*The Past-current storyline*
*GENEVERE'S POV*
"Ang aga aga magkasalubong yang kilay mo" sita ng kung sino sa dalawang kasama ko, di din ako sure kung sino
"It just hit me that I freakin' have to do the stupid demo all because of a stupid asshole" inis na sagot ko ಥ_ಥ
"Chillax, ang init agad ng ulo mo, its a beautiful day today" pagpapakalma sakin ni Sierra, nandito kami ngayon sa common area sa room namin, nakaupo kaming lahat sa sofa at nanunuod ng TV
"e panong di ako maiinis e di ko na nga nagawang makinig naparusahan pang magdemo" reklamo ko
"I believe the demo is a flame test" singit ni Alana na ngumunguya ng tsitsirya
"ahh yun lang pala e" sagot ko, at least I'm saved nasa manual naman yun plus my guide naman ako so I at least could distinguish which is which sa flame test sa chemistry lab namin
"Nilalang mo yun ahh" dagdag ni Sierra na nakahilata na
"Advanced kase sa former school ko, nagawa ko na yun before, plus may manual naman saka guide" sagot ko at saka nagtuloy sa kwarto ko para magshower at nag-ayos, dumampot ako ng black leggings at asymmetrical shirt na off shoulder at dumampot ng sneakers
"Hey girls, is it really normal for them to surround them like that at pagkaguluhan?" Curious na tanong ko nang mapansing pinagkakaguluhan yet again yung mga uhh Black Knights? nandito kami ngayon sa may labas ng cafeteria malapit sa dormitories
"I dunno either basta na lang nangyayari yan for some reasons" sagot ni Alana na inayos pa ang salamin niya, nakashorts lang ito at loose shirt at sneakers
"Weird" sagot ko naman
Maswerteng may biglaang meeting yung teacher namin sa laboratory kaya ligtas ako from the stupid demo but not from that stupid stare from that stupid man na for some reason ang init din ng ulo—not sure if its with me though, nandito ako ngayon sa chemistry lab room namin ngayon
"What?" inis nang tanong ko
"You're not--uhh nevermind" sabi nito na ipinagtaka ko, weird na oo he's emitting this stupid cold and scary aura even his stares—gives you a chill on the spine yet this man right now—he's making me feel like there's an angel beneath a demon o baka gut feeling ko lang yun, I could be wrong ಠ_ಠ
"If you're thinking that I'm gonna back away just because of the stupid aura you're emitting and the stupid sensation that your stupid stares causes, ibahin mo ako Mr. Dervis" wala sa sariling sagot ko, like always kase magkatabi nanaman kami
"You're honest—feisty" sabi lang nito na dahilan para tignan ko ang gwapo nitong mukha and I saw a small smile on his face na sa di malamang dahilan dissipated my irritation "and observant" dagdag pa nito na nakapagpalingon sakin "I like it" bulong nito na ako lang ang nakadinig
"Hindi naman kase ako nasanay na magsinungaling at itago ang nasa isip ko especially if it concerns the person I'm being talked to" sagot ko lang, nakatanggap ako ng titig mula dito, I felt that intense stare—those grayish blue orbs, sinking into my soul
"my name is Zephyr" sabi niya na pinagtaka ko, I got confused,my brain is sleeping its not working sorry..I heard him chuckle, and I found this sexy for some reason pero bakit????? (;´༎ຶД༎ຶ`) "people call me emperor or king, I don't really know why and how" wait is he--is he trying to be friends with me? BUTWHY.??? I mean I dont mind it at all pero bakit akooooooooo ಥ_ಥ
"Uhh--naguguluhan lang ako but are you trying to be friends?? I mean sure why not I don't really mind pero sa dami ng pwede mong kaibiganin bakit ako?" tumigil ako para tignan siya pero nakatitig lang ito sakin kaya tinuloy ko na yung sinasabi ko "kita mo napapaenglish na din tuloy ako dahil sayo" gulat at nagpapanic na tanong ko dito, he chuckled again
"Di ba halata?" Sagot niya, nanlaki mata ko marunong naman pala siya magtagalog eh pinahirapan pa niya ko sa puro english niya ಥ_ಥ
"Its just weird" sagot ko sa kanya
"what is?" sagot niya
