Lucky's POV

When I woke up the next morning I was surprised because here I was lying in bed, it was clear in my memory earlier, I passed out on the floor and not here on my bed.

I took a deep breath and shook my head, putting out of my mind the wonder of how I fell asleep.

Bumangon na ako at pumasok sa banyo saka naligo, makalipas ang ilang oras ay natapos na akong mag-ayos ng sarili kaya kinuha ko na ang bag ko na naglalaman ng mga gamit ko saka lumabas ng kwarto.

Nasa bag ko na ang mga gamit para kung sakaling aalis kami ay hindi na ako mag-aabala pa sa pag-aayos ng mga gamit.

After I left, Zaphael came out of his room, just like me. We were both stunned and it wasn't time to open and close my lips, but no words wanted to come out, I swallowed and turned away.

I can feel his gaze so I'm awkward especially when I remember what happened in his room.

“Good morning,” He greeted me and I greeted him back without looking at him. I started walking to the kitchen to eat breakfast. I felt like he was just following me.

Pag dating namin sa kusina tahimik kaming lahat pero napansin kong pasulyap-sulyap si Jorvina sa amin ni Zaphael, hindi ko na lang pinansin.

Nang matapos kaming kumain ay lumabas na kami ng bahay, tulad ng dati ay sumakay na kami sa karwahe at biglang nag tanong sa akin si Jorvina.

“What's your problem with Zaphael?” I looked at her with a frown, she suddenly laughed and stopped, then her face became serious.

“Problem? What do you mean?” She's smirk at me.

“Oh come on, don't get mad yet. I notice you two, so tell me,” She was staring at me, so my forehead furrowed even more.
“Tell me what happened?” I slapped my forehead because of what she was saying.

Should I tell her what happened in Zaphael's room? No way!

“It's nothing.” I sparingly replied to her then tilted and when I tilted, Zaphael's face greeted me because he was asleep and just next to me.

Before, not a day or even an hour passed that we didn't quarrel but now it's not much, I suddenly remembered what he had said before that he would save me. That he was willing to use his body as a barrier to prevent me from being hit by a knife, to this day, what he said is still clear in my mind.

I didn't expect him to tell me that because I thought he was so annoyed with me that he didn't care about what happened to me but like what, I thought it was wrong because he was ready to do everything just to save me but I would never let him do that.

Ipinapangako ko na gagawin ko ang lahat para hindi niya gawin iyon, para hindi siya malagay sa panganib dahil lang sa pagliligtas sa akin.

Napapikit ako at pag dilat ko ay napakunot ang noo ko nang makita kong nakatingin sa 'kin si Alas pero n'ong nakita niya akong tumingin sa kaniya ay agad siyang umiwas ng tingin at pumikit.

What's with that man? It was as if he wanted to say something but he couldn't.

I just ignored that and then decided to sleep first.

Nang huminto ang aming karwahe ay lumabas na kaming lahat at pag labas ko ay napansin kong nasa dalampasigan na kami.

Maglalakad na sana ako patungo sa isang bangka na naka-angkla doon ng biglang hinawakan ni Linglie ang kamay ko kaya napatingin ako sa kaniya at nangunot ang noo.

Namangha kami ni Zaphael nang kinuha ni Linglie ang hangin at biglang nag bago ang tubig dagat, naging light blue ang dark blue na tubig at parang tsunami dahil mataas ang alon pero hindi gumagalaw.

It looks like ice but it is not hard and only in the middle part there are big and high waves.

Zaphael and I looked at each other with an unbelievable expression, what happened last night suddenly disappeared from our minds because of what we see today.

Zaphael and I came out of our mouths at the same time, “Wow!” Jorvina walked forward and pressed her palm together then opened it at the same time, and it moved suddenly the high wave split in the middle, so Zaphael and I were even more amazed.

Naunang naglakad si Jorvina sa hating dagat, inapakan ang lupa na parang hindi tubig kani-kanina lang.

“What are you waiting for? Let's go.” I blinked and seemed confused.

“This is the road to the Atlantic Kingdom.” I nodded at what Linglie said and after she said that she followed Jorvina on foot, Nizza and Alas also followed, as well as the rebels. Only Zaphael and I were the only ones left here on the beach.

Nagkatinginan kami at sabay kaming napalunok, may pagdadalawang-isip sa puso namin na mag lakad na rin doon dahil baka kapag bigla kaming pumunta doon ay mahulog ang tubig at lamunin kami.

“Zaphael...” I could also see the apprehension in Zaphael's eyes, I was about to shake my head but I couldn't because Jorvina suddenly shouted and called us.

“Don't be afraid, this path is natural, so you will not be harmed.”

Zaphael and I were still hesitant when we looked at Jorvina.

“Kung ano man ang iniisip niyong masamang mangyayari ay alisin niyo sa inyong isipan, hindi kayo magtatagal sa mundong ito kung laging may takot sa inyong mga puso.” We were surprised by what Linglie said because it was meaningful but she was right.

Hindi kami tatagal sa mundong ito kung paiiralin namin ang takot na sumugal at sumubok. Sabay kaming tumango ni Zaphael saka nag lakad papunta sa kanila.

When we got closer, we were completely amazed because the water was so beautiful, it was a bit glowing, we walked in the middle of the split water.

I feel like I'm going crazy with what I see because there are fish in the water but it doesn't go into the split water, they are only there in the water. The sea we are walking on is like an aquarium, a huge aquarium.
