Chapter 56: Declaration

Author's Note

You guys should listen to kokoronashi by Majiko. Her voice makes it more emotional. Just imagine Midnight singing the way she does. :P

Zeus' POV

"Zeus?" tawag ni Gray sakin kaya napatingin ako sa kama niya. Nandito pa rin kami ni Violet sa hospital. Kami lang ang natira para magbantay sa kanya.

"How bad is she feeling right now?" nag-aalalang tanong niya.

"It's like it's Sin's death anniversary all over again" simpleng sagot ko. 

I'm not even exaggerating, that's how sad she's feeling right now. The only reason we're not having a break down is because I'm not sad. Kaya kami sobrang lungkot kapag death anniversary ni Sin is because pareho kaming malungkot, but right now, nababalanse yung emotion namin dahil wala akong rason para malungkot din. Pero si Zoi... Yung lungkot niya ngayon... Hays.

"If she's with Xanxus, I'm sure she'll be fine. It may not be obvious but he's a gentleman when it comes to Vongola women" mahinang sabi ni Vi. I looked at her kaya napaiwas siya ng tingin. I've been lying down, my head on her thigh, ever since everyone went to look for my sister.

"I doubt that" komento ko while remembering all the times Xanxus Dreyar treated Zoi like she's the strongest person in the whole universe. I hated it. I hated him.

Zoi's not weak, she's physically as strong as I am, but not emotionally. And Xanxus always disregards that.

"Just because binibaby mo ang kakambal mo eh hindi na ibig sabihin non na hindi na siya mabibaby ng iba, Zeus" napapoker face ako sa sinabi niya.

"Zoi doesn't need pampering" I said. "She doesn't need any man to be okay" umupo ako para maharap siya. She's wearing a very thick glasses right now as her disguise para hindi niya mapalala ang sitwasyon ni Grayson.

"No one's saying your sister needs a man to be okay, Zeus" natatawang sabi niya as if trying to mock me.

"I'm just worried Zoi would look at this the wrong way"

"What do you mean?" takang tanong ni Violet.

"Lady Zoi has always been unique. She sees good in other people even when everyone disagrees with her. She always look at things differently" singit ni Gray.

"Just because you don't see it the way she does, doesn't make it wrong, Zeus. Your sister managed to make my hard headed brother and 5 other dangerous guys follow her on her own. She'll be fine" malambing na sabi na niya habang nakangiti. Napabuntong hininga nalang ako.

Death's POV

"Why would you ruin this for me, Hunter?" napalingon siya sakin nang marinig niya ang boses ko. I can clearly see anger in his eyes. He's always been angry at me, but this time it's different.

"I ruined this for you?!" tumayo siya mula sa pagkakaupo sa may ugat ng malaking puno. "You're actually blaming this on me when your face is the reason why I'm losing her?!?" galit na sigaw niya.

"Lumabas din ang totoo!" inis na sigaw ko sa kanya. "They're right. You've been waking up to be with her" realization hit me when I said it out loud. He's been waking up for her.

"Is that so wrong?!" tanong niya. "After all of the suffering you've caused me, she is the only light that makes me feel alive! And yet you have to ruin that for me too!!" sigaw niya na nakapagpatulala sakin sa kanya. Something broke inside of me seeing my brother cry. Seeing him break down for losing her.
