Alaine POV

"Fuck!" He cursed as I cut some strands of his hair.

Mas mukha pa siyang galit sa nagawa ko kaysa kaninang nadaplisan ko ang braso niya. Kasalukuyan pa ngang tumutulo ang dugo mula rito. Well, he loves his long hair so much.

I smirk. He glared at me as his attacked become more aggressive. Mukhang seseryosohin na niya ang laban.

I leapt backwards while countering his attack. He grinned when he almost slashed my thigh.

Our movements, in every way, resemble fusing with the wind. The sound of the blades clashing is enchanting to me, just like the breeze of the wind.

I need to finish this. I'm getting tired. I haven't really been in good shape, and that's my disadvantage. If I let this fight go on longer, I will be exhausted and will definitely lose.

"You lost." I said as I pointed my katana at his chest. He fell down because he didn't expect my sudden attack.

He smirked and raised his hand, accepting his defeat. Then he wiped away his sweat. He asked one of our maids to bring us water and a towel.

I moved my katana away from him and sat down next to him.

Ramdam ko ang pagod sa paghingal. Ilang minuto lamang iyon. Nakaka-disappoint na ganoon kaagad ang reaksyon ng katawan ko.

I'm still really weak. But I'm happy that I win against him.

"You're lucky my wrist hurt if not I will definitely win." I rolled my eyes.

"Reasons. Alam ko, natalo talaga kita."

Pinanood ko siya habang tinatalian ang braso niyang nasugatan ko kanina. Nang makitang nahihirapan siya ay ako na ang nagtali.

Maybe it's true that his wrist hurts, but still, I will not accept this reason for his losing.

"Yeah, your good but definitely you need to work out your cardio. You can't survived a long fight, Prinsesitha."

Napabuntong-hininga ako. "I know."

"Pero kung hindi mo pa kaya. Hindi mo pwedeng pwersahin ang sarili mo. Let your body heal first then slowly you will gain your pace."

"Yeah, I know but it's really frustrating."

"Just be patient, Prinsesitha." Ginulo niya ang buhok ko. Mabilis ko namang tinanggal ang kamay niya. Ayaw ko talagang ginugulo niya ang buhok ko.

"I really need to be stronger. I can't wait for the time to take my revenge to those people who made me like this."

Tumaas ang kilay niya at ngumisi.

"I'm looking forward for that. Your revenge should be painful."

Nanatili pa kami nang ilang minuto bago pumasok na sa mansion para makapagpahinga.

Naabutan pa naming paalis ang lalaking bisita ni Ate. Mabilis itong yumuko bilang paggalang sa amin.

May makapal itong harang sa mukha kaya ni hindi ko makita ang mukha niya. Sinundan ko ito ng tingin.
