Chapter 4- Falling

                  Chapter 4- Falling

-ANDREA-

"There are three worlds?"

"Wait lang, Drea." pagsingit naman ni Hannah. "Astoria, you're so stupid talaga." Hannah looked at Astoria ang rolled her eyes. "Hindi three worlds ang mayroon." she rolled her eyes again na parang she's so stressed.

"E-EH ANO!?" naguguluhan kong tanong. Ang gulo ha. Magke kwento na nga lang, mali mali pa. So ano, who's right between the two of them?

Napa "Ay!" naman si Astoria in embarrassment. Well, parang hindi naman siya actually nahiya na nag kwento sya ng maling story. "THERE ARE TWO WORLDS NGA PALA!" ano ba yan, pamali mali ng kwento, hays.

"I will be the one to tell nalang." maarteng sabi ni Hannah as it looks like she's really proud that she'll be telling the right story. "Ganito kasi yon, Drea. There are two worlds, the other one is called the 'Ordinary World' nga, while the other is this world we are in, The Land of Fairytales. After The Great War, The Land of Fairytales was divided into three parts; The Regal World, The Renegade World, and The Rouge World."

"The three worlds that I'm talking about eariler, is yung three parts of this Land of Fairytales. And hindi ang Ordinary World yung kabilang ng Regal and Renegade kundi ang Rouge. nalito lang ako earlier hehe." Astoria said while smiling. Yung smile na nanghihingi ng tawad. "Hiwalay ang Land of Fairytales sa Ordinary World." In a snap, sumeryoso siya.

Inirapan siya ni Hannah at nagsalita ulit. "So as I was saying, ang Regal World is the world of Regals (also known as Royals) like us, royalties and from noble families. The Renegade World naman is of course for Renegades, Renegades are adventures. And then there are the Rouges living in their Rouge World, Rouges are obsessed with power and prestige, The don't care if nakakasakit na sila ng iba. All they want is to get ahead. In short, they are selfish magic users. "

"What does Fairytale means?" I asked kahit alam ko naman kung ano ang meaning non. I just want to know if what's its meaning to the people who are actually in the Fairytale World.

"Uhm, nobody knows. Maybe yoon lang yung tawag because they like? I don't know, not sure, just guessing. And I don't think that there's a particular meaning of that either." pagkikibit balikat pa ni Hannah.

Suddenly, a paper appeared in front of me. It's floating. Parang tinapunan ng kape ang papel na ito because of its color, may nakatali pa dito na red ribbon to secure ang pagkaka-roll nito. I decided to remove the ribbon and binuksan na ang papel to see what's written.

It's a... class schedule?

"I forgot to tell you, guys. Hindi ko pa din pala naaannouce." palagi kasing si Astoria daw ang nagaannouce since she's the campus president. "There has been a change of schedule. Wala na tayong recess while our lunch time is 1 hour nalang to lessen the class hours, according to the school administrators." pageexplain pa niya.

I saw Hannah pouted. "1 hour lunch? Is that enough? I can't imagine it."

"Look at the bright side." sabi ni Astoria sabay akbay kay Hannah. "Class hours will be dismissed 2 hours and 30 earlier than before. Kung dati gabi na tayo nakakauwi sa dorm, this school year, mas maaga."Astoria explained.

"We can go to the mall! Not only when there are no classes, but also after classes!" excited na sabi ni Astoria.

Nawala naman ang excitement sa mga mata ni Hannah. "No thanks. I'm a home buddy, remember?" she said and eyerolled at Astoria.

"You can stay here for a long time and watch as many dramas as you want. Hindi mo ba naisip yon?" Astoria rolled her eyes while si Hannah naman ay hindi yon pinansin but instead, she clapped her hands in excitement.

For what I know, hindi nage-exist ang gadgets dito and wala ding technology, as well as electricity, puro magic lang. And yes, yung mga chandelier na nandito and all equipments na nangangailangan ng electricity sa ordinary world, magic ang nagpapagana.

"Where do you watch?" I asked Hannah.

"Ng dramas?" I just nodded as a response. "Live, at the town. I'll use my telescope so I can watch them kahit malayo sila." ah so live pala. "Do you know cartoons?" cartoons? Paano niya nalaman yon, eh live ang dramas dito? "The actors use magic para magmuka silang animated."

Suddenly, a box appeared in front of me. It's floating.

The three of us read the note and it says that it's for me.

To: Andrea Collins
-R.A administrators

I opened the box and inside it are 3 polo sleeves, 3 blazers na medyo fit, 3 below the knee skirts, 3 stockings, and 3 neckties.

"Isuot mo na yan together with your white sneakers muna. Let's go to the town to buy you a pair of school shoes." pagyaya ni Hannah.

I went inside the bathroom to change. Naligo naman ako kanina eh hehe.

Even the bathroom is big. There's a huuuuge mirror na sakop ang isang wall. May shower at bathtub na kasing size ng isang jacuzzi pool. May gold chandelier sa taas na may diamonds just like every other chandelier in this school.

I looked at the mirror once I finished dressing up.

The first thing I saw is my pretty blue eyes. I wonder if may magiging change ba if I change my eye color. But still, I love my eye color.

I brushed my long, straight, blonde hair before leaving the bathroom.

Lumabas na ko sa bathroom at sabi nila ay lumabas na daw kami sa campus at pumunta sa town.

I only noticed now that the hallway of this dorm is carpeted, the carpet is color red. May mga nakahilera na maliliit na chandelier sa taas, mga 7ft ang layo nila sa bawat isa. Malayo ang pagitan sa isa't-isa ng bawat pintuan and each wall door rooms na madadaanan namin ay may katabing malaking frame na may painting.

•••

Kanina pa kami naglalakad pero nasa campus pa din kami.

"Are we still far from the town?" I asked with a bored tone. Naubos na ang energy ko habang naglalakad kami kanina.

"We're almost there. But bago tayo makarating sa town, asdfghjkl..." hindi ko na napakinggan ang sinasabi ni Astoria as I got distracted by the dragons flyin-- WAIT, DID I SEE DRAGONS!?

Naalala ko naman ang nasa class schedule namin na may Dragon training nga pala.

I was looking at the dragons and--

"Andre--"

"AAAAAAHHHHHH!" I realised na wala nang sumusuporta sa kinatatayuan ko kanina.

I'm falling in this unfamiliar world and I don't know where I'll land.

Is this the end?
