Black Section

Chapter 44

Lunox’s Point of View

“Are you two fighting again?” Odette suddenly showed up. He distanced himself. My heart stopped beating loudly and fast. I heaved a sigh. I mouthed thank you to Odette. She was confused but if it wasn’t for her, I wouldn’t escape the situation.

Is he playing with my feelings? What’s the sudden confession? Is he serious about it? When and where did he fall in love with me? Is it the day when we first met?

I held my head. This is a headache. There’s Gusion and Leomord was added to the list. I don’t understand both of them! Are they playing with me?! Fvck. This is more exhausting.

“Ehem,” Ruby stated. I looked at her. “Another confession! I heard Leomord’s confession to you. Two of the best students of Black Section fell for you. Your charm is incredible,” she added. Then, she gave me this weird look.

“I won’t tell you anything,” I said.

“Come on! I thought we’re friends! You and Leomord have met before and he fell in love with you at first sight. While you and Gusion became closer and suddenly he realized without him knowing that he’s already mad in love with you. This is a tough decision to make but I’m on Gusion’s side because it’s like a typical high school love story!” She said and giggled. “I like Leo for Lu. Leo’s on a whole different level and they knew each other since they were young. They also have the same job and they worked in the same place. They matched perfectly!” Selena appeared out of nowhere.

“No, Gusion is better! He got skills too! He can create his organization of his own!” Ruby defended.

“An organization where innocent people will be killed? No thanks,” Selena said. “Leo’s started from the bottom. He experienced a lot of obstacles and hardships yet he strived to reach the top. Gusion’s doesn’t deserve to be his match,” added Selena. I went in between of them. “Stop. Our priority is not about whether who will I choose. Focus on our plan. Mask Man, I mean Sir Franco is still on the loose. We’ll discuss this matter after all of these are done,” I said.

“Hmp!” reacted Ruby.

“Tsk,” reacted Selena. They walked on separate ways. I sat down. This got more complicated now that they have discovered about Leomord and Gusion’s confession to me. Just fvck love.

“You set your priorities, huh. I like that,” said Odette and sat beside me. She took a bite of the apple that she’s holding.

“Although this isn’t the right time for love because we’re in the middle of a tragedy that will about to happen,” she said and laughed. “We’re still high school students where we experienced our first love, confession and heartbreak,” she said. She glanced at me. Then, she hugged me. “Choose what your heart desires. Not all the time we have to follow our mind. Sometimes it’s alright if we let our emotions flow. Stop hurting yourself because you knew that once you keep on closing your heart to others, they’ll eventually leave but will that make you happy? No. Open your heart and learn to accept other’s love,” she said and tapped my back. Then, she distanced herself and smiled. She took another bite. “This is my advice for you. If you have problem that regards to relationship, just call me. I’ll be your love adviser,” she said. Choose my heart’s desire. I’ll keep that in mind.

“Break time’s over, guys! Pack your things. We’re leaving,” announced Lancelot.

“Why is it so soon?” asked Odette.

“Leo’s order. He’s an early bird, remember? He doesn’t want to be late,” he said in a low tone.

“It’s always his habit. I should have get used to it,” said Odette and stood. “Prepare your things now, Lu. We’ll leave Camp Royalwood Forest and we’ll go back to school. You know what that means,” she said. I also stood up.
