XEINA

FLASHBACK

"Love, kailangan kong umuwi mamaya. Pinapauwi ako ni Papa," sabi ko kay Vhax habang nakayakap sa kaniya. We just finished making love so we were both naked under the sheets.

Wala siyang sinabi na kung ano. He planted a kiss on my forehead and let out a heavy sigh. I know he didn't really wanted me to leave. Ayoko rin naman. Mas gusto kong manatili na lang sa tabi niya. But I need to. Hindi pwedeng malaman ni Daddy na may relasyon kami ng mortal niyang kaaway.

"I'll be back as soon as I can," I whipered pero wala siyang naririnig.

"You know I'll follow you wherever you go," he said. Hinampas ko ang dibdib niya.

"Alam mong hindi pwede. I don't want to risk your life," I said. Sa oras na makita siya ni Daddy paniguradong papatayin siya nito. I don't want that to happen. As much as possible, I want to stop the war between them.

Our relationship was really complicated. He is a vampire while I am a human. We were not compatible, We were not for each other. But, we are still inside our dream, that we could be together despite of our difference with each other. We could be together as long as we love each other.

I am a very hopeless romantic. I believe in true love. I'd been dreaming to have my own prince since I was young. Indeed, I fell in love with a prince. Prince of vampires, my father's mortal enemy.

My Dad is the head of the vampire hunters. He wanted to take his revenge because my mom got killed by a vampire. But it was his fault! My mom shouldn't died if he had been a good father and husband! He doesn't treat me as his daughter. I was like one of his pet to him.

I don't want to be with him kaya umalis ako. After highschool, I went to my lola-in my mother side-and stayed with him. That's where I met him. My very own prince.

"Xe! Dalian mo! Magsisimula na ang laro!" sigaw ni Anna mula sa labas. Anna Quizon is my bestfriend. Anak siya ng isa sa mga tauhan ng tatay ko. But like me, he doesn't want to be part of that group. That's why kasama ko siya ngayon.

May laro raw ngayon ng basketball ngayon sa may eskwelahan. Sabi ay ang magkapatid daw na Belzer ang maglalaro. Since I'm new here, I don't know them pero mukhang sikat sila at inaabangan dito.

Pumunta kami ni Anna sa may court para manood. We are both curious as hell. Nasa baba ang court pero wala nang upuan sa baba dahil sa sobrang daming tao. Kaya nandito lang kami sa itaas pumwesto kahit na ginigitgit din kami dahil sa dami ng tao.

Puno ng sigawan ang lugar.

"Go, Vhax! We love you!"

"Magnus! Magnus!"

Halos mabingi kaming dalawa ni Anna sa tilian. Knowing her, ayaw niya ng maiingay at magugulo. Inis na tiningnan ang nasa likod namin na kung makasigaw ay parang nakalunok ng microphone.

"Look who's here," biglang sabi ng lalaking tumabi kay Anna. I knew him. Classmats namin siya ni Anna. What is his name again? Martin?

Biglang naghiyawan ang mga tao. Mas malakas pa kanina. May lumabas kasi mula sa kanan na mga lalaki. Naagaw ang atensyon ko ng lalaking nakaitim. He had this dark brown eyes. Pinaningkit ko ang mata ko. He's familiar. I think I saw him somewhere.

"Magnusss!" Hiyawan ng lahat. Lalo na nang maghubad ito nang pang-itaas na parang walang nagtitilian at nagkakakita sa kaniya.

"Belzer brothers. Sikat sila sa bayang ito dahil sa obvious naman na kagwapuhan nila. Matulungin din sila rito. Halos lahat ng kabataan dito ay sila ang nagpapaaral, binigyan nila ng scholarship, lalo na iyong mga walang-wala sa buhay, binibiyan din nila ng negosiyo, ang iba ay nagtra-trabaho sa hacienda at mga mansion nila." Pagkwe-kwento ni Martin.
