𝓔𝓲𝓰𝓱𝓽𝓮𝓮𝓷

It's been two months since napunta ako rito sa Enchanted. Everything is going really well. I decided to finally accept their friendship and we became closer. Clark on the other side is still annoying the shit out of me.

"Why did you call again, master?" tanong ni Lance. We're here at his office, he suddenly pulled us out of the classroom kasi may sasabihin daw.

"Come on, tanda! Excited na ako," sabi naman ni kuya. Master glared at him kaya tumahimik nalang si kuya.

"I'll be sending you on a mission," sabi nito. A mission? For real? Everyone gasped in excitement.

"Totoo ba 'yan?" Hindi makapaniwalang tanong ni Aira.

"Yes. It will be on the Mortal World," sabi nito na ikinagulat ko. Makakabalik na ako roon!

"What mission are we going to do and how long are we gonna stay there?" Tanong naman ni Clark. He's beside me, playing with my hair. He always does that, feeling ko nga naiinggit siya sa buhok ko. Should I give him a wig?

"You'll be finding my stubborn son. Hindi ko alam kung saang lupalop ng mundong iyon napadpad. You know him, he loves trying new things and I'm worried dahil ibang klase gumawa ng kalokohan 'yon," sabi nito saamin. This should be his personal mission, right?

"Ano naman kinalaman namin sa kanya, master?" tanong ni Aly.

"Well. The gem I asked him to get is on his hands and we need it now para mapanatili ang lakas ng barrier," sagot ni master. Okay, then.

"When is that, master?" This time ay ako naman ang nagtanong.

He grinned and clasped his hands. "Tomorrow and you'll be given a month to do it."

"Agad?" sabay na tanong namin. He nodded enthusiastically.

"I'll excuse you for today's class to prepare. You will be going early tomorrow," sabi nito. We just nodded at nagpaalam na na aalis.

We're now inside our dorm at nakasalampak sa sofa at sahig. We're done packing our things at nakatunga nga nalang kami ngayon.

I am sitting on the floor while Clark is on the sofa, playing with my hair. He's braiding it, surprisingly.

"Saan ka natuto nito?" I asked him. Each one of us ay kanya-kanyang tunga nga. I mean, not literally, may kanya-kanya lang ginagawa.

"I have a little sister," he replied as he stroked my hair gently. Ang gaan ng kamay niya. I remember mom used to play with my hair until I fall asleep.

"You're good at this, huh," I murmured while trying to stop myself from sleeping.

"It's alright. You can sleep." That's the signal, I immediately drifted to sleep dahil sa ginagawa niya sa buhok ko.

"Wake up, sleepyhead." I groaned and covered my ears with my pillow.

"Layas!" I hissed with my sleepy voice.

"Come on. We will be going now," sabi nito na nakapag patayo saakin. My eyes widened at agad na tumakbo papunta sa cr. I immediately did my morning ritual.

I wore a robe before going out of the bathroom. Napahinga ako ng maluwag nang umalis na pala si Clark sa kwarto ko. I went inside the walk-in closet at pinili ang isang off shoulder top at tinuck in ko ito sa isang checkered pencil skirt. I wore a sneakers to complete my look.

When I finished dressing up ay lumabas na ako at agad na lumapit sa vanity table. I am blow drying my hair when he came in.

"Let me," he said, grabbing the blower from my hand. Siya nga ang nagpatuyo ng buhok. I'm very comfortable around him kaya naman he can freely come inside, of course para gawin ito saakin. Weird pero nasasanay din naman ako.

After drying it ay marahan niya itong sinuklay. He grab a clip on the table at nilagay iyon sa buhok ko. I applied a liptint at tumayo na grabbing my magic bag.

"Let's go," I said at nauna nang maglakad palabas. He followed me hanggang sa makababa na kami.

"Sa kwarto mo na ba tumitira 'yang si Clark?" tanong ni Lance. I just rolled my eyes on him na ikinatawa niya.

"Nahahawa ka na talaga sa katarayan ng dalawang amazona," he said playfully.

"I heard it, dumbass!" sigaw ni Aira na ngayon ay pababa na.

"Let's go?" aya ni kuya nang makitang kompleto na kami sa baba. It's still 5 in the morning at medyo antok pa ako.

Nag simula na kaming maglakad papunta sa office ni master. When we arrived there ay naghihintay na ito saamin.

"Are you ready?" Masayang sabi nito. We nodded.

"Follow me." We followed him until he's already in front of a door. Meron pala ito rito? Hindi ko 'to nakita before.

He opened the door at bumungad saamin ang isang malaking kwarto ngunit walang laman.

"Ouvrir pour nous, portail!" He casted at unti-unting lumilitaw ang portal.

"Please be careful," sabi nito. We nodded at isa-isa nang pumasok sa portal. Nagpahuli kami ni Clark. When all of them were already inside ay sabay kaming pumasok.

This portal is still giving me a headache. After a second ay iniluwa kami sa isang pamilyar na kalsada.

"Malapit lang 'to sa bahay namin," Kuya said.

"So, we'll stay there!" Excited na sabi ni Aly. Makikita rin ang excitement sa mata nina Aira.

"Let's go. Walking distance lang naman," I said and nag lakad na.

We walked for how many minutes hanggang sa narating namin ang subdivision.

The guard checked us but he recognized me and kuya kaya kaagad kaming pinapasok. We walked a little hanggang sa marating namin ang gate ng bahay. It's a black sliding gate.

"Ang ganda ng bahay niyo," Lance commented.

"Oo nga! Let's get in!" excited na sabi ni Aira. Kuya just chuckled at binuksan na ang gate. We went inside. Wala kaming katulong, ayaw ni mom.

" There are four guest rooms, sakto lang sa inyo. Kayo na lang ang bahalang pumili sa itaas. Let's take a rest first and let's gather here later at lunch, okay?" Mahabang litanya ko. They nodded at excited na umakyat.

Nang makaakyat na sila ay kaming dalawa na lang ni kuya ang natira. I looked at him.

"Is it safe here? The reason why mom sent us to Enchanted ay dahil sa may nakasunod na masamang magician dito," I said.

"I know, I'm also thinking of that. But don't worry, sis. We have our friends now, they will help us. We can fight together," he said and gave me an assuring smile. I smiled back na ikinagulat niya.

"Simula talaga nang makapunta ka sa Enchanted ay marunong ka ng ngumiti at umimik," sabi nito. I rolled my eyes at tumakbo na lang paitaas.

Pumasok ako sa kwarto at agad na tumalon sa kama ko. I missed this, so much. The whole room is clean, just like 2 months ago.

"I hope we'll be okay here. Ito na kinatatakutan ko, ang madamay sila. I don't know if taking this risk will bring me any good. But whatever it is, ang importante ay naging masaya ako, diba? I experienced having many friends, ready to fight with me and that's all that matters."
