Not a Perfect Tale

Chapter6: Trolls

"Fine. Go and look for Teagan and your boyfriend by yourself." his words made me stop from walking. Boyfriend? Do i have a freaking boyfriend?

Kung alam niya lang na halos isumpa ako ng mga tao sa mundo ko. Kung alam niya lang kung gaano ako saktan at laitin ng mga kalalakihan doon hindi niya iisiping may kasintahan ako.

Ipinagpatuloy ko lang ang paglalakad ko kaysa isipin pa ang huli niyang sinabi.

I'm now alone. I slightly laughed. May bago pa ba 'don? I'm always alone,because people were scared of me.

Old and huge trees were standing everywhere occupying the whole place, and i guess they're even older than me. Leaves were dancing gracefully everytime the breeze blew gently. The chirpings of birds made me sing and hum,sinusubukang sabayan ang huni nila. I stopped for a while to enhail the earthy scent of the beautiful forest then started to walk again.

This is great! I don't really need Massimo's company,I'm just fine without him. He's a total jackass and I hate him. I can be with my self.

I shook my head then frowned when the thought of him leaving me in the woods crept into my mind.

'Fine. Go and look for Teagan and your boyfriend by yourself.' i made face to mock him inside my head. It's easy for him to leave me in this kind of place huh?! Isn't he worried? Kahit pagbali-baligtarin ang mundo babae pa din ako!. He leave me behind, afraid and alone.

And that's what you like...the inner voice inside my head stated.

Certainly, what I'm just trying to say is that, he should be worried because obviously he knows that I'm just new to their very own world and leaving me alone in the middle of the woods wasn't a good thing. Especially for me, since I'm not familiar to their world.

Why would he care? Youre being mean to him since the moment you'd met.

He should care because I'm a lady! And i have my reasons to hate him really! I hate that voice inside my head, makes me wanna throw my brains instead.

It'll be hard for you to live without brains. Having only a heart makes you stupid...

Oh,shut up brainy!

In a fleeting moment, I've thought that Massimo was right for thinking that I'm sort of a crazy. I'm talking to myself right now and it's actually disturbing.

I looked around thinking of some ways to get out of here, I'm still unfamiliar to the surroundings and infact I think I'm already lost. Bukod sa hindi ko alam kung saan at paano ko hahanapin si Rori at Teagan, hindi ko na din alam ang papabalik sa bahay ni Massimo. I should have not let my pride took over me, I'm now lost and now i don't know where to go.

Ipinagpatuloy ko ang paglalakad sa madamong parte ng kagubat. Lumipas ang oras at hindi ko parin alam kung paano makakalabas sa kagubatan. Napadaan ako sa parte nang gubat na puro bato, medyo nahirapan ako bago makarating sa gitna. Hinawi ko ang ilang baging na nakaharang sa dadaanan. Nagtago ako sa isang malaking bato ng makita ko ang isang fairy na nakasakay sa isang bearded reedling and base on her facial expression she's scared of something.

Her curly brown locks compliment her cute features. I gasp when I witnessed how the troll that's covered with mushrooms and moss aggressively grabbed the two creatures. I panicked when I heard their squeaks. Lumabas ako sa pinagtataguan ko at hinarap ang troll.

"Hoy! Bitiwan mo ang fairy at ang ibon nasasaktan na sila!" matapang kong saad. Nakangisi lang siyang tumingin saakin.

"Ooh so the girl who has the most aromatic blood of all was here...the woman who has the jasmine flower's curse." the troll stated. Paano niya nalaman?
