《Winning Her Back in My Arms》Chapter 6

"Kasal mo." Parang nahinto ang mundo ko, paanong???? Paanong napanaginipan niyang ikakasal na ako?
"At hindi ako ang groom, hindi ako ang naghihintay sayo sa may altar." Naluluha ni na namang saad.
"At ang mas masakit? Nakita ko ang tuwa sa mga mata mo, ang saya sa mga labi mo at sa mga mata ng mga taong nakapaligid sayo. I saw love when you look at your groom. At bam! Nagising ako na hindi man lang nakikita ang mukha ng lalaking naroroon. Ng lalaking papakasalan mo." Matapos niyang sabihin iyon ay bumitiw siya sa yakap at hinawakan ang mukha ko, hinaplos niya ang mga pisngi ko. Duon ko nakita ang matinding lungkot sa mga mata niya, pinahid niya ang mga luha niya ngunit hindi iyon natigil sa pagbuhos.
"Hindi naman yun totoo Jelene di ba?" Para naman akong naestatwa sa tanong niyang iyon. Oo at hindi lang naman ang sagot pero bakit parang napakahirap bigkasin ng mga salitang iyon.
Ayokong masaktan siya, ayokong maging kagaya niya! Ayokong isipin niyang nagmahal ako ng iba para masaktan lamang siya, kagaya ng ginawa niya sa akin nuon. Ayokong isipin niyang pinaasa ko lang siya nung sabihin kong dapat bawiin niya ako.
Ayoko pero dapat kong sabihin sa kaniya, dapat kong ipaalam. Ayokong umasa siya. Sinabi ko yun nuon dahil gusto kong mabuhay siya. Gusto kong makita pa siya ng anak namin. Hindi ko na ipagdadamot pa si Race sa kaniya, he is still my son's father kahit pagbali baliktarin ang mundo.
"Jelene, why can't you answer me? Is it true?"Hindi ko man lang namalayang nakatulala na lang pala ako sa luhaan niyang mukha.
"Ah A-ace y-you need to rest kakagising mo pa lang, k-kailangan mo munang m-magpahinga." Nauutal na lihis ko sa tanong niya, ayokong sagutin yun. Hindi ngayong hindi pa ako handa, kakagising niya pa lang baka mapano pa siya. Ayokong may mangyari na namang masama sa kaniya nang dahil na naman sa akin.

Mukhang naintindihan niya naman na ayaw ko'ng pagusapan ang bagay na iyon dahil binitiwan niya ang mukha ko at hinalikan muna ang nuo ko bago nahiga.
"Maybe you are right, maybe I need some rest." Patango tango niyang saad.
"I love you Jelene." Ang sabi niya bago ipinikit ang mga mata.
Pinagmasdan ko ang hitsura ni Ace, medyo malayo ito sa hitsura niya nuon. Hanggang balikat na ang buhok niya, masyado siyang namuti kaya mukha siyang maputla. Medyo namayat siya, gayun pa man ay hindi pa rin maipagkakaila ang gwapo niyang hitsura.
Medyo nagbalik na ang kulay sa mga labi niya, dati kasi ay para na siyang patay sa putla niyon. Ngayon ay medyo mamula mula na ito.
Ngayong nagising na siya, ang masasabi ko na lang ay marami pa siyang panahon para ayusin ng hitsura niya. Hindi naman iyon magtatagal panigurado.
Napatingin ako sa cellphone ko nang tumunig iyon. Isang text message galing kay Ryker ang bumungad sa akin.
One new message
From: Mr. Sungit

Reply ko na ginaya ang kanta ni Alessia Cara na Stay medyo iniba ko lang yung lyric, imbis na you ay ginawa kong I....... Maka Ed Sheeran naman kasi yung isang yun.
Matapos kong magreply ay nakangiti akong umupo sa isang mahabang sofa sa loob ng kwarto ni Ace.

I was Summoned as a Hero, but I Became the Demon Lord Instead
"Ah, how I wish I could be summoned to another world." I’d always thought of such a naive wish of escapism would never be granted. However, shit happened and I was somehow summoned. However, in some strange twist of fate, I was no longer needed and disposed of, but that’s okay because I didn’t want to be a summoned hero to begin with. My new beginning may have been abruptly cut short, but even so, that is fine. There is a path I’m much more interested in. Mwuhahaha! Cough cough cough. Though, my sinister laugh may still need some practice. I was Summoned as a Hero , but I Became the Demon Lord Instead Volume 1 Word Count: 108K Including Volume Exclusive Content Available on Amazon Edit: If you don’t get the timeline that’s because the rate at which time flows in different worlds are not equal. In addition, timelines do not neccesarily run parallel to each other, they may cascade such that when summoned to another world you may get summoned from a different reference frame in the timeline of another world’s with respect to your own. Scientific constants can change from one plane to the next. The natural laws that govern each world is not necessarily the same across them all. Some may display similarities, while others may be the complete opposite where rather than aging forwards you actually age in reverse. Newborns could be born elderly and withered, but when they are born into the world, their body regresses towards death in reverse.

Within two separate worlds, Two unique children were born. They weren't calm and always seemed to be in constant pain. One had the fate to be a God-Class being, while the other had a less fortunate start as a Mortal within confines. They saw through each other's eyes, witnessing two lives in constant and thought separate thoughts in their connected single mind. Of different status, of different passage of time, of different mental fortitude, and of different lifestyles, nothing matched for the two as they lived twice at once. In the end, all they wish for is a constant of peace. A dream that was rather difficult, but was better to at least think to. The Mortal who hid his exhaustion and kept away his darkened corruption, and the God who lead a healthy yet dutiful life. This is the Life of Two.______

Cry of the Mer Extras
A collection of Cry of the Mer shorts and extras. This will mostly be a series of scenes from Luna's point of view. Things from her past and scenes that have already happened, but from the different perspectives. It may also include the same for other characters such as a look into the pasts of Katie and Riley as well. Basically all the world building stuff there isnt time for in the main plot. This is mostly what I'll be writing on my phone on my breaks at work to keep readers having some content as I cannot work on Heart of a Mer while there. Most of you know the situation already, so this is my compromise for less main content. I do take requests if there's something specific you want to see.
