Heads of Houses

Aria Skye Falcon

I woke up when I realized na lumubog ang tabi ko dito sa kama. Umupo pala si Ate Aithne doon. Napalibot ang mata ko sa kabuuan ng kwarto, I still can't believe dad is spoiling us like this.

"You better get ready, breakfast is at 7:30, it's already 6:43." She notified me. I really need to work on my body clock.

I immediately jumped out of bed and made my way to the bathroom. The room was hot from the used water and it smelled like lavender, ate Aithne's favorite body wash.

Lumapit ako sa rack ng mga body wash at kinuha ang plum berry scent. I poured it into the water which Ate Aithne already prepared for me. She may be cold and expressionless but she is the most caring sister among the four of us.

Bumabad ako sa tubig at pumikit ng ilang minuto bago tuluyang naligo at lumabas sa bathroom. Nakita kong nakabihis na si Ate Aithne at may damit na nakahiga sa higaan ko. Tiningnan ko siya na nagbabasa ng libro tila walang pakialam sa mundo.

"Thanks." I told her even if she's not looking.

I grabbed the grey uniform and wore it.

I let my hair hang loose just like it always is, binuksan ko ang drawer malapit sa higaan ko at kinuha ang contacts ko.

I went back in the bathroom and wore my them, pagkalabas ko handa na ang lahat ng gamit ko, nasa higaan ko na ang bag ko kaya napatingin ako kay Ate Aithne, nagbabasa parin siya ng libro. Napailing nalang ako at napatawa ng mahina.

"You ready?" She asked.

"Yeah." I answered.

She placed her book back inside her bag and stood up. Nauna na siyang lumabas kaya ako na ang nag-lock ng pinto.

Nasa hallway pa lang kami ay makikita mo ang mga estudyanteng nagsilabasan sa kani-kanilang kwarto. Not like how it was empty yesterday. May ibang napatingin samin, maybe because they just saw us, ang iba naman ay walang pakealam.

Headmistress Genevive was right, everyone here is silent, intimidating and they have serious expressions plastered on their faces as it it was their second skin.

But we don't get intimidated easily.

There was only one time when we were intimidated by one person. And that was when we met dad at the age of seven.

Pumasok na kami sa breakfast hall ng house at umupo sa isang table sa dulo. We don't need to approach the counter dahil may screen sa tabi ng lamesa na kukuha ng order niyo, once you punch in your order the lunch-lady will bring your food to you.
