*Aphrodite's Point of View
Hindi ko naman maiwasan na mapangisi ulit nang maaala ko ang tinanong sa akin ni Zack kanina na naging dahilan para magpaikot-ikot ako sa inuupuan ko.
Napahawak naman ako sa puso ko nang bigla kong maramdaman ang bahagyang pagtibok nito ng mabilis, kapag naaalala ko yung nangyari kanina. Then, I almost found myself chuckling under beneath my breath whenever I remember how he asked me that question.
My, my, Zack.
"You know, you seemed pretty relaxed after they knew everything about you."
Agad namang nawala ang ngiti at ngisi ko nang maramdaman kong pumasok sila Crimson at sila Lee dito sa kwarto ko kasabay nang paglapit nila sa akin. I immediately gave them an assuring grin, the moment they all sat and surrounded me with their concerned looks.
It made me to mentally rolled my eyes.
"Lee, we know Eve more than they do."Mas lalo naman akong napangiti nang nakakaloko nang sabihin 'yon ni Roge at akbayan ako.
"It's about him, isn't it?"I eventually gave Roge a glare and removed his arms around me the moment he said that.
"Eve, that guy surely is going to be head over heels about you."
Mas lalo ko naman sinamaan ng tingin nang sumingit si Red at binigyan ako ng isang ngisi habang inaayos ang buhok niya.
"Oh, he is alright."Blue butted in as well and gave the looks that made me eventually rolled my eyes to them.
"We can already see that."Azu and Bri butted in as well at the same time.
Napailing nalang ako sa kanila.
Agad ko naman napansin na nanahimik sa isang tabi si Crimson at nakatingin lang sa akin ng seryoso.
It immediately made me to shook my head in disbelief and look back at him, as well. Ever since I saw how he prevented everything back at the Alum, he eventually couldn't stop himself looking from me with those concerned eyes.
Crimson being the eldest among us witnessed me grew up, and that made him to memorized every single thing about me ever since I was born.
That's one of the reason why I couldn't really helped myself but to smirk and grin at the same time, the moment Zack asked me his question.
He knew that I was watching them when he approached Zack awhile ago.
Besides, it's better if they already knew.
"Crimson, stop giving her the looks."Rage suddenly butted in. Agad naman siyang napaismid nang marinig niya 'yon bago muling bumalik sa pagtingin sa akin.
"Are you willing to give him your heart?"
I don't know why, but it just made me to smirk out of nowhere instead of feeling so problematic about how should I react with his question. My, my.
"What do you think?"Nakita ko siyang ngumisi nang marinig ang sinabi ko.
"Wow, I can't believe you."Mas lalo naman agad akong napangisi dahil sa naging reaksyon nina Azu at Bri.
"Then let's just see how should he prove himself to you, right Eve?"He finally spoke up that made me raised an eyebrow at him.
That's my brother.
Sabay-sabay naman silang napailing nang sabihin ni Crimson 'yon sa akin na ngayon ay nakangisi na rin. I eventually stood up from my seat after seeing them how they reacted and immediately make my way towards the door.
"I couldn't agree more, brother."
That was the last thing I said to them before leaving them inside.

*Lee's Point of View
I eventually found myself shaking my head off in an unbelievably manner the moment Eve left her own room and left us here after hearing what she said. I placed one of my arms at the back of my head and suddenly grin while gradually drinking my iced coffee.
"Man, I really can't believe her."
Naagaw naman ng atensyon ko si Rage na kumakain na naman ng lollipop nang sabihin niya 'yon, kasabay nang paglakad niya patungo sa kama ni Eve at hindi nagdalawang isip na humiga.
I make faced. Eve's going to kill him.
"That's our Aphrodite for you."Ngisi naman nina Sky at Flame habang nakatutok sa mga gadgets nila. Hindi ko naman napigilan na mas lalong ngumisi nang marinig ulit ang pangalan niya na Aphrodite. It's been a while, alright.
"She even seemed to be pretty hyped out with what's happening."Triton shrugged while eating out he's ferrero chocolate. Lahat naman kami ay napatingin sa kaniya.
"Let's just see what's going to happen next."Crimson suddenly butted in while fixing his specs and gradually stood up making his way towards the balcony of Eve's room.
"You know, you're pretty intimidating when you asked him that."I suddenly spoke up that made him eventually look at me with a grin plastered on his face. Napailing ako dahil sa naging reaksyon niya sa sinabi ko. He sure really knows Eve pretty well.
"Eventually, we all know that they'll both fell for each other."
Napatingin naman agad ako kay Roge nang sabihin niya 'yon at kasabay nang pagkahiga niya sa tabi ni Rage ay ngumisi siya bago tumingin sa amin.
"It's pretty ironic how we expected that."Sabat ko at sabay na nagkibit-balikat.
"Lee, like what I said. We know Eve better than they do."Binigyan ko naman ng isang sama ng tingin si Roge nang sabihin niya ulit 'yon.
He eventually shook his head the moment the saw I gave him the glare.
"Man, now that I remember how he really got provoked whenever we sticked around with Eve."Roge suddenly said that made him get up from the bed and look at Triton.
"That guy's really unpredictable. Imagine how he fell for her just by being clueless."Ngumisi naman si Triton nang marinig niya ang sinabi ni Roge.
"He should be ready enough to risk everything once she gave him her heart."
Agad naman silang napatingin sa akin nang sabihin ko 'yon. Binalik ko naman sa kanila ang tingin nila at sabay na ngumisi na naging dahilan para lahat sila ay magtinginan.
"We don't want Eve gave her heart to someone who's not willing to risk everything, aren't we?"
"Oh, I'm pretty sure he already knows that."Crimson suddenly turned his gaze towards us after hearing what I said.
He eventually smirked when he gradually look at his watch, afterwards.
"Besides, I don't think Eve will let someone have her heart if she herself knows that he's not willing to risk enough."Muling tumingin sa amin si Crimson na may ngisi parin sa mukha niya.
It was also that moment when we all look at each other.
"Eve's going to kill him, before it could ever happen."
