MORTA OF IMPERIAL HOUSE

Special Chapter

TRENTON RHYS VELZAIMORE-AISLEZAN
SIDE STORY

TRENTON'S POV

When I turned 6, my mother and father decided to build a school that can help children to grow and learn how to control magic properly.

They named it as 'Imperial Academy' 

I honestly don't want to go to academy because it is a dormitory academy and I am already a genius.

When I turned 18, my mother forced me to enter in the Imperial Academy. I really hated the fact that I am surrounded by a bunch of fetus.

Days past. Everything was peaceful, no one is bothering me and even the teacher's are not paying attention to me. I like it that way.

However, I really don't like the stares of the girls around me. I really don't get them. I feel like there's something on my face. I did my best to ignore them because it's annoying and irritating.

Then one afternoon, I was sleeping in an empty room. I am sure that no one is using this room but then I was alarmed when someone entered. My brows furrowed because of the girl who's sitting not far away from me.

I think she heard a sound because her head turned this way. Her eyes widened because of surprise.

She said something but I didn't heard her. I feel like the time between us stopped. She's beautiful. I can't take my eyes off of her.

I want to ask her name but I was to dumbfounded. Then suddenly, without me knowing, a bunch of flowers started to grow inside this room. From floor to ceiling..

HER'S POV

Mabigat ang loob ko habang naglalakad patungo sa isang classroom na hindi naman ginagamit. Kailangan ko iyong linisin dahil iyon ang parusang ibinigay sa akin sa pagiging late.

Hindi ako makapaniwala na dahil lang don ay paglilinisin ako ng isang buong classroom. Akala naman nila ay gagawin ko.

Nang makapasok ako ay humanap lang ako ng mauupuan. Hindi ko ito lilinisin, hindi rin naman ito ginagamit kaya magdudumi rin paglipas ng araw.

Nakarinig ako ng kalampag kaya naman napalingon ako dito. Halos matigilan ako dahil sa kaniyang kagwapuhang taglay.

"Kanina ka pa dyan? Hindi ko alam na may tao pala" saad ko sa kaniya. Hindi naman ito nagsalita at nakatitig lang sa akin..

Napalunok naman ako dahil nagsisimula ng uminit ang aking pisnge dahil sa kaniyang pagtitig. Hindi ko din mabasa ang expression nito. Blanko lang siyang nakatingin sa akin.

May ginawa ba akong hindi maganda?

Pero kung tititigan mo siya, iba talaga ang kagwapuhan niya. Mas lalong nakakaakit kapag matagal mong tiningnan.

Nagulat naman ako dahil sa mga bulaklak na biglang tumubo sa aming paligid. Napaangat ang paa ko sa takot na baka matapakan ko ang isang magandang bulaklak. May iba't ibang kulay iyon.

Halos mamangha ako sa pagbabago ng silid na ito. Sa isang iglap lang ay parang naging isang garden ang lugar na ito.

"It's beautiful" nakangiting saad ko habang pinagmamasdan ang mga bulaklak na may iba't ibang kulay..

"Indeed" usal ng lalaki kaya naman muli akong napalingon dito.

Muling nagtama ang tingin naming dalawa. Ngunit nagulat ako ng bigla itong mawala sa harap ko. Napangiti naman ako dahil hindi nakalampas sa akin ang pamumula ng kaniyang pisnge at tenga.

"How cute"
