[ 50 : crimson constellations ]
WISH
"W-What are you talking about?" he stuttered, eyes getting bigger. "I am Pisces!"
"Do you know what Detective Carvajal's last words are? To check her globe." I said, smirking. "And you know what I found?"
"The queen sign," I stated. His reaction was priceless. Body shaking, fingers fidgeting, confusion plastered all over his face.
"WISH, THIS AIRPLANE WILL CRASH!" sigaw ni Blaise kaya natigilan kaming lahat. "Go get a parachute. This will self destruct in a minute!"
Agad akong tumakbo papunta kay Krystal and unleashed her. "What's happening--"
"Don't ask, I'll tell you later." seryoso kong sabi, shutting her up. "Go get a parachute. You know how to use it, right?"
She nodded her head hesitantly and followed me. Pagkatingin ko kay Grayson, wala na ito.
Lumabas kami ni Blaise sa cockpit at nakita namin ang dalawang flight attendants na tumalon gamit ang parachute. Nauna na rin si Grayson!
That sneaky coward!
Nang igala ko ang paningin ko sa loob ng eroplano, the rest of crimson people were slumped on the floor. I looked at Lincoln and Genesis with a serious look.
"What's happening?" Genesis asked. "G-Gray. . . what was he doing here?"
"The airplane will self distract. Get the parachute!" I announced, ignoring her question.
"Shit, hurry up!" bulalas ni Lincoln.
Pero nang icheck namin ang mga parachute, tatlo na lang ang natitira doon. I face palmed at napahilot sa sentido ko.
Shit just got real.
"Magpapaiwan na lang ako rito," buntong hininga ni Lincoln. Lumapit ako sa kanya at binatukan siya ng malakas. "Gravity!"
"Tanga," bulong ko. "We will survive."
I know we're on a tough situation. The airplane will literally self destruct minutes from now and we've only got five parachutes. But it's not necessary to sacrifice his own life. Because I've got a brilliant plan to solve this.
"Anong plano mo?" seryosong tanong ni Genesis na mukhang natatakot sa tatalunin namin kung sakali.
"Blaise, kaya mo bang buhatin si Krystal? Habang nasa parachute?" seryosong tanong ko.
Nanlaki ang mata ni Krystal. She even stomped her feet like the brat she is. "Ate, no way! Carry me instead!"
"Krystal." I warned, sending her a deadly stare. "We have less than a minute left. Stop defying my rules!"
She pouted her lips. "Fine! Kuya Blaise, let's hurry!"
"S-Stay safe, alright?" paalala ni Blaise at sinuot ang parachute sa katawan niya.
Niyakap niya ng mahigpit si Krystal. Both of them took a deep breath before jumping out. I heard how loud Blaise's scream was. Tsk.
Now three of us are the only ones left.
"Lincoln, wear the parachute," I commanded.
"Sino ba ang bubuhatin ko? Who's coming with me?" tanong niya. Nang maka-ready na ang kanyang parachute, I smiled from ear ot ear.
"No one. Solo ikaw." Before he could protest, tinulak ko na siya pababa. Hindi niya kaya kaming buhatin dahil may tama siya.
Nagkatinginan kami ni Genesis. I winked at her. "Carry me, Genesis."
