Chapter 18 : Unknown

┗━━━✦❘༻༺❘✦━━━┛

Sounds of rustling noises of dried leaves under a tree, howling strong breathes of a wind, and from lighter to getting heavy drops of rain. Thundering and graying clouds that seems angry. All windows were closed, just all silent and quiet cold room. Minerva was staring at window, enjoying the view of lightning, looks like there's no class for today.

Yesterday, she received two code orders, and ang pinoproblema nya is ang code order nya with Amber. She already got a clue that Amber is the second top student ng SS so that might be the reason why they got paired. Standing up from her sofa facing the window, she noticed someone's gaze, hindi ito masyadong malapit, ngunit di rin ito malayo. At ang mga titig na ito ay walang planong masama sa kanya, na syang nakakapagtaka.

'are they here for alliance? No, observe? That's not it, they... They're smiling? Bloodlust??!!!'

Minerva's thoughts then she approach the window to see someone outside.

There's a girl, outside in a scarlet red umbrella. She had a long hair, and bangs that could cover her eyes, makikita ang nakangiti nitong bibig na tila nagsasabing

'nakita na rin kita'

Pero sa mata ni Minerva, it's not a threat. It's an invitation. Hinawakan nya ang bintana at binuksan ito, malakas na hangin at maliliit na tubig na dala ng hangin ang sumalubong sa mukha nya. The girl is still outside starting to move and showing the back of her umbrella. Minerva then put her left foot on the opened window, planning to jump, she needs to know that girl.

"NERV!!! DON'T DO THIS!!!!" sabi ng nag papanik na si Ter.

Agad namang hinila ni Ven si Minerva papalayo sa bintana at sinira ito ni Mer.

"Wtf???, Let me go!!!!" Minerva struggles.

Dahil din di binitawan ni Ven si Nerv, walang magawa si Nerv kundi iumpog ang likod ng ulo sya sa baba ni Ven. Saka sya binitawan ni Ven. At dalidali nyang tinulak si Mer na nasa may bintana at tumingin sa labas.

"Shit!!, Where'd she go?" Minerva

"Sino?", Ter na naglagay ng tray na may bowl of cookies at four mugs of steaming chocolate and milk drink.

"The, the girl!! Outside, She's freakingly showing her boiling bloodlust! Observing me!!", Sabi ni Minerva habang inaalala ang nakangiti nitong mukha.

"She's not holding a red umbrella right?" Mer who help Ven sit on a sofa.

"May alam ka tungkol sa kanya? And yes, she's holding a red umbrella" Nerv.

"I- ahhh!! Sabi ko na nga ba ehh!! Dapat di natin yun pinanood kagabi!! Minumulto na tayo!!!" Mer

"Wait, you're saying na yung the girl in the red umbrella, nag trasport dito sa world natin???? Si Kuya Ven may kasalanan!!!" Ter

Minerva who's dumbfounded questioning why does she have a brother like this.

" Baka makikita mo siya sa susunod, alam mo namang pag may nag observe sayo, you'll meet them soon right?", Ven

"Anyways, let's enjoy this cold day. Here ", Ter who just handed a mug of steaming chocolate in a mug.

"Anyways, are you alright?", Mer

"About what?",Nerv

"Your code orders?"

Minerva just sips her drink instead of answering.

Another silent has covered the room. Mer was the very first to talk again. "I saw Dark yesterday, coming out from one the gang buildings. He had blood on his hands."

The three looks at him with crossed eyebrows.

"I- i was there to- to know" sabi nya habang sinusubukang ikalma ang sarili na halatang hindi nya makalma dahil hindi mapakali ang kamay nya.

"To. What. exactly?", Ven

"I- I" he stutter and tears started to flow out of his eyes.

"...."

"...."

"???"

"Isa broke up with me and I followed her and saw her kissing with another man", Mer (ಥ_ಥ)

[Isa- Mer's gf]

"See? I told you she's just wants a fame", Nerv

"Are you alright?" TER

"She's not even that pretty, why waste your tears for her?", VEN

" Di yan ang iniiyakan ko "

" Then what?"

" I found out na ginamit nya lang ako para maka fame, and not only that, kinuha nya rin yung pina customize yung big book for ancient drawings ko, and freakin guess what!!! She burn it!!! So everytime i remember her, i remember my ancient theme sketch book"

Nung marinig ni Minerva yun, gusto nyang sampalin yung hampas lupang babae. There's no room for her even in hell, she thought. Mercury's been an artist since young. He do many arts, even spending money to build a bigger room for his drawings kaya alam nila v mas mahalaga pa ang mga arts nya kaysa sa ibang bagay, baka nga mas mahalaga pa ito kesa kanila.

Jupiter then hugged Mer, " How can she be so cruel "

" Should I beat her up? " Minerva sighed.

" She doesn't deserved your beautiful punches " sabi ni Mer while wiping his tears.

