Chapter 18:
AFTER we got out, in a snap, we're at the room again. But with Yllaire still unconcious. I'm also puzzled if I'm gonna tell her about Señor Philosophicio Javier and Lucifer after she wake up.
"Hey, true owner of the ore, what shall I do?" I asked out of nowhere, almost a whisper.
"I'll bring her back first," the voice said. "Take care of the things here again alone until the time comes," she added.
She had a life, but can't she just stay here?
"No, but she'll be back soon to help you," the owner of the ore said in the calmest voice that made me calm in a second. Almost like a mother who assured her child that he'll be safe as long as she's here.
At the same time the entrance door if the dormitory was swallowing Yllaire's body. I'm sad that she'll be back and I also envy that she can go through that door. Like when will be my turn?
"Soonest, my dear," the voice said and a dust of gold surrounded in the whole room. As if the true owner of the ore know that something good will happen in the near future I don't know.
Yumi's POV
IT'S ALMOST a month since I've been back and was not summoned again inside the door to Treveloré.
Nakita daw ako nila Teodore at Svanier na walang malay bago matapos ang program at dinala sa hospital at hindi sa clinic muna dahil sa pagkataranta nilang dalawa. At kagaya ng dati, overfatigue pa rin, kung saan kinabitan naman ako ng IV drip. Kase everytime na bumabalik din ako, p'wera sa pagod, dehydrated pa masyado.
I mean, minsan lang ako kumain sa loob ng pisteng mundo na 'yun. S'yempre demonyo ang may-ari at ang laki-laki pa ng trust issues ko, kasing laki ng sama ng loob ni Lucifer.
Maaga pa, kaya dinaanan ko muna ang Treveloria Building. Kamusta kaya siya?
Wala kase akong maalala p'wera sa bandang sinabihan ako ni Desmond na sa wakas nahanap niya na ako or something like that. And that's all, including the vague images of books made of stairs, the fire.
Naaalala ko naman 'yung mga nangyari pagakapunta ko ro'n ulit pero 'yan, 'yung huli kong ginawa at kung paano ako ulit nakabalik ay hindi ko maalala.
It's irritating. That all I do for a couple of minutes is stare at the building as I loiter for nothing.
"Ten minutes nalang magriring na 'yung bell," may narinig akong boses, si Teodore.
"What the heck are doing here, the heck of a club president but was named after a chipmunk?" I asked him but I also immediatley stepped backwards ahen I realized what I said to him.
"Kase ito ang daanan papunta sa building namin, heck of a lady who uses 'heck' in everyday basis who was named after a flower but only looks like it but was really a beast," he replied grinning as he uses his perspicacity to counterstrike the things I've said about him... out of blue.
"You could use other words than a beast, you know?" I sighed out of irritation.
"I should've keep my name to be known forever as Darci," I heard him whispered.
"You can't go back to the past, though. Everyone calls you that now, too bad for you," I tapped his shoulder in which he tapped it back.
Superstition believer, well, can't blame him. Knowing the issues of this school made me believe too... at sa kamalas-malasan, na-experience pa.
Tumalikod na ako para pumunta sa room ko.
"You worried?" I heard him asked, making me look back at him who was now staring at the building.