"this" sagot ko, nakita kong tinignan niya ako—confused "look I'm not blind, tignan mo buong room, hindi din ako manhid para hindi mapansin na nakatingin ang lahat sa atin, I'm a newbie kaya siguro curious din sila, ayaw ko ng gulo so please" nakita kong nagsalubong ang kilay nito pero bao ko pa man magawang tapusin ang sinasabi ko nagsalita ito
"where did you get that??!" tanong niya sabay turo sa hita ko, naka leggings ako pero may pagka-See through kase sa side kaya kita yung malaking pasang nakuha ko nung isang araw nung pinalibutan ako "at anong gulo ang sinasabi mo?" dagdag pa nito looking irritated
"itong pasa ba? wala to" sabi ko na lang, baka lalong lumaki pa ang gulo kapag nalaman niya, nananahimik na ako at payapa na ako ng ilang araw ayos na ako doon
"at kung meron man, sa akin na lang yun, its my problem to resolve ayoko namang sabihin nila na kung kani kanino ako lumalapit, I don't want to burden anyone else" dagdag ko pa
"not if its related to me" tinignan niya ako at nagpatuloy "and just so you know hindi ako kung sino lang—I'm sure you're already aware, you look smart—and I wanted to be friends" dagdag pa nito
"kahit pa, promise me wala kang gagawin, gusto ko ng payapang buhay please" pagmamakaawa ko pa dito, for sure kase kapag may ginawa siya mawawala ang peace na tinatamasa ko ngayon
"alright, lets end it there then" sabi niya na may pagtaas pa ng kamay—a sign of surrender
-*-
"Ohh bat para kang tanga jan Genevere?" salubong sakin ni Sierra, nandito kami sa may balcony ngayon
"hindi lang ako makapaniwala, anyway, ayos lang ba if I explore the school? I mean wala akong masisirang school rules?" Tanong ko nang maalalang di ko pa nga pala naiikot ang buong campus
"Of course" sagot ni Alana in a british accent na ikinatawa namin ni sierra
"Maraming nageexist na beyond the school admin's knowledge, parang black market kung tawagin" kwento ni Alana "but you should be fine, wala namang nagbabawal na magexplore unless you're doing something illegal doon ka kabahan at matakot, otherwise feel free to do so" dagdag nito with a wink ^_−☆
"Hmm, founded by the students?" Tanong ko
"Yes, alam mong dormitory school to diba? At may curfew, imbis na maghabol sa oras someone from the student body thought, why not bring the night life inside naturingang mayayaman rin lang naman ang mga students and some other backdrop activities" paliwanag pa ni sierra
"You're telling me these...because?" Takang tanong ko although I get her point
"We just want you to be careful, nagiging sikat ka pa naman" sagot ni Alana
"I'll keep that in mind" sagot ko, and then went off on my little adventure, trying to find what the girls were saying
Amidst the woodlands may napansin akong kakaiba yet I chose to ignore it nung una and went on my search...
once I realized na wala namang patutunguhan ang paglalakad ko since all I could really see are tall trees, I decided to go back and check what that tunnel like thing is for sa kalagitnaan nung gubat na to
Aalis na sana ako kaso may napansin akong nakasulat dun sa may entrance nung tunnel 'he who dare pass the dark shall never resurface again' yan yung nakasulat, at kung hindi ko yan napansin hindi ko na talaga sana pagkakainteresan pa yung tunnel na yan
when Genevere's curiosity strikes, she'll search for its roots kaya naman humakbang ako sa harang at nagtuloy buti na lang dala ko yung glow band ko kaya naman nakakita ako sa dilim
Mahabang passage way ang nilakad ko bago ako nakarinig ng ilang mga kaluskos at mga ingay, from there I knew that encryption was for a purpose, and then suddenly I felt a presence, and its not far, it seems like its following me, baka nga kanina pa e di ko lang napansin agad
Sa paglalakad ko that presence felt closer then suddenly someone tried to grab me from behind buf I was quicker, I was able to out balance that person and then to my surprise the room suddenly lited from who-knows-what
"Welcome to the Black Wrap" sabi ng kung sino, di ko kilala
