Princess Metanoia: Unrevealed Truth[Completed]✔️

Chapter 13

Painful Past

AALIYAH

"Ouchie!" Daing ni medura habang naglalakad kami sa masukal na kagubatan. Ang arte arte ng babaeng toh ang sarap pokpokin sa ulo.

"Buti nalang talaga at friends tayo liyah, at kung hindi mag-isa kang pupunta sa papa ko. This is so tiring!" Reklamo uli nito na kina-iling ko.

"Sinabi ko bang sumama ka?"

"Hindi? Wait let me recall."

I shaked my head in annoyance, ang tanga ng babaeng toh nako. Buti nalang talaga at simula pagkabata namin eh kami na magkasama niyan, we are friends. Talagang kilalang kilala na namin ang isa't isa at sanay narin ako sa mga katangahang gimik niyan.

How i remember the day she wanna help me to approach my niece. Talagang ang mga soul eaters pa ang inutusan.

On that day my poor niece was crying loud, talagang nakakaawa siyang tingnan noon dahil hindi manlang siya tantanan ng mga soul eaters. She was just 6 back then what do you expect?

"I'll give you your soul come with me" yan ang mismong salita na binigkas ng mga ito na mas lalong nagpaiyak sa pamangkin ko. Eh ikaw naman kapag kinausap ng gano'n anong iisipin mo? Nakawala yang kaluluwa mo at nasa nakakatakot na nilalang ngayon sa harapan mo?

That was medura's stupid idea.

Mga ilang minuto pa ay nakarating na kami sa gate ng bahay ng ama ni medura. Kaya't napatigil muna kami dito at nagtinginnan bago muling hinarap ang gate.

Do not enter.

May nakaukit na mga letra sa mismong taas ng gate. And That's the exact words in it. Talagang binabalaan na ang mga nilalang na gaya naming wag pumasok dito.

The gate itself was in the color of gold and It's really clean and it looks new. Kaso ang mga bakod na nasa paligid ay mukhang nanggaling pa sa mga panahon nung may mga world war 1 pa. It's spooky due to the fog wondering around us.

"Let's go." Medura smiled opening the gate. It made a creeking noise that made me sigh.

Pumasok kaming dalawa at mas lalong napanganga ng makita ang loob ng bahay ng panginoon na narito. It looks so haunted, well what do you expect from the god's of souls?

"Daddy? Are you in there?" Bunganga ng nasa tabi ko na kinairap ko. "Keep it down, baka mamaya may magambala tayo dito."

"Sorri sorristore." Nag-peace sign ito at humawak sa braso ko.

It's not like It's my first time here. Dito nga kami laging naglalaro ni medura dati ng mga potions ng daddy niya and those days was fun, pero kapag napapagalitan na kami? Those aren't fun.

The door infront of us opened that caught our attention. Unti-unti pa itong bumubukas na kinainis ko at tinulak iyon para mapadali na at wala ng magarbong entrance, nagmamadali kaya kami.

"Galit?" Uncle Sperious spoked.

He is surely like his daughter, magka-ugali silang dalawa kaya't mapapansin mo talagang mag-ama ang mga ito.

"Daddy! I Miss you!" She hugged him making me smile.

But their bond? It's the best thing that one could ask for. Even i would wish a bond like that with my dad, but he's gone for good. At sina ate, medura at winter nalang ang pinagkakaabalahan ko ngayon. Hindi masaya ang pamilyang kinagisnan namin ni ate kaya't ang gusto ko kahit pa ipahamak ko, ay maibigay ko kay winter ang pamilyang pati kami ni ate ay pinanalangin na mapasaamin.

"Bakit pala kayo nandito?" He asked that made me look at him again this time.

Napahinga ako ng malalim tsaka pumasok sa loob ng bahay nito. I invited myself inside that made them follow me.

"Is winter's soul here?"

A moment of silence for all of us inside.

Cause if it wasnt in here then that only means one thing, may nakahanap na sa katawan niya and had revived her. But who would revive her? Only those with the bloods of vampires like us could do such thing. Could it be someone with our blood?

But how could that happen? She died with them years ago..no no no, aaliyah think positive. She'll never come back again. Your safe without her.

"No."

My knee's suddenly felt weak due to the words that came out of his mouth. Impossible.

"B-but How? We haven't revived her yet. Ni hindi nga namin makita ang katawan niya sa buong light world." I stated in disbelief.

"I dont know liyah."

"Paanong hindi mo alam? Your a god." I whispered slowly feeling this rage inside of me. Maybe i was again late! Maybe medura was right, i should have done this shit a long time ago but i didnt, kasi napaka kampante ko.

"Im a god, but that doesnt mean i know everything liyah. I have my limits too, Im still like the rest of you." Lumapit ito sa akin at hinawi ang buhok ko.

"Look at me." I did as he said.

I could see someone else's eyes, someone really close to my heart that made me tear up.

"Mom?"

She smiled at me carressing my Face before sighing. Her white hair that made her more angelic, How could such person replace this beautiful maiden so easily?

"What do you think is the reason why everything is so messed up today?" She asked that made me blink.

Ano nga ba ang rason ng kaguluhan ngayon? How our family suddenly started wrecking apart, how my sister's life suddenly went up side down, my niece..our life. Why is it so messed up?

"Liyah, if you keep on running from the past the more it hunts you."

"The more people it hurts."

Her eyes are smilling, everything about her is loveable she's the sweetest mother i could ever wish for. And the day that we lost her was the day i died, the day me and my sister became the tyrants we are today.

Wala kaming magawa, dahil kapag binalikan namin ang nakaraan mas lalo lang kaming nasasaktan mas lalo lang naisasampal sa amin ang katotohanang ni isang beses hindi kami minahal ng ama namin. Na ni isang beses hindi kami naging isang pamilya. He found his happiness on the arms of others.

Was it wrong to ran away from the pain of the past?

Was it wrong to just forget about it and clear it from my mind? From our minds? But what if its really the reason why we are all suffering today. Pano kung may kinalaman talaga ito sa nangyayari sa buhay ni winter ngayon..am i ready to Face it?

Naramdaman ko ang kamay ni medura sa balikat ko at ang pagngiti sa akin ng ina ko sa mismong harapan ko. Nakangiti lang ito na animo'y hindi nagdanas sa sakit.

"Keep up with your path Ali, She's doing great."

Then she dissapeared. Then reality hits me.

One day..ate dont hate me for hiding the truth for you. And please dont hate winter, ginawa lang niya ang mas makakapag-pa buti sa ating lahat. One day it'll be out but for now, we need to hold on.

"She's at Crownilia Academy." Uncle Sperious spoke that caught my attention once again.

Did i heard that right?

I looked at the ball he's looking at and saw the Academy that he mentioned. She's in there?

Nandoon ang kaluluwa ni winter?
