Chapter 04
Rivendelle Academy
[ Ava Maureen ]

"WHERE ARE we going?" I asked with a hint of annoyance.

"Sa school, syempre. Haler! kanina ka pa ha," that's his answer. Maka-haler parang bakla. That's why I'm annoyed right now. Hindi niya sinasabi sa 'kin ang eksaktong lokasyon. Pero ano nga ba ang alam ko sa lugar na ito?

Nalukot ang mukha ko. "Where is it exactly?"

Napabuntong-hininga siya. "Rivendelle Academy, my school." Finally! "By the way, saan ka kaya na rank mapupunta?" he suddenly asked.

"Huh? Rank? What's that? Is that a ranking for your intelligence and how rich you are?" I asked out of curiosity.  We also have ranking in my previous school. It's about how rich and smart you are and, well, I'm the highest there. I'm the Queen but they prefer to call me Goddess.

"In the intelligence, yes. Pero wapakels 'yang pera mo kung hindi ka naman marunong lumaban. You'll be on the Rank 10 SUPREMUS if you are smart, good in fighting and—" I cut him off.

"I'm good in fighting! All types of martial arts and handling different weapons! My Papa taught me how to do it!" I proudly said and smiled. This is my first time to smile since I got here.

"Really? But there's still one that you must conquer to be at the Rank SUPREMUS. You must be pow—we're here!" Hindi na niya natapos ang kaniyang sinasabi dahil nandito na nga kami.

Top 10 SUPREMUS? Hmm... I want to be on that rank!

My mouth hang open when my eyes laid at the golden gate in my front. Gold intricate design with a mixture of green vines. Kumikinang ang tarangkahan at may nakaukit sa mga letra. Letters were bended and the color was also related from the design of the huge golden gate.

RIVENDELLE ACADEMY

That's the name wielded at the top of the gate. It's literally shining! Hinila na niya ako papasok at nalaglag na naman ang panga ko sa nakita. Everywhere is magical! LITERALLY.

Nanaginip ba ako? Sinampal ko nang malakas ang pisngi ko. "Aw!" It hurts. I'm not really dreaming. Pumasok pa nga ako kanina sa isang portal, e.

I roamed around my sight. There's a galactic fountain on the middle, purple water with a gold glittery surroundings, and a magnificent statues standing above the fountain, floating. Few meters away from the fountain are formed and patterned grasses with lots of flowers—tulips, calla lilies, roses, sunflowers, and some that is unnameable. Sa malayong bahagi ng lugar, may mga gusali na parang sa sinaunang panahon pa pero may iba rin na modern. And some are the same as the buildings of Harvard University.

Everything felt surreal and breathtakingly beautiful. It's so magical! This is the most beautiful, elegant and splendid school I've ever seen. What a wonderful gift I've received today! Best birthday ever!

Hindi pa nga na-a-absorb sa 'kin ang mga nakita ko ay hinila na naman ako ni James. There are no students roaming around. Probably they are in their respective classes. "Would you believe if I'll tell you that it's my day today?" I asked him. Hila-hila parin niya ako habang ako ay panay linga sa paligid.

He turned his gaze on me and his brows met. "Birthday mo ngayon?" I nodded.

"And this is the best birthday gift for me!" I exclaimed enthusiastically.

"So," he trailed off, "birthday mo naman ngayon, pwede ka bang magsalita ng tagalog?"

I shake my head in disapproval and at the same time asks, "Why?"
