AYESHA

The room felt silent for a while as my mouth fell open while looking at Ember. I can't believe that this person that LOOK LIKE A MAN, is a WOMAN all along!

I put my fingers on my temples trying to process what the hell is going on here! I recalled the lesbians in Korea that look like Ember. People that dress and acts like a man and they would also look like a man.

I do call them their most comfortable pronouns. But how should I call Ember? I think I should call this person which he/she most comfortable with. But I can't ask him/her about it since he/she is super rude.

"Milady." I snapped back to my senses nang tinawag ako ni Rave. I was so immersed into how to call this person! "S-Sorry." Ibinaba ko na ang paa ko sa carpet and the carpet was clean ang soft for my feet, saka inayos ang bangs ng wig ko para takpan ang mga mata ko.

They shouldn't know about my eye colors... I'm afraid that I will be called nasty things again... Not in this place.

Tumayo na ako saka inayos ang white night dress kong suot. I felt my undies still here so I felt a little bit of relief but who changed my outfit? I just heave a sigh, feeling uncomfortable from the thought of it. "Let's go - "

"Wait there." Naputol ang pagsasalita ko kasi pinapahinto kami ni Ember kaya napalingon kaming dalawa ni Rave sa kaniya galing sa likod. What is it now? He's so bossy.

Ember crossed his arms looking at me from head to toe, kaya napatingin din ako sa kaniya mula ulo hanggang paa. "I'll bring you there. I have to report something to his highness." Sabi nito kaya ipinikit ko ang mga mata ko sa inis. I can't even last a second to be with this person at all! We're like water and oil!

"Are you sure?" Tanong naman ni Rave kay Ember kaya napatingin ako nito. Please, please don't leave me alone with this rude guy!

"I should, I must keep a watch on this girl, so you go on ahead, your majesty." Mabilis akong napalingon kay Rave na nabukha ang bibig ko. I saw him covering his face in his palm, as if embarrassed by what just Ember called him. H-He's a Prince?!

"Ember, I told you not to call me that." He said then let out sigh, but Ember just stared at me yet again and ignored Rave. "We must go, hurry up and change something." Utos nito sa akin. This guy is getting on my nerves!

"Where's my uniform?" I asked, slightly irritated and he raised his brow at me.

"You're planning to wear your uniform to meet the King? Are you okay in there?" Tanong nito habang turo turo ang ulo nito, asking if I am still sane or not! My temper can't handle his attitude anymore so I glared at him.

"Then give me something to wear, think, stupid." Lumabas nalang sa bibig ko at kumunot naman ang noo nito, feeling irritated.

"Did you call me stupid just now?"

"You deaf? Wanna hear it again? Stupid?" Diin kong sabi nito na iritang irita na sa kaniya kaya bigla itong lumakad papalapit sa akin at lumapit din ako para hamonin ito. Is he gonna fight me?! Then go on!

Bigla nalang kaming hinarangan ni Rave sa gitna para pigilan kaming dalawa kaya napatras naman ako. "Woah now! Calm down!" Suway ni Rave sa aming dalawa pero nagtitigan kaming dalawa ni Ember na galit na galit.

Why the hell is this guy rude towards me? What did I ever do to him? "Why are you so rude to me? As far as I recall, this is the first time that I have ever seen you, so why act so disrespectful towards me?" Tanong ko nito sa kaniya. I need his answers or else I'll get out of this place.
