What will happen if they are tasked to save someone from the past for the sake of the future? -Mikadzuki
View MoreApollo'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
Ilang araw pa naming ginawa ang pamimigay ng mga relief goods bago kami tumigil.Today is the day where the people will vote for the one they want. 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
Nang matapos ang araw namin sa bar na iyon ay hindi na kami nag stay pa ni Apollo.We're now in the time where the election is happening. I glance at the monitor in front kung saan nakalagay ang larawan at pangalan ng mga kalaban namin.My eyes widened and pointed at the screen. Hinawakan naman ni Apollo ang hintuturo ko at binaba. He's just looking in front but not saying anything. Nasa tapat naming dalawa si Zenia at Xander. May mga kasama pa kaming iba ngunit hindi ko na kilala."Kalaban natin si Angelica?" I whispered to Apollo.He nodded, "Obviously." Napairap naman ako sa sagot nya at tumingin kay Xander. Halatang in love sya dahil hindi sya nakikinig sa sinasabi ng lalaki sa harap, nakatitig lang sya sa larawan ni Angelica sa screen habang parang tangang nakangiti.
"We still have 3 months to review for the bar." Stress na sabi ni Zenia. Nasa pad nya kami ngayon at sobrang kalat dito dahil ang daming nagkalat ng chocolate at bulaklak."Ikaw talaga kahit kelan, Ava. Ang tamad mo." Xander said but I just rolled my eyes at him."Pake mo ba?" Sabi ko at binato sya ng isang piraso ng chocolate. Inilagan nya naman yon at nagirapan kami.We just stopped when Apollo sat in between us. Hindi pa din nagbabago si Xander, isip bata pa din. Mukha lang nya ang nagbago. I rolled my eyes again and acted like I am reading.Si Apollo naman ay nakatingin lang sa akin na natatawa dahil hindi ko din naman naiintindihan ang binabasa ko. I frustratedly groaned and stood up. Hinatak ko nalang si Apollo palabas dahil nabo boring ako."Hindi ba tayong pwedeng mag time tr
I rolled my eyes for the nth time while looking at Apollo who's now pouting for hours now!"What's your problem?" Inis na tanong ko pero hindi nya sinagot at mas lalong pinahaba ang nguso.I groaned out of frustration and leave him there. Pumasok ako sa veranda at sinara ang pinto."Napaka isip bata." I whispered while looking at the city lights below me. Gabi na at hindi pa kami kumakain dahil napaka arte ni Apollo.Lumanghap ako ng hangin at unti unting nakakalma. Nang malamig na ang ulo ko ay lumapit na ako sa kanya na nanunuod na naman ng tv."I'm sorry." I whispered while standing in front of him. Tumingin naman sya sa akin at umirap. Napasinghap ako dahil naiinis na naman ako."I'm sorry." Mas malakas ko namang sabi na inirapan na naman nya. How dare he?!I glared at him and get the t
Tanginang buhay 'to.I cursed inside my head and punch the guy in front of me. Sinipa ko naman ang nasa likod ko at umikot para masipa ang nasa harap ko naman. Tumalon ako na kasing taas ng mukha netong tangang to at sinipa sya. I sighed before punching his face that made him unconscious."Kaya pa?" I turned to the man who went near me and rolled my eyes."This is so nakakapagod!" Reklamo ko na ikinangiwi nya."Ang arte mo. Palagi naman to nangyayari, but you're still doing it kahit nakakapagod." Sabi nya na nginisian ko."Because I don't have any choice, duh?"Lumapit sya sa akin at nilagay ang kamay sa ulo ko, he then smiled softly that made me froze."Sit down there and watch me finish them." Mayabang na sabi nya at tinuro ang patong patong na kahon sa hindi kalayuan. Hindi ko pa din maalis sa isip ko ang ginawa nya kaya wala sa sarili akong naglakad papunta sa tinuro nya at umupo doon.I
