Chapter 17: His Sin

The morning sun is shining brightly and Elena's smile can be compared to it, she is obviously very happy that Scorch is finally back. Scorch just listen to everything that Elena are telling him even if is gone for almost a month he wants to know what happened to Elena while he is gone.
"Everything is scary while you're not here and I felt lonely too because my friends doesn't wan to talk to me" she said to Scorch and he just sigh, he felt sorry because of the issue with her friends but he knew that it's not Elena's lose it's her friends lose
"But you know Scorch, something is really weird...... No let me rephrase it, someone is really weird" Elena said looking at the ceiling, they are just sitting in the couch in the living room and just talking about the events that happened to them when they didn't see each other but Elena his the part about her dreams and vision while she didn't know that Scorch did the same
"Who is it? " Scorch ask because his curiosity is eating him, he wants to know the things that have happened to her
"The man that saved me, Voltaire..... He just appeared out of nowhere and then he just protect me" Elena look at him and shrugged her before she said that, indicating that she didn't know Voltaire's real intension
"Why didn't you ask him?  You didn't know if he is one of the enemy or not" Scorch said his eyebrows are furrowed while looking at her intently
"That's because he always disappear and the last time I saw him our conversation is not good" she said with a hint of disappointment in her voice while Scorch thinks for awhile, he knows that he have heard that name before but he can't remember when.
"He saved you from what? " he ask, he wants to know more
"He saved me from the carabao head that wants to kill me in the park and the two vines creature in the forest" Elena said
"And what are you doing in the forest? " Scorch ask as he feel a little angry, he wants to treat Elena as a little sister and now that he knew that she is Christine in her past life, he will surely treat her better so she wouldn't feel what Christine have felt before, he will make her happy so that she can't repeat what Christine have done to him and Veena.
"I was just exploring you know and because of the incident in the playground I just want to breath some fresh air but those two vines creatures appeared" she explained as her palm sweat a little maybe because she didn't know how to lie, Scorch just nodded indicating that he understand her situation
"How about you Scorch, why did you suddenly disappeared? "Elena said changing the topic by switching her attention to Scorch, now it is time for Scorch to have sweat in his palm
"The council suddenly summoned me to work on some things and I thought that it will only took a few hours but instead it took almost a month, I'm sorry if I can't protect you because of that" he said lying too, he didn't want Elena to know that she is part of his past when he is still a human because may not believe him, he knows that lying is a sin but what can he do, he didn't want Elena to worry about him. Sometimes lies are not bad depends on the situation, he is telling her white lies but he didn't knew that she is doing the same thing, lies can break someones touch and it can ruin someones life whatever what lie it is but he needs to even if he is an angel, some angels are telling bigger lies to others and his lies are tiny if you compare it to them.
"How about we find the one who hacked your account? " Scorch suggested and Elena sigh
"But even if we found out who is the hacker, my friends trust for me are gone" she sadly said, trust is the one that every relationship needs whether it is a romance relationship, family relationship or friends relationship, once the trust is broke it cannot be fix and put in it's form just like a broken plate even if you put it back together it already have a crack that if you repeat your mistake again it will be bike again and there's a chance that you cannot put it back together, once is forgivable but twice is enough it needs to stop.
"Don't lose hope, you are not the one to blame, it is not your fault it's their mistake that they didn't listen to your explanation, they don't have enough trust on you" Scorch said and rub Elena's back while she just nodded and smile at him
She is truly lucky that she can see Scorch so when she needs a true friend she can talk to him freely unlike before she is just talking to herself that her parents thought that she is crazy, she was about to talk but the telephone rang so she stand up and answer the phone
"Hello? " she said
"Hello sweetie! How are you? "
"Mom in glad you called, I'm fine how about you and dad? How's grandma and grandpa? "
"We're fine and your grandmother is still resting but she is finally out from the hospital last week and your grandfather is very happy about it"
"Really?  But mom when are you guys going home? "
"I'm sorry sweetie but we can't go back there yet, your grandparents still needs some help"
"I understand but make sure to take care and can you say hi to grandpa and grandma for me? "
"Of course I will and oh I already transfer the same amount of money in your bank account just don't starve yourself okay? I love you bye!"
"Thank you mom, I love you too bye! Take care! " Elena said and the call ended
"Hey what's with the sad look? " Scorch said when she sat in the couch
"I just miss my parents and my grandparents" she said and look at him, only to see him smiling
"You will see them soon just wait and be happy that nothing bad happened to them okay? " he sad and Elena nodded
"I'm going to prepare breakfast do you want to eat? " Elena ask as she stand up then walk into the kitchen,  Scorch laugh and followed her
"As if I eat in this world" he said then laugh again that makes Elena shook her head
Looking at someone you love that's with someone else hurts a lot and that's what Veena feels while looking at Scorch and Elena while hiding behind the tree, she can see them through the window that was place in the kitchen, she knew in herself that she shouldn't be affected but she can't help it, they look so happy while she feel lonely or she guess that she just miss Scorch presence.
"You might burn them" a voice behind her said, she turn around and saw a person that walk beside her, a person that she never expected
"Black why are you here? " Veena ask while looking at the man who is leaning at the tree with his hands in his pockets, the man looks like a normal human that nobody will think that he is very different
Black is the youngest male sibling of Diamond, he is the hunter of evil spirits or lost souls on earth, the humans can see him so at daylight he live like a real human and when the night comes he will be the hunter he is, he is important into the underworld because he is one o the demons that connects human to demons by becoming one of them while his eldest sister Diamond is one of the leader in the council, she represents the demon but even if they are a demon they both have a kind heart, Black have a funny personality and a good company while Diamond is gentle and have a soft personality, Veena thinks that she have depts to them because Black is the one who found her while Diamond is the one who gave her a position but for the two siblings it is nothing because they said that they just wanted to help.
"Hello to you too Veena, my sister wants to talk to you" Black said while looking at her with a cold face expression
"Why would Diamond wants to talk to me?" She ask confusedly
"I don't know she just told me to fetch you and tell you that she wants to talk to you, you know her she's too secretive" Black said, Veena just put her poker face on then she disappeared leaving Black behind, Black grunt and roll his eyes
"Why are you always disappearing when we are talking" Black said and disappeared leaving a black smoke behind.
