Kapitel 23: Chapter 23: Last Wish
KRIS.
4 MINUTES BEFORE THE DETONATION..
WHEN I heard those warnings from her, I can't help but to pissed at her. She really is stupid. She likes putting herself in danger.
Inalis ko ang punyal na nakatarak sa dibdib ni Mrs. Delacroix. Corpses of our dead enemies are everywhere. As we suspected, they are all humanoids even the student council.
"Ugh. That girl! She really is stupid. Planning to sacrifice herself in order to keep us safe? Unforgivable!" Xiumin hissed habang pinaputukan ang huling alagad ng mga Delacroix.
Everyone was shocked on what we heard from her. Some students are starting to runaway and escape the campus— in order to follow what Jessica said. Some was keep on trying hard to move a bit but because they are injured, they can't.
An explosion huh? What a big trouble. I've expecting this to happened. Knowing the Delacroix, they are a bunch of dirty people and I know they are hiding their trump card so that they can use it when they lose.
They are really don't want to give up, huh.
"If we knew the location of the bomb from the start, we shouldn't go through this." Chanyeol said irritated.
"What we were gonna do, leader?" Sehun asked me and all of those idiots turned their head to me—expecting me to say something in my mind.
They are all worried about Jessica. I know. I am worried too but this isn't the time to be panic. We all taught being calm when there are times of emergency and this is not new to all of us. Kaya parang wala lang ang pinagdadaanan namin ngayon.
I cleared my throat before I speak.
"Tiffany, Yuri, and Taeyeon.." I called all the girl's by their first name.
"Yes?"
"Lend a hand for those who are injured and help them to escaped. As for me and Junmyeon's people, help the three and guide them pass through the shortest route."
"Roger." They all said in unison.
"For the remaining eleven fools, you should keep the escapees in safe and secured everything around you. We never knew if we already defeated all of our enemies or someone might be hiding behind the grasses." I added in such a calm expression.
"But what about Jessica?" Tiffany asked me.
"I will find her, help her in stopping the bomb and save her from the labyrinth." Inilahad ko ang kamay ko kay Chanyeol at mukhang alam niya ang gagawin.
Ibinigay niya sakin ang tracking device para mahanap ko kung nasaan ang tangang babaeng iyon.
"For now, we should believe in her.." I speak that in such a strong way and then they seems to understood what I've said so they started moving.
"Hey, bro." Junmyeon called me. "Promise me to keep her safe and don't die on us." I was about to answer him but he just nodded at me then turned his back from me.
I just shocked my head and then started to run to where she is. The tracking device telling me that she was in the library, where the laboratory is. I ran as fast as I could without minding anything.
I glanced at me wristwatch. It's already two minutes before the explosion. I deducted that they already on the gate. My men, I mean my comrades are the fastest people when it comes to helping people and reliable in times of emergency. They are all well—trained and great people.
I chuckled on what I thought. This was the first time I complemented against them maybe because I trust them.
Hinihingal ako nang makarating ako sa library. Laking gulat ko nang makitang nasusunog ang loob nito. I tried to open the door but it was locked.
I don't have any choice but to wrecked it by the use of my strength so I damage it. It creates a huge hole and I entered it.
"Jessica!" I called her name so she would answer me but I didn't hear any reply. That time, I lost my composure and started to panicked.
"Jessica, where are you?!" I searched for her everywhere until I found an opening behind the messy shelves.
Nagmamadali akong pumasok sa loob at doon ko nakita ang mga sirang gamit panglabaratoryo. They were all burning but I couldn't care at any of them. I want to see her. I want to know if she was okay. I want to know if she was alive.
I don't care about the fire that surrounds me, the smokes coming from the burned objects, the heat from the fire, nor the wrecked humanoids. All I care is her safety.
I've reached the end point of the whole laboratory but I can't find any single trace of her. I was about to feel hopeless until I found a girl lying in the floor and leaning in the window. She was smiling and crying while looking at something in the window.
