Chapter 14
Be Ready
[ Ava Maureen ]

I REALLY believe the quote, "Expect the unexpected." Iyan din ang palaging sinasabi sa 'kin ni Mama. I never expected my life would turn into this. From an excellent student, international model at my young age, business heiress and an adopted child turns into a child who don't know her real identity and keeps seeing unexplainable things.

My world just turned into upside down, I can say.

Kung noon ay pakiramdam ko ako ang nakalalamang sa lahat, ngayon naman ay ako ang pinakababa at pinaka-walang alam. And even I, myself, don't know who really I am. I thought all the books I read before was all made by their imagination. But I was wrong because all of it was true. They just have different plot. Powers, magic school, witches and other unexplainable things were true at nakakikita pa ako mismo nito.

I'm only reading fantasy books thrice before dahil nako-kornihan ako. But now, I'm living in a corny world. Ha, how ironic. Minsan iniisip ko na baka isa sa mga author ng fantasy books ay nakapunta na sa lugar na kanilang ginawa na nasa libro. Is that even possible?

Last night, I cried because I missed my old life. No real friends means no hindrance, tasting the popularity, can kiss any attractive guys, and liking someone who can't like you back. Pero narealize ko na mas gusto ko na itong buhay ko ngayon. I may be still don't know my magic and only my ability but I now have a new friends and I don't know if they're really true or not. Bonus nalang na may bago na akong gusto rito. Keeping all those memories of my family can be my inspiration for all of the problems I'll have.

"Hoy! Ano na namang iniisip mo at kanina ka pa tulala riyan?"

Maituturing ko ng pinakamatalik na naging kaibigan ko ay si James na siya rin ang unang nakakita sa 'kin. Next to him was Jane who trained me and I can say that my past life was closest to compare with hers. Lastly, Zoe. I don't know but I can feel a connection with her but I can't distinguish on what is it. Sofia rarely talks to me and I think I know the reason. Pero mabait naman siya. Jack, on the other hand, I can say that ako lang talaga ang gumagawa ng paraan para mapalapit kami!

Ugh! That guy! He said I'm not her type! Sino naman ang type niya kuno? He said he wants a girl that is simple at walang kaarte-arte sa katawan, intimidating (intimidating naman ako, a?), beautiful and gorgeous (ako yan, e), intelligent (lalo na ito), at higit sa lahat ay malakas at konektado sa apoy ang kapangyarihan. Don't tell me, he'll marry his twin?! That's incest, Ava! Ugh! Basta if may magustuhan na siya, I'll make sure that that girl will suffer so much from me before she could even touch my Jack!

"Magic world to Maureen!? Nakikinig ka ba?! Your face seemed like to kill someone! Ano ba ang iniisip mo riyan?" sigaw na naman niya.

Sinamaan ko siya ng tingin at patuloy nalang sa paglalakad patungo sa isang room na sinasabi niya na naka-locate sa freshmen's dormitory. He said that the one who can read minds is just a freshman! Paano ako magtatanong kung paano ko ba it-train ang kakayahang ito? It's just useless dahil sabi pa ni James na noong isang araw pa lang daw ito nadiskubre.

Tinanong ko pa siya kung bakit namumutla ito, sinabi niya na kapatid daw ito no'ng nasa Rank 5 SUPREMUS. Iyong boyfriend ni Jane Hilary. Takot siya ro'n? Mas nangunguna pa nga siya kaysa ro'n, e.

Huminto kami sa isang kulay abo na pintuan at kumatok doon si James. Sumilip doon ang isang bata na sa tantya ko ay nasa 12 to 13 years old. Unlike her brother na kulay blonde ang buhok, she has an ash gray shoulder length hair and tan skin. A pouty lips and a cute nose. Gray is the color of her eyes while her brother was hazel. She also have a cute mole on the side of her pouty lips.
