Reminiscing The Blueprints (COMPLETED)

Chapter 20-Reminiscing

DARK JACOB

"Kuya! Naiihi ako!"

My brows met each other as I glance at my twin. I sighed and showed her a poker face. "E' di umihi ka."

"Ang sama mo!" she pouted. "Dali na, samahan mo 'ko! Katakot oh!"

She even held my other arm so I glared at her. "Ang ingay mo, Jill. Nakakahiya sa namatayan."

We're currently at the funeral of my parent's business partner. Sa pagkakarinig ko, nasunog daw ang katawan ng asawa ng kaibigan nila Dad. I don't even know why are we needed in this kind of situation, I don't even know them.

I sighed and looked at my sister again. She's now pleasing me to accompany her. I held her hand and pulled her somewhere. Gabi na rin kasi kaya hindi rin kakayanin ng konsensya ko kung hahayaan ko siyang mag-isa rito sa mansyon ng mga Levister.

That's the surname I heard a while ago.

I guided Jillian when I saw the comfort room sign. Hinintay ko lang siya sa labas ng banyo. I looked around the pool area in front of me. Katabi lang 'yon ng playhouse na nasunog kung saan namatay ang asawa ng may-ari ng bahay.

Police are all over the place. The area was surrounded with caution signs too. I sighed and let my curiosity derive my own thoughts. Paano nangyaring aksidente ang pagkamatay e' mukhang sadya ito?

I heard the investigation. Wala naman daw niluluto noong mga panahon na 'yon kaya imposibleng may bigla nalang nagpagkitang apoy habang tulog ang biktima.

I shook my head with my own thoughts. At the young age, I could be a lawyer or something. But I know that I'm still lacking of knowledge. I'm just 9 year old by yet I can't help but to get curious with lots of things.

Or maybe I wasn't really going outside our mansion kaya interesado ako sa mga kwento ng ibang bahay. I heavily sighed as I saw the visitors comforting the family of the victim.

"Matagal ka pa ba?" I asked with a hint of irritation.

"Sandali lang, Kuya! Nag-alburoto bigla ang tiyan ko e', wait mo lang ako!" My jaw partly dropped when I hear Jillian's reason. I glared at the CR's door.

Kaya pala ang baho!

Lumayo muna ako ng ilang metro mula sa pinto dahil hindi na kinakaya ng pang-amoy ko. I crossed my arms on my chest and leaned on the wall. I closed my eyes to relax myself but another weird sound happen.

May batang umiiyak sa isang sulok kaya napakunot ang noo ko. I stared at her from a distance. She's crying hard. She's wearing a white dress that is now getting dirty because she's sitting on the grass.

"Mommy...." I heard her say and wiped her tears. "I l-love you, Mommy... I'm sorry..."

Huh? Why is she saying even sorry?

Hindi ko rin alam kung anong pumasok sa 'king kabaitan at bigla-bigla nalang akong naglakad patungo sa kanya. Normally, I wouldn't care about anyone crying because when I'm the one who's tearing up, wala namang umaalo sa 'kin.

I didn't know what came up to me to grow interest on this child in front of me. She's wearing glass that's why I can't determine her eyes' shape. Her hair's on pig tails that's why I tried my best to hide my smile.

She looks cute on that part, though.

I got back to my emotionless face when she glanced at me. I can see that she's shock because of my presence and yet she still didn't care. In fact, she even cried more.

Bahagya akong nainis dahil parang wala siyang paki-alam sa akin e' siya na nga 'tong pinuntahan ko pa rito.

I sighed looked at my wrist watch. Siguro, hindi pa naman tapos ang kapatid ko sa ginagawa niya kaya kakausapin ko na lang muna 'to.
