CHAPTER 10- BIRTHDAY

CRISIONTEL

There's a fountain in the center of the town its has a sculture of a naked men holding a harp and the only thing that covers his sword was the flow of the water. I'm wheezing because I can see the head even the water is flowing fast. Zephylie just grabbed my face and put me aside but I badly wanna see it again. Haha

"So that's how it looks like"

I saw his mouth word and he said "Pervert"

"Ano bang problema mo sakin lalake ka? Fountain mo? Fountain mo? pake mo ba kung gusto kong tingnan" I exclaimed and he sighed heavily and pointed something that made me burst into laughter. Ket di siya nakakapagsalita pero patawa parin siya. Oo tinuro niya yung ulo na tinitingnan ko sa statwa nayon at tinikom kolang yung bibig ko.

Zephylie's was pissed and he rolled his eyeballs at me and aggressively grab my collar and keep on moving. Nilingon ko parin ang sculture at ket sa kalayuan kitang kita ko yung ulo ng HEHE. Napaisip din ako kung gaano kaya kalaki sa kanya. Tumingin siya sakin at pinigilan kong tumawa at di ko nakayanan at kinagat ko siya.

"Sorry di ko lang matiis" i'm wheezing and he look so annoyed "Nga Pala zep yung sayo Ganon din ang itsura?"

Nakita ko ang pagkabigla at pamumula ng kanyang mukha at  kulang nalang itapon na niya ako sa kalawakan.

Nagstop kame sa malaking pamilihan at chineck kame ng mga guard. Tinaas kolang ang kamay ko at natameme kami pareho ng guard na babae nang mahawakan niya ang dibdib ko. "Okay pass walang laman" aniya

"Ampucha" I was flabbergasted

Ket nakalayo na kami nakakunot parin ang noo ko sa sinabi niya. Hinanap ko naman ang dibdib ko. May maliit naman na bundok. I poked while walking. Wala daw laman.

I saw many beautiful hybrid and they're so elegant and fancy. Daming mga binili habang ako tamang tingin lang sa mga bilihin. Amper. Napatingin naman ako sa mannequin at may maskara akong nakita at unang tingin palang gusto gusto ko na ito makamtan at napatabi ako ng mag dumaang hybrid at naramdaman ko ang malambot niyang dibdib na dumaan sa braso ko.

I poked again. How can you get those. Maybe balloon will give me a miracle. Pumasok sila sa loob at namili ng mga damit. Halos parang gusto konang dalhin lahat sa labas. Kaso parang kinulang pa ako sa pera. Nakita kong nakatingin si zephylie sa mga mannequin at nakatingin siya sa dibdib.

I looked at mine and went to him "Malaki din ba sakin?-" nahinto ako ipitin niya ang bibig ko "Nagjshajshshs" He gave me a what look and I remove his finger on my lips " Sabi ko nagtatanong lang "

Naglibot libot lang kami at pumili sina jedalion ng kanyang mga gusto at sapatos naman ang gusto ni kuya jaiko. Ano naman kaya kay zephylie? Lumapit ako kay jedalion at nakita ko ang panglalaking damit na kinuha niya. "Bat panglalake--"

"Shussh. It's zephylies birthday today. You wanna gave him something? Isupresa natin siya mamaya sa apartment. Si kuya jaiko ang bahala sa kanya while the two of us. Stayed and prepare for his birthday cakes and gift" Napalingon naman ako sa kanya at nakita ko siyang nakatingin parin dun.

Pumasok na naman kame ng ibang shop and at ang daming maganda kaso hanggang tingin lang ako.

"Pick something you like kid" sabi ni ate at umiling ako. I want that mask. I can't hunt without a mask Lalo na ngayon di ko mahanap Ang flute ko. I'll be in trouble. Nang lumabas kami ng mall may dala dala kaming float at mga bags na kala mo mayaman yun pala pinabitbit lang. Tumawag sila ng karwahe at nagpaiwan lang ako dahil kukunin ko ang bagay na iyon. Nagkatinginan na naman kame ng guardia at pinapasok niya nalang ako.

I'm just walking and something glimpse on my eyes. I slowly glance on a poster and saw my fox mask. There's many people gossiping about it. But I don't care I miss my mask. Okay lang naman ket malayo sakin ang mask pero yung flute ee kailangan ko iyon para masummond ko ito

"The sinner has been murdered that night"

"Impossible no one had found his body yet"

I slightly chuckles. No one knows the sinners identity. But they suspect its a man wawa naman "That mask is a proof of his disappearance or maybe its hiding because his mask has been lock on the king's collection room and even the flute. He's doom if he wanted to get it back"

The flute is found by the king's army. Syet I need it. Damn "And what if he comes back?" I ask them. Interjecting their conversation

"Probably the king won't let it happen. He kills so many people and hybrids on escavan. They're proven innocent. That sinner bid no mercy to their souls and should be burn at stake!"

