GHIGH: LAY YOUR HANDS ON ME

Chapter 25: Lay Your Hands On Me

Alyx's Point of View

Mae and Vin can't believe what they are seeing right now. Bahagya lang naman akong nagulat nang makitang nakatayo si Kade sa harapan namin. He's not wearing the suit that I saw earlier. Nakasuot s'ya ngayon ng itim na topcoat, sa loob nito ay gray t-shirt lang and black skinny jeans.

"You're here to save us, right?" Bakas sa tono ng boses ni Mae ang saya. Tinignan ko lang naman s'ya gamit ang gilid ng mata ko at ngumisi.

If you just only know.

"So, you're a Wicked-Shadow now?" Tanong naman ni Vin kahit alam na nito ang isasagot ni Kade.

"Hoy, Vin! Ano bang sinasabi mo r'yan?" Sigaw ni Mae kay Vin. Nakikinig lang ako sa kanila. Wala pang kaalam-alam si Mae sa mga nangyayari kaya umaakto s'ya ng ganito.

Hindi naman s'ya pinansin ni Vin. Nakatuon lang ang tingin n'ya kay Kade at naghihintay itong magsalita.

"If one of you try to escape, Wicked-Shadow kills people without even a second thought." I'm still on my poker face when he turn his gazed on me. "There's no need to escape. We're going to return you in GHigh." He ended. Tumalikod na ito para umalis ngunit nagsalita ako.

"What you're planning to do with us?" Mahina kong tanong sapat na para marinig n'ya at nang mga nakatayong bantay.

I'm waiting for his answer but I don't receive any. I gasped after I turn my head down. It is not because of what he did but because of my stomach. Nararamdaman ko ulit yung ginawang pagsuntok sakin nung lalaki sa truck. That's actually aching!

"Wait, tama ba yung narinig ko? S-si Kade... member na ng Wicked-Shadow?" Mae questioned.

"Stop questioning what's really obvious." I said. Sandali ko s'yang nilungunan at napansin ko ang dumudugong tagiliran nito. "Wait, you okay?"

She wince then smile. "I'm fine. Mababaw lang naman 'to. Don't worry about me."

Natahimik ako ng bahagya bago bumuntong-hininga at ibaling sa iba ang tingin. "I'm not worried."

"Oh, I thought you were but, thanks for asking."

Hindi naman na ako sumagot nang sabihin n'ya yon. I'm losing my strength at this moment. Nangangalay na rin ang pwet ko sa pag-upo, my back's also hurting.

Halos mahigit dalawang oras na siguro kaming nakatingin lang sa mga bantay na pinapanuod kami. Hindi ko alam kung anong mga itsura nila. I can't even guess if they're literally watching us or they're napping. We're also not opening our mouth 'coz we're saving strenght. This is not gonna end like this.

"What now?"

Gamit ang gilid ng mata ko, tinignan ko ang nagsalitang si Mae. Her lips starting to pale and her sweats are falling down to her neck.
