Chapter 15: Curiosity

QZ's POV:

"That was absolutely awesome! I'm so happy for you QZ. You did a great job and dahil doon you got a high score na naman.."

"okay din naman ang score mo eh. 85 out of 100. Not bad para sa isang katulad mong walang hilig sa pagguhit."

"Psh! Yeah. Half of it ay dahil kay Louise. Thanks to him tinulungan niya ako."

"Hahaha now I know kung bakit bigla kang nawala kahapon."

We're talking about the portrait. Thank goodness natapos ko siya kagabi kahit binabagabag ako ng mga nasa isip ko.

"We're not going to the library right?"

"Sorry to disappoint you Yanna but I'm going. Kung ayaw mo you're free to out. May gagawin lang ako."

"Aww gusto ko pa man ding mag shopping with you. Psh!"

"Next time na lang isa pa hindi ako mahilig jan."

"Yeah yeah.. kaunti na lang talaga malapit ko ng maisip na hindi ka babae.."

"What?"

"Hehe nothing."

"Tss. Umalis ka na nga."

"Oo na. So sungit."

I decided to do some research about Hilton University. Hoping to get  information ASAP. Dahil alam kong hindi ako patatahimikin ng kuryosidad ko.

Nilibot ko ang buong paligid pagkapasok na pagkapasok ko sa loob ng library.

It's huge. Well organized.

"Ms. Excuse me." I approached the librarian near the front door.

"Yes?"

"Amh.. where do I found the history of Hilton University?"

Napakunot ang noo niya sa tinuran ko. Why? Is there something wrong?

"No one interested to ask that."

"You mean I'm the first one?"

Nag-iwas siya ng tingin at tumingin sa magkabilang gilid.

"Who are you?"

"I'm QZ" I hate the way she glance. She's like a paranoid lady now compared to her calm and casual expression earlier.

"You're just an ordinary girl. No one can read the history except to those student who have power."

"What do you mean?"

"I don't see any special in you. You may leave cause you're just wasting your time."

Napakuyom ang kamao ko dahil sa inis. Sino siya para sabihin iyon?

Nahintatakutan siya ng makita ang nagbabaga kong tingin.

"I said leave!"

"I won't give up. I'll find my own way" I said bago tumalikod paalis.

Nakatingin na ang ibang student but I don't care. Mga nag-iwas naman din kaagad nung tiningnan ko.

Tss. Meron talagang mali dito.

ZX's POV:

"I said don't accept what she want. "

"I did what you told me King Ice."

"No you didn't. You just gave her a hint. Tss."

"I'm sorry."

Hinilot ko ang sintido ko at sinenyas na maaari na siyang lumabas.

Zerine, you're not following what I told you before huh? you're not trusting me.

I think I need to make a new move. I'll talk to her to clear some things.

She can't know the past, not yet. She's not ready to face it.
