Sweet Affliction (Phoenix series #1)

Chapter 12

Mischievous grin

I found myself staring upon the window beside me as I watched the rainfall drenched over the ground outside. The lights from the water fountain make the whole surrounding more elegant and relaxing.

I always find the teardrops of heavy rain and dark gloomy sky peaceful and quiet. The rain will always be my favorite weather as it makes me calm and sleepy. I yawned. My bed is now calling me this afternoon and yet I'm not with her.

I miss my bed...

"Ms. Alcantara!" I jumped from my seat as I heard my name. I almost forgot that I'm still in my class. Nakapamewang na nakaharap sa akin si Miss. Sanchez. History of Architecture. I stand up from my sit. I even heard Marina chuckled beside me but I ignored her.

"Yes, Miss?"

"you seem not listening in my class" Istriktong pahayag nito.

"No Miss," I said honestly. She raised her brow and point the board. It was the date where the history of Architecture begun.

"If you did not answer my question well, you're dismissed" she threatened. I simply nod. Buti nalang ay nag-aral na ako sa subject na ito pero hindi ko maiwasan makaramdam ng kaba sa itatanong niya.

"How did the Architecture begin in History?" kita ko ang matatalim na titig nito sa akin. I sighed. But still, I answer her.

"The history of architecture is about as long as the history of humanity itself, and probably just as complex. The exact origin of architecture could be said to date to the Neolithic period, around 10 000 BC, or simply when people stopped living in caves and started handling the way they want their houses to look and feel like." napatango tango ito na parang nabigla na tama ang naging sagot ko. Pero hindi pa yata siya kuntento at nagtanong pa.

"Where and when did the concept of Architecture originated?"

Nag-isip ako. I do advance reading kaya medyo may idea na ako. "Renaissance architecture, style of architecture, reflecting the rebirth of Classical culture, that originated in Florence in the early 15th century and spread throughout Europe, replacing the medieval Gothic style"

And when I thought she was done asking ay nagtanong pa ulit ng isa. "What are the branches of Architecture?" I stopped and think carefully. Alam kong pito iyon pero hindi ko matandaan ang pangalan isang branch...hhmm what is it...
