Heartfilia's Premises

Epilogue

A school year inside the Heartfilia Academy gave me the best of life by bringing me the missing piece of my life. It brought me back and made me remember and know who I really was and am.

"Ate, are you already pack up?"

Napalingon ako sa pintuan ng aking kwarto nang marinig ko ang boses ni Allen mula roon. He was already leaning on the doorpost while crossing his arms on his chest.

"I am. Aalis na ba tayo?" tanong ko at isinara ko na ang sling bag ko.

"Yeah. Mom's already on the car. Let's go," aniya at kinuha ang maliit na maletang dadalhin ko pabalik sa Pilipinas.

Tahimik lang ako habang nasa byahe kami papunta sa airport. Only mom and Allen were talking. Hindi ko rin masundan ang pinag-uusapan nila dahil kaagad kong isinuot ang earphones ko nang sumakay ako sa sasakyan.

Retired Lieutenant Sebastian arranged our family a private plane. I am thankful that my mom did not make it hard for us.

Maybe the time that let go of dad was the same time that he let go of the past and now, she is coming back with us.

Hindi nagtagal ay nakarating din kami sa airport. Isinuot ko ang sunglasses ko nang lumabas ako sa sasakyan. Narinig ko pang tinawag ako ni Allen ngunit hindi ko na siya nilingon and maybe he felt that I am not in the mood for talking kaya hindi niya na rin ako hinabol pa.

After what happened four weeks ago, my mom told me to go back to Australia. Alam kong nag-alala siya sa akin nang malaman niya ang mga nangyari sa akin noong sumugod ang Luna Empire.

It was also the Heartfilias who arranged a private flight for me.

I waited for Nazaire for a week but there was no him. Hindi ko man gustuhing umalis nang hindi ko siya nakikita ay wala na akong nagawa nang si mommy na mismo ang nakiusap sa akin.

I did not know and I still don't know what happened to him after he left the island. Tanging sina Axel, Weiss, Justine at Warnell na lamang ang bumalik sa mansyon nang araw na iyon.

Ang sabi nila ay nauna raw si Nazaire na umalis. I asking his father, Tito Niccolai, even after I arrived in Australia but he was not with him.

I even asked for Iana's help to trace his location but he is really nowhere.

"Ate, what if he is still not there?" tanong ni Allen sa akin matapos ang humigit-kumulang na labintatlong oras na byahe namin sa himpapawid.

"Then I will look for him, Len. Be it on the other side, I don't care. I need to see him," tugon ko sa kanya at muli kong ibinalik ang mga mata ko sa dinadaanan naming.

Papunta kami ngayon sa naiwang mansyon dito nina mommy at daddy. I never thought that we have a mansion here. Sa pagkakaalam ko kasi dati, ibinenta na lahat ng ari-arian namin ni mommy. But I guess, this mansion is Heartfilias' property.

"Leigh, have you contacted Iana?" nabaling ang tingin ko kay mommy na nasa harapan ko at nakatuon ang mga mata niya sa akin habang hinihintay akong sumagot.

"Yes mom. Nasa mansyon na raw ang mga Cereza," tugon ko.

SInuri ako ng mga mata ni mommy ngunit hindi ko na siya nilingon ulit.

She is aware of what is happening to me. My mom, being close to the Bernards, is aware that Nazaire is nowhere to find.

The last words that I heard from him still makes me feel nervous. He was looking for the masterminds of the killing of my father and Jax's family.

At ang alam ko rin, galing na mismo sa mga Heartfilia na may mga nabubuhay pang Luna na nakatakas sa engkwentro.

Arturo Lebres was not caught. Kahit na nilibot na nila ang isla at ang ilan pa sa mga karatig isla ay walang bangkay ni Arturo na natagpuan and as long as there is no corpse, the Heartfilias believe that Luna Empire's leader is still alive.
