GnL 2: I don't LOVE YOU [ IdLY ]

GnL 2 - Ch. 95 ~ The Brave

Chapter 95

Flame's POV

Doubtful ako sa Leandrong to. It feels that I know him from somewhere. Saglit akong nag-isip. His voice.. His voice.. His voice is way much familiar. Napapaisip talaga ako.

"Fine. I'll open the vault." Halos mabaliw ako nang marinig kong sabi ni Mei. Yaman ng buong henerasyon ng Highness ang pinag-uusapan dito. Pero di ko rin masisisi si Mei. Huminga ako ng malalim. Whatever happens, she will always have my back.

Nagkatinginan kami ni Mei. Tinanguan niya ako para senyasang tumabi ako saka inalis ang kamay kong nakapatong sa balikat nito. Wala akong nagawa kundi tumabi. Naglakad pabalik si Mei sa pader na kinatatalian ko kanina.

May kung anong kinapa roon. She then pressed one brick inward. Napapailing na lang akong nakatingin habang nag-iilaw ang parte ng pader na yun. Gusto kong humakbang pero ilang baril ang nakatutok sakin ngayon.

"Flame, it's okay."pag-aassure ni Mei kahit nahihimigan ko na sa boses nito na parang maiiyak na ito.

Hinarap nito ang pader na nag-ilaw, meaning she needs to do the eye scan. Nilapit naman nito ang mukha sa scanner.

EYE SCAN COMPLETE.

Kinakabahan ako. Shit. Kinikilabutan ako habang nagfaflashback sa utak ko ang isang bagay na nabanggit nito noong mga panahong una kaming nagkasama, bago siya maging Sorella.

"Marmeia Candice. Both are composed of seven letters. There's no seven in my name unlike Sev and Neves, but mine has already seven letters on each of it. Marmeia was the name of the first Sorella many decades ago. It was her shortened name. It was actually Maria Mercia Cadenza. And she was a Navarro. She was our great-great-great grandmother. It was not known in our circle because the men in our family don't want to earn our title through our last name. We don't want to use it as our advantage. It's our pride as a family na kung magiging Highness at Sorella man ang mga future generations namin, it is because we truly work for it. Eventually, she was chosen to be the one who will keep all the treasures of the Highness, from generations to generations. In tribute to her, my parents named me after her. Down to our generation, I was the chosen key."

Yan ang history ng pangalan niya.

At first, di ko pa gaanong nagets noon yung implication ng sinasabi nyang sya ang key. But a year ago, I learned from my dad na magsasagawa nga daw ng malakihang pagpapalit ng storage kung saan ililipat ang lahat ng mga ari-arian ng mga Highness. That's when I think that it all make sense.

Sunod na nag-appear sa computerized screen ang palm detector.

THIS BIOMETRIC SCANNING ITSELF IS DRIVING ME INSANE.

Napapailing na lang ako. This is a very confidential matter pero wala na rin kaming choice ni Mei. Sinulyapan ko si Ice. Wala na rin itong malay na nakabulagta sa sahig but I know he's still breathing base sa pag-akyat-baba ng mga balikat nito.

FINGERPRINTS COMPLETE.

Napapikit ako.

It is so hard for me to stand here na walang nagagawa habang binibigay ni Mei sa mga halang ang kaluluwang demonyong to ang yaman ng organisasyong kinabibilangan namin. Being a Highness is a luxurious pride to all of us. We highly devote ourselves to it. Pinaghirapan naming lahat ang titulong ito! Once you become a Highness or a Sorella, your entirety as a person is considered as a royalty.

And for the last part, nag-appear sa screen na kailangan ng ipasok ang panghuling password.

"Mei.." Aligagang tawag ko sa kanya pero di na niya ko pinakinggan.
