Chapitre Vingt-Sept:
THE BATTLE IN COSMOS (PART TWO)

Three days ago...

—Henry Vernon

"Dad, sigurado ka bang ikaw lang mag-isa ang pupunta doon sa kung saan ka man pupunta? Eh ano namang gagawin mo doon? Hindi ka naman mapapahamak, diba?"

I just gave him a deep sigh as an indirect answer to all of his questions. And yes... that's my one and only son... Feeling ko nga nananaginip ako ngayon dahil pagkatapos ng halos seven years na pagtatago para lang hindi malaman ng Creature of the Void na nabuhay ulit ako at para din sa punyetang strange trails na kailangan ko ring sundin ay nakita ko na rin siya ngayon.

But because I need to do something else, I also need to go—which means we will be separated again.

"Don't be scared, Wesley. Kaya ko naman na ang sarili ko." I patted my son's right shoulder and slightly smiled at him. "Then also, baka sa day of launch na ulit kita makita. I just need to prepare something huge, okay?"

Wesley just looked at me and nodded his head too. After a few seconds, he hugged me tightly, and I did the same.

"Dad, please... Mag-iingat ka, okay?" mahina niyang bulong sa left ear ko.

"Of course, Wesley. We must follow the strange and unknown trails to be fine..."

Marami ang pinagbago ni Wesley ngayon. He's not like then that was too clueless about what's happening in his surroundings. He also has better skills in fighting and is more mature than ever. Pero kahit na maraming nagbago sa kanya ngayon ay ramdam ko pa rin na nawawala ang pagiging soft-hearted niya...

Katulad ng nanay niya.

Ayokong umiyak ngayon dahil naalala ko na naman siya—si Fleura—kaya bago pa ako makita ni Wesley na naluluha ay umalis na agad ako.

I didn't say goodbye to him. I just walked away from him and left that campsite. To be honest though, Claira has a great campsite and group of people to work with for this battle. At kahit na ilang araw pa lang kaming magkakilala ay magaan na agad ang loob ko sa kanya.

And that makes me feel weird too.

Ewan ko ba, pero iba talaga ang pakiramdam ko sa Claira na 'yan. Hindi naman masama like parang may tinatago siyang kasamaan or whatsoever. Pero may kung ano talaga akong nararamdaman na somehow we're both too connected to each other—kahit na bwisit na 'yan, hindi ko na alam sa instincts ko.

Bago ako pumunta doon sa lugar na kung saan talaga ako pupunta ay may dinaanan muna ako, which is my secret place, para kunin ang tinatago kong motorbike doon. Hindi na ako magbibigay pa ng ilang descriptions tungkol dyan sa secret place ko kasi malamang, secret nga eh.
