#MultiverseInterludeChapter10

"What the fuck?" I unbelievably cursed at him. Seryoso lang siyang nakatingin sa 'kin, alam kong pinipigilan niya lang ang sarili niyang hindi matawa sa naging reaction ko.

"What the fuck am I going to do in Bogata?! Nababaliw na ba siya?" seryoso ang mukha niyang nakatingin sa 'kin, but for a second he shut his eyes off and laugh.

I was left with my mouth wide-open, was about to say something pero hindi na lang dahil kilalang-kilala ko na siya. He would probably still laugh at my reaction. 

"Relax Aly," ngumisi siya at sumandal sa veranda na may sculpture figures at nanatiling nakatingin sa 'kin, he placed his face on his palms and also leaned his elbow do'n sa may figure.

"Yuliana is part of district 6 known as Bogata, the capital city of Colombia. Means, she's still in there but nowhere to be found. We both know that the President and the Commander of River 8 know where she at, how could they give us a mission in Bogata if they don't know where?" sabi niya na may pa actions pang nalalaman.

"Pack your things or never, you choose; we're leaving in an hour." Nasakal ako sa sinabi niya pinanlakihan ng tingin.

"What?!" Hindi makapaniwalang sabi ko sa kanya. 

"If we don't leave right now, so kailan pa? We need to hurry Alyona," he said looking away from my gaze, I was left with nothing and rolled my eyes.

***

"I have no time to pack my things," pag-amin ko sa kanya habang tahimik na kumakain sa dining table ng mga Yapchengco, it was almost a whisper since I don't want to bother anyone in this table.

"It's not a big deal nor a problem," sagot niya at hindi man lang ako sinulyapan ng tingin.

"Anong hindi big deal? Nababaliw ka na ba?!" muntik ng nangibabaw ang boses ko dahil sa inis.

"Hindi mo ba ako hayaang magpalit ng damit? I need fresh under garments, I need my hygeinic stuffs and more! Lalo na yung mga dresses ko and mga damit na palagi kong sinusuot, now tell me how is it not important to you?" Napatingin sa 'kin si Uncle Diego, I apologetically smiled at him, ganoon 'din kay Auntie Valkyrie, their faces remained calm and fierced, wala man lang emosyon.

"I can provide them for you Mira, and see? There's no problem with that, you can buy clothes, food, and anything you needed out there, feel free to use my card and I don't care how much you're going to spend." my jaw clenched, and rolled my eyes when he mentioned that name again.

Hindi ko na siya sinagot pa at mabilis na inubos ang pagkain na nakahanda sa aking plato. After we ate, I reach out to my best friend Dwight to ask for a spare of clothes because I wanted to change into a comfo0rtable outfit.

I hate traveling with the clothes I'm wearing, I want them soft and very feel like home.

"You looked stressed and annoyed," aniya habang hinahalukay ang closet niya ng pweding ipahiram sa 'kin.

"It's because the both of you, why didn't you tell me that Kaila is in Bogata? I could have prepared my things!" inis na sabi ko at hinayaang malunod ang sarili sa kanyang king sized bed, he chuckled annoyingly to my ears and answered.

"It wasn't part of the mission I gave you, it was from your brother." bigla ako  napatayo sa kama ng ma realize ko ang lahat ng sinabi niya at ni Avo. "I told you that this mission he gave you was intentional, I know what he's up to. Kind of similar to something that I can't tell you."

I drew out a deep sigh and took the clothes he picked for me out of his hands, and went inside his bathroom to change. After changing clothes inside his bathroom, wala ng tao sa silid niya kaya I decided to go out na after.

"What are you doing here?" I was startled when I saw him in front of Dwight's door, he was leaning on the wall while crossing his arms; brows furrowed like he was judging me.

"C-changing my clothes? Why? Are we late na ba sa flight?" I asked in confusion.

"I see, but yeah; we're late," walang emosyong sabi niya at nilagpasan ako, I immediately followed him with that.

Hindi ko na lang pinansin ang pag-akto niya ngayon. He might be thinking we did something in my best friend's room when it was in the first place I was just borrowing some spare clothes and changed. He might be jealous.

