CHAPTER 20
The Vacation
~*~


HARRIET


          IF I have a power of controlling time, I would surely stop the time especially when I'm with him. And when the time continues, I will surely travel back to experience this kind of feeling again and again.

I looked up to the sky and watch the sky with stars. I am waiting when midnight comes to see the fireworks display. I sigh and look to him.

"Papasok na ako sa loob. Mamaya na lang…" paalam ko sa kaniya and I almost run to the entrance of the hall. Pagkapasok ko, I held my chest and I can feel the intense beat of my heart. I calm myself and I walk to the restroom.

Pagkapasok ko sa restroom, nakita ko na ako lamang ang nandoon. Pumasok ako sa isang cubicle at umupo sa nakasarang toilet bowl. Bakit ganu'n? I feel I am like a ticking bomb every time I am with him or I am near him. And every time he smile at me, I feel I am going to explode. Aish! Harriet, stop that! You are not here in these academy para lumandi! You are here because you want to study and learn. Yes! Yes, tama! I have to study hard and remove Clark on my mind and system.

I compose myself and I stand. I sigh and calm myself. Pipihitin ko na sana ang seradura ng pinto papalabas ng matigil ako. I hear someone's whispering or should I say talking.

"I don't know also…" I heard someone say. Sa tingin ko, she's a girl.

"But you said that—"

"Yeah. Sinabi ko na talagang nag-uusap sila or something pero hindi ko alam kung sila na." Sagot ng nauna sa kausap niya. Paniguradong babae rin ang kausap niya.

"Then, I still have a chance to steal him. Be ready…" hindi ko na narinig ang hiking sinabi ng kausap ng babae ng may mag-vibrate ang phone ko. Kinuha ko ito sa pouch ko at tiningnan kung sino. Alexa…

"Yes?" I whispered. Mukhang umalis na rin ang mga babaeng nag-uusap kanina.

"Why are you whispering, huh? Lumabas ka na dito at magsisimula na ang fireworks display. Everyone should watch it. At ang gwapo talaga ng prince! Pero meron na akong prince eh. Bye na!" She said and hang up. I rolled my eyes in frustration at lumabas na. Naghugas muna ako ng kamay at nag-retouch. Lumabas na rin ako pagkatapos at hinanap sila.

Inilibot ko ang paningin ko upang madali silang mahanap. Nakita ko sila malapit sa may entrance ng hall kaya lumapit na ako. Pero sa kasamaang-palad, someone held my wrist and drag me. Tiningnan ko kung sino ito but all I can see is his back.

Yep, lalaki. He had a broad back and firm muscles na halata sa katawan niya. Halos maliit siya ng kaunti kay Toffer na siyang pinakamalaki sa Elites. He is wearing a black tuxedo and pants.

Tumigil kami sa isang garden. It feels nostalgic. Ewan ko lang kung may sorpresa siya but I hope not. He look at me but I cannot see his face. His face is covered with black mask with silver designs.

"W-who are you?" I ask him. I stare at his eyes but he avoided it.

"You shouldn't know me. But I have to tell you something." He said but I couldn't hear his true voice.
