Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 71 - THE BRION BROTHERS
Weeks passed and every grade ten student was preparing for the upcoming event, exclusively for their year level only."Why did they just let us get ready for Prom Night?" Trestan's classmate complained."Yeah right. Examination before the party. Tss."He doesn't want to go but it is required and graded. He needed to attend the party for the sake of his grades. They are graduating students after all and he shouldn’t let his grades flop just because of that event.It's vacant time and the conversations inside the classroom are all about the Prom Night. His classmates’ complaints were extremely annoying. Nothing will change even if they protest all day. To avoid those noises, he chose to go to the library to search for the book he needed for his studies.There were few students in the library when he arrived. Most of the students are just playing with their gadgets and not reading books. They just hang out in the library because it is air-conditioned.'Tss.' He hissed in his mind before
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 72 - THE NEXT SUSPECT
Examination day…The whole highschool building is in peace and silence. They were taking their last day semi-final exam for that year and when the bell rang, the students suddenly made noise. Some are glad to finish the last exam on time, others do not care if their answers are correct, as long as the exams are finally over, the others complain because they did not finish the exam and most of them just sighed in relief.Cally has no classes so Trestan just left her sister to their neighbor, Mrs. Santos. He was unlocking the bike when he noticed a famous and rich man, Mr. Reevecus Leviste waiting outside the school gate with flowers in his hand.Trestan creased his forehead and easily got annoyed. The young businessman gained attention from the students who were going outside the school, especially with the girls. Some of them took pictures with Leviste who is somehow approachable. Well, he has the looks, wealth, and brain so who doesn't like and want him? Only Blair Ferran."Who are
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 73 - THE LADY IN RED
***The battle between the people against the government and policemen, who revolted in San Andres had finished. It was a miracle that Alfarez and Beltran survived. They thought it was their end but it's not. Some of their colleagues got severely injured and most of them died in the middle of the war.There are two military trucks but unfortunately, one of them was damaged and can no longer be used.The most severed comrades were the first who'll get home and will be taken to the hospital. Beltran is one of them but Alfarez seemed fine so he stayed on the battlefield with some of his colleagues with minor injuries like him."See you at San Lorenzo." He tapped Beltran’s shoulder and bid his goodbye."Y-Yeah. You'll treat me to an unlimited drink in the bar." Beltran slightly chuckled while enduring his wounds."You dumb*ss! You know that I don't drink. Tss." Beltran just laughed at him. As the military truck went far away from their camp, it unexpectedly exploded. "Beltran!"***He's
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 74 - THE PROM NIGHT
Blair sat in front of her parents’ gravestones and stared at them for a moment.. "Hey! Mom, dad. I'm here again and with Trestan." Trestan looked at her while standing. "I miss you both."Trestan decided to sit beside her and silently, they appreciated the serenity of the surroundings. The wind gently blowing and whispering to them."You know what? Before they died, my mom wanted to know who is the lucky guy I like." She smiled but didn't reach her eyes. "I always regret that I did not tell them, especially since mommy wants to be the first to know about him."Trestan was stunned and looked away. Trestan’s Adam's apple moved up and down as he felt uneasiness. He wanted to ask her about it but who is he to do that?'Maybe, it is Darren, her classmate, or that businessman Leviste. Tss. Who cares? I don't care.' He said in his mind but deep inside, he felt annoyed."Do you want to know who it is?" Blair asked, looking at him and seeking his response."I’m not interested.""Ah… Okay." S
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 75 - THE HIDDEN LETTER
