Soulstone Academy

Chapter Twenty: Prophecy

That was my plan. That was what I had in mind. And I was so confident to having one of my questions be answered, even just slightly, whenㅡ

When some-fucking-one, damn bastard of a soulbearer perhaps, in his bobo na stupidiot dumbass mind ang muling humatak sa'kin!

I have no idea if kailangan ko nang magsuot ng 'Don't Approach' or 'Caution. Will Punch if Interrupted' as a placard para sa mga lalaking akala mo may fifteen thousand muscles to stop me from inspecting. Kagaya ni Damon kanina at... ni Tsukishima ngayon.

Eww name. Eww actions.

"Ano ba?! Ba't nanghahatak ka?" reklamo ko nang ipalayo niya ako sa bangin.

Heavens! If I kicked this man's groin and just continued with my previous goal, would someone imprison me or kickㅡ speaking of, bakit hindi ko na lang nga kaya gawin? Having me kicked out would be music to my ears but a thunderous news to everyone.

"Either you're dumb or sadyang rebellious ka at hindi mo alam na mapanganib diyan." he lectured like the annoying Damon a while ago.

Humalukipkip ako. I feel like I'm being treated like a child here.

"Alam ko. Ano ba ang akala mo na I'll do, huh? Jump there and say 'hello darkness, my old friend'?" I rolled my eyes. "Hindi ako kasing weird ng pangalan mo."

"My name isn't weird and..." he shot me a glare. "Being dangerously close to that hole isn't something you wantㅡ"

"Paano mo naman nalaman 'yan? Ako, ikaw?"

"Because I know that that place is dangerous-"

"Oo nga. Obvious naman. Pero ako ba, ikaw?"

He stopped walking to huffed an irritated sigh and glanced at me tiredly. Pagod na rin ako dahil naglakad lang ako sa may bangin para hatakin pabalik dito ng mga lalaking nakaregister ata sa heroic days program. Does their ego increases when they think they helped a female?

"Tsaka ano ba ginagawa mo dito?" dagdag ko. "Hindi ko alam na nagchange careers ka na. From a House of Mooncake to the House of Braids."

"It's the House of Ocean Moon and Blades-"

"Ay, talaga? Hindi sila magkaibang houses? The same sila-?"

I smirked when he poked the side of his cheeks before cutting me off. A sign of getting pissed off, huh. What a rare sight for this boy. Mala-Helios ata ang nangyari kanina at ang mukha niya ngayon similar doon sa faces niya everytime he sees sun boy.

"Don't be so easy to annoy, Tsuki. That would make you a very boring person to talk to." I teased. "Pero ano nga ba ang ginagawa mo dito? We have a test here."

"Our Herbs & Scales classes told us to come here dahil may hahanapin kaming certain plant. I was just roaming around nang makita kita."

"Oh, nang makita mo ako? And you instantly fell in love, huh?"

Hindi niya pinansin ang sinabi ko.

"There were no one else around and you were going towards the sinkhole. I was also a bit concerned if you got trapped in any illusion. Kaya tinulungan kita."

"Ang bait mo naman po."

He smirked. "Of course. It gets most girls."

That statement made me want to comment something but he suddenly crossed his arm and raised a brow at me. As if suddenly I was a little kid who must confess her every mischief to an older sibling.

"Now, imouto, can you tell me why you were trying to get near that thing?"

"I will kung sasabihin mo what imo- imoo utu?" I frowned, trying to recall whatever random words it was. "Imu ito? What was that again?"
