"OH MY—holysht!" I shrieked.
WTH?! Is that the way how we made a potion? It's splashing everywhere! Lumayo ako sa malaking palayok—well, I don't know what is that thing but they said it's a cauldron—dahil baka matalsikan na naman ako.
"Ako na nga lang ang magmi-mix diyan. Maganda nga, ang arte naman," Vianna said as she snatched the big laddle on my hand and started stirring the mixed ingredients for the potion. Siya si Miss Abella na violet ang lipstick.
"Hmp! I didn't even know why it keeps on splashing. It might explode later!" Hindi niya ako pinansin kaya inilagay ko nalang ang ibang ingredients para sa 'healing potion' na 'to. We're instructed to make a healing potion and we can't even go to our respective dorms if hindi pa natapos ang ginagawa namin.
And to sum it all, there's still no one finished this task. So I think, we all suck at this.
Vianna, my partner, is a witch; literally. So, sanay na siyang gumawa ng potions. But she said, hindi pa raw siya nakagagawa ng ganito. Her attitude suits on her! Ang maldita, e. Hindi naman bagay sa kaniya ang lipstick niya.
She stopped mixing the potion and handed me the big laddle. Kinuha ko ito at ako na naman ang nagmi-mix. Oh well, mukhang nasasanay na ako. 2 hours na rin kaming nandito at pangatlo na namin itong attempt. Nakangangawit sa braso at kamay. It's so tiring but enjoyable as well.
"Okay, so let's try to slice our hand again." I suggested. I already have two wounds in my hand. This is my first time wounded by a knife. Yes, we used knife to wound ourselves.
Tumango siya at kapagkuwa'y hiniwa niya ang kaniyang kamay kaya ako na agad ang sumunod. Sabay naming inilagay ang potion sa mga sugat namin.
Unti-unting nanlaki ang mga mata ko sa nasaksihan. "OMG! We did it!" I jumped and jumped in my place and a triumphant smile was plastered on my face.
"Madame! We already did it!" Vianna called the professor happily. Lumabas na kami sa room kung saan ginagawa ang mga potions. As for now, kami palang ang nakacomplete ng 'Healing Potion Task'.
"Hey, Maureen, pasensya ka na kanina sa mga pinagsasabi ko, ha? Frustrated lang kasi ako dahil nga isa akong Witch, so dapat magaling kaming gumawa ng mga ganoong bagay," she apologetically said, and as I observed, it's sincere naman kaya hindi na ako nag-inarte pa.
I genuinely smiled. "Don't worry, I don't hold grudges..." I almost say something about her lips. Good thing I stopped myself.
Her face lits up. "Talaga?" I nod. "Sorry talaga, a!
"Hmm... thank you for this day!" I didn't let her answer dahil nagsimula na akong tumakbo.
SINCE I need a plan to pick on what should I wear tonight, pumasok na ako sa dorm at kinuha ang solarphone na nasa tapat lang ng bintana. Pumapasok kasi ang sinag ng araw roon kaya nakakapagcharge ako. I opened my notes and scan the OOTD section. Nang makakita ng magandang susuotin, pumunta agad ako sa walk-in-closet. Kinuha ko ang isang itim na shirt at maong ripped shorts.
It's just simple dahil sa peryahan lang naman ang punta. 4:45 PM pa lang naman so mamaya nalang ako maliligo. I decided to read the paper that the HM Kashmir gives me. Kinuha ko ito sa study table na nasa gilid dahil doon ko naman ito inilagay. Dumapa ako sa kama at nagsimula nang magbasa.
