Terla stood at her seat like a statue as she stared at the man she had forgotten.
Nick returned to his seat and after staring at each other for a moment, Terla tried to leave.
"Terla..." Nick called out and tried to catch her leaving hands but "Nick," the girl beside stopped him shaking her head.
"Let her go. She might not listen to you now."
He could only stand still, staring at the leaving figure.Terla walked and walked until she reached a place where nobody could be found.
She was not sure why she came here or why she even ran away from the start.
She knew she would meet him again one day...but why? Why has she run away?
This is not how she had thought about their meeting. Not how she has imagined and practised.
She should have stayed cool. She could have smiled at him like meeting an old acquaintance.
But why...?She stood there lifelessly, zoning out to the unknown.
Then, "Sister Terla.", a girl's sweet voice rang in the surrounding.
Terla turned back where she found a girl with fairy-like golden blonde hair.
She looked really cute and gorgeous with her honey doll eyes.
She wore a blinding white dress decorated with golden accessories which made her angelic figure seem like a fallen goddess.
She was such a beauty everyone wouldn't be able to help but fall for and adore.But, Terla knew very well what was behind that angelic mask.
"Sister? You don't need to play pretend between us. Right? Young priestess of Orton."
"Right!"
The girl's voice still sounded sweet and appealing but an evil smile appeared on that cute little face.'Dorothy Hodgkin.' Terla's expression wasn't good as she spelled the name in her mind.
Terla didn't realize but Anna was feeling no better than her.Dorothy Hodgkin, she is the daughter of Orton's mayor and Academy's headmistress. She is also the sister of Lenox Hodgkin, who once was my bro and also Nick's bro. We were born on the same day of the same year whereas she was born at the brightest time of the day and I was born at the darkest time of midnight. And, on that very day, the priest temple received a prophecy from the spirit queen that a girl born that day at the time when nature's energy reached the fullest, will be the ruler of all lands and the light spirit king will accompany her journey.
The prophecy shook the whole "Land of peace" and she became the 'Young priestess of Orton' from the day she was born. She entered the priest temple and became a priestess everyone respected and favored unlike me, an unknown extra, who was born on the same day but in a different family and had to change her birthday record.
She has such a good reputation but it is not necessarily the case for everyone. There are those so-called anti-fans who have seen her real face. That's when the authority of being a mayor's daughter came in handy. The anti-fans once gathered to expose her evil deeds but Dorothy moved to our school in Stonesbarrow for one year and the rumours all died down in one day as word of jealousy on the street.
Really, I once believed that the rumours were spread out of jealousy and treated her like a sister but ..."You are not thinking of making up with him just because he sat beside you today, right?"
*humph*
"Nonsense!"
"Hee, that's good. I would be disappointed if you do. I love him very much, you know, sister?"
"If you say so, why did you even break up with him from the start? I could say he treated you well."
"Hmm... how cheap. How could I tie him up when I was not the one on his mind? It pains me when he's sad."
"What did you do to Hazel?"
*hee hee he*
"Oh, I can't hide anything from you sister. How good it would be if you stayed stupid and innocent like before!"
Terla frowned at her words, "So, it was really your doing."
*hee hee*
"I am really sad to hear such harsh words, sister. I just did what a priestess should have done."
"You..."
"Mmm... he didn't love her that much anyway. He was just being reluctant to break up and was afraid of becoming a cheater. He was lying to himself saying he loved her. He is such a good man, isn't he?"
