"You're here again."
Napatingala ako sa itaas ng bookshelf kung saan lumabas si Freita. Nakita ko ang paglabas ng ngiti mula sa labi niya at lumipad palapit sa'kin.
"I'm sorry, am I bothering this place?" I asked.
Umiling-iling ito. "You're lucky, Anasthasius is busy being the 'Crown Prince' of the fox tribe. He wanted to see you-"
"Did you tell him about what we're talking about?" I cut her off not minding what she's about to say.
"No no, my dear. I'm good at hiding secrets."
Napahinga ako ng maluwag. I don't want any of them to know my secret, not even Demetrius.
"So, why are you here again?"
Napatikhim ako at seryosong tinignan ito. "I want to go that tree, I want to enter the land of fairies."
Napahinto siya at naglaho ang ngiti mula sakanyang labi.
"Why?"
I was dumbfounded when I saw how dim her expression is.
"because I want to stop it?"
Pinagkrus niya ang kanyang mga braso. "No you can't. You just have to accept your destiny and wait for your reincarnation to stop."
Nalilitong napatingin ako sakanya. Why? Why did she changed her mind?
I was about to speak again when the door suddenly opened and I saw Demetrius entering with a serious look on his face.
Dumapo ang tingin niya kay Freita at kita ko ang pagtaas ng kilay niya.
"What the? Why is he here?"
Mabilis itong lumapit sa'kin at hinila ako palapit sakanya. "Why are you talking to that insect?"
"Did you just call me insect? Me? One of the seven guardians of HunaEryn? How dare a mere wolf call me an insect?!"
Hindi ko alam kung matatawa ba ako o mag-aaalala. Demetrius wiped my hands as if it was being held by a dirty thing at pagkatapos ay tinapon niya sa kung saan ang ginamit niyang panyo.
"Aaaaaaaaah! Did you just see that?! You're so mean! Mean! Meaaaaaan!" nagtitiling naglaho si Freita at kita ko ang pagngisi ni Demetrius.
Napakasama ng ugali neto.
"Why are you here?" He asked.
Inikot niya ang paningin sa buong paligid at napahinga ng maluwag saka hinila ako palabas.
I was about to stop him when I realized that Freita disappeared and it might be hard to call for her again lalo pa't andito si Demetrius.
"I was just talking—"
"Why are you with her in the first place?"
Natikom ko ang bibig ko dahil sa tanong niya. Anhilig talagang sumingit ng lalakeng to, sarap laplapin.
"Don't talk to her again," he said.
Napahinto ako sa pagsunod sakanya kaya napahinto din ito.
"Why? Is there any reason for me to stop talking with her? Freita is a nice fairy."
"She's not, don't believe recklessly."
