The Return (On-Going)

CHAPTER 6

"You'll have a dormmate." Celina said as she opened the notes on her table. "I'll give you the map later after we're done." She added as she continued to look at her notes.

"Can I have my own room? I don't want to be with someone I don't even know, and I don't want to be friends with them." I replied and she glanced at me.

"No, you'll have a dormmate." As I expected.

"Here this is your key." Tiningnan ko si Celina at may sinummon siya na susi sa kanyang kamay tsaka ipinalutang ito patungo sa harapan ko. "Enjoy your daily life with your dormmate." She smiled as if she was teasing me.

Ayaw ko makipagkaibigan sa iba at wala akong balak. Gusto ko na lang mag-isa. Bago ko tanggapin ang offer ni Celina ay inaasahan ko na ang masasamang trato sa akin ng magiging kaklase ko at iba pang estudiyante dito.

"Actually we will have an event next week. Make sure you'll attend or else I will lock you up." I rolled my eyes at her. "You really hate socializing huh? Well you will not anymore once you step in the school grounds." She said before she stood up.

"It is none of your business."

"This is the map of this school." She summoned something in her hands and I thought it was a map but a box.

"What is that?" I asked when she controlled the box and put it in front of me. I immediately caught the box when she stopped controlling it in the air.

"Yes, it is a map and your uniform." She answered and walked closer to me. "Don't worry about your clothes. I've provided you already." She smiled at me.

"Should I thank you?"

"Well it's up to you."

"How old are you?" I asked suddenly. Nakita ko sa mukha niya na medyo nagulat siya sa aking tanong.

"Are you mocking me?"

"No, you look like young but the way you talk sounds like you're pretty mature." I replied.

"Of course I am still in my 20s! Well closer to the 30 but not gonna tell you."

"Oh we're same."

"What? You already closer in 30?"

"Of course not. I am still 20." Pagtatama ko sa sinabi niya.

"It's impossible for you to be in the same age of me. You're pretty young." She gave me a sweet smile and looked at me in the eyes. "You have a nice eyes. Whenever I'm looking at yours, feels like I am in the ocean. But I know your eyes symbolyzing your blue flame."

"Can you enchant and change my eye color?" Napakunot ang kanyang noo sa sinabi ko.

"Why? You don't want anyone to see your beautiful eyes?" She asked.

"Well actually if you couldn't change the color of my eyes then just hide the mark on my face." I replied. My mark was in the right side of my face and it wasn't an ordinary mark, but a dragon's mark.

"If you say so." Celina smiled at me before she walked closer to me and put her left palm in my right cheek. She closed her eyes and whispered something that I can't hear, and then suddenly her palm was glowing for a second.
