Eros

"The day of your reckoning is near, Eros." Dad said as he sipped his coffee while sitting in front of the swivel chair of his office here inside the mansion.

I took a deep breath as I lean my back on the back rest of the sofa. I even crossed my legs while massaging the bridge of my nose.

"I know that thing. I'm not afraid of him, all I'm worried about is Francine. I don't want her to be in danger because of me. I promised to protect her."

"You've been protecting her all your life. It's not impossible that you can't protect her now," he said full of determination and confidence.

"I'm afraid for her safety. After all, it's all my fault. She wouldn't be in danger if it weren't for me." I reasoned out which made him put his cup of coffee down on the table and stared at me blankly.

    YnnahIt's been a few weeks since we, Eros and I, went back to school. Nothing has changed except the three women who cornered me before, they are avoiding me now. I don’t know why and what happened. Maybe it's because of what Eros did to them so they are now avoiding me.If that so, then I'm so much grateful to that. No one oppresses me anymore.It's already our class dismissal so I immediately arrange my belongings in my bag so that when Eros returns, I will be ready to go home. He was called to the faculty room for the books he donated the other day so I'm alone now."Uh, Ynnah." I looked up at the person who called my name just now and I immediately smiled when I saw Calisse.She slyly smiled at me while she look so hesitant."Hello, do you need anything?"

    YnnahI look forward to this day. The confrontation. But why do I feel like I wasn’t prepared? Instead of courage, fear and apprehension I feel at these times.And seeing Eron in front of me right now is giving me chills to my spine with his cold hazel brown eyes. If you look at him you will see the difference between him and Eros even if they say they are identical twins. They maybe have the same features, but apart from the different colors of their eyes and hair, you can see a mole on the side of Eron's left eye while Eros' is on his nose.If you are new and do not know them you will be really confused as to which of them is Eron or Eros. But when you finally know them then you can see the difference between the two of them."You good?

I don't want to believe.If it's all just a dream, please! I want to wake up! I can no longer do what I know! I can no longer sink all the revelations into my brain!Everything that I just found out is so fucking frustrating!"Say hello to hell, Francine."A loud blow of the pipe to my back brought me back to my senses. With the force of the beating I bled.So this is what they called, hell in Earth."Taste my revenge, Francine.

    My eyes widened because of awe and disbelief."H-how? W-why are you... what was that?"I don't know if what's the exact statement to asked. My brain is not working well because of the unexpected oddity."I was fallen in two ways. The first one is literally and the second one is with a human that I shouldn't fall in love with," he conceded which made me look very surprised."W-what?" I have lots of questions on my head and curiosity filled my whole system but that was the only word that I manage to utter."I have broken the rules," he retorted that slightly parted my mouth.What the hell—

    I sighed a few times as I stood up at a huge door in front of me as my mind debated whether to open it or not. I could hear the music and laughter of those people behind this door, I composed myself and took another deep breath while gripping the doorknob and turned it but I still don't have the confidence to open it, I clenched my fist and dauntlessly touched the doorknob once again. It isn't my first time going here but right at this moment, I felt like it was. I understand that I am not welcome inside because, from the very first place, I know that they didn't want me for him anymore, especially her. She loathed me to the point that she would forcefully push me away from her son, but I am still here making myself stupid and fool while hoping that one day, she would finally accept me as her son's girlfriend. I didn't do something for her to despise me this much and I don't have a

    Ynnah "Ladies and Gentleman, PAL flight number 143 will be landing in Manila in five minutes. Please fasten your seatbelts when the signal flashes on, this is your flight captain. Have a good day and enjoy your trip, thank you." I was startled when I heard the announcement. I immediately sat up and looked around. They were fastening their seatbelts already so, I did mine too. After fastening my seatbelt, I immediately looked out of the plane window. In just a few minutes, the plane will land on the runway of NAIA airport. I put my hand on my chest and felt it. The pain and misery that I felt before and the fear of going back here to the Philippines are already gone. I am ready. I am ready to live peacefully in this place free from the pain and bitterness of the past. And I am so happy about it. It's been two years. Two years since I left thi

    Ynnah I decided to go wander around our subdivision while I didn't know where to go yet. It's been two years since the day I left and a lot had changed in this neighborhood. The alleys, decorations, and all seem to have changed. As I looked around the area, my eyes widened at the image of a man who's now standing not far from me while staring intently at my face seems like he's recognizing me. Xander. I thought as I stared back at him. I almost forgot we're neighbors by the way. Their house is just two corners away from us and it looks like my feet brought me here, opposite the pole with a mini forest not far from their house where we always met before. And it looks like he just came out of the gate. If I was still the same Ynnah two years ago, maybe now, I am still pursuing him everywhere and take good

Even if he would going to make an embarrassing scandal here at the Mall, I will never come back to him! "Y-ynnah?" he asked in surprise. "Yeah, it's me... Xander." He blinked a few times, seems like he couldn't believe that after two years our path will cross once again. He hems for a seconds before he spoke. "How are you? It's been a while. I have no information from you after what happened," he said as he bit his lower lip and avoided my gaze. Feeling guilty, huh? "Well-" I flashed a smile towards him that made him ta

Things that have become a part of yourself – of what makes you who you are today.Xander is the one who made me what I am today.And letting him go is so hard to my part. It was so hard especially because I wasn't able to say the things that I wanted to say. There was no closure. Was in deep repentance. I wanted to say 'goodbye', 'Sorry', and thank you but death was so vile that it didn't give me a chance to do those things.I wanted to say goodbye for the memories of the past that is now clearly understood why those things happened.
