Chapter 56: Mind Maze (Part 1)

Hindi ko alam kung ano ang dapat kong maramdaman. Should I feel alarmed because of what they said? I took a deep breath and kept my phone in my pocket. Hindi naman sa iniignora ko ang sinabi ni Cooler at Zywon but I don't think it will really happen. There's a 50% probability na pwede ngang may mangyaring masama but they can't be sure about it. Maybe I should think of Law of Attraction. Dapat wag kong isipin ang mga bagay na iyon, I might attract danger if I keep on thinking about it.

Nang makababa na kami ng taxi ay hinatid nila kami sa dorm ng mga babae. Gray walked behind on purpose upang makausap ako na malayo kay Math and Jeremy.

"Amber, anong sabi ni Cooler?", he asked. He's carrying his backpack comfortably. I'm sure he's as tired as me but he still has more energy than me. Maybe I lost my remaining energy after reading Zy's text message.

"He got a feeling that something bad will happen."

"And?"

"That's all."

"Just stay at-"

"What now? You also want me to stay at the dorm? Tell me Gray, what do you think will happen?", I asked. Nagtataka ako bakit ganito sila sa akin. Why do they care for me that much?

"I have no idea but to be sure, just stay there. Don't do anything stupid", wika niya. His pokerface is boring through me. Why do I have this feeling na kapag ibang babae ang kausap ni Gray ay tila alerto ito while he seems bored when he's talking to me?

"Hindi ko kayo guardian so stop telling me what to do", wika ko sa kanya. I know that it's rude but my bratty side is on and I'm not in my best mood.

"And stop your bratty attitude", wika niya. Why does he sound like he doesn't care or it's just me?

"Wala kang pakialam."

"Amber."

"Yeah, I know that's my name", wika ko. I walked ahead of him and refused to look at him. Naiinis pa rin ako and I have no idea why I am feeling this way.
I can hear his sigh at ilang saglit lamang ay naramdaman ko ang kamay niya na nakaakbay sa balikat ko. He rests his chin on my head as we walk.

"Bakit galit ang mahal na prinsesa?", he asked.

Mahal na Prinsesa, huh? It's been a long time since I heard those words from him. Yup, I used to be his "Mahal na Prinsesa."

I tried removing his arm around me but he's too strong to let go. "Wag ka ngang umakbay sa akin, baka isipin pa ng mga estudyante na boyfriend kita."

May mga iilan kasing estudyante sa paligid. Some are on the ground playing ball games, others are dating on the side benches at may mga nagbabasa din.

"Mabuti. Then they will distance theirselves from you. Or atleast the guys will", he said. Kahit hindi ko nakikita ang mukha niya ay alam kong nakangiti ito.

Uh, this guy is really unpredictable. At one point, he'll be throwing glares at you, then he'll talk with other girls totally ignoring you, then he'll be sweet again.

Just what kind of guy really is Gray Ivan Silvan?

Hinayaan ko na lamang siya sa ginagawa niya. We look silly in such position while walking with his arms on my shoulders, the other on my waist and his chin on my head. To put it simply, he's clinging on me by hugging me from the back as we walk.

Saka lamang siya bumitaw sa akin nang makarating kami sa gate ng Girls' dormitory. Both Math and Je are giving us their "I-Know-What-You-Did" look but we just ignored them at nagtuloy sa mga kwarto namin matapos magpasalamat sa kanila.
