Chapter 65: The Truth

LLUVIA'S POV

"I've been expecting you. Lluvia" the woman wearing a lab coat said

"Who the heck are you?" I asked

Kasi naman. This place is mysterious plus SHE is also mysterious and the girl with a messy hair is more mysterious than heck.

Sumasakit na ang ulo ko dito ha.

"I'm-"

Naputol ang sinasabi nya ng bigla na lamang may nagsisigaw.

"Stop, touching me you crazy girl!! Argghh let go!! Bushii bushii!(No No) I can walk on my own you know!!" sigaw ng kung sino and it's coming in this way.

Pagpasok nito.

Wait the heck. Esmeralda???

Kasulukuyan syang hawak-hawak sa braso nung babaeng magulo ang buhok papasok rito sa may loob.

She glares at the girl with messy hair pagkatapos ay binawi ang brasong hawak-hawak nito.

Then she fixes her hair na nagulo dahil sa pagpupumiglas nya kanina.

After that, her eyes met mine then she look at me in disbelief.

"Wait. Paanong nandito ka rin ha-" she suddenly paused when she turns her look to the woman beside me na hanggang ngayon hindi ko pa rin kilala because that bullshit woman suddenly shouts and came in.

"Helia? Wait. Andri? Why the two of you is here?" naguguluhang tanong nya

"I should be the one asking you that question. Tell me, sinusundan mo ba ako?" I asked her

"What? Excuse me, miss. Im done with you kaya bakit naman kita susundan pa. After all, my plans are all ruined pero dito pa rin pala ang patak ko." she said

"Ok. Bago pa kayo mag-away. Maybe I should start explaining." singit nung Helia

"Ok, then start explaining who you are" sabi ko.

"I'm Helia. Just like Esmeralda. I'm also Avia's bestfriend. We are the trio known for this." she said then points to the screen.

Whatever. Hindi ko naman alam kung anong meron don. What's important for me now, ay yung mismong pakay ko.

"Well, I'm expecting you two actually. Thank you for accepting my invitation." she said

"Duh. You call this an invitation?" Esmeralda said pagkatapos ay pinakita yung gusot-gusot na papel na sa tingin ko pinaglagyan din ng address

"I can't blame her. You ain't the one worth giving a fancy invitation." I said.

Napataltak naman si Esmeralda.

"But lets get to the point. Ano nga bang ginagawa natin dito?" I asked

"You want Perseus back right?" Helia asked

"Wait. Don't you say that Perseus has a back-up chip or so what ever?!" singit ni Esmeralda

"Gran-Gran told me everything. That this damn woman broke Perseus and her bullshit game and plans" Helia said

"She deserves it well. Hindi man maramdaman ni Avia ang naramdaman ko atleast naiparamdam ko sa anak nya ang pakiramdam ng nawalan." Esmeralda said.

"Alam ko lahat ng katarantaduhan mo Esmeralda! Sa tingin mo ba hindi ako handa? Do you really know what you're saying?" Helia once again said

"Naguguluhan ako. Helia are you staying here in my Mom's lab ever since?" I asked

"Yup. Sa akin nya binigay ang pag-aalaga ng lab na ito bago siya umalis para sunduin ka dati. We are on our current invention back then nung tumawag ka before the accident kaya ako ang napagbilinan nya." she said

"What current invention?! Kumampi ka na rin pala kay Avia dati pa. I thought you were on my side back then!" sigaw ni Esmeralda

"Look. Wala akong kinakampihan ok? Im helping you two both. Hindi mo lang alam pero tinutulongan ka namin Esmeralda, right from the start but we decided to keep it a secret." sabi ni Helia

"Anong tulong ang sinasabi mo dyan? Helping me to be down more? Ha?" Esmeralda ask sarcastically.

"What are you saying Esmeralda?! Talagang sarili mo lang iniisip ko habang kami ni Avia. We are here trying to save your son tapos sinira mo pa ang buhay nya?!" Helia shouted

Son? Teka. Nabanggit nga pala ni Bunella ang nawalang anak ni Esmeralda. Anong connect non sa ngayon?

Natigilan saglit si Esmeralda.

"What are you talking about? My son?" tanong nya

"Why don't you look closer here?" sabi ni Helia

Pumunta sya sa parteng puro machine kaya sumunod ako at saka si Esmeralda.

May isang malaking machine ang pinakamaliwanag sa kanila at saka madaming tubo ang nakaconnect rito.

I look even closer and-

P-please tell me this is not him.

Kaagad na tumulo ang mga luha sa mata ko.

Isang lalaking nakatrap sa glass-like machine full of water at sobrang daming tube ang nakaconnect rito.

It's like the machine is the only one that sustain it's life.

Tumingin ako kay Helia and I think she read the question in my mind. She slightly nod at me.

[pccto: google (pinapakita ko lang ang ibigsabihin ko)]

Hindi ako pwedeng magkamali. It really looks like him. Pero bakit parang wala syang buhay?

"P-perseus???" my mouth uttered as I leaned on the glass

I looked at Helia with my teary eye.

"P-pero p-paano?" I asked her

"Perseus does exist, Lluvia. The microchip is his temporary life. Utak nya talaga ang gamit sa pagrun ng chip. Parang naging soul lang nya ang microchip but now it's like he's dead pagwala ang micr chip na yon. He is not totally programmed. Sorry kung kailangan pa naming magsinungaling." she said

Then she looks at Esmeralda who is also in shocked too.

"Sya ang nawawalang anak mo, Esmeralda. Yeah, you heard it right. You almost killed your own son." Helia said.

Napatakip ng bibig si Esmeralda then kneed on the ground as tears run down on her face.

"We are sorry kung pinaabot pa namin ng ganto. It's just that, it's also Perseus' choice to stay as a virtual. Hindi ko inaasahan na mangyayari pa 'to at aabot pa tayo sa ganto. I am really sorry." Helia said

I still can't believe it. Perseus is existing!
