CHAPTER 16

　　Zenith's Point Of View

　　"She won't know that thing. As long as she's here and under my management, our plan is safe." I was stunned by what I heard.

　　I quickly hid on the side of the wall and peeked at who it was. Genesis, tch! My suspicion of her innocence still seems wrong.

　　"No need to worry. Yeah, she's fine, so far so good because she hasn't been killed yet. Yap, ah Zenith? Don't mind her… I'll take care of her."

　　I was shocked when she mentioned my name, what did she mean? And who is she talking to on the phone? Aish! Shame on you, Genesis. I am not blind to be compliant with your policy here!

　　I didn't even listen to their conversation on the phone and I continued to walk sluggishly.

　　You will take care of me ah?

　　We'll see about that.

　　"Zenith!" I saw Reminisce call but I ignored it and continued, "I just wanted to apologize for what Venom said to you just now—"

　　What she was about to say was cut short when she noticed I was not in the mood and thinking.

　　"Stay away from me first… I-I can't control myself when I kill you…" I coldly reminded her.

　　"Z-Zenith… What happened?" aware of her concern.

　　Suddenly my head hurt and I touched it. Argh! It hurts…

　　"Ughhh…" I said weakly as I continued to shake my head.

　　"Are you all right, Zenith? What's wrong with you? Is something wrong?" its question that made my head hurt a little more.

　　Argh! I can still feel her approaching and holding me. Please do not come near.

　　"... hurt her.." I heard a whisper but I didn't know who it was or where it came from.

　　My vision changed and I looked sharply at Reminisce's hand holding mine.

　　"I told you to stay away!" I shouted to the surprise of everyone here.

　　Reminisce suddenly disappeared.

　　"Oh my gosh!" someone screamed.

　　I was shocked to see her clinging to the wall. What happened?

　　Did she spit out?

　　A-Am I the one who did it to her then?

　　"Hmm… Arghh," I heard her growl in pain, she was buried in the wall and it looked like I was the one who did it then.

　　"Reminisce!" I heard loud calls from her friends and she ran fast.

　　My head hurts again, shit! Argh!

　　"Oh, God! What happened to you, Reminisce?!" full of concern asked Venom.

　　I just closed my eyes because my head hurt so much that it was as if it was being cut.

　　"Please... Zenith, help her," I heard her promise with difficulty.

　　Argh! What's going on?!

　　"You! What did you do to Reminisce?! What did you do to my friend!" Venom scolded me.

　　I tried to open my eyes and saw that it was going to hit me but her companions stopped her.

　　"Calm down, Venom. We don't know what really happened yet..." it tries to calmed Venom.

　　"Calm down?! Can't you see Reminisce? Huh! She's hurt! And that woman must be involved again!" she told me.

　　Until now my head still hurts… Arghh!

　　"I don't know .. I told her to stay away from me, but…"

　　"But what?! You kicked her out of singing?! Is that so?! Wow! If you're mad at me because last night? Don't touch Reminisce! She didn't do anything bad to you!"

　　"Achery… please call them together with Uno," whispered one of their companions.

　　"I'll follow, Widow," said one and then left.

　　Five of us were left here and until now, Reminisce is still unconscious.

　　"What happened, Zenith? Are you really the one who did this to Reminisce?" the other asked.

　　"I warned her to stay away…" was my only answer.

　　"Warned? Warned your call there huh?! You'll pay for it!" Venom's angry language.

　　"That's enough, Venom. You can't sleep because you're angry so can you? Calm down first because they're coming together with Uno," insisted the Widow.

　　"Widow has a point, Venom. I'm sure the queen already knows this so don't let your anger get the better of you. Reminisce will be okay too," said the other.

　　"I'll just calm down when Reminisce is okay, Jewel. And I'll just calm down when that woman isn't here anymore!" at the same time she scolded me for causing my headache again.

　　"What's going on here?" suddenly everyone was stunned at the arrival of the queen.

　　She looked at Venom and me with a question on her face.

　　"Queen Genesis…" they all salute her.

　　"What happened? And why is Ms. Ortenta unconscious?" she asked once looking at me. Tskk.

　　"Queen, we don't know. We just found Reminisce hanging on the wall," the Widow replied to her.

　　"And what are you doing here, Ms. Aspen?" she asked.

　　I did not answer.

　　"She did this to Reminisce, Queen! She's the one why Reminisce got hurt!" Venom said so she looked at me in surprise.

　　"Is it true, Ms. Aspen?" she asked me.

　　Great! Even I tell them the truth, no one will believe me. I'm still really the suspect.

　　I did not answer her.

　　"Queen, only Reminisce can tell everything that happened," Jewel said.

　　"If that's the case. Okay then, let's fix everything on my floor."

　　"Hey, what happened? Where's Reminisce?" they arrived with Vior, he looked at me in shock and then turned to his unconscious friend.

　　They approached it.

　　"What happened to her?" he asked.

　　"She's hurt. She was unconscious when we arrived…" replied the Widow.

　　"Reme? Heal her…" Vior turned to the side, he just nodded.

　　"The three officers are also coming, Queen," said Archery.

　　"Is that so? It's good then. I'll just wait for all of you on the 245th floor," Genesis said then left.

　　245th floor?

　　"You'll gonna pay for this…" Venom promised firmly.

　　Four Eyes have arrived.

　　"What did I hear huh? Zenith?" Four Eyes turned to me.

　　I sighed.

　　"Hayss, I'm going." then left that place and left them.

　　Four Eyes followed me, as always. "Zenith, what happened? Why was Reminisce like that? Were you the one who did it then?" she asked in succession.

　　"I'm not in the mood, Palm. Just let me go…"

　　I stared at her and then left. I need to ventilate.

　　It's a headache.
