Chapter 3 - Outside
"Free yourself, its the only way to feel reality."

Amethyst/Tori's POV
Lumabas na sila Acanthus kaya naiwan na ako dito na mag-isa. But like I said I'll be ready after 5 minutes, so I hurried to the bathroom at naligo na. Yes, 5 minutes. Short time limit. But I finished bathing after 4 minutes....
Its because I didn't washed my hair... I didn't use my shampoo... that's why I managed to finish early. But who cares? Para namang lalapitan nila ako at aamuyin ung buhok ko.
After bathing, nagmadali na akong magbihis, I only have one minute left. Hindi na ako pumili pa ng damit, kung anong unang makita ko yun na ang susuotin ko.
So I ended up wearing a white t-shirt, a leather jacket, and jeans. Samantalang yung sa paa naman, I ended up wearing boots, because its easy to wear, no need to tie shoelaces, isho-shoot mo na lang yung paa mo.
Ok. Im finished, nagmadali na akong lumabas ng kwarto at tulad nga ng inaasahan andun sila naghihintay sa hallway.
"You said 5 minutes... but you extended 25 seconds."
Oh god. Acanthus is getting on my nerves again. But before anything happens, I just chose to ignore him. Because for god's sake, its just 25 seconds, and I haven't even combed my hair.
Bumalik ako sa kwarto at kinuha ko ung suklay at yung bag ko. No choice, I just combed my hair habang naglalakad kami papunta sa dining hall, kumuha na lang ako ng isang sandwich, hunger is one of my least concerns now.
Naglakad na kami papunta kela mom para magpaalam and also to get some advice.
We saw them walking down the stairs so I hurried myself to go there. My parents are one of the members of the council because they are the head of Telmenos, they rule Telmenos, Raveclaws rule Telmenos.
They are respected in our district, every district respects them. But life is full of lies, hindi natin alam na baka isa pala sa rumerespeto sa kanila eh yun pala ang nagtatangkang paslangin at taksilan sila.
"Oh, Amethyst don't --" I cut her off. I don't want to be called Amethyst anymore , because like I said, I want them to call me,
"Tori, mom, call me Tori, short for Victoria Burst. Amethyst Raveclaw will be used after I found my sister. okay?"
Napansin kong bahagyang napatigil si mom at saka si papa. I forgot, shit. Stupid Ameth-- Tori. Si Victoria Burst.
Sya ang dahilan kung bakit nagkakilala si mom and dad. Sya rin ang dahilan kung bakit halos magpakamatay si dad. Nung mga oras na yun si mama lang ang katabi ni dad.
Si mom lang ang nakakalapit kay dad, hirap na hirap na si dad, isipin mo na lang na namatay ang taong pinakamamahal mo sa sarili mong harapan. At kung gaano kasakit ang nararamdaman ni dad, ganun din ang nararamdaman ni mom.
Nawalan din ng matalik na kaibigan si mom, they were close friends simula pa lamang daw ng mga bata pa sila.
At nung dumating na si dad, parehong nahulog ang loob nilang dalawa. Pero mas pinili na lamang ni mom na baliwalain ang nararamdaman niya kesa sa masira ang pagkakaibigan nila Victoria kaya nagpakalayo muna si mom.
Pero nung nalaman na ni mom na pumanaw na si Victoria, bumalik sya sa Telmenos, at dun na bumalik ng tuluyan ang nararamdaman niya.
Pero kung masakit na ang mawalan ka ng kaibigan idagdag mo pa na minamasdan mo lang yung taong mahal mo na halos mawala na sa sarili at halos magpakamatay na. Wala ka man lang magawa kundi
panuorin, pakalmahin at intindihin ang mahal mo.