I smiled with that thoughts as I finally stepped inside the private jet. We are both seating in front of each other, tahimik lang siya at maya-maya ay napagdesisyunan niyang mag basa ng libro. at napili niya pa talaga ang paborito namin pareho.

I chuckled and busied myself with my phone on Tiktok. Kahit hindi nakakatawa, tumatawa ako out of boredom, ang boring kasi ng kasama ko halos mabingi ako sa katahimikan niya. When I got bored with tiktok, I switched on Instagram and scrolled on my reels instead. 

But it is still the same. Padabog kong nilapag ang phone sa table na nasa gitna na 'min, he immediately put down the news paper and raised his brow at me. I reach out to my lips and lightly bit my thumb, trying to look somewhere to avoid his serious look at me.

"Is there any problem you want to discuss for us to fix?" his brows raised more, waiting for me to answer his curiosity.

I just gave him an apologetic smile and turned my chair behind him, I adjusted my seat so I can spread my legs over it and calm myself by sleeping. But I failed to put myself to sleep. Umintriga ang kasipagan kong buksan ang laptop para magsulat.

I saw his mouth wide open while looking at me, hindi ko na siya pinansin dahil nabibingi ako sa kanyang mga tipo sa buhay. I began typing something on Notion, an app that is very helpful for me to write easily kasi maari mo siyang ma dark-mode. 

I honestly hate writing on Wattpad to update my books dahil walang darkmode options sa windows, which is nakakaiinis sa part ng mga darkmode fans.

I prepared the empty page for myself to type and opened my Spotify account to play my playlist, I took my AirPods out of my sling bag and connected them to my Bluetooth. The first song that began playing was Seafret's big hit, Atlantis.

I remained looking at the empty page as I closed my eyes while listening; I always do this before I could even come up with an idea.

And then the song finally hit a nerve on me, it runs all over me; through my veins and the deepest part of my heart.

Maybe I'll just keep in here until I feel like losing myself.

A long time have already past and we're about to land in a minute now, sabay kaming nag fastened ng seatbelt. Nagkatininginan kami pero hindi siya muli nagsalita dahilan ng pagkabingi ko.

I drew out a deep breath and just letting it past, mawawala lang rin naman iyon mamaya kapag hindi niya na kayang tiisin ang hindi ako pansinin.

The hell am I thinking? Bakit ako humahalukat ng mga memoryang nasa aming nakaraan? Did I ever move on? Or I just loved the fact to forget everything about because of the mistake?

Fuck, it wasn't even a mistake in the first place. It was a choice and I do have a choice at that time.

When we finally landed at the Villegas's household, we got immediately welcomed by their assassins and maids who assisted us.

'Wow' That was the first word that came out of my mouth when I stepped into the land of Colombia. Ang laki ng bahay ng mga Villegas rito, they have a lesser guards but they can't just die so easily. All of them are well trained. Some are from other powerful families in the Philippines too, may ibang half rin.

"Mag pahinga ka muna, alam kong pagod ka na."

I stopped walking the moment he talked behind me. A smile formed on my lips- biting my lower lip to stop myself so I could face him with my fierce expression.

I guess I'm right.

Hindi niya na ata kayang tiisin ang problemang sinimulan niya.

"I'm fine, you should rest too," I said and turned my back immediately and walked inside the room they assigned me to stay.

I woke the next day with a very deep and good sleep. Magaan sa pakiramdam na parang walang problemang haharapin at hinaharap.

I took a care of myself and all the things I needed to do with myself were already done, kaya I immediately went downstairs na to meet up with my comrades.

In the conference room, there were a lot of people as soon as I got inside— all eyes are on me. I didn't bother to feel uncomfortable since I know all of them.

In a total of everything, we are all ten.

I silently sat down beside my ex-boyfriend. He didn't move or even reacted as if he didn't realize I was beside him.

I fisted my hands and tried so hard to punch each one of them inside this room.

Hindi mo a talaga ako papansinin? Are you just going to freaking ignore me all the time and next days, years, or whatever the fudge is the matte?

I got back to my sense when the assigned commander began to speak.

"On behalf of my twin Sister, I will be the one who's in charge of this mission." He chuckled sexily— as I observed his moves his eyes were all on this beautiful girl beside me.

I sighed.

"Be fast Clint." I smiled widely at him like I was the kindest among us in this room.
