The Call (Enzo & Aiane)
Enzo Alexander
He jolted out from his bed; panting and sweating. His room was dark. A cold feeling started to crept up his spine and he didn't like it.
He slid off to the edge of his bed, his feet touching the cold floor of his room. He breathed in a heavy breath, put his elbows against his thigh beforing cupping the side of his head in both hands.
What just happened?
Everything felt so real.
The image if Aiane— lifeless in his arms— was so vividly clear, his hands started to get numb.
Athena!
Mabilis siyang tumayo sa kama at lumabas ng kwarto. The hallway was dark, it was eerily quiet but nothing felt wrong or anything.
Pagkasara niya ng pinto ay sakto naman na pagbukas ng pinto ng kambal.
Nagkatinginan sila pareho.
Ezra blinked and frowned. "What are you doing at this late hour, Enzo Alexander?"
Nagtataray na naman ang kambal niya.
Bago pa man makapagsalita ang kambal niya ay inunahan na niya ito.
"Ezra, what year it is?"
Mas lalong nangunot ang noo ng kambal, "Ano trip mo?"
"Just answer my question," seryosong sabi niya lang.
Pinagtaasan siya saglit ng kilay ni Ezra, bago sumagot, "Twenty nine ninety seven."
His jaw clenched.
"Bakit? Is there something wrong?"
He inhaled sharply. He's going to ask a dreadful question, that would either make him or break him.
"Where's Aiane?"
Ezra pursed her lips and looked away.
He balled his fist before taking in another breath. He walked past his twin and down the stairs.
"Hey, where do you think you're going?" ani Ezra na sinusundan pala siya pababa. "Enzo! Stop!"
Pero hindi na siya nakinig. He wanted to see for himself, so he's going over to the Sinclaire Manor.
Someone pulled him by the arm— si Ezra.
Hinarap siya nito sa kanya at inirapan.
"Just what the hell is happening to you, Pangit?"
"Nothing," pinal na sagot niya bago tumalikod ulit.
"Hey!" hinarap na naman siya ni Ezra at mas lalong inirapan. Oh, his twin sister's pissed alright. "We're not done talking yet, I'm older than you. You listen to me."
He exasperatedly sighed. "Yea, like for a few seconds. Seriously, Ezra, I have no time for this. I need to go."
"Where are you going?" madiin na tanong nito.
"Doesn't matter." tatalikod na sana ulit siya pero hinablot ni Ezra ang braso niya. Na naman.
"It does!" giit nito. "I need to know where the hell are you going at this wee hours, Enzo." she demanded.
"Sleep it off, Ez."
"You are not going anywhere in my watch, Enzo Alexander."
Humugot siya nang malalim na hininga, at ilang porsyentong pasensya para sa makulit at nagtataray na kambal.
