Chapter 4: As I Venture

  Chapter 4: As I Venture 

*Eury's POV* 

Loving him is like drinking bottles of sweet addicting poison which repeatedly intoxicate my heart until it halts to beat... 

 After that time I compelled my feelings to Curfiel he always try to get rid of me. Sinusubukan ko pa ring lumapit sakanya kahit nagmumukha na akong tanga, yung tipong pinipilit ko yung sarili ko sa taong di naman ako gusto , pero wala eh, walang utak 'tong puso ko.

 Hanggang tingin na lang ako sakanya mula sa malayo. I remembered the first time I stepped on the pandemonium land of Mafia Academy. He taught me how to use sword, he was holding my hand while I'm gripping tight the sword. Now , I know how to use it proficiently. He taught me how to defend myself from the wicked persons who aim to hurt me.

 Sinanay niya ako na dapat walang mananakit saken. Sinanay nya akong labanan ang mga taong may masaman balak saken. But the most beautiful thing he did to my near-to-be-wasted life-- he thawed the massive iceberg that made my heart numb and dumb. He defrosted the thick tundra that covered my heart for how many years. 

You know what it really hurts me? Yung taong nagturo saken kung pano ang lumaban para di masaktan ay yung tao din na sasaktan ako ngayon ng lubusan. It is heart devastating to be hurt emotionally mas mabuti pa yung masaktan ng pisikal kaunting alcohol lang at band aid tapos pero kapag emosyon it takes a long time before it mends. Tinuruan niya akong wag masaktan pero siya rin naman pala yung gagawa noon saken. Mas masakit pa kapag di mo inaasahan. 

 Nakakainis!!!! Pinanganak na yata akong kakambal ang katangahan at kamalasan.

"Hey what are you doing? Why are you staring intently at Curfiel?" Biglang tanong ni Nagel na nakangisi habang naglalakad patungo saken. He had blood stained clothes. Siguro nakipagsuntukan na naman ang taong ito. He is one of the good friends of Curfiel and a member of Cruxifix Six ang grupong kinatatakutan sa Mafia Academy.

 "I'm not staring at Curfiel!!!" I answered loudly as I walked toward the slightly ruined bench and sat their.

 "Oh bat galit ka? Bawal na bang magtanong?" He questioned while pacing near the place where I am sitting melancholiously

 We were under the shade of a big tree, its leaves were sun dried, withered and unhealthy just like my sick heart. 

 "May gusto ka ba sakanya? Sa kaibigan ko?" Seryosong tanong ni Nagel noong makaupo na siya sa tabi ko. Nag-aalangan akong sumagot. I doubt to say any word baka kasi pagtawanan niya ako at biro-biruin sa tuwing magkasama kami. Maloko pa naman 'tong si Nagel. 

 "Pag ako kasama mo I try to make sure that I always put the second letter of my name at the start. I am always trying to be an ANGEL for you Eury." 

Anong pinagsasabi ng taong ito? Ilipat naten yung second letter ng name niya NAGEL --- ANGEL. Angel daw? But he is so mean to m. He cracks jokes that sometimes offend my feelings secretly. But I realized na sa tuwing malungkot ako, nasa tuwing pinagmamalupitan ako ng mundo nandiyan siya ginagawa lahat mapasaya lang ako kahit para na siyang clown.

 Hindi ko nga lubos maisip na sa likod ng napakaamo niyang mukha nagtatago ang isang matapang at palaban na Nagel. Kaya siguro ginawang Nagel ang pangalan niya kasi he looked like an angel but some inner force contradicts to it. 

 "Tigil-tigilan mo ko Nagel!! Kelan ka pa naging Angel?" I asked sacastically raising my left eyebrow while staring at him. 

 "Simula nong iwasan ka ni Curfiel ako na yung nakabantay sayo di ba? Ako na yung umalalay say, yung sumasama sayo sa tuwing nag iisa ka sa sulok at nalulungkot. I am always trying to cheer you up but you never noticed it kasi busy ka para sakanya."

Bigla kong naalala yung mga oras na kailangan ko ng kausap at masasandalan-- si Nagel he always guides and always there beside me. May mga bagay na hindi naten namamalayan kasi nga pinaglalaanan tayo ng ating oras, ng ating puso. But what does he want to insinuate? Bakit niya sinasabi ang mga bagay na ito?

"Akala mo hindi ko mapapansin na may gusto ka kay Curfiel. Even if you dont speak a word, your action obviously uttered the feelings you felt for him. " natulala ako at napatigil ng sandali sa paghinga. Alam niya pala na may gusto ako kay Curfiel. 

" Why are you saying all of these to me?" I inquired. Many questions arose inside my curious mind.

 "Its because I love you!!" He whispered very soft and calm tine of voice. I felt the great sincerity of words that came out of his nervous mouth. Then he looked away as I stared at him even more intent. I thought he was ashamed to what he told me. I just let some seconds passed by then I mustered the courage to say. 

"Maybe we can be together tayo na lang na dalawa. I will also love you." Yun ang mga nasabi ko dahil naisip ko na kapag nag entertain ako ng ibang tao hindi ko na mamimiss si Curfiel at baka kinalaunan ay makalimutan ko na rin siya. 

"Are you sure? You mean tayo ng dalawa?" He replied na parang may pag-aalangan sa boses niya. 

So, I just nodded. Simula noon nag iba na yung daily routine ko. Unlike before that my eyes were always looking for Curfiel, medyo nabawasan na rin yung pagmamahal ko sakanya-- I want it to be totally erased...
