Legends of Olympus (On Hold)

Annual Olympics I

Paige's POV

With a towel still on my hair and a bathrobe wrapped around me, I opened the main door for the aurai who stood beside a mobile clothing rack. Four long chitons hung under it, each wrapped in plastic covers.

The aurai handed me a clipboard and a pen. It only took me seconds to sign the delivery receipt, before I pulled the clothing rack inside the dorm. Its wheels continued to roll when I turned around and used my ability to gently close the door without touching it.

I also used my telekinetic power to make the clothing rack levitate from the floor. Nakasunod sa akin ito nang umakyat ako ng hagdan. At saka lang lumapag ulit sa sahig pagkarating ko sa second floor kung saan madahan ko itong tinulak patungo sa kwarto ni Reign.

Hedone opened the door for me. "Finally."

Tulak-tulak ang clothing rack, pumasok ako ng kwarto at nadatnan si Amber na nakaupo sa tapat ng vanity table habang si Bella naman ay kumakain ng dried seaweed sa lounge chair.

Like me, they also wore their own bathrobes. 

While Reign...

Inilipat ko ang aking atensyon sa babaeng nakatihaya sa kanyang higaan at bahagyang nakapiling ang ulo sa unan. Natakpan ng kanyang buhok ang kalahati ng kanyang mukha at bahagyang nakaawang ang kanyang bibig habang natutulog.

I glanced outside her window and figured out it was approaching three in the morning.

We still have two hours to prepare for the opening ceremony and the lighting of the Olympic flame that are supposed to happen at the break of dawn.

"I'll go change first." Kinuha ko ang isa sa mga chitons na nakasabit sa rack at dinala ito sa loob ng closet ni Reign.

Pagkatapos mai-lock ang pinto, inalis ko ang plastic cover mula sa damit ko na maingat ko ring inilatag sa ibabaw ng island table na nasa gitna ng closet.

Facing her large standing mirror, I took off my bathrobe and was in the middle of reviewing my tasks for today when I stepped into my chiton.

Actually, I don't have much to do today except remind the Omegas about their games...

Inangat ko ang top ng chiton at maayos na kinabit ang nag-iisang sleeveless strap nito sa balikat ko.

I also need to make sure that our athletes will already be in their fields thirty minutes before they play...

My hand wrapped around my waist as I tightened a gold belt around it. After hearing a click, I lowered my head in front of the mirror to loosen the edges of my top garment around my belt.

The ancient Greeks wore loose clothings and only folded it or used a belt to adjust it according to their bodies. Fortunately, we're not in ancient times and we don't require much of folding and tightening to fit our dresses. We also don't need to layer thick fabric after fabric like what they used to do. 

And speaking of fabrics...

Kinuha ko ang mahabang see-through fabric. Kasinghaba ito ng buong chiton ko.

The girls and I opted to buy our chitons from the same designer. They also came from the same collection called 'Flora', as the fabrics were colored in two different colors blended in ombré styles, such as that of flower petals.

Along with our dresses, they also gave us a matching belt and two armbands, as well as a piece of sheer fabric that we could layer on our chitons or use as a scarf. Basically, we decide how we could wear it.

Tinignan ko ang aking sarili sa salamin.

I wore a dark green chiton that transitioned into a darker blue as it reached towards the edges of my long skirt. The upper was only a one-shoulder top, and so I decided to wear both my golden armbands on the arm that didn't have a strap and a sleeve.
