Little Love

Chapter 6

Several months have passed, and Kyros is still working to me.

We are heading to my mom's and dad's mansion to visit them again.

I have brought flowers for them.

I have bought quite a few flowers for them.

Kyros is with me now, while Craise and Jiro are busy with their studies.

I no longer feel as lonely about what happened.

Manang stayed at home.

When we arrived at the mansion, we went straight to the backyard.

We're heading home now because we're going to rest for a while.

We just came from the office.

As we stepped out of the mansion, we saw a man.

He looked at Kyros.

"N-naaalala kita." said the man.

"You're Mr. Everdeen's son, right?" he asked Kyros.

Kyros simply nodded with a smile.

"And you're the son of the criminal?" he asked again.

"They're the ones who killed your parents." he added.

"Are you going crazy?" I asked the man.

Because I didn't want to believe what he was saying.

"Just ask Kyros' parents." he said and left.

Kyros and I were left without any emotion.

My world stopped.

It felt like I wanted to hurt someone.

"K-Kyros?" I stuttered, looking into his eyes.

"Dahlia? I-I don't know. I-I really don't know what happened, k-kahit ako ay ayo'ko sa mga magulang ko, you know that, Dahlia. Dahlia, I tru-truly don't know." Kyros continued, trembling as he spoke to me.

"Leave. Just leave, Kyros!." I shouted at him.

Just when I was starting to fall for someone.

Gusto na kita, Kyros e.

Why am I so unlucky? What is happening to me?

Kyros followed what I said.

He left me, and I cried and cried in the mansion.

I returned home with swollen eyes.

Manang approached me.

"Ma'am, what happened? Are you okay?" Manang asked me while I was trembling.

I remained silent and sat down while she fetched water for me.

Manang approached me and gently holding my back.

My life was starting to get better, but it only became more complicated now.

I have no news about Craise and Jiro.

Because they were extremely busy with their studies and knew that I was fine, and I was with Kyros anyway.

I spent several days sulking at home, gathering strength to go to the Everdeen's place and file cases against them for everything.

Ang iniisip ko lang at where I could gather evidence.

Manang took care of me properly.

She never left my side.

Kyros hasn't been contacting me. I still worry about him despite everything that has happened, but I don't want to show it.

Several days had passed, and I returned to the Mansion, hoping to see the man that Kyros and I had saw here again.
