Chapter 34: It's Just A Joke.
During my first week, Gage would always escort me back and forth to my room. Not just in my room though, but everywhere in The Sanctuary. He said it was Cece's order.
I thought it's just Cece's way to make fun of me. She can read mind, and I know she knew that I've had a crush on Gage before.
Had. And before.
I've been too blind with the sexiness I didn't see the annoying side of him. Physically attracted, yeah, but that's that. There's nothing serious, and all was just a play.
And because of that, I really want to tell her to stop Gage from assisting or whatsoever it is. It was just a silly crush anyway. But I was wrong about her.
That one time, I don't know if she read my mind or just felt that I wanted to talk to her, she asked me what's wrong. I, being honest, told her what's troubling me. That I thought she was just making Gage do that just to mess with me about the crush thing. But no.
She knew I'm scared of getting lost, whether I already know the place or not. So to make me comfortable with them, she made sure I won't feel scared and unsafe towards them and to my surroundings as well.
Though she admitted she really know about my silly crush on him. She already knew it as soon as I laid my eyes on him that day at the Rose Wood pack. But she said she never told him about it, and promised she never will. As his sister, she knew very well that Gage might --sorry, not might. He'll really get big headed if he learned that I've had a crush on him.
Her words, not mine. So she decided it's better if she keep it a secret and told me there's nothing to worry about. And I'm very thankful for having her as a friend whom I can trust, and I super regretted judging her before I can hear her reasons.
I'm such a horrible person. So much for assuming, eh?
Like when we were on the Rose Wood Pack, I thought they were in a relationship or something. You can't blame me though. They're always with each other. And they looked different from one another, so you wouldn't mistake them as siblings.
Compared to Gage's tall, dark and handsome features, Cecilia is the total contrast of him.
With skin so pale it looks unhealthy, her long hair's light blonde. So light it's almost white. And her eyes are Lilac. Actually, she looks like a Barbie doll. Except the height.
She's short --wow, it really came from me, but really, I'm taller than her. A good three inches I guess-- but her body's fine. I mean she's not too fat and not too thin. Just right for her height.
And Cece's more optimistic and calmer. So calm compared to Gage who has a dangerous aura. Cece said he was very sullen, gloomy and used to brood a lot before, and thank goodness it lessened now.
I guess it's because of the age difference. She's maturer than him because she's older. By the way, she's a hundred year older than Gage, who's three hundred years old already.
And she said they're the youngest in their family. And among the ancient (the immortals, I guess) supernatural leaders as well.
Ha-ha. So what am I compared to them? Just a cell?
I also learned that they're half siblings because of their father. Cece said she got most of her Warlock mother's genes and powers with an additional power from their father's side which is clairvoyance. While Gage's the total carbon copy of their father. That's where he got his Dragon powers.
Yep. He's a Dragon.
I guess that's another reason why he's hot-- pardon me. What I mean is hotheaded. Yeah, hotheaded. Let's talk about something else, shall we? How about my stay here?
Actually, now's my first and a half month here in The Sanctuary. (I'm such a topic changer, please bear with me.)
And until now, I'm still holding a grudge against my mother. I really don't want to talk or have any communication with anyone, especially with her. So I decided to turn off my phone and end all my communications to the outside world.
At first, it's very hard. I was used to contacting them through social media. But that's not my issue. The issue is I can't play any games in my phone anymore.
It's like I'm torturing myself. My hands are itching to hold my phone and was very tempted to turn it on and play. But I didn't. And I don't have the right to complain about my decision. I'm doing this for my own sake.
So as a distraction, I busied myself in training with Gage everyday. It really helped, though I'm always completely fatigued and knocked out afterwards.
Gage intended for that to tire me out and of course, to irk me. That's where he's really good at.
But despite my irritation towards him, I accepted it as a challenge. And that gave me a reason to work harder and do better in every training sessions.
And Cece helped a lot too. If Gage helped me physically, Cece helped me emotionally and mentally.
When Gage and I don't have a training, Cece would train me by means of yoga, meditation, and taught me step by step about mind linking.
She's right. If I want to be a good leader or better than that, I have to train harder. And I'm willing to train even if it'll take me a year to perfect all the things they thought me.
But thank goodness when Gage said I'll only have to train for months or so if I continue making improvements. I guess all my efforts and hard work are paying off.
About training for a year..
Nah, I'm good. Pff. It's just a joke.
That would be too much. I've had enough. The perspiration, exhaustion, pain, and everything else I experienced every practice, which is everyday.. I don't think I can last a year doing that all over again. No, no, no.
I'm so freaking done.

A/n: Ye-yo! Just gotten the news on our university page. If you remember, I mentioned the stuff about my four months vacation and that the start of our classes would be on August. I doubt you remember, I don't even know if you pay any attention to my notes. Ouch. 😢😢
Anyway, they said the transition sem thing or academic year shift (Angry schoolmates already called it Academic sh*t, I won't be one of them, though I admit I'm angry too) would be canceled, or anything like that.
Which means, the four months vacation turned to a bubble, or a drawing. Real quick.
If only I could cuss like my best friend who's swearing like she's only praying. But I wasn't raised like that. I envied her a little now. She can express how mad she is. Sigh.
The enrollment starts on June 5, and classes on June 19. And because I'm going to shift course, I would be busy as heck. So please, for one more time, I'm asking for your patience and hope that you'll understand the situation.
Studying is my priority. I'm sorry but I hope you get me.
Don't worry, I won't forget to update whenever I can. After all, I love that you guys enjoy reading TBL despite the slow update haha. I really love you, my bishes. 😂😂😂
But seriously, I really love you guys. Please don't forget me. Hahaha jk. This is not the end, I swear.
So long, bishes!
