Chapter 35: The Result

Delikado na kapag pareho kaming tatawagan ni Zoiren ng tulong dito.

"Ok, I'm getting fine. Thank you, Zenrie-chan," he said and smiled. Unti-unti na ring bumubuti ang kalagayan niya't umupo na rin sa tabi ko.

Pinagitna talaga ako ng dalawang 'to.

"Ayos ka lang ba? Kulang na lang pati ikaw magiging kuneho na sa pagtalon," pag-aalalang tanong ni Zoiren ngunit nakangisi pa habang nakatingin sa kanya.

Jairus' brows narrowed at him. "I don't know if you're worried or just satisfied seeing me startled with that creature," he sighed exasperatedly and turn his gaze to the sea.

"Pasensya na."

Sa oras na kasama ko talaga ang dalawang 'to, hindi ko alam kung mabubuwiset ako sa mga maliliit nilang away at nagiging referee o matatawa na lang sa kanila. I'm not that showy when it comes to my friend's affection and care towards them. Kahit si Mimi alam 'yon.

Doon lang kasi ako nagiging madaldal kapag komportable ako sa mga nakakasalamuha ko.

Ilang saglit lang ay umilaw ang aming notification icons. Sa senyas pa lang nito ay mukhang nagpapahiwatig na sa aming nandito na rin ang resulta.

"Ready?" I asked them before we could push the button. Pareho na rin silang tumango kahit napalunok nan g laway si Zoiren sa kaba.

Hindi na rin kami nag-alinlangang buksan ang notification at tumambad na rin sa wakas ang mga resulta. Habang hinahanap ko ang aking pangalan, Jairus suddenly ruffle my hair with a big smile on his face.

"Congrats Zenrie-chan! You made it," nakangiting bati niya sa'kin habang napataas pa rin ako ng mga kilay kung bakit.

On the other hand, mistula naman akong niyagyag ni Zoiren habang hinawakan ako sa magkabilang balikat at gaya nga ni Jairus ay malaki rin ang ngiti niya. "Iba talaga ang commander namin. Congrats Zenrie!"

Just as they congratulated me, I already found my name on the results. And the reason why they're celebrating was I got the top rank from the blind spot test based on the time consumed.

1. Zenrie

2. Jairus

3. Althea

4. Zoiren

5. Emerson

6. Andy

7. Ranzou

8. Ellah

9. Calyx

10. Lezmond

11. Rupert

Shoot. I think I used my senses overly. Gusto ko lang naman maging low key.

"You truly deserve to celebrate," masayang wika ni Jairus habang kinuha niya ang isa pang slice ng tiramisu cake sa kanyang student's window. Ganoon na rin ang ginawa ni Zoiren sa kape.

"Deserve mo 'yan. Kaya, ngumiti ka na."

I'm too stunned to speak. I'd never seen them having this simple effort to cheer me up since yesterday. After what happened last night, I keep overthinking some possible outcomes that may trigger myself to think that I won't be their added burdens since they also have different battles too. I tend to keep everything from them, even my secret identity that I'm the top rank player and Black Navillerian Angelus.

I have a hard time to trust others because of those fragments of the past. But seeing them smiling and comfortable around me, I'm starting to feel safe little by little.