Mabilis kong tinungo ang kinaroroonan niya. My heart skipped a bit. She was really Jessica. She is the only woman who made me feel this way.
"Jessica!" I called her making her to glance at me. Her eyes was widened when he saw me.
"Kris.." She stand up and ran to me then embraced me tightly. I hugged her back.
"You came.." she whispered while crying.
"Yes. I came for you. I am always be there for you." I kissed her forehead and hugged her again. We keep on hugging despite of what's happening in our surroundings. I know that the bombs are slowly annihilating the school campus but I don't mind about them.
I want to savour this moment. This last moment. I want to hug her until we both die in this place. I want to feel her warmth all over my body. I want to be with her until the end of my life.
This was my last wish.
JESSICA
Humiwalay ako sa pagkakayakap kay Kris nang maalala ko ang tunay na nangyayari sa paligid ko. The bombs. I failed to destroy before the time of it's detonation. It still burning. A half of them.
But then why is he here? Why is he keep on caring about me? Why he doesn't want me to die all alone? It makes me feel frustrated.
"Why did you come? You should save yourself before me. But now, I knew it's too late. The bombs are slowly exploding! You are so stupid! Jerk!" Hinampas ko ang dibdib niya habang patuloy na umiiyak.
He didn't budge nor answer. He was accepting my hit. I can't see his face because of my tears.
"I want you to be alive but look at you now. You still come and put yourself to death!" I keep on hitting him hard.
"WHY? WHY? WHY? IT MAKES ME FEEL FRUSTRATED!" I stopped and lean on his chest. I've putting all of my frustration by crying all over everything.
"Is it obvious? I want to be with you." he said seriously that made me to look at him.
His eyes was sincere. He was really serious when he said that. And I admit that it makes me feel happy though it was an act of selfishness.
"I maybe sound so selfish but I can't afford to lose you. I can't afford you to die alone. I want to be with you so that you will not be sad anymore. Thinking of us dying together makes me feel happy.." he smiled.
"Hit me hard. Hurt me. Punch me. Call me an idiot or do something terrible to me. But just always remember that despite of what terrible things you've done to me, I still want us to be together until the end because I love you." Ipinagdikit niya ang aming noo. I can feel his breath all over my face. His warmth and his nice scent.
"This was the promised we made and I don't want to break it."
Those words made me feel lighted. Parang nagkaroon ng magic dahil agad nawala ang mga mabigat na pakiramdam na nararamdaman ko. It made my heart race and my face heated, I bet I was really flustered on what he said.
And I understand now. I was feeling the same too. I want to be with him. I want us to die together. I want him to stay by my side.
"You are really an idiot." I smiled after saying that. I kissed him that made him frozen.
"I want that too. I want to be with you." I whispered. "I love you too."
He was shocked on what I said. He smiled again and grip my waist tightly then kiss me hungrily. I kissed him back.
He pulled me into him and I placed my hands on his nape. We keep on kissing each other without minding on what's happening around us. We really don't mind after all.
We really don't mind because we were together. We weren't scared because we will protect each other and fight against those bombs. We will savoured this very very last minute with him.
I heard the explosion inside this laboratory but we don't really care. We didn't give it a single attention. We really don't mind if we will survived or not atleast we still together. We will survived it together.
And that's what I thought..
I thought we will fight together until the end but I was wrong. I was the only one fighting for survival.
I thought we will protect each other but he was the only one who keeps protecting me. He doesn't want me to protect him.
It was a lie.
A lie that reminds me on how foolish I am because...
..he was no longer be with me anymore.
I survived and he wasn't with me.
Expectations were really hurt the people bad.
He sacrificed himself in order to keep me alive until the end.
I am really an useless person.
"I'm sorry, Kris." I whispered while holding his hand tightly. "Thank you." then I smiled bitterly as I kissed him in his lips.
"I love you. I love you. I love you."
Then I started to cry on his body.
