Black Wings: Raven Heart (Book 3)

Chapter 44 - Confession

All I could hear is the clanging of their weapons and the growling of the dark shadows.

I'm slowly losing my consciousness.

"Jacky, stay with me."sabi ni Nathan while lightly shaking me.

Ramdam ko ang lamig ng semento sa likod ko.

"N-Nathan.."

Don't close your eyes! You must stay awake!

I'm doing my best.

I heard flapping of wings. My eyes are getting blurry and as I tilt my head to look for those who just arrived, narinig ko ang boses nina kuya Angelo at Jace.

"Kailangan na nating umalis."kuya Angelo

"Jackilyn.."sabi ni Jace as he held me close to him.

Tumayo na si Nathan at nilabas nya ang espada nya.

"Let's go."Nathan

I felt being lifted up as Jace carried me on his arms.

I'm so tired. Gusto ko nang matulog.

No! Don't sleep yet! Not yet! You hear me?!

Hindi ko alam kung gaano katagal kami nasa ere, naramdaman ko na lang na hinihiga ako ni Jace sa higaan.

Can I rest now?

Oo, safe na tayo dito.

And slowly, my mind started to go blank.

↭Jace↭

Inihiga ko na si Jackilyn sa higaan nya, at ang mabilis nyang paghinga kanina ay nagsimulang maging normal.

The marks are on her neck already, and it started to climb up her face.

Hinawakan ko ang malambot nyang pisngi. She look so peaceful and away from pain.

"Naging dark shadows ang ibang souls."rinig kong sabi ni Angelo kay Nathan.

Yes, the bad souls turned into dark shadows, this is not new to me. I've seen this before.

"Paano na? Babalik na ba tayo sa inyo?"Nathan

"Hindi pa, pupuntahan ko lang sina Tito Ramon at Tita Luna. Nandito lang sila sa mundo ng mga tao."Angelo

"And we should probably not involve Antoinette and the others. This is dangerous than before."Nathan

"I know.. Aalis lang ako, bantayan nyo sya ng mabuti."Angelo

Lumabas si Angelo gamit ang pintuan, mag eelevator lang yata sya.

We locked all the windows and placed two chairs dito sa silid ni Jackilyn, pero nasa may higaan nya ako nakaupo.

I removed the hair that's covering her face, held her hand and prayed that she'll be alright.

"You really do love her ha."biglang tanong ni Nathan that caught me off guard.

Hindi ako nakasagot dahil sa bilis ng tibok ng puso ko. I didn't even looked at him.

"Alam ko naman kasing hindi talaga kayong dalawa, but look at you, nakadikit ka parati sa kanya, you're always worried about her, you look happy when you are with her, you did not even notice that your arm is bleeding."dagdag nya.

Doon ko lang naramdaman yung sakit from my wound, my sleeve turned red from my blood.

"Paki bantayan muna si Jackilyn."sabi ko at tumayo na ako.
