Noreen's POV

Speed. Speed. My heart is thumping, muscles cramping, head throbbing, eyes blurring pero malapit na ako sa guild, Hinahalikan na ng araw ang balat ko at ramdam ko na mamamatay na ako, Pero malapit na ako.

"Ri..." Sabi ko, hinihingal hingal pa. "Shh!" Said the gatekeeper dapat kasi whisper lang. "Ri....zal" I whispered almost breathless, At dahil nandito na ako, Naglakad nalang ako papunta sa last room, where Aries is.

"Andito....na...ako! whoo" Sabi ko.

" You look horrible" Sabi ni Lisa, who was eating a sandwich.

"Pagkain!" Sabi ko, sabay agaw sa pagkain ni Lisa.

" Galing ka ba sa sahara desert? or ginahasa ka?" Tanong ni Lisa. " At amoy beer ka, Saan la galing na babaita ka ha?" She asked.

"Sa bahay" Sabi ko, feeling a little guilt i argued with myself whether ir whether not I should tell the truth.

" You weren't there..." Lisa looking at me suspiciously. "Galing kami doon ni Aries kasi nag aalala kami, you weren't answering our calls" Sabi nya.

"Well, the truth is...Shut up lang kayo, nasaan si Aries?" Sabi ko.

"Sabihin mo muna saakin bago ko sabihin sayo kung nasaan si Aries!" Sabi nya.

"Okay, This is actually good and bad news. Good news is, nalasing ako pero ligtas ako with the companionship of Ezekiel Yang-" Sabi ko.

" OH MY GOD!" Napasigaw sya, I shushed her and went on. "Tapos, I woke up in his room unharmed and untouched which leads to my bad news, na wala ako masusulat sa kanya cause there's nothing bad about him and there's nothing to write so why don't we leave him alone?" Sabi ko.

" He is so...charming" Lisa said with googly eyes. " what is he like ?" Tanong nya.

What is he like? " Mabait, mysterious...Smart, caring and very surprisingly skilled at things like the claw machine, Kinda like a Kuya" Sabi ko.

" More like kinda like a boyfriend to me" She teased me.

" No , How about...no" Sabi ko.

"Hey, ladies!" Sabi ni Aries.

"ARIES!' sabi ko.

" Ikaw ha? Saan ka galing? Bakit mukha kang hinabol? " Tanong nya saakin.

" Si Lisa nalang magkwento sayo, nahihilo na ako, bakit mo nga ulit ako kailangan?" Sabi ko.

" I happen to have a special assignment for you, And as one of the guild leaders I volunteered you as a representative from my team to the battle for the promotion of level 5, It is the very first Inter school Quiz bee competition for the College of Nursing and Health Sciences" Sabi ni Aries.

" You mean? Writing a good article about it will promote me?" Sabi ko.

" Yes, sinasabi ko sayo, This is your moment so don't waste it, the promotion is right at your doorstep" Sabi ni Aries, I was calm at first but then my senses heightened, si Lisa naman sa tabi ko excited at kinikilig tuloy nahawa na ako, we were shrieking and hugging and we stood up jumping, Energy is overflowing in our bodies. "Kaya pumunta ka na kay Shalom at mag register" Sabi ni Aries.

Sa sobrang excited ko nawala na gutom ko napalitan na ng butterflies at grabe na pawis ko, I was smiling like an insane person as I was brisk walking to Shalom's desk. Hindi ko alam anong nararamdaman ko, anxiety, fear, excitement, joy and dread. Either way, I was determined, I am going to get that promotion and nothing's gonna get in my way.
