The Time Holder(completed)

Chapter Thirty-two: invited

Cath's POV:

I can't imagine that--- Ang ingay nila!. Napatingin ako kay Ira na tahimik lang sa isang tabi. Tumayo ako at pumunta sa pwesto nya, umupo ako sa tabi nya dahil wala namang nakaupo. Tumikhim ako para lang makuha ang atensyon nya.

"Ira, ang ingay nila noh?"-tanong ko. Tumingin sya sakin . Ngumiti sya tapos biglang tumingin sa ibang direksyon . Napakunot noo ako. Maingay ang mga kaklase ko dahil hindi pumasok si Ma'am this first period then sa next period vacant ang subject namin. Hindi ko nalang kinausap si Ira dahil parang wala sya sa mood ngayon. Tumayo na ako at bumalik sa pwesto ko. Tinignan ko ang lahat ng kaklase ko. Teka? nasaan sila Semn, Lim at...kell?

Hindi ko na natiis pa at lumapit ulit kay Ira para magtanong. Umupo ako sa tabi nya at humarap sa kanya. Tinignan ko muna sya . Bigla ay bumuntong hininga sya.

"What's with that sigh Ira?"-i asked and I think i got her attention because of my question. She looked at me and sigh.

"I don't know Cath"-she said and sigh again. Napa facepalm nalang ako dahil nakakailang buntong hininga na sya. I know her, and first of all she's my friend even if we first met in this school year.

"spill it Ira, i know , you need to say that to me."-sabi ko. She sigh again. She was about to speak when I raise my right hand to stop her.

"please Ira, nakakailang buntong hininga ka na baka mamaya marami ng hangin dyan sa tiyan mo"-sabi ko. She just nooded what i say and then she started to speak.

"Cath i know you know me because of what you saw a long time ago right?"-tanong nya at tumingin sa paligid. She looked at me directly to my eyes.

"This is not the right place to talk about it , so i think we need to leave this classroom for a while, Cath"-she said. Tumango ako at tumayo na. Tumingin ako sa wrist watch ko na maayos parin hanggang ngayon at naalala ko na minsan ko na nga pala magamit ang kakayahan ko. My birthday is nextweek and i can't feel the excitement but nervous all the time , I don't know but that is what i feel when i thinking about that my birthday is nearer. We still have 1hr and 20 minutes to talk.

When we finally reach the place that she wanted. She started to speak.

"Cath, please think twice and be serious i don't know if they will accept you if you enter in our place pero buti nalang na mas--"

"Ano? 'our' , anong ibig mong sabihin Ira?"-tanong ko.

"*sigh* please let me talk first and hindi ikaw ang nagsasalita dito kaya hindi ka kinakabahan. I don't know what is your decision but you are invited in masquerade ball"-sabi nya. Mahabang katahimikan ang dumaan samin tanging huni ng mga ibon ang maririnig at hangin.

"what?"

"Cath! sorry but that is what i talking about hehe"-sabi nya tsaka sya tumungo.

"n-no don't be sorry. But why?"-i asked. She looked at me then she shrug.

"i don't know Cath. But when i went to my place i saw this invitation---"-sabi nya at may kinuha sya sa bulsa nya at binigay sya sakin. Binuksan ko ang envelope na kulay gold.

"---and i read it, but to my surprise i saw your name too.. that you are invited to the Magical Ball"-dagdag nya. I readed what is written in invitation.

'Catherine Zafina Maye and Princess Ira Earthia, you are invited in Magical Ball today after  tomorrow night at 7:00 pm'.

Gladly if you'll come..

I looked Ira to see what her reaction. Tumango-tango ako. I smiled. They inviting me . I don't but i feel excited on the thought that i can walk in that place where my friends are born.

"Yes, bakit naman ako di papayag. If you are invited and you are inviting you should come and attend that place , right Ira?"-i gladly said . She smiled too and hug me.

"finally you can meet the place that you are born Zafina..."- she said. I broke the our hug and i look Ira, deeply. Kunot noo nya din akong tinignan. I shook my head and said.

"nothing"-i said while looking at her....

Third Person's POV:

"is the all invitation are sent?"-tanong ng isang babae.

"yes Madam"-sagot nila habang nag aayos ng mga lamesa.

"Madam actually not. I didn't send the invitation for Princess Ira , naubusan na po kasi ng Gold Envelope at ng papel na ang makababasa lang ay ang mga taga fantasia"-sagot ng isa. Tumango ang babae . May isang babae na lumabas at may kinuha na gold envelope sa kanyang bulsa may kinuha syang lighter . Hiniwalay nya ang gold na envelope at ang papel ang kanyang sinindihan . Unti-unti nilamon ng apoy ang papel habang nakasulat dito ang...

'Princess Ira Earthia, you are invited in Magical Ball today after tomorrow night at 7:00 pm'

Gladly if you'll come

Nang matapos ng babae ang kailangan gawin ay iniwan nya ang papel na naging abo na. Naglakad ang babae papunta sa gitna ng gubat. Napapikit ang babae at bumuntong hininga, sya ay dumilat at pinagpatuloy ang paglalakad. Napahinto sya ng makita nya ang isang bahay sa gitnang gubat. Naglakad sya papalapit sa bahay na iyon . Pumasok sya sa loob. Nakita nya ang isang babae na nakaupo habang nakatingin sa isang larawan ng pamilya.

"Sof "-tawag pansin nya sa babaeng nakatingin sa larawan. Napatingin naman ang babae na nagngangalang Sof

"you think, she'll come?"-tanong ni Sof. Imbis na sya ay sagutin nito iba ang sinagot ng babae .

"I hope you'll come Cath..."
