KASDEYA ARGYROS' Point of View
"Are you done?" Naiiritang tanong ni Theon habang nakasandal sa pader ng kwarto ko.
I roll my eyes for the nth time, dahil pang-ilang beses na niyang tinanong yun. "Hindi ka ba marunong maghintay? Kanina ka pa tanong nang tanong d'yan eh kita mo namang hindi pa ako tapos magpalit."
"Then hurry up," He grumbles. "We don't have enough time for your 'getting ready' ritual. We're not going to a fashion show."
Sinamaan ko siya ng tingin. "Shut it, Alastor."
Dahil nagmamadali ang kasama ko, wala akong choice kundi kunin ang damit na una kong nakita.
All black ang sinuot kong damit para hindi ako mabilis makita sa dilim. Thank Tartarus I end up taking the comfortable clothes in my closet. Nagpunta ako ng banyo para magbihis bago balikan si Theon.
Pagkalabas ko ng banyo, binato niya ang isang tela papunta sa'kin. I close my eyes before it hits me right in the face.
Sinalo ko ito bago pa bumagsak sa sahig. Nang magmulat ako ng mga mata, agad ko siyang sinimangutan. Is it really necessary to throw something in my face? Ano bang problema ng lalaking 'to?
He scoffs at me with a smirk. "Wear that before we go."
Tiningnan ko ang binato niya sa akin. It's a black cloak, the same one he's wearing. I flip it around my hands before stopping to stare at the gold pin that holds both flaps together. Kamukha rin ito ng suot niya sa kaniyang dibdib.
"You're giving that back once we're done."
Napairap ulit ako. "Relax, wala akong paki sa cloak mo." Kahit isaksak mo pa 'to sa dibdib mo.
Lumabas kami ng dorm pagkatapos kong isuot ang binigay niya sa'kin. We're quiet enough to not wake my dorm mates, or anyone in the dorm.
Pagkalabas namin sa dormitories ay mabilis namin tinakbo ang distansya patungo sa rendezvous point na sinabi ni Theon kanina. My eyesight adjusts against the darkness, kaya nakita ko ang limang tao na nakatayo sa pwesto namin kanina.
Sinundan ko si Theon nang bilisan niya ang kaniyang takbo. We hide beneath the ocean of shadows. I think he has a habit of being hidden kahit na walang nakatingin. I can't blame him because I do the same too. Nasanay na akong magtago sa kadiliman.
"Young master." Bati ng isang babae na naka-cloak rin. There's five people waiting for us, lahat sila ay nakasuot rin ng cloak. They have their hoods down kaya kita ko ang kanilang mga mukha.
None of them are familiar.
"Who are these people?" I can't help but ask while surveying them one by one. Tatlong lalaki, dalawang babae. Hindi ko pa sila nakikita sa Acropolis, and I've been here for weeks.
Nakatayo sa tabi ni Theon ang lalaking nakausap niya kanina, the one with black hair and white scar. I stand on his other side, while the rest of the cloaked strangers are in front of us. Tiningnan ako nung babaeng bumati kay Theon.
Her hair is light brown in color, gathered together to form a twisted bun. Pinaghalong purple at gold ang kaniyang mga mata na mukhang ombre sa kalayuan. The one thing that sets her apart from everyone else, is the faded tattoo of a golden lyre on her throat.
Bahagya siyang napangiti habang nakatingin sa akin. She looks like she's the same age as me too but her hairstyle makes her look more... mature.
Nalipat kay Theon ang kaniyang mga mata. "I see, may iba ka na palang kasama, Young Master?"
The other girl giggles. Buhok niya agad ang una kong napansin. You mostly see wavy dirty blonde hair, but underneath it looks like a unicorn's hair.
I'm not kidding. The under layer of her hair is multicolored, mimicking the hues of a rainbow. Naalala ko tuloy ang prism dahil sa buhok niya.
