Amelie, Maybe

21

Amelie's POV

Nakatingin lang ako sa labas. Feeling mostly numb. I can sense Titus staring at me from the other side of the limo.

I guess it was a good decision to wear black today.

Huminto kami sa tapat ng court house. Pumasok kami dun together with the guards. Mas nauna ako kay Titus but he catch up.

"What happened?"

Just found another reason to be mad.

When I stayed in silence pumunta siya sa harap ko at tiningnan ako ng diritso sa mata.

"Were you crying?" di ako sumagot "Why? Amelie tell me what's going on"

"Don't act like you care when you literally brought me to a hearing"

"What I'm asking is out of that topic Amelie"

Magsasalita na sana ako pero saktong dumating sina Lillian. Tama si Vanessa. I should just be the Amelie that they know. It would be better. Kasi kahit naman mag bago ako they would still think of me as the mean one.

Well then. They win.

I grabbed Titus' collar and pulled him towards me and kissed him.

*Gasp*

"Walang hiyang--" Shella

"Ay magpapasabonot? Hoy! Bruha ka!" Lucy shouted she was heading towards me pero pinigilan niya ng mga guards.

Agad akong tinulak ni Titus palayo. Funny how I didn't feel a pinch of pain

"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOURE DOING?!"

I smiled as big as a fake smile could get.

"It's more natural for you to hate me than to care for me Titus"

Naglakad na ako but stopped in front of Lillian. Naalala ko tuloy ang sinabi nung lalaki sa memory, Charles sacrificed me for Lillian. No wonder I hate her.

"Ano? Gusto mo away ha? Sabonotan tayo!" Lucy said while rolling her sleeves up, tudo pigil naman ang mga kasama niya.

Using my unique I dried myself up while looking dead straight on Lillian. The water I gathered formed into a fist sized water ball.

"What a pity. I planned on befriending you pa naman, but all of you decided I couldn't be trusted. Well then congratulations, I'm your villain again Lillian"

*Splash*

I dropped the water ball on Lillian's head resulting for them to be panicked and concern.

"Why you little—" Lucy charged on me but I faced her head on kaya napatigil siya at nagkatinginan kami.

"Move" sabi ko sabay tulak sa kanya gamit ang pointing finger ko

"Aba—"

"Lucy" Lillian "Tama na"

Tsk. Goody-two-shoes. Binangga ko si Lucy sa balikat ng dumaan ako.

I walked straight to the courtroom where I could see spectators circling around the area at isa doon ay ang lolo ni Amelie. Naalala ko na sa kanya lang malambot si Amelie. Sana nag mana nalang si Amelie sayo. Matiwasay siguro pamumuhay ko kung ganun.

*Thud thud*

"Everyone is required to settle down. We are about to start the hearing"

Umupo sila Titus sa nakapalibot na bleachers. Lillian on the other hand is seating on the lower left of the head minister. Ako lang ang nakatayo sa gitna. One out of three head ministers of the Light Clan is here as a judge, ah, so ganto na pala ka seryoso.
