Hanging out with friends is the best stress reliever. We can forget the problems even in just a little celebration. Friendships are needed to be treasured because it's rare to find true friends who will accept you for who you are.


We're all gathered in the Open Square near the field. Ang sabi sa rumors may announcement daw ang head mistress kaya kailangang pumunta lahat. Lixe was with me while Heaven, as usual, separated from us. Si Lixe ang nangunguna sa grupo namin since hiwa-hiwalay every class. We're like lining up for a graduation march.

"Good morning students of Vanerhart Academy," masayang bati sa'min ni head mistress Yhue.

"Good morning head mistress," sagot naman ng lahat.

"Since it's weekdays and we don't have classes, I'm going to give you a freedom to do whatever you want outside the Academy. The gate is widely open for all of you so you can have time to bond with your friends. Spend time with everyone and don't think about the class ranking. So now, let us give ourselves a big round of applause." Pumalakpak si head mistress na ikinahiyaw naman ng lahat.

I think this is gonna be exciting!

"You heard it Nia? It's bonding time!" sigaw ni Lixe at mahigpit akong niyakap.

Wala akong nagawa kundi tumango na lang at ngumiti sa sinabi niya. I'm also happy for this freedom that we got. At last, makakalabas na rin ako sa Academy.

"Remember to come back before 8:00 in the evening for the curfew. You also need to rest after this day and will continue your freedom tomorrow. That's all for today, have a nice day ahead."

Pagkatapos 'yon sabihin ng head mistress ay mabilis na nawala sa Open Square ang lahat. Halos ako na nga lang ang natira kung hindi pa ako naalala ni Lixe. Kahit na si Heaven ay lumapit din sa pwesto namin.

"I thought you guys were going to left me behind. Naalala niyo pa pala ako." Napailing na lang ako ng hilahin ako nilang dalawa sa magkabilang braso.

"Pikit ka na lang saglit, Niane. We're going to use our vampire speed. It will be quick," sambit pa ni Heaven.

I didn't react when they really pulled me using their strength. Napasapo na lang ako sa noo ko nang makitang nasa loob na kami ng dorm. I'm a little bit used to it so I don't feel any sickness.

"What am I going to wear? Kayo ba, anong susuotin niyo?" I asked them, confused about this two blazers.

Both of them are my favorite that's why I'm having a hard time on what am I going to wear!

"Simple lang naman ang susuotin ko. That gray blazer suits on you, Niane," Heaven suggested that's why I tried to size it on myself.

"No. That pink blazer makes you more attractive, Nia." Lixe was so busy fixing her hair.

Ugh. Ano ba talaga?

Hinayaan ko na lang silang mag-away do'n tungkol sa kung anong mas bagay sa'kin. Hinalughog ko ang buong walk-in-closet ko dahil kailangan magmukha akong presentable paglabas namin. Bigla kong napansin ang dalawang paper bag sa kama kaya kumunot ang noo ko.

Wala naman 'to kanina, ah?

Tiningnan ko ang balcony ko at sarado naman kaya imposibleng may nakapasok. Binitbit ko na lang ang dalawa at lumabas ng kwarto ko para ipakita sa kanila.

"Guys, kayo ba ang nagbigay sa'kin nito?"

Pareho naman silang nagkatinginan at umiling. Hindi na ako nagsalita at pumasok na lang ulit sa kwarto ko para tingnan ang laman. The first paper bag is a jumpsuit with a sleeveless on top and pants on the lower part. May kasama ring purple blazer na terno nito. It has a sticky note attached to the paper bag.
