Jay-Jay POV:
As soon as Keifer left, I told Percy and Aries to sit down.
Then I told Aries to wait by the gate 🚪.
He asked why, but I told him I’d explain later.
Though he didn’t look entirely convinced, he did what he was told.
Turning to Percy, I told him straight out to stop chasing Freya because she didn’t deserve him.🥺 He looked confused😕 and frustrated, but I pressed on: “Freya will never be with you, no matter how hard you try.
You’re just hurting yourself, Percy.🥺”
He nodded slowly, deep down knowing it was the truth.
He started crying 😭🤧while trying to hide it, so I wrapped him in a hug 🫂until he calmed down and agreed to move on.
“Why don’t you like Yuri?”🧐 I asked him.
Percy tried to brush it off and started to leave, but I stopped him, insisting I needed to know because of something I’d discovered.
Percy paused, thinking for a moment before speaking.
“Jay, it’s because of that car accident we had.
Keifer was knocked unconscious first, so he doesn’t know anything.”
He paused .
His eyes were red with anger he continued😠,” But…
But Yuri knows everything.
When we were hanging off the cliff, it wasn’t Aries’s fault at all .
Aries lost control of the car and went unconscious, but we were all safe.we were all safe ,until Yuri jumped out of the car and pushed the unconscious Keifer to the other side.
When Yuri jumped, the car’s weight shifted.
Aries and I were stuck inside, and the slightest movement would have sent us over the edge.😡”
Percy continued, his voice trembling slightly.
“When Aries woke up, he tried to save me more than himself🥺.He never wanted to leave me behind .
He was wanted to save me.
But It was me ,who pushed Aries out of the vehicle, and the car plunged off the cliff.
Yuri knows all of this.
He knew it all .
He knew all from the very start .It was his fault more than Aries’s, yet he kept quiet and blamed Aries for everything😡.
He ruined his friendship with keifer.He manipulated every one to isolate aries .On top of that, he used Freya’s body and threw her away,like she didn’t even matter at all.How the hell could he do that?🤬”
Percy paused and looked at me.🤨 “Tell me jay!
Please tell me What did you find out about Yuri?”
“I’ll tell you,” I replied, “but promise me first that you’ll let me tell Aries the truth about the accident.”
He agreed, so I called Aries inside.
I revealed the whole truth about what really happened four years ago.
Aries looked at Percy, who nodded in confirmation.
Then I shared what I had uncovered: Yuri had a list .
A list with Keifer’s name on it.🥺
Both of them were already fuming, but when I mentioned it was a hit list, they completely lost their composure🤯 and stormed toward the stairs.
I managed to pull Aries back, but Percy wouldn’t listen and kept marching downstairs.
Aries and I chased after him just as the review class ended and everyone was filing into the hall.
Before Percy could shout anything out, Aries and I clamped our hands over his mouth.
Desperate to stop him, I pulled my hands back and yelled at the top of my lungs: “You are the most handsome kuya in the whole world!🥰”
Everyone in the hall froze in complete shock😲.
Percy’s rage instantly vanished, replaced by sheer pride😎.
Aries let go, and we dragged Percy back up to my room.
I told Aries to watch him while I went downstairs to smooth things over.
Downstairs, everyone was staring🫤.
I blurted out that we were just messing around😁 and ran back toward the stairs before anyone could ask questions😅.
But halfway up, I saw Percy fuming again, with Aries struggling to hold him back.😮💨
I shouted up at him, “Handsome kuya, please stop, I beg you🙏🏻!”
Once again, Percy preened with pride and stopped.
Aries dragged him back into the room, and I dashed inside behind them and locked the door.
Keifer POV:
As soon as our review session ended, we walked out into the main hall and saw Percy storming toward us in a total rage, looking like he wanted to kill someone.
Aries and Jay were running right behind him, looking utterly panicked.
Before Percy could say a word, Jay and Aries clamped their hands over his mouth, and Jay suddenly shouted that he was the “most handsome kuya.” All of us stood there, completely stunned 😯.
They quickly hauled Percy back upstairs.
Ci-N (completely shocked and angry): “Did Jay just call that uncircumcised brat the most handsome kuya?!”
Before we could figure out what was happening, Jay came back down, claimed they were just messing around, and sprinted back up.
But halfway up the stairs, Percy burst out of the room again, fuming.
Aries was struggling to restrain him when Jay shouted again, begging her “world’s most handsome kuya” to stop.
Percy instantly looked proud of himself, and Aries hauled him back into the room while Jay locked the door behind them.
Suddenly, the door flew open a third time—but this time, it was Aries who was fuming mad!
Jay and Percy were chasing him down, clamping their hands over his mouth before he could speak.
Jay shouted that Aries was her “most favorite kuya,” which instantly distracted him long enough for them to drag him back inside.
None of us had any idea what kind of madness was going on.
Right then, Kuya Angelo arrived and asked why we were all staring.
When we told him what happened, he couldn’t believe it.
Suddenly, Jay’s bedroom door burst open yet again—this time with Jay fuming in anger while Aries and Percy chased her to stop her!
As she opened her mouth to speak, they covered her face, but Angelo barked out, “What is happening here?!”
All three of them froze 😦and slowly pulled their hands away.
They turned around to retreat back into the room, but Angelo stopped them, demanding to know what they’d done.
They all shook their heads no in unison, and Jay suddenly got a sudden case of hiccups.
Noticing her fear, Jay secretly signaled Percy and Aries behind her back😰.
They slipped back into the room and locked the door while Jay stayed behind, desperately trying to distract Kuya Angelo.
Furious, Angelo unlocked the door and stormed inside, searching every corner of the room, but found nothing suspicious.
After issuing a stern warning, he finally left, leaving all three of them to sigh in collective relief.
Jay-Jay POV:
Once Percy finally calmed down, Aries got furious at me for calling Percy my “handsome kuya.”😮💨 He stormed out toward the stairs, forcing Percy and me to chase after him.
Just as he was about to blow our secret, we covered his mouth and I shouted that he was my “favorite kuya,” which immediately pacified him so we could haul him back inside.
”I’m the favorite kuya😎😏!” Aries declared proudly as we dragged him back into the room and slammed the door shut.
But as the adrenaline began to wear off, the silence inside the room turned suffocating.
Percy was still pacing like a caged animal, his eyes dark with residual fury.
I leaned back against the locked door, clutching my chest as my heart hammered against my ribs.
Keifer was downstairs oblivious, Angelo was roaming the halls, and the truth about Yuri, the car crash, and the hit list was hanging in the air like a loaded gun.
I looked at my brothers, knowing the real storm was only just beginning.😮💨
