Vedh's POV
"Ah, what a long flight," sambit ni Lancelot matapos namin makababa sa plane.
"So, yacht this time?" tanong pa ni Nana.
I groaned. "The flight was tiring. Let's be quiet and have some peace, please."
"Arte!" asar ni Nana sabay hampas sa likod ko.
"Hindi masakit," I said emotionlessly.
"Weh? Patough guy act ka pa diyan!" Nagkibit-balikat na lang ako at nagpatuloy na kaming apat na maglakad sa bridge tungo sa barkong sasakyan namin.
A beautiful lady appeared in front of us wearing a flowly floral white maxi dress paired with a diamond encrusted necklace and a pair of Louboutin summer sandals.
Her face held high cheek bones with prominent eyebrows and what seems to be eyes full of judgement.
"Lea Villegas," mahinang bulong ni Delphine na may halong admirasyon sa tinig niya.
Lea Villegas is an alumni of Fierdale University. Isa siya sa pinakamatagumpay na chemical engineer at negosyante sa bansa.
"Let’s do a quick roll call. Kayo na lang ang hinihintay dito, if you must know. Thus, don't beat around the bush." sabi nito na may halong pananakot sa mga salita at boses niya.
"Adams, Garcia, Gauthier, and Montenegro, all here?" tanong niya.
She really doesn't want to waste time. Sabay-sabay niya kasi kami tinawag. Roll call pa ba 'yon?
"Yes, ma'am!" maligayang tugon ni Nana at binigyan siya ng masamang tingin ng babae bago umalis na at sinenyasan kami na sumunod sa kanya.
"Damn! Hot and scary," komento ni Lancelot bago ito tumawa.
He stopped laughing when the lady turned her eyes on us and glared at him. He turned his head away and coughed.
Delphine rolled his eyes at him.
"Oy, mahilig ka sa older women?" gulat na tanong ni Nana.
"Hoy! Grabe ka diyan. She's only 28 years old!" sagot ni Lancelot habang nanlalaki ang mga mata.
"Lancelot, you're only in senior high school," sabi ko.
Benelatan niya ako.
How childish.
Muli kaming nagpatuloy sumunod sa babae sa aming harap at sa wakas ay nakarating na kami sa loob ng barko.
We're in the main hall of the yacht and there are a lot of young students like ourselves around us.
"Hi! I'm Viella Madrigal! Kakarating niyo lang?" dinig kong tanong ng isang boses na puno ng galak.
The four of us turned around to meet with a petite girl at the height between 5'4 or 5'5 with long jet black hair and the deepest brown eyes I've ever seen. She's wearing a simple white long-sleeved flowly dress and brown sandals.
"Hello! I'm Nana Garcia. Nice meeting you!" agad na bati ng pinakamasiyahing tao sa aming apat.
"Lancelot Adams but you can call me Lance. The four of you all can. Nakakabingi sa akin ang Lancelot dahil hindi ako sana'y," pakilala at sabi ni Lance sabay kurap.
He did say to call him by his name.
Tumango kami at ang babaeng nagngangalang Viella and I introduced myself and the other girl with us.
