Epilogue

Leviticus

I sighed for the last time before I dived in again on the pool. Nanuot ang natural na lamig ng tubig sa aking balat, walang pinagkaiba sa lamig ng nararamdaman ko sa mga lumipas na panahon.

I've been living alone, isolated from everybody, away from the noise of the city, and I'm here enjoying my own serenity in the four corners of my house.

After the tragic accident, I blamed myself for everything. Maybe it happened because I was careless, or maybe it happened because I didn't care enough, or maybe it was really supposed to happen for me to see what darkness feels like.

Darkness.

I've been living in darkness. Hanggang sa tumanda ako ay ganito nalang siguro ako, walang pag-asa, mag-isa, nabubuhay ngunit walang buhay. It's so damn ironic but that's how it all goes for me.

I heard some noise inside the house, specific in the kitchen area. I didn't know Legend is gonna visit me tonight. He's been the only one who helps me and cares enough, or maybe he cares because I'm his older brother. Sometimes I would shoo him away, dahil pakiramdam ko ay nagiging pabigat lang ako sa kanya.

Nagbalot ako ng tuwalya at saka nagtungo papasok sa loob. I opened the sliding door but suddenly the noise was... suspiciously gone. Mabagal akong naglakad sa kusina, basa pa ang katawan ko at 'di na napansin kung nababasa ko ang sahig.

"Lej?" I called.

I heard a complete silence, I might not be able to see but I can feel. And my senses are telling me that someone is here, someone not in my knowledge. Kung si Legend ito ay kanina pa ito nagsalita at nagparamdam.

And then I heard a sigh. That's it!

"Sino ka?"

Still, that someone didn't dare to speak out. When you're used to darkness, every other senses that you have gets stronger. That's why I know that someone is hiding from me. Why is he hiding, though? Do I look.... scary? Am I too ugly to look at?

"I won't hurt you. Just tell me who you are."

Nahh, of course it was just a bait, I would still hurt him if he does something unlikely.

"Come out. I won't hurt you.."

After waiting for more than a minute, I heard little footsteps and body movement. Damn, it's so hard tracing in the dark and it's like my chakra is slowly phasing down.

"I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to intrude." and a soft marshmallowy voice came out of nowhere. Fuck, I don't even know why I had to describe it that way. Am I thinking of marshmallow?

And this is a guy, damn. Is he trying to steal something?

Using my extreme senses, I tried to trace down his location, on where he is standing.

"Who are you?"

"P-Pasensya na talaga kung pumasok ako without your permission. Bukas kasi ang gate at ang pintuan."

Now that I have an idea of his location, I stared at him. Based on the spectrum of his voice and the tiny movements he makes, I can say that he's not that tall, and he's probably slim but I can absolutely take him down once he does some crazy things.

"Anong pangalan mo?"

The fuck, why am I doing an interrogation, though? Do I need to remember his name if I'm gonna take him down?

"R-Riley..." he answered with his marshmallowy voice again. Damn, I should stop from that description. I just sounded like a horny bastard.

Well, I'm probably horny because I've been void of sexual relations since... what the fuck, do I really have to think of this now? In this situation, really Levi?
