*Axellous's Point of View
"What do you mean?"Nagkatinginan kaming lahat pagkatapos naming marinig ang sinabi sa akin ni Auntie.
"Follow me."
Ngiting pagkasabi niya bilang pagsagot at sabay na iginaya kami sa paglalakad. That's when we realized, we are right headed to the woods connected at the back of the university.
Gubat na naman? Agad naman akong sumabay sa paglalakad kay Auntie nang mangyari 'yon.
"Isn't it forbidden here?"Tanong ni Rye nang mapagtantuan niya kung saan kami papasok habang nililibot niya ang buong paligid.
"Where are we going?"
Dahil sa pagtataka ay hindi ko na napigilan na itanong 'yon sa kaniya. I eventually furrowed my forehead when she just answered me with a smile as she swiftly removed one of the stanchion in front. Bahagya naman akong napatingin sa likod ko nang makapasok na kami ng tuluyan sa gubat.
I roam my eyes around while walking and an
eerie ambiance suddenly surrounded us.
Patuloy lang kami sa paglalakad na halos umaabot na ng tatlong minuto.
Napabuntong-hininga nalang ako at napatingin nalang kay Auntie na nasa harap na iginagaya kami sa paglalakad, patungo sa kung saan man niya kami dadalhin lalo na at halos ang tanging ilaw lang namin ay yung buwan.
Where have you been, Auntie? Tanging nasabi ko nalang sa isip ko at tumungo habang naglalakad.
"How's Violet, Zace?"
Bigla naman akong napaangat ng tingin nang marinig namin ang tinanong ni Auntie kay Zace na naging dahilan para bahagya akong mapangiwi.
I quickly diverted my attention towards Zace and see what will he reacts.
I pursed my lips. Zace never let us mention Vi's name, ever since what happened from her party. He was really provoked by that guy who attacked us at the event and it almost gave Vi a trauma that made things worst.
Dahil sa tuwing binabanggit namin ang pangalan ng kapatid niya ay parang pinapaalala lang namin sa kaniya ang nangyari, kaya medyo hindi na namin muna siya kinakausap tungkol sa bagay na 'yon.
"Don't you ever dare mention her."Zace bluntly said and look away. Nakita ko namang matamlay agad na napangiti si Auntie sa kaniya matapos niyang marinig ang naging reaksyon ni Zace.
Nagpatuloy kami sa paglalakad hanggang sa namalayan na naming naglalakad na kami sa loob ng-what the hell is this?
"A doric column?"Hue suddenly blurted out of nowhere. I just shrugged upon hearing what he said.
All I know is we are almost walking inside this column or something for 4 minutes. When we eventually reached the end, there we saw a huge ancient greek door.
"Finally, looks like we're here."Sabi ko at sabay na napabuga ng hangin.
Napansin ko naman na lumapit si Auntie sa pinto na naging dahilan para silipin ko kung anong gagawin niya. I unknowingly got curious when I saw how she just stood there right in the middle and in front of the door. The moment it happened, the same time the door automatically opened.
Well, this is ancient in the modern times. I once again pursed my lips upon seeing that.
"Let's go."Agad naman kaming sumunod sa kaniya at pumasok.
"Auntie, where are we?"Wala sa sariling tanong ko sa kaniya. Tumingin naman siya sa akin at ngumiti na naman nang marinig niya 'yon.
"The underground haven of the university."
