako sa mga nangyayari. But at least let me help you with some of your questions." He then said. Hindi ko ganon kakilala si Ully but I know na sincere siya sa sinasabi niya. Hindi ko lang rin magets kung bakit hindi niya masabi sakin lahat. Especially kung anong nangyari kay Wren at parang hindi niya maalalang kami pa. Did he really move on?
Well, at least masasagot ang ibang tanong ko. "Why didn't you tell me na magkapatid kayo ni Wren and what happened to him?" I asked.
"You never told me that you were his girlfriend and that you are the princess. Nalaman ko lang bago tayo makuha ni Aurora, remember?" tumango ako. "I really wanted to tell you pero mas gusto kong umisip ng paraan that time kung paano ka maililigtas." I can feel na nagsisisi siya for what happened pero nandiyan na e. I just continued to listen. "I never really knew you before dahil isolated kaming mga wolves sa inyo pero alam kong girlfriend ni Wren ang prinsesa. Lagi ka niyang kinukwento sakin but he never got the chance to introduce us since masyado akong busy sa pack namin, being the Alpha." Tumango ako. Never ko rin siyang nakilala but I know Wren has a brother who died at war when Arunafeltz kingdom attacked us.
"Alam kong mahal na mahal ka ni Wren. He was always proud of you. He always brags about you. He was a werewolf, but he was a puppy when it comes to you." Natatawa niyang sabi. Napangiti nalang rin ako. Alam kong mahal na mahal niya ako ever since and I will always be in love with him too. "And whatever he did today is because of his love for you." Mas lalo niyang nakuha ang atensyon ko sa sinabi niya. "He was never forced to do it. It was what he wanted." Hindi ko na napigilan ang sarili kong maiyak nang dahil sa sinabi niya. He hugged me for a few minutes hanggang sa kumalma ako. Nang maramdaman niyang tumigil ako ay saka siya nagpatuloy sa pagsasalita.
"Para naman sa nangyayari ngayon..." he trailed off. "Hindi ko rin alam kung paano o anong ginawa ni Chelsea. But she was the reason kung bakit tayo nandito."
Pinunasan ko ang pisngi ko habang tumatango. "I know. Red told me na nakaalis siya sa Lost World. She was also the reason kung bakit nasa Lost World si Syndrie." I said. Paano kayang nagagawa niya ang mga ganitong bagay na kahit siguro mga Senior Leaders hindi alam. Meron ba siyang kasama sa ginagawa niya? "Nga pala, so you also knew Red?" I asked him. Kung kilala niya si Chelsea, malamang kilala niya rin ang kapatid nito. Maybe that was the reason kung bakit umpisa palang masyado na siyang cautious kay Red. He just confirmed what I had in mind when he nodded. "Kasabwat niya kaya si Red dito?" I asked again, eagerly to know.