Innocent? Arrogant people. I can't still believe people called me a manslaughter. I killed just because It satisfied me? or because I want to? You didn't knew you were blinded by the truth. But its okay i'm use to be called one and that why people called me a sinner.

AS THE sun fell onto the darkening horizon. The two of us was busy cleaning the entire place and putting some decorations. Shantal handed me some of the balloons and put them carefully beside the table. But she keeps popping it off.

I saw a blink of light on the window and saw kuya jaiko's waving and I wave too at binatukan naman ako ni ate "Gagi signal yun na papasok sila di ka makisabay ka"

"Sorry wrong mistake" bat parang nabobo ata ako ngayon. Epekto ata ng kinain kong adobo kanina. Nakabalot ang isa kong gift at magugustuhan niya iyon. We heard the foot step coming and we turn off the light and hid. Big sis Jeda handed me the confetti

As he open the door; reaching for the switch. We shouted and he drag himself to the corner in fear

"Happy birthday!" Sigaw namin at nagpaputok ng confetti sa loob. I put some funny cone hat on him and he looks so cute. His all pale white hahah

"Happy birthday to you.. happy birthday happy birthday.." kuya jaiko enters the room with a chocolate two layered cake.

Zephylie seems like his done on his life. But i'm suŕe his happy sadyang di lang siya pahalata. Inabot na nila ang gift nila sa kanya at nabigla sila ng tumayo ako at kinuha ang gift para sa kanya at ilang minuto naman dumating na ako sabay sigaw na "SURPRISE!!!" Nabuga naman ni kuya ang ininom niyang juice at si ate jeda kumaripas ng takbo at parang kamatis ang mukha.

Natameme lang silang nakatingin sa regalo kong mannequin. Kanina pa niya kaseng tinitingnan e malay ko ba. Tumayo nalang ako at inabot ang bra sa kanya "ayan para di ka maoffend sa gift ko oh ito panty"

Zephylie just suddenly lose his soul for a second. And fell on his seat. Nabigla nalang ako ng mapanic sina kuya at tinulungan siya. Now i know his being dramatic. He appreciated my gift such gentlemen.

Umupo nalang ako at uminom ng juice. I looked at the clock and its 9 oclock sharp.

"Guys i'll be back"

"Were you going?"

"I'm meeting with a friend"

Lumabas ako ng apartment and went to the woods. Because its dark and no one would notice. Binaliktad ko ang damit ko. Its has two colors styles. White and black. I wore my mask and tied up my hair and put scarf matching with style. I put all my knives on my legs and others hidden on my hips. Its hunt time. I walk on barn and i saw a stallion and i tried to soothe its temper for not waking up the farmer. I open the door and rode on a stallion to reach there on time.

I left my horse on a nearby pond and tied it up on the tree. I search the place and there's a carnaval. Hybrid carnaval. Just my luck everyone is wearing a mask. I saw a poster of mine. Wanted. Executed agad. Ano bang ginagawa ko niwawalis ko na ang mga mga basura sa escavan tapos ako pa mali. Sabagay sinner nga diba makasalanan. Why bothers

Kaso i'm nothing without that mask. That mask has the ability to protect me. Inilabas ko ang aking red lipstick. And joined the crowds. Others a re buying in a food cart. And playing games to win a big price teddy bear. Bumili naman ako ng cotton candy. May narinig akong nahuhulog na can at parang kanina pa itong nakakascore.

"Nikaru!" My heart throb as i heard that name. Nikaru that his name. The leader of the phantom. Hinanap ko iyon at napakaraming tao sa fun fair kung may dala akonh bata baka magkawalay kami. Nakakaaliw din ang fireworks.

Napahinto ako sa paglalakad at napalingon ako ng marinig ko ang mga nahuhulog na can. Nakita ko ang isang magkasintahan. At inabot naman sa kanila ang price. "Thank you nikaru"

I wrinkled my lips. Magkapangalan lang sila actually. Kilala ko ang mukha ni Nikaru nagkita pa kami nung araw nayun at nauntog pa ako sa antique clock. Sa tangkad at ket anong angulo kilalang kilala ko siya kaso hindi ko parin sila mahuli huli san kase ang tinataguan ng mga iyon! I stomp my food and turn back until I bump onto someone's chest again. It always happening to me!! Inangat ko ang mukha ko at pinanliitan ko siya ng mata. Sa expression palang nakakamatay.

"Zephylie what are you doing here?!" Nabigla lang ako ng pikutin niya ang pisnge ko. "Masakit gagi bitawan mo nga ako"

He began to shout but i didnt hear anything from him. Imbes na magalit natawa nalang ako at namula siya sa hiya. Nakalimot si dodong na hindi pala siya nakakapagsalita. Hahaha
