Her eyes are glimmering under the moonlight. The gentle breeze caressed my face on this tranquil night. The peculiar maiden sat on the rock in front of me with her stoic demeanor. I'm still stunned by what I saw.

I can't believe it's effective when I called her by that name, meeting her again face to face.

Zenrie-chan was right. Her demeanor is quite intimidating. Epektibo nga ang sinabi niyang ritual na galing sa nobelang binabasa niya’t naikuwento ng mama niya.

She's really majestic.

“Anong sadya mo’t ako ay tinawag?” I snapped back to reality when I heard her neutral voice. Agad akong napatingin sa kanya’t parang umurong pa ang dila ko. And it seems she's a bit formal.

“Well…uhm…”

“Kung tinawag mo lang ako para lang sa walang kabuluhang dahilan, wala na akong dahilan upang manatili rito,” saad niya’t nagpatuloy, “May misyon pa akong atupagin. Ayokong masayang ang oras ko sa wala.”

Just as she's about to stand, I immediately spill out a word.

“Sandali…” paunang usal ko, “...sa totoo lang, may tanong talaga ako. At…”

“At ano?”

“Kailangan ko ang tulong mo, Blue-eyed Maiden,” I finally said what I have to. “It's about…my dream.”

She took a pause with a light sigh. Her piercing sapphire blue eyes with a pair of diamond-slit pupils, locked against mine. The usual cold and stoic stares are present.

Makikinig ako,” aniya’t bumaba. She even lean behind the rock and crossed her arms.

Looking and observing her demeanor concludes that she's a type of a lady that everyone doesn't want to mess up with. Even that sharp cold stare says it all.

“May panaginip ako tungkol sa puting paruparo. I even heard my little sister's voice calling me. And…a silhouette similar to yours appeared as I was swallowed by a strange light,” I stated and sighed. “Alam mo ba kung ano ang ibig sabihin nito?”

Her brows started to narrow, darting that stoic gaze towards me. That gradient hair glistened under the moonlight just like her sapphire eyes. I snapped back to reality when she stood properly and took some steps towards me.

She went closer to me, making my eyes widened in surprise. Then, her index finger sticks on my forehead as she closes her eyes.

“So…she can interpret dreams?” I asked while Zenrie-chan was writing on the terrace. She also got her sword done.
