Chapter 30 : His Apology

Herse's Point Of View

"Since when do you side with NHIA? ", he asked then crossed his arms.

I shrugged my shoulders and looked at Coach Elara.

[ FLASHBACK ]

"Master", I bowed my head when I entered his Lounge and I saw Coach Elara in one of the King's sofas in front of his coffee table.

"Coach", I greeted her and she just nodded as response. I walked towards her and sat beside her.

"Pinatawag kita, Herse dahil may kailangang sabihin si Elara", panimula nito. "It's about the soccer game, tama ba?" tanong nito kay Coach kaya tumango ito.

Pero bago pa magsalita si Ezra ay nagsalita na ako. "Master. Bakit po ako 'yung pinatawag po ninyo?"

Tumaas naman ang kilay ni Master kaya napatungo ako. "What do you mean?"

"I mean, you should've chose Metis because he's the most respected guard and he's the team captain. I don't understand--"

"I chose you because Metis doesn't understand my word sometimes. He ignores them often, too and makes a plan for his satisfaction either."

Yes, he's right. That's Metis.

Ngumiti naman si Master. "Herse, you're one of the most loyal guards of mine. Please understand for a while."

Tumango ako at nag-bow. "Yes, I understand, Master."

Tumango ito at bumaling kay Coach. "May I know your reason?"

"Yes, Master. Gusto ko lang pong i-request na sana kahit ngayon lang po ay makapaglaro ang Lycania Camp against Silver Hawks of NHIA without cheating", nakatungong sambit nito kaya nagsalubong agad ang aking kilay at napatingin kay Coach.

"What do you mean, Elara?", Master Mery asked her confusely.

Kahit ako naguguluhan.

"Uh..." She cleared her throat and continued telling her concerns about the soccer game. "Alam ko pong hindi pa natatalo ang Lycania Camp--"

"And is this because of a boy?" tanong ni Master Mery dahilan para tumunghay si Coach mula sa pagkakatungo nito.

Because of a boy? Bakit naman tungkol do'n?

"And I know the reason why... You may leave", dagdag ni Master Mery bago unti-unting tumayo si Coach mula sa kinauupuan.

Astig talaga ni Master! Hindi mo pa nasasabi ang mga dapat mong sabihin, alam na agad niya. Mind reader nga naman, pero hindi namin mabasa ang nasa isip niya. Siya kasi ang nagbigay ng abilidad at siya rin ang may karapatang bawiin iyon sa amin--

"You thinking something, Herse?" tanong ni Master bago ako makalabas ng pinto kaya pinaglapat ko ang aking labi at humarap kay Master na nakareading glasses na may tali pa ata iyon tapos nakataas ang kilay na nakatingin sa akin.

"Hindi po, Master. Larga na po kami", wika ko at nagbow muna ng kaunti at lumabas na bago sarhan ang pinto.

Nasa gitna pa ata kami ng pagbaba ng tower ay napahagalpak na ako ng tawa.
