Mystic Identity (Magic Series #1)

If it wasn't for him, siguro hanggang ngayon kausap ko pa rin si Zarell. We're already inside the school premises and yes, pinagtitinginan kami.

"Oh, you're half day again? Strike two ka na ah." Andropov said nung nakasalubong namin s'ya. "Oh, hi Carlos."

"And what's wrong with that?" Mataray kong tanong pabalik sa kanya. "Is this one of your pranks again? I swear sasabihin ko na 'to kay Lolo, gosh ka. Hindi ba nasabi sa 'yo ni Lolo napupunta kami sa Eme—" then he cut me off!

"Yeah I know, niloloko lang kita." Sabi n'ya at sabay tawa.

"Stop it, Andropov, it's not funny." I said and went straight to my desk, sinamaan ko s'ya ng tingin. I can't stand him kahit pinsan ko s'ya!

"Oy! Bakit ang sama ng mukha ng pinsan mo?" Sabi ni Drew, one of Andropov and Matthew's friends. Drew's a fire mage, and he is the type of person who doesn't care if his enemy is a water mage. He could use dark, blue, white, and crimson red flames, well it depends on his mood sometimes.

"Isa ka pa!" I shouted at him, nakakainis kasi. 

"Pagpasensyahan mo na si Kuya Drew, Emerald, alam mo naman kung anong trending, nakikitrend." Sabi ni Driwela, Drew's twin sister. Kakambal ni Drew si Driwela. Driwela's Water Controller. 

"Shut up guys," Isa pa 'tong may baritonong boses, God, it's kind of attractive kaso may iba din s'yang kinahahantungan eh. "Ritz, can we have snacks later?"

Ayan na nga, he likes Ritz but! Ritz likes Andropov which means may love triangle rito. "Sorry but I can't, may training tayo later right?"

"Yeah, I forgot... Sorry."

"It's fine." 

"Nadidismaya ako..." Chelia is singing, pang-asar bang kanta ganun. "Sa mga padali n'yo." And she laugh like hell.

"Alam naman naming matchmaker ka," Drew said, "Kung imamatchmake mo man kami, sana sa maayos okay?"

"Sure why not?"

Nakikinig lang ako sa mga usapan nila, I don't have time to have fun for today dahil naiinis ako ngayong araw na 'to! He said he loves Mama? Talaga ba?

"Baka matunaw si Driwela, Eugene, oh God I don't want to lose my friend." Pagpaparinig ni Chelsea kay Eugene, another love triangle. It's not yet a month of love pero sa room namin, love is in the air talaga.

For Eugene, Chelsea is a living megaphone and Chelia is a matchmaker. But for me, Chelsea can manipulate you through her telekinesis magic, and Chelia can create a huge mess and can get away with it without no one knowing that she created it.

"Chelia, why don't you matchmake your sister to Eugene 'no?"

"Omg! Bet ko 'yan!" Chelia is so happy with my opinion, "Ready na ba kayo guys? May bagong love team na!"
