What a...shitty situation.

My eyebrow twitched in annoyance. "Aahhhmmmmmm!" I just screamed in my pillow to let out frustration. When I'm done, I continue to bury my face on the pillow. "What the fuck..."

Now that I'm here I just realized how fucked up my current situation is. I'm on a mission with almost no clear instruction on what I need to do. Hyron Claude have no idea about my real reason of being here. Afterall, we can't reveal something like that. It's been decades since I've been on a mission that I'm starting to get rusty. This can't be.

"Think, Selene. Matalino ka, gamitin mo yang utak mo." I told myself as I try to recall all the information I know regarding this mission. Why is he even sending me on a mission all of a sudden?

"I have a different reason for that. You'll know when you get there."

Pft! What different reason will he have? Is he trying to piss me off? That old man! It's annoying pero kulang ako sa oras. I only have three days so every second is gold. At mas gusto kong tapusin kung ano man ang mangyayari bago ang celebration. Sa gayon, hindi ganun karami ang madadamay at masasaktan. Pero kung hindi ko man mapigilan, mas mabuti ng maging handa.

Nagpalit ako ng mas komportableng kasuotan at malinis kong tinali ang buhok ko. I should start by surveying the premises.

Tiningnan ko muna ang sarili ko sa salamin to make sure nothing is crooked bago lumabas ng kwarto. Naglakad ako sa pasilyo ng mansion. Marami akong nakikitang occupied na guest room. Mukhang madaming dadalo mula sa malayong lugar. Talagang malaki ang celebration na magaganap.

I continued walking. The sun rays painted the hallways orange as I continue to wander around. This really takes me back to those days.

Back when Horizon Academy wasn't an Academy. I remember...in the west wing of the mansion. Turn left once and turn right twice, 1st door to the right. That's where father's office will be.

I closed my eyes as I recall the most vivid memory I have with that room.

"Why did you do it?"

"I'm...I'm sorry...I...please...please don't throw me...out..."

I was begging for my life.

"Hoo..."

"Eeekk!" Napatalon ako sa gulat ng may maramdaman akong umihip sa likod ng tenga ko. "What the fuck is your problem?!"

He chuckled mischievously. "Why are you walking with your eyes closed, Selene? What if you trip and fall and I'm not there to catch you?" This fucker...!

"Go away! What do you want?!"

"Should you really be talking to me like that? You know, you're in my territory." Hyron stepped forward but I only stepped back.

"Fuck off!" I said and rolled my eyes before turning around to continue walking.

But this fucker didn't even take more than three strides before catching up to me. Fuck his long legs.

"Where are you going, Selene?"

"Leave me alone."

"Let's eat lunch. You haven't eaten yet, right?"

"Hindi mo ba naintindihan ang sinabi ko?"

"Let's eat in the greenhouse. My mother used to frequent that place. The scenery is wonderful there."

"Ugh!"

"Do you like sweets? I'll ask the chef to prepare a scrumptious dessert after we eat."

I covered my ears and tried to walk faster but he just continue to follow me while blabbering nonsense.
