Chapter 27: The Walk
|AZAMI|
Someone's fingers snapped me back to reality.
"Diyan ka na lang ba habang buhay?" the assistant asked me, frustrated.
"Oh, sorry..."
I realized I had been zoning out, lost in deep thoughts. Everything Silver had said cannot easily put me back at ease. Also, I am still puzzled by how I easily managed to pull Xyruz along with me at that time, he was shocked in disbelief and ran. Then It felt like... I could actually wield my sword against him, because I have the capacity to hurt him.
After Meagan Blake's oh so great birthday performance. I quickly joined the other girls backstage, waiting for our turn on the runway-which I referred to as forced modeling rather! Malasarkastikong napapatingin ako sa ibabaw sa mga nakikita.
"Everyone! Prepare..."
I took one last look at myself in the large mirror backstage. Here we go-preparing to face the eyes of these detestable creatures!
"Oh look here... Mafias, gamblers, con artists. Meagan's favorite guests..." I mumbled slow and sarcastically scoffed. "Splendid, I even saw corrupt politicians." napailing-iling ako. Disgust was written all over my face while observing.
"Bring me that thing, I do not want to ruin my own big surprise," a servant nodded as soon as Meagan got off the stage. She just whispered it but I heard it clear.
What surprise?
Could it be, a game?
Nanlaki ang mga mata ko.
Revlis... It's too early for him to play! They wouldn't even give me a single day to stay calm?
Maraming gumugulo sa isipan ko habang naglakakad na kami, wala na akong pake sa mga nanonood at tanging katanungan at kuryusidad na ang bumabalot sa utak ko, wala na rin akong marinig kundi and boses sa isipan ko hangga't sa nalaman ko na lang na nasa ika-limang set ng suot na pala kami, ito ba naman ay ang mga mamahaling brand at mga famous na disenyong gawa ni Meagan.
Ginawa kaming show off sa sariling clothing brand niya sa kanyang birthday celebration, haha ang galing...
Napalingon ako kay miss Cassidy habang pabalik na ng backstage. Suspiciously I saw her taking out a small box, giving it to a servant utterly whispering.
Curious as I am... I observed their every movement... And I noticed that servant was with us the whole time, she was assisting Meagan before and after her performances.
Iyan na kaya ang pinapabigay kay Meagan? Was that the thing she was talking about?
I see,
I didn't hesitate to fake trip and fall myself that had made a huge commotion especially when I fell the four feet stage and fell over the both of them. I nearly broke my ankle, and it hurts dang bad though it was worth the risk as I secretly took what's inside the small box before someone could drag and remove me to that place.
"Nakakahiya ka! Panira ng event! Sana pinaupo ka na lang namin kasabay sa mga nanonood!" pinagalitan ako ng mga assistants at nilock sa isang maliit na kwarto labas ng stadium.
Wala naman akong pake sa pinagsasabi pa nila at tila napakunot lamang ng noo nang binuksan ko kung ano man ang mayroon sa kamay ko ngayon.
A piece of puzzle?
Napaayos ako at napatayo dahil sa tunog na nagmumula sa labas bigla.
Sino na naman ito?
"Who's there?!"
