Vault Of Heaven (MNL Boys Series # 1)

Chapter 28

#VOH C-28

Our operation of giving relief goods finally ended. On their flight test, Venus was so dumbfounded and occupied. I've never seen her like this. It's either she's occupied or she's angry, there's no in between. Maybe she's on her period. I was told that most women are not in their good moods when they suffer from period cramps and bleed themselves to death.

Sinubukan ko siyang kausapin pero hindi siya sumasagot. Commander Vasman's brows even furrowed when Venus wasn't able to answer his question. Palagi siyang lutang kaya nagdalawang-isip pa sina Commander Vasman kung isasabay ba nila si Venus sa flight test o hindi. But Venus must've knew what the Commanders are about to decide kaya agad siyang umiling at sinabing kaya niya. We were doubtful to make her enter the jet plane, it would be risky for her safety if she's too occupied during flight testing.

Commander Vasman clasped his hands and was smiling proudly while looking at the flying aircraft where Venus is. Our lips also parted while looking at the jet plane. She was flying up to the sky with no problem, it was fucking flawless and smooth! Nang nakalapag siya ay agad namin siyang sinalubong.

"Wow, damn Pilot, you nailed it!" Commander Vasman shook his head in amusement.

"I told you, I could still fly with no problem, that's my forte right there," Venus simply smirked and removed her helmet.

The other crew were also in awe, none of us expected that she would still be that good! Despite of being occupied for days, she still managed to control that plane without sweat. That is really her forte right there.

We complimented her while entering back to the headquarters. We did a toast to celebrate our last day here. Our missions and purposes have done well, it was worth celebrating for. Before our leave, we decided to create a bonfire in an open space so we could gather around it. Besides, this will be our last day before saying goodbye to this nation.

Venus and I are preparing the marshmallows while sitting at some boxes. The open space was quite untidy. May mga kinakalawang na mga materyales sa tabi- tabi, those were some parts of an aircraft that got wrongly made. There were also plastics and bubble wraps that scattered around the place.

"Look at that stupi---what the frick?" Venus whispered while looking at the lieutenant who was burning a bubble wrap to fire up the branches. Sumusulyap ito sa'kin at ngumunguso habang sinusubukan pa ring gumawa ng apoy.

Umiling ako at pinagpatuloy nalang ang ginagawa, but Venus keeps on expressing her hatred and annoyance towards the lieutenant kaya tumango-tango nalang ako kahit wala naman talagang pakialam sa mga sinasabi niya. She's been so noisy and vocal about how she loathes that lieutenant so I was somehow used to it already.

We were looking at her while she's trying to lit up the gathered twigs. The Commanders were putting the scattered plastics and bubble wraps together so the area wouldn't look so messy. Marahas na rin ang bawat pagtuhog ni Venus sa mga marshmallows.

Venus scoffed. "Ironic how people endlessly destroy our earth and be shocked when nature acts up."

"Wow! I made it!" the Flight Lieutenant exclaimed and smiled widely. Nagliyab na ang mga sanga at lumaki na ang apoy na ginawa niya. Muli siyang naglagay ng bubble wrap doon.

Venus' brows furrowed and she immediately went to the lieutenant when it was about to throw the gathered plastics and bubble wraps into the bonfire.

"You made what? Made me pissed?" Venus rolled her eyes. "Why would you throw those things on the fire?!"

The Flight Lieutenant looked at her in fear at agad na binaba ang mga plastics. She conciously looked around like she was deeply embarrassed.

"Calm down, Pilot," Dr. Sketchley laughed at Venus' pissed face.