" Sa may second drawer of my table ", sabi ni Minerva habang ginamit ang baba nya pang turo at himigop ng mainit ma inumin.

Nagtataka naman binuksan ito ni Jupiter, na syang malapit sa mesa. At kinuha nya ang librung nakabalut sa pulang tela. Agad itong nakilala ni Mer, ito ang lalagyan ng sketch book nya.

Ang sumunod na nangyari ay halos sipon at luha ang bumalot sa mukha ni Mer habang yakap yakap si Minerva, habang cna Ven at Ter naman ay inilalayo si Mer kay Minerva dahil parang ayaw ni Minerva na dumikit sa kanya ang mga likidong ito.

Kinabukasan, nauna na namang pumasok si Minerva sa GU. Nakalugay ang kanyang buhok at sinuot ang bago nyang salamin. Nasa isip pa rin nya ang babae na nakita nya kahapon. Habang nasa may hallway sya, may humila sa kanya at iniwasan nya ito at tiningnan ang kamay na humawak sa uniporme nya. Kamay ito na di nya kilala.

Dahil nga maaga, wala pa masyadong mga estudyante sa building. Hinila sya nito sa nagbukas na pintong dinaanan nya at isinandal sa pader ng classroom dahil sa malakas na pwersa, medyu nasaktan ang likod ni Minerva.

" Hey-", sasabihin nya sana habang itinutulak ang sarili papalayo sa pader sa likod nya pero, mas itinulak pa ito, at mas lalo syang nagalit, nang handa na syang pagalitan kung sino man ang taong ito, may malambot na dumampi sa kanyang labi.

[ Minerva's POV ]

"???"

I tried pushing the person in front of me, whoever this may, I don't know what I'm gonna about them. There's something soft in my lips, before I realized what it is, something happen, it's something wet.

Someone's forcing their kiss into me, sinubukan ko man itulak, ang braso nang taong tuh ay nakatukod sa ibaba ng leeg ko at ang isa nyang kamay ay naka hawak sa dalawa kong kamay. Maybe because it's still kind of early so the room is kind of dark, I can't who this person is.

I even feel their tongue trying to enter my mouth, and I keep on insisting. Then the arm that holding my shoulder hold my chin to open my mouth. Maybe because of a close contact, I can't breathe properly, no more like I can't breathe anymore. The person then cut the kiss for a while which did also make me breathe as well.

"Hah... Ha...."

I can feel their breath, inhaling and exhaling and continue to kiss me like someone they truly love. Which is so confusing, I am strong and I'm confident about why can't I push their person away? Like I really do need this embrace? No maybe affection?

When I can finally feel the air, I glared my eyes para makilala kung sino mn tuh. But, all I can see is an empty classroom at creaking opened door. Agad akong lumabas at tumingin sa hallway, both ways, medyo may mga student but nasa malayo sila.

Whoever did that is fast, at halos di ko naramdaman ang presence niya nung bigla nya kong hinila, though nailagan ko ang kamay nya, mabilis nya namang nahawakan ang uniporme ko.

Dahil nga sa nangyari kaya bad mood akong pumasok sa room namin na di masyadong malayo sa room na pinasokan ko at nang kung sinoman yun.

Lima pa ang student na nasa loob, a pair of gossiping girls, dalawang guy na naghaharutan sa may board at natutulog na tao. I know this person, it's Dark. Dahil walang naka tingin samin, sinipa ko ang kinauupuan nya, na nakapag pa tumba ng upuan pero dahil nga si Dark tuh, naka tayo sya bago matumba ang upuan.

He then glares at me and change expression, " Oh, Erva. G'morning" sabi nya then natulog ulit.

I could only that he does an all nighter, dahil sa mukha nya. Though, kagabi nag online meeting ang mga DEITY para sa mga code order, hindi ako umattend, but Ishikawa or Medusa, send me a summary of the meeting. He's the best partner.

[ Medusa is one of the DEITYS ]

I sit on my chair and open a book that just arrived last night, from online. But, imbes na ang nasa libro ang nasa isip ko, the kiss in that room ang umiikot sa isip ko which is so annoying.

Though, hilig akong mang-asar sa mga DEITYS about kissing and dirty stuffs, I still haven't gotten my first kiss na matured nako. Even tries to kiss the girls in a seductive position but they're gonna push me which is a fun reaction kaya ginagawa ko, that is if I'm acting as "Des". But now, I won't expect yung pang yayaring yun ang iniisip ko. Before ko mamalayan, I am holding a pen and sketching something, it's a hand. Ang kamay na nakita ko before mahawakan ang uniporme ko. Wala mn lang itong accessories, pero makikita ang mga ugat sa kamay nito. Wait, why am I doing this? Am I simping to this unknown owner of this hands??? Pull yourself together Minerva!!! Fuck, but now I can't stop thinking about that person, no about that guy. Tsk, what's wrong with me.