"Hi."She gently put her hands on his shoulder, and Trestan slowly held her waist to start swaying."You look... Different." Blair said."Different? It’s still me, the one you always call mute." Trestan uttered while looking at her eyes. He talked to her as if they were just the only one in that place."I mean... Uhm... Y-Your attire, your hair, looks like it is not you.” She stuttered a bit when Trestan talked to her so casually. “Too handsome and attractive." Blair described him and bit her lower lips to stop herself from smiling.He chuckled, "You compliment me too much but thank you though. You too.""Me what?""You look different.""Different?" She asked the same question."You always look boyish every time I see you biking but now..." He couldn’t stop himself from smiling that automatically made Blair blush. "You dressed like a real young lady." He laughed slightly."You comfortably talk to me.""Someone advised me to talk more often but if you don't want me to---""No. No. I m
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 76 - THE SIBLINGS
Reevecus Asyl Ferran.Ferran’s eyes widened and shock was visible in his eyes as he read the words.'Simeon probably knew about this. Levistes is a family friend of Ferrans.' He was analyzing it inside his mind."Did Simon know about this too?" He asked himself."Uncle, I'm ho---what are you doing? And what was that?" Blair suddenly entered his room so he immediately put the letters and photos inside the black box and closed it before Blair could see what he saw."Nothing!” Her sudden appearance almost gave him a mini heart attack. “Just... Uhm... Important stuff at work.""Ah.” She looked at the box her uncle was holding before looking back at Ferran. “By the way, Trestan and I will study at their house. Is it fine to go there?""Yeah." Ferran immediately agreed. "Sure. No problem. Just be careful.""Nice. Thanks!"Ferran sighed when Blair got outside his room. She seems unaware. He has a strong hunch that Blair does not have any idea that she has a brother, especially on the day Ree
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 77 - THE BEST GIFT
Ferran just arrived at his house and he was confused because there is no light in the whole house. That means one thing. "Blair? Blair? Blair!" He immediately went inside and turned on the lights. Everything is in order. Nothing suspicious inside. He proceeded to the rooms and checked if Blair was there. "Blair? Blair! Where are you?" He felt nervous when he could not see Blair at home. She did not leave any message when he checked on his phone, so he tried to call her. It rings but not picking it up."She's not answering. Sh*t." He locked the door and left his house to find her. She tried calling her again until someone answered it."Hey, Blair! Where---""Uncle, it's me. Asyl." Ferran got silent when he heard the voice from the other line. "She's with me."‘Asyl? Reevecus Asyl Leviste?’ His forehead creased. ‘Why is she with him at this hour?’"Why is she with you?""You forgot?” He sounds disappointed. “It's my day.""Oh? It's---oh yeah, I forgot. Sorry. Happy birthday." He acts
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 78 - THE RANT
"Don’t doubt him. He loves your mom... so much." He said and also submerged his feet in the water beside Blair."How can you tell?""Because I asked the same question to dad and he answered that he loved my mom before but when he met aunt Brenda, your mom, his love faded away for my mother, especially since my mom left him for another man," Reevecus explained and Blair felt relieved. She thought that her dad made her mom a replacement for Reevecus's mother, Veronica.Reevecus looked at his wristwatch and it's a minute before midnight."Would you please call me 'Kuya' one more time? I love hearing that word coming from your mouth.""Tss. Kuya, you're so ugly." She said and chuckled."Wow... You really know how to annoy me, eh?" He sarcastically said, then he splashed some water from the pool on his sister’s face."Kuya!" Blair glared at him and she also did it to his brother until they pushed each other in the pool. The two ended up swimming in the middle of the night.It's one o'cloc

Hope of the Dying World EPILOGUE
