Chapter 7: Impact
Empress' POV
"Stop. I'm not done talking with you." Agad siyang tumigil sa paglalakad. Mabilis ko pa siyang hinabol nang lumayo siya agad sa akin nang makita ko ang benda niya sa kanyang pulsuhan. Ang saglit niyang pagtingin sa akin kanina bago ako lampasan ay puno ng kaseryosohan. Seryosong tingin na para sa akin ay misteryo.
Nakita ko ang simpleng pagangat ng kanyang balikat na tila huminga ng malalim at saka humarap sa akin nang may kakaibang ngiti at kislap sa mata. A familiar stare and smile that I used to see before.
"So now gusto mo nang makausap ang gwapong ako?"
Agad akong tumigil sa sinabi niya at di ko na naiwasang magtaas sa kanya ng kilay. My expressions exposed voluntary with his boastful words. And his mood, it changes immediately.
"Wow. Pinansin mo ang sinabi ko? Are you now in love with me? Sabihin mo lang at sasagutin na kita agad agad. Ngayon na."
I left out a sigh at bahagyang tinitigan ang kanyang dalawang kamay na kanina pa niyang inilagay sa magkabilang bulsa ng suot niyang pantalon. Saglit ko lang iyon na natitigan pero alam kong maaaring posible ang nasa isip ko.
"Tell me. Did you went in Empire Society?" Ang kaninang ngiti niya ay biglang naglaho at maski ang mata niya ay tila naging blangko nang marinig ang tanong ko. Mukhang hindi niya inaasahan ang tanong ko.
"Yes." At mas hindi ko inaasahang sasagutin niya ako ng ganito kaseryoso. His eyes tells me how honest he is right now.
"Did you just try to stabbed me?" Walang emosyon kong tanong na ikinahinga niya ng malalim.
"You're really you. You didn't even ask me first kung bakit nakabenda ang pulsuhan ko. You just asked straightly since you're really suspecting me. But kung sasagutin ko ba ang tanong mo. Will you spare my life Ms. Empress Fuschia Morrigan or Ms. Fuschia Regina?"
My chest suddenly felt pain with his words. It feels like he was so disappointed with me. And my name, how can he know about my name that I used back in Empire High? And how can he state my name sounding so much like that? So much like him.
"You're lost again with your thoughts. I'm already here. I'm supposed to find you and take you back home." Agad akong napatingin sa kanya.
"Hey. What I was trying to say is let's go back in Empire High." Natahimik ako. Kung hindi niya iyon sinabi, hindi maklaklaro ang nasa isip ko dahil inaamin ko. I thought that somehow things will be possible.
