Echoes Of Vanth Academy

Euphrasia.

"Take his place and be my girlfriend?"

Napaawang naman ang mga labi ko at gulat siyang tinignan.

"Nabagok ba ulo mong gago ka? Anong girlfriend? Nababaliw ka na ba?" Inis na sabi ko.

"I'm serious."

Napasinghap naman ako, "What the hell, Storm?"

"Don't get me wrong. I don't like you. I just need you to exterminate the pesky nuisances swarming around me."

Mahina akong natawa. "So you're going to use me to get rid of those admirers of yours? Because you know they won't stand a chance against me?"

"Fair enough, Corrine. You'll use me to help your friend, but in return, you'll be mine."

Naikuyom ko ang kamao ko. Calm down, Corrine.

Kumalma ka- hindi, ang sarap sikmurain ng lalaking ito sa mukha!

"Nakakainis ka! Why don't you just use your fucking abilities to get rid of those girls around you? Bakit kailangan mo pang pahirapan ako?"

"If you're unwilling, then fine. Do you think I fucking care? I'll find someone else to help me. But as for you? Who will stand in my way when I decide to deal with your friend?"

He grinned knowingly. "The decision rests with you, Narhiara."

Fuck! Bwisit!

Naikuyom ko ang kamao ko. "Fine!" Inis na sabi ko. "So don't dare touch my friend, Storm!"

Inis na sabi ko, nakita ko ang pagtaas ng sulok ng labi niya bago ako makalabas ng office niya, inis kung sinara ang pinto.

Yung naghatid ka lang ng cupcakes sa office ng boss mo, tapos paglabas mo may boyfriend ka na.

Galing! So great, fuck! Ang malas ko talaga.

"Worth!"

I called him out, nandito ako ngayon sa cafeteria, dala-dala yung cookies na ginawa ko para kay Worth.

"This is for you," seryosong sabi ko at ibinigay sa kanya ang box ng cupcakes. His smile widened kaya napangiti ako.

"Wow, thanks."

Sumeryoso naman ang mukha niya, "So? Bakit ka pumunta ng North Library?" seryosong tanong ko.

Nakita ko ang pagbabago ng expression sa mukha niya. "So, you knew."

"Of course, nakalimutan mo na ba? Vice president ang kaharap mo, Worth," seryosong sabi ko.

Nakamot naman siya sa ulo, "Ah hehe, sorry. Book lover ako, at na-curious ako nung binanggit ng kaibigan ko. Nawala sa isip ko yung about sa rules."

Napatango naman ako, "Next time, think about the consequences of your actions, Worth. This isn't some kind of playground, this is a dangerous place led by a dangerous man. So please, Worth, be careful. If you do this again, I'll be the one to punish you and turn you into a statue. Naiintindihan mo ba ako?"

Tinaasan niya ang dalawang kamay niya na parang sumusuko, kaya napabuntong-hininga ako.

Magsasalita sana ako ulit nang biglang nag-notif ang cellphone ko.

From: Alagad ni Satanas

Uwi.

Napakunot naman ang noo ko, at napangisi, akala niya susunod ako sakaniya?

To: Alagad ni Satanas

Maya.

Wala pang ilang segundo ay naka recieved ulit ako ng text kay Storm.
