"*yawns* It's alright, I can manage. Thank you,"
Naghilamos naman na ako kaya nagising ang diwa ko at natanggal ang antok ko as I wipe my face with a dry towel.
"Young Priestess, your light snacks are ready,"
"Okay,"
I stood up and went to the table where they put my snacks and tea kaya agad naman akong kumain since wala akong kain mula kagabi.
"Young Priestess, your clothes are ready for the cleansing with the High Priest,"
"Okay,"
Antok na antok na sagot ko as they help me to wear the white clothes since I don't have the energy to refuse them kaya naman mabilis lang akong nagpalit at tsaka tumayo at sumunod sa kanila since they didn't fix my hair pero sinuklay lang nila.
"Young Priestess, please get inside. The High Priest is already inside,"
"Okay--what?! Why is he here?"
Napahinto ako sa pagbukas ng kurtina patungo sa malaking banyo kung saan ako maliligo dahil sa sinabi nila na andoon si Matthew.
"Young Priestess, please get inside because the High Priest is waiting for you,"
They said as they pushed me inside when I was still asking them but it was 1 vs 2 so they pushed me inside kaya wala akong nagawa kundi tuluyang nakapasok sa loob. I saw Matthew standing in front of the goddess as he slowly turn around at hindi ko maiwasang masilaw sa kaniyang kagwapuhan at batang mukha kahit na hindi.
"Come here, Avy,"
"Why are you here?"
"I guess, you are not properly listening to me yesterday and to your maids,"
He said as he offers his hand as I accepted it no'ng nakalapit na ako sa kaniya as we approaches the goddess in front of us.
"Avy, prepare yourself to fully receive the blessings from the goddess,"
"Do I have to?"
"Yes,"
"Okay,"
I take a deep breath and relaxed when we both turn around when we heard a loud noise coming from the outside of the bathroom.
"High Priest, please think properly about this!"
I saw a young man who looks like a younger version of the High Priest but in a shorter spiky haircut since the High Priest has a long hair na nakatingin sa amin na nasa bungad habang pinipigilan siya ng dalawang maids na pumasok ng tuluyan.
"Luke, how many times do I have to tell you that I have already decided,"
"But--,"
"You know that we don't have time left, right?"
"Yes, but still you have to rethink that. I am asking you this as your son, not a follower, father,"
Luke said while looking at Matthew with a worried face so I face Matthew because I feel like he should listen to his son.
"High Priest, please consider what he said, and I think we need to postpone this since I need to prepare myself as you said,"
Umahon na ako as I smiled at Luke who is looking at me wondering as he frowns before I pass through him. I left because I think they should really need to talk since makikita ang pag-aalala at hindi maipintang ekspresyon ang mukha ni Luke habang nakatingin kay Matthew but what makes me puzzle was Matthew's expression while looking at Luke was unreadable and somewhat I can sense that something going on with them.
