A Conflict

Parker's Pov:
All of us became quiet when they arrived. Seeing them hold hands is an eyesore tsk. Marami na yung nangyari sila yung wala. This is causing me a headache.
"I took Phoenix somewhere for some reasons." Logan said as he dragged Phoenix to the chair.
"Yeah, you still have the audacity to go on a date somewhere when the situation is getting haywire." Clinton clicked his tongue and gave the two a tough look. He's right, psh.
"I'm sorry? You don't know the reason, and you have no right to talk to us in this way." Logan faced Clinton, causing him to lose his hold on Phoenix's hand. I heard Sera whistle, indicating that the situation was escalating.
"Whether I know the reason or not, it's still you who always rebels against the group. We've been abducted by some stupid dangerous group, the teacher and the students are probably dead, Parker got shot, and yet here you two are, still finding time for romance." Clinton's rage is intensifying right now, and no one is stopping him. Logan grabbed Clinton's shirt and locked eyes with him, seething with anger.
"That's enough from both of you." At last, someone tried to stop them, and it's her.
"Oh! She finally speaks! Tell me, Phoenix. What information did you two gather while the rest of us were on the brink of death?" Clinton is angry and a bit psychopathic, and I just facepalmed myself while trying to feel the presence of the others.
"If you dare to speak to her like that again. I won't hesitate to murder you." Logan said to him, and the grip on his shirt didn't loosen; instead, it tightened even more. Clinton just gave him a look of IDGAF.
"We received some information while we were away, and it's best to discuss it right now instead of you two having a heated moment." Phoenix said at umupo ulit.
Naghiwalay ang dalawa at lumayo. Buti naman ay tapos na.
"Bago kayo dumating may nalaman si Parker tungkol sa kumidnap sa kanila." Pagsisimula ni Ice.
Nilabas ko ang handkerchief na nasa bulsa ko at nilapag sa lamesa.
"One of the abductors probably left it, or it fell from his pocket." Rowan said.
"Where?" Logan asked. Clinton chucked.
"Kung di kalang sana umalis edi sana alam mo na to."
"Clinton." Rowan warned him and Clinton just gritted his teeth.
"They saw it in the forest." I said and touched my wounded arm. It's aching so much, and I'm just enduring the pain to avoid worrying the others. I saw Phoenix looking at me. What's up with her?
I looked away from her gaze and rubbed my head. It's been aching since earlier; the doctor said I lost a bit of blood, which might be why I'm feeling dizzy. I saw in my peripheral vision that Phoenix stood up and got something from the kitchen.
"Here." I only realized she was beside me when she handed me a glass of water. I don't know but it's making me nervous. ಠ_ಠ
I took the glass of water and drank it. Thanks to her, my throat is feeling wet now.
"Thank you." She nodded and took the empty glasses, putting them on the table. She seems kind right now. Earlier, she was telling me not to mind her own business, and now she gave me a glass of water. Nevermind, kakalimutan ko nalang to.
"That's what happened." Rowan said and I gave them a look of confusion. Hindi ko napansin na tapos na pala sila mag explain kina Logan.
"Hmm. We also found something earlier. When I was taking Phoenix out, because I arrived here before Sera, we heard Mr. Chua talking to someone on the phone in his office. The door was slightly open, and we heard him say something about 'Lächeln'." Logan said, I heard Sera chuckled sarcastically.
"Thanks to you, di mo sinunod sinabi ko sayo."
Rowan faked a cough. Nagtagpo ang dalawang kilay ni Logan and I sigh deeply. Another fight again.
"I wonder why someone on the phone earlier was shouting and punching, maybe against the wall." Parang nag iisip si Sera at alam ko she's teasing Logan.
"Don't start a fight again." Sera stopped suddenly when Rowan spoke. She had authority in her tone.
Napansin kong wala na yung panyo sa table at nakita kong hawak ito ni Phoenix ngayon. She's looking at it.
"Well, well, well. The Prodigies." Someone is clapping and chuckling at the door, and it's the Owner of the Campus who came.
"Mr. Chua?"
