Chapter 29

Klein's POV

I tried to reach dad's mobile phone.

"Klein? Is there any problem. Bakit ka napatawag?"he said on the other line.

"How long have you been keeping this away from me?"galit kong bungad sa kanya.

"What are you talking about Klein?"tanong nito sa kabilang linya.

"You know exactly what I am talking about. How long have you been keeping my own brother away from me?"tila nagulat ito. Sarkastiko na ang tono ng pananalita ko.

"I'm sorry Klein. Naduwag lang--"Hindi ko siya pinatapos sa pagsasalita.

"Why do you have to be so selfish? Pagiging ama mo lang naman ang hinihingi niya pero pati iyon ipinagkait mo sa kanya. You took away everything from him!"panunumbat ko sa kanya.

"Let me explain--"I cut him off again.

"Now I had to endure the fact that my own brother hates me and it's all your fault"binabaan ko siya ng telepono.

Nangagalaiti kong nailapag ang telepono. I was so naive not to know that he was keeping something away from me.

And it was my own brother.

Nagpahangin muna ako sa veranda. I tried to clear my mind. I want to gain my brothers trust. But I don't know where to start.

Napabuga ako sa hangin.

Nakarinig ako ng mga yabag patungo sa kinauupuan ko. It was Vienesse.

"Is anything wrong? Come on spill it up. Hindi makakatulong kung sasarilinin mo lang ang problema mo"she tried consoling me.

"My own brother despises me. At wala man lang akong magawa upang punuan ang mga bagay na ipinagkait sa kanya ng daddy"I sighed again in desperation.

"But I thought everything was all right. Did you have an argument with Reeve?"I looked away.

"It was all a facade. Galit siya sa akin. Sa amin ni papa. I want to make it up to him but I don't know how to start"tumingin ako sa malayo.

"Everything would be fine in the end Klein. We have a battle we should look forward to. We should not take our eyes off our goal. I will help you gain his trust but now kailangan muna nating igupo ang grupo ng mga bandido"she explained.

Nanatiling malungkot ang mukha ko.

Niyaya niya ako papunta sa lab ni Mr. Westley. I went with her.

Mas maganda ang orihinal na laboratoryo ni Mr. Westley. Naroon rin si Reeve. Namagitan sa amin ang katahimikan.

"Reeve, I will show you how this weapons works"si Vienesse ang nagpasiyang i show case ang mga gawa ko.

"Please stand back"pinalayo niya kami saka itinapon ang particle bomb. Nasa labas sila ng bahay.

There was a big explosion.

Vienesse held the laser gun in her hand. She aimed the gun at the nearby tree. It exploded in million pieces.

They brought a big fruit. Again, Vienesse sliced the fruit in half using the ultra thin sword.

By the look of Reeve's face, he was impressed. Klein's inventions were weapons of the modern world.

"Glad you're inventions could help cladestone vill"he faced me. His face was expressionless. As he turned away I could feel the sudden jolt of pain again.

Humahangos na umuwi si Ren Saga.

"Mr. Reeve the whole orchard was intentionally set on fire. I had a hunch it was made by the bandits"worried was on her face.

Inihanda na ng grupo ang mga gamit.
Naghanda nang umalis ang grupo kasama kina Klein.

The place was breathtakingly beautiful. Isang oras kaming naglakbay.

Malayo pa lang amoy na namin ang usok. Nagliliyab ang buong orchard.
Tinignan ko si Reeve. He looked devastated.

"Mahalaga ang orchard na ito sa mga mamamayan. They spent most of their time growing these plants"napabuga ito sa hangin.

Mabilis akong nagisip. May malaking tanke ng tubig sa di kalayuan. May nakahanda ding malalaking hose.

"Ginagamit nyo ba ang tubig na nasa tangkeng iyon?"ininguso ko ang tanke.

"We use it to store water from rain to be used if cladestone vill has some shortage in water"si Mendev.

Sinubukan kong buksan ang tubig. But it wouldn't budge. Sinubukan akong tulungan ni Vienesse.

"I could give you a hand"tinulungan niya ako.

Nabuksan iyon. The water gushed soundly. Isang oras bago naapula ang sunog.

"Good thinking Klein"puri sa akin ni Mendev. Tinulungan kami ng mga taong maapula iyon. The plants are hurted badly. Nagmistulang uling ang mga pananim.

"Let's call it a day"Mendev motioned us to go home. On our way home, I recieved glances from Reeve. Hindi ako nagpahalatang alam kong tinitignan niya ako.
