Eternal and Mortality
Prologue

“I will go there and reached the dream you always wanted to be. I will chase that dream for you. I promise.”

Kristine smiled as she entered the school building. So this is what it feels like, huh? To be surrounded closely by many people, minding their own business and not caring about your actions. It feels... different.

Tama nga siya. Ibang-iba ito sa mundo at buhay na nakasanayan niya. But she knew...this is just a beginning. Expected na ni Kristine na mahihirapan siya pero alam niyang kakayanin niya.

Pagkakatiwalaan ko ang sarili ko tulad ng pagtitiwalang binigay niya sa akin, paalala niya sa sarili.

“Kapag malungkot ka at pakiramdam mo ay nag-iisa ka, isipin mo lang na narito ako upang damayan ka kahit pa magkalayo tayo. Ngitian mo lang ang problema, lilipas din 'yan!”

She tried to smiled but failed in the end. I should practice more, wika niya sa sarili. She heaved a sigh then, continue walking. Kailangan pa kasi niyang hanapin ang classroom kung saan siya naka-assign. Ayaw niyang ma-late.

Kristine was in the middle of watching those baseball players when she bumped with somebody. She sighed not in frustration with the she bumped with but because of embarrassment.

Stupid, Aira! You're not watching your step properly, pagalit niya sa sarili.

She looked at the person she bumped with. Matangkad ito kaya't kinakailangan niya pang tumingala upang makita ang mukha ng naka-bangga. It’s a guy and by the looks and his attire, he's some kind of hard-headed student which professors really hate. In short, walang modong estudyante. He’s just wearing a plain white shirt with a leather jacket on top, paired with black pants and white shoes.

Everything was plain but he still managed to look good in that outfit. May kasama rin ito. They’re all handsome, almost have the same height. I just wonder if they also have the same attitude.

“Move your ass out of my way,” Palihim na napa-ngisi si Kristine. Mukhang tama ang hinala niya. Parehas na parehas sa kinuwento niya sa akin.

His brown eyes met her and dude, it was so cold. Without saying anything, Kristine step aside to make a way for him. She even saw them smirked at her but she just ignored it. It’s not that she do not fear them. She’s just cringing by their action. Kung maka-asta kasi ang mga ito ay akala mo high school students.

“Transfer student?” She looked at him and just nodded. Pero nananatili pa rin ang kaniyang tingin sa dalaga habang nakakunot ang kaniyang noo. Kristine almost rolled her eyes. He wanted me to talk.

“Yes, I’m a transfer student.” he just gave her a head-to-toe look before nodding his head.

Wow. I feel like I’m being judged by someone I don't even know, hindi makapaniwalang turan ni Kristine sa kaniyang isipan.

Well, maybe that's what people are. They tend to judge a person without even knowing that person even just a little bit. What they see is enough for them to judge.
Tumalikod na ang dalaga sa kanila at nagpatuloy na sa paglalakad. She have her own business. Mas maigi pang huwag niyang patulan ang mga ito. She suddenly remember my life back then, she was just in the palace and doing her responsibility as an heiress. Her actions were depended on everyone, she should please her followers. She should act according to rules that is implemented by her ancestors.