March 16, 2022Wednesday 7 AMMonths had swiftly passed…“Where are you going, dad?”“I’ll just visit someone… it’s been a while.” He said before leaving their house. The sun rose already and the streets of San Lorenzo came back into life.With an open window, Timotheus felt the morning breeze. He was greeted by the neighborhood. On his way to his destination, he passed by a flower shop. “Good morning, officer! You’re at the right time. Our flowers were freshly delivered.”A white bouquet of gerbera flowers caught his attention. He immediately put it beside the passenger seat. He stared at the flowers for a second before starting the engine.It was a peaceful drive not until he noticed a commotion in the middle of the road.“Again?” He parked his car at the side of the road.“You f*cking j*rk! You’re the one who bumped into my car! Look!”“What? I’m just passing by and you’re—”“Excuse me? What is this all about?” Timotheus asked while checking the damages.“Who are you?” One of them
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 110 - THE HOPE
“...Kuya.” Julsen slowly closed his eyes before his ghost left him.“J-Julsen… Hey, man. Wake up. Julsen!”The night became silent after that bloody encounter. A lot of bodies were lying on the ground… lifeless.Timotheus carefully let him go and looked at the blood in his hand. She clenched his fist and rushed to Danryll to give him a hard blow. Danryll didn’t bother to dodge his attack and just let him.“How could you?!”“Sir, stop it!” Xol went in between to stop Timotheus while Ferran, on the other hand, just watched them because the unusual feeling of pain was forming inside him again.“I will never regret it!”“How will you prove that he really killed the doctor? Huh? You don’t have—”“Of course… I have.” Danryll threw him his phone that was immediately caught by Timotheus. He watched the entire video and Julsen really killed Dr. De Vega inside the laboratory. He unconsciously dropped the phone astounded.“Y-You think you all s-succeed? Even if you revealed them to the whole wor
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 109 - THE HALF-BROTHER
The Chief just arrived at the place where the real Boss was living. Instead of welcoming him, everyone inside pointed their guns at him. “What the hell is happening?!” His eyes widened when he saw the real Boss furiously looking at him, as if he wanted to kill him from that very moment. “You son of a b*tch! How dare you destroy the laboratory without my consent?!” The real Boss held the collar of Chief’s clothes and tightened his grip. “Everything will not go according to plan if I don't do it, Boss.” Fear was visible to his eyes. The real Boss is the only one he afraids of. No one but him. “You killed Maria! And my granddaughter… my precious granddaughter!” He was shaking with anger and slowly choking the Chief. “I thought Cally’s your only g-granddaughter? Ugh! I just did it to reach our goal. To produce a cure—” He was cut off when he felt the need for air. “You thought… Hah! I don’t care about that damn goal! As long as my family’s not involved, you’re free to do anything but
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 108 - THE CODE
“As I’ve thought… Got it.”Czaquira ready her pen and paper while Blair was dictating the code they needed to decipher. The letter’s too tiny for them and Blair has 20/20 vision. She could easily read the characters unlike the others inside that special room.“R-O-M-12:12—12|13|14|15 II-C-O-R-4:10—31|32|33|34|35 J-O-H-N-3:16—17|18|19|20|214_2_3_5_5… That’s all.” Blair creased her forehead, not recognizing what the code was telling.Czaquira tried to type it all but it’s too long for a passcode. “Fourteen characters… We only need fourteen characters.” Czaquira uttered.“No… it’s nineteen, I guess?” Xol confusedly said.Minutes after minutes… an hour and ten minutes left. In the middle of the brainstorming on how to decipher the code, Timotheus' phone rang.“Aquiro,” Timotheus said, hoping for good news. “Really? Oh God… thank goodness.”“How’s the search, sir?” Xol asked, hoping for good news.“They found him and…” He looked at Blair who was about to cry. “He’s alive.”Blair’s kn
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 107 - THE PENDANT
“Trestan… He’s alive!” Aquiro wiped his tears and went beside Trestan’s bed.“It’s a miracle that he’s still alive after that fall.” The street sweeper spoke before he sipped his hot coffee.“You’re the one who helped him?” Aquiro asked.The man just nodded and put the empty cup on the table near him.“He needs a long rest. I should leave. Take care of him.”“May I know your name, mister?” Aquiro stopped him for a moment.“No need.” He tapped his shoulder before leaving.“Sh*t… so it’s true. He’s alive. Thank goodness.” Ziph sighed in relief when he saw Trestan lying on the bed unconscious.“Damn you, cous’. You scared us. We thought…”“Stop being a crybaby, Aquiro. Haha.” Beor teased him.“F*ck you.”They just laughed at Aquiro’s hilarious face. The laughter stopped when they heard Trestan speak.“Cally…” He mumbled. “Hey, Trestan! Do you hear me? Trestan.” Aquiro slightly shook him. “Cally… Cally!” He suddenly woke up from that deep sleep. He groaned when he felt pain all over his
