Mag-log in“DISGUSTING,” KATLEYA MUTTERED when she came out of the bathroom. Her expression showed how uncomfortable she was in the underwear she wore.Blue couldn’t help but smile at the sight of his friend. Katleya was frowning so deeply as if the world had deprived her of joy.She sat beside Blue, facing him with something on her mind. Blue immediately noticed her hesitation.“What is it?” he asked.“What will happen to your family?” Katleya asked with worry.Blue didn’t answer. Instead, he lay back on the bed, sighed, and used his arms as a pillow. He rested his feet on her legs.Katleya held his foot. “Hey! I’m asking you. What about your family? Will you let them lose another child again?”“This is for them,” Blue replied faintly.“Don’t believe what Auntie Belinda said. Everything happens for a reason.”“And I am the reason for everything. She’s right. I bring a curse to my family—about what happened to Pinkerlia and to…” His words faltered, and his eyes brimmed with tears. He t
BLUE GAINED COURAGE from what Katleya said. He stood up, cupped his hands around his mouth, and shouted, “Red! I miss you so much! I love you so deeply! I promise I will love and take care of Katleya. She’s your princess, right? I can be her soldier and protect her!”“Red! I promise I’ll take care of this child you left with me!” Katleya shouted as well.Blue’s jaw dropped and he looked at her in shock. “You’re pregnant, Kat?”“Idiot! I was talking about you,” Katleya answered, crying as she wiped her tears.Blue pouted. “I’m not a child anymore. I’m a big boy now.”Katleya hugged him tightly. “Don’t be sad. I’m here. I’ll take care of you, too.”The two of them lay on the ground, both staring at the sky.“I’m sorry I left,” Blue said.“Why did you suddenly disappear without even saying goodbye? What was your reason? You made everyone worry. You made me worry,” Katleya said.“Auntie Belinda,” Blue admitted, fighting back a sob.Katleya raised an eyebrow. “Why? What did she
BLUE HELD BACK his anger as he sobbed behind the van. His chest tightened even more when Rosa began to speak. He wanted to embrace her and console her, but he couldn’t do anything. He peeked from where he stood and watched Rosa crying while delivering her message to her late grandson.“I’m sorry, Grandma,” Blue whispered.When Rosa finished, Grey, Green, and Katleya stood up. The three of them went to the front together. It was their turn to give their final message to their beloved Red. Green spoke first.“Red, it still hurts so bad. You know, Red was different from the four of us. We’re the wild ones, and he was the angel in the sky.” He chuckled. “I’m not ashamed to admit it because it’s true. Every time Grey, Blue, and I talked about lewd things, we’d immediately stop the moment he gave us that death stare. That’s the kind of person he was. He could control us. Among the four of us, I was the closest to him because sometimes, I just couldn’t handle Grey and Blue’s level of l
GREY AND BLACK were already inside the car, using Black’s vehicle. Black stared at Grey as he slowly scooted closer to him. “Move away, will you? Gross! Your face stinks,” Grey said with a teasing laugh. “Do I really stink?” Black asked. Grey smiled. “Just kidding.” “I know.” Black leaned in closer. “Here, put on your seatbelt.” “I can do it myself,” Grey insisted, buckling up. “Now move away.” “Tsk! I thought I could get a score,” Black muttered. “In your f*cking dreams.” Black’s hand slid to Grey’s thigh. “Shall we go now?” “You could’ve just asked without touching my leg.” “Why are you so overreacting? Virgin?” Black asked, annoyed. “You’re disgusting. We’re both men.” “Ouch.” Black started the car and drove to the Montenegro mansion. When they arrived, Grey immediately asked the security guard on duty outside the gate. “Chief? Did Blue come here?” Grey asked. “Yes. He was carrying a suitcase when he left. But, Sir Grey, did you know that Sir Blue was
“AUNTIE, PLEASE STOP! YOU’RE HURTING ME,” Blue pleaded.Belinda grabbed the trash bin nearby and dumped its contents onto her crying nephew. Blue was now drenched in used tissues, the stench making him retch. He could’ve fought back, but he chose to let her vent all her anger on him. For Blue, if this was what would ease Belinda’s heart, he was willing to endure all the pain she could inflict.“Get out of our lives! Don’t wait until you kill someone else again!” Belinda screamed.“But Red still needs me,” Blue replied softly.“Needs you?” Belinda scoffed before kicking him. “You’re the one who killed him! Don’t you feel any shame? Everyone blames you! Red died because of you! You’ve been a criminal since you were a child! Murderer!”“What should I do for you to forgive me, Auntie?” Blue asked, his voice trembling.“It’s simple. Disappear!” Belinda crouched to match Blue’s kneeling position. As she locked eyes with him, she delivered a hard slap across his face. “You’re carrying
WHEN BELINDA WAS finally out of Grey's sight, he let out a deep sigh, his heart still racing. His knees had been shaking while speaking to the woman, but he managed to hold himself together and not give in to fear. At that moment, he was free to get the food. After gathering what he needed, he returned to where his friend Blue was seated.“Eat now, Blue,” Grey said gently.Blue adjusted his posture and looked at Katleya. He raised his injured right arm—the one that had been shot. Katleya immediately understood what he meant. Blue wanted to be fed because he couldn’t manage to eat by himself.“Fine,” Katleya said, taking the plate from Grey.She grabbed a monobloc chair and placed the plate on it. She looked at Blue.“Because Red told me to take care of you, I will. So open your mouth,” Katleya instructed.Blue opened his mouth. He wanted to feed himself, but his injured arm made it impossible. Katleya gently placed a spoonful of food into his mouth. While Blue chewed, tears str
