To Reach You (A Journey To A Whole New World)

Chapter 13 : answers that lead to another mystery

CHAPTER 13

"I know 'him'" sagot ko lang and that really caught his attention

"what do you mean you know him?" naguguluhan niyang tanong

"he's the reason why I'm here in the first place" sagot ko, still not looking at him dahil nagbabasa ako, which in fact is very helpful dahil ang dami kong nalalaman sa barabas kong kapatid

"what do you mean?" still naguguluhan pa din niyang tanong

"why do you keep asking me such questions" sabi ko pagtapos kong bumuntong hininga at hinarap ko na siya nakita ko naming natigilan ito, yet, despite that he still got this domineering aura

"it's too complicated for you" sabi lang niya which is really weird, bakit ba ganto ang mga tao dito sa Siena napakamalihim, pwede namang sabihin ng diretsa nagpapasikot sikot pa lalo tuloy gumugulo

"Nothing's too complicated for me. Besides what's so complicated about my brother?" naguguluhang tanong ko

"y-your brother?" mas naguguluhan pang tanong niya

Napabuntong hiniga pa muli ako bago ako nakapagsalita "first of you're asking me why I was able to get a hold of these off limit articles, now these? Are you freakin' kidding me? Surely you know na kapag ang isang bagay dito sa Campus ay off limits and it concerns someone, the only possible way you could get a hold of the documents or whatever it is we're talking about is if you're related" mahabang paliwanag ko, jusmiyo, ano bang nangyayare dito sa taong to, he's from the Black Knights, and he's one of the higher officials there kung makapagtanong naman to

"h-how?' naguguluhan pa ding tanong nito hay buhay anyare ba sa brain cells nitong taong to, sayang ang gwapo pa naman tapos slow, o baka naiwanan niya lang kung saan?

"Need I say it all?" I then sighed "my name is Genevere Ezeriah, and yes Travis Schneider , more popularly known as 'Schneider the great demon or the dark prince' is my brother, happy now?" mahabang paliwanag ko with a flat face na walang kaemo emosyon, di ko din naman siya masisisi LECRI ang gamit ko

He stared at me like I was some sort of lunatic, and when he recovered, he cleared his throat and spoke "I am Sigmond Dimitri Petrov, the head of the Black Knights, pardon my rudeness" he then said, and gulo naman niya, kanina parang lutang tapos ngayon biglang naging normal na?

When he left, I continued what I was doing, and then when I got satisfied with what I found out, bumalik ako sa librarian and then thanked her after giving her my card, paglabas ko sa building habang papunta sana sa cafeteria, hindi nakaligtas sakin ang pangalan ni kuya sa isang area na may glass display na puro mga awards and recognitions, at nung nilapitan ko yun, di nga ako nagkamali, buong pangalan na ni kuya yung nakasulat eh, pero ang nakakapagtaka e bakit Travis Schneider Luschner na ang nakalagay samantalang kelan lang naman napalitan surname namin ah?

****

"o ano nakahanap ka?" salubong sakin ni Sierra pagkaupong pagkaupo ko

"yeah, and indeed, yung Schneider na kilala niyo at ang Schneider na kilala ko ay iisa, I wonder why he didn't tell me, I could've understood" paliwanag ko

"believe me, there's more to this school than what beats the eye, every corner, every mystery is a story, every mystery is a person, and every riddle is a clue" makahulugang sabi ni Alana, batukan ko kaya? Nagsisimula nanaman eh

"English please" reklamo ni Sierra

"intindihinmo kaya" sagot ni Alana

"tinatamad ang brain cells ko kaya itranslate mo!" reklamo ni Sierra