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 106 - THE BODY SUIT
Heavy rain fell while Ferran was on his way to save Blair. He struggled a bit because he couldn’t clearly see the road. Ferran looked at his wristwatch before stepping on the gas to speed up.“Ugh!” He almost got into an accident if he hadn’t stepped on the break immediately. His chest tightened and his breathing became heavy. ‘Alfarez! Alfarez!’ Real Ferran’s voice echoed inside his head.His heart pounded harder than the first one, as if his consciousness would leave him. Regardless of the frigidness of the atmosphere due to the rain, his body was heating up and beads of sweat were forming on his forehead and neck. “H-Hah… Hah…” Ferran’s head dropped on the steering wheel and his sight became blurry.Darkness filled the surrounding and he woke up in a void.***“It’s been a while… Timotheus Alfarez.” The voice echoed everywhere.‘That voice… That voice!’ He opened his eyes but he saw nothing but darkness. ‘I’m here again… Does it mean…’ He held his head when he felt a sudden pain.
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 105 - THE SEARCH
“Danryll! We need to go. Something’s going on with the kids.” Zyrille uttered after she got a call from Dylan. “Danryll!”“What?” Danryll looked at her before he ended the call.“The kids… we need to go to them.”“Why?” He stood up and they were walking and exiting the wrecked laboratory after they put Dr. De Vega’s body in a safe space. Even if they wanted to, it is not the right time to mourn. There is a special mission they needed to accomplish.“Dylan called and… and he was crying. I don’t really understand what he was saying but all I understood was they were hiding from bad people.”“I thought they were safe where they were.”“I thought so too but it is not the case now.” Zyrille checked on Julianna who was sleeping peacefully and soundly inside the van. “We need to hurry or else, we might lose those innocent ones too.”Danryll sighed heavily before starting the engine. The place is not that far from Mrs. Santos’ house and the travel was quick because it’s night time and there i
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 104 - THE CAR CRASH
“Trestan!”The sound of the waves coming from the San Lorenzo sea and Trestan’s whimper were heard in the middle of the cold night. He was shot on his shoulder and it’s bleeding too much.“Trestan…” Blair was weeping while trying to assist Trestan. Her hands were full of his blood but she didn't mind.“Shh… Don’t cry. It’s… nothing.” He tried to lift his hand to wipe her tears but he couldn’t. The wound was too painful to bear.“Give me that young man!” The Chief was forcefully pulling the briefcase which contained the cure.“No!” Trestan tightly hugged the briefcase while Blair did her best to defend him. She kicked the Chief’s ass and gave him punches but still, it’s not enough. Blair even received a hard blow from the man that made her weak.“A-Ah!” Trestan cried out of pain when the CHief choked him to death.“T-Trestan…” Blair mumbled while watching her lover crying because of pain but she couldn’t do anything but to watch him suffer. She can’t move an inch.The Chief pushed him
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 103 - THE SORROW
“Oh my gosh!!” Blair covered her ears as they heard the explosion coming from the surface. It slightly shook the place because of its great impact. “Dr. De Vega!”Trestan put his hand on her mouth and strongly shook his head to stop her from running back to the laboratory. He then pulled her again because at any time, the enemies might track them as soon as they learned about the tunnel underneath.Rain was heavily pouring when they reached the exit. They unhesitatingly entered the dark and vast forest even though they already knew what danger was waiting for them.The ground became muddy and slippery that made it difficult for them to run faster. Trestan tightly held Blair’s hand while running for their lives because unfortunately, they encountered fake hunters on their way out. One of Blair’s feet slipped and she almost fell into the pit where the organization disposed of the dead organisms from their failed experiment.“Blair! Sh*t… Careful! Let’s go.” Trestan was tired but he just
