Novels by N.Bernardo

Apollo's POVI waited for 10 years for her to be reincarnated again. I fucking waited without assurance.Galit ako sa tadhana dahil bakit palagi syang kinukuha sa akin? Hindi ba pwedeng dumating ang panahon na sabay kaming mamamatay, at hindi sya nauuna?I'm mad but it's automatically vanishing the moment I saw the new her. Hinding hindi ako magsasawa na mahalin at hintayin sya ng paulit ulit."I'm Avabelle Shivani but you can call me Avani." Sabi nya sa maliliit na boses. Gusto kong pisilin ang pisngi nya dahil sobrang cute nya.Nilahad nya pa sa akin ang maliliit nyang kamay. I bit my lower lip to restrain myself."Hi, Avi.""It's Avani, not Avi." I blinked when she rolled her eyes on me. Gusto kong pitikin ang noo nya dahil sa mangha.

I'm still bothered about what he said yesterday night. But because of tiredness, I fell asleep."Wake up, now. I'm sorry." I heard Apollo said while giving me kisses on the cheeks. Natawa naman ako at bumangon na."Why are you saying sorry, huh?" I said with my morning voice. He's like a puppy because he's now hugging me tightly while his head is on my chest."I know you're tired. I really can't bear it seeing you tired." Inis nyang sabi na nagpatawa na naman sa akin."Palagi mo nga akong pinapagod." I jokingly said but he looked at me with brows furrowed."That's different." Pagtatanggol nya sa sarili kaya natawa ako."That's no different. I'm still tired." Irap ko sa kanya kaya para syang bata na sumiksik na naman sa akin. I laughed and brushed his hair with my fingers."I'm just kidding.

"We already tried it a lot of times, Apollo." Nanghihinang sabi ko. We're now the day of her death, we're just repeating what happened.Nagtataka ako kung bakit buhay pa kami kahit na sumabog ang kotseng kinalalagayan namin but it's the least of my concern now. Like what happened to Hannah-Zenia's also death on arrival.He shooked his head, "We'll save her this time. Don't think of using that damn ability of yours, Avabelle." Seryosong sabi nya. I sighed and just go with his plans.Nasa labas kami ngayon dahil baka daw maiba ang mangyayari. We're now in the house of the senators, working. Nasa gitna namin si Zenia na walang pake sa paligid at nagbabasa o nagsusulat lang.I can't concentrate because of tiredness but I kept myself awake and aware of my surroundings. We need to save her."Atty. Falcon." Napalingon kami sa tumawag sa kanya. It's the same person who called her the las

"W-what-how-." I can't even construct a sentence while looking at Zenia's cold body on the floor. May dugo sa damit nya at ulo, umaagos. Her eyes is wide opened, and there is a hole on his forehead. Sa noo sya binaril... I felt Apollo's warmth when he hugged me. Hindi ako makapaniwala, hindi pwede. "Breath." Apollo whispered but I don't know what to do. My eyes were bloodshot when I turned to him. "H-Hindi to pwede..." I said that made him closed his eyes tightly. Huminga sya ng malalim at tumango tango sa akin. "Everything will be fine. We'll go back from the past and save her again, okay?" Sabi nya na tinanguan ko. Hindi to pwedeng mangyari. Binuksan nya na ang portal at nakayakap sya sa aking pumasok doon.

"So you're saying that anybody can kill her?" Taka kong tanong kay Apollo. Hindi naman sya sumagot at agad na hinawakan ang kamay ko. Sumunod naman ako sa kanya dahil nakita namin si Zenia na lumabas na ng hall. Hindi nya na kasama yung lalaki. Nakatayo lang sya doon at parang naghihintay ng sasakyan. I looked at Apollo and he nodded at me so I called Zenia. "Zenia!" Sigaw ko kaya napalingon naman sya kaagad. Tumatanda na talaga sya. "Oh, it's rare to see you here." She said and smiled at little. Tumango na lamang ako at tinignan si Apollo. "Nagpasundo kasi si Apollo. Gusto mo bang sumabay na sa amin?" I kindly asked her and she nodded immediately. "Gusto ko na ding umuwi." She said so I chuckled. Huminto na si Apollo sa harap namin kaya pumasok na ka

Hindi naman ako umaasa na mananalo ako kasi hindi naman talaga ko sikat o ano man. Pero kasi mission namin to kaya kahit ayaw ko ay wala akong pagpipilian."Kahit hindi na ako manalo basta manalo si Angelica." Narinig kong sabi ni Xander.I saw how Zenia rolled her eyes too. Natawa naman si Apollo."Nakakatanga pala ang pag ibig. Ayoko na tuloy magmahal." Sabi ni Zenia na ikinatawa namin."Masarap mag mahal, subukan mo kasi." I commented but she just shooked her head."Hindi ko makita ang sarili ko na may asawa at anak." Dagdag nya na ikinanguso ko. Lumingon ako kay Apollo."May nabasa ka ba nung nag research tayo na may pamilya si Zenia?" Bulon
