The nervousness immediately crept through my body, and the fact that they were not human added to my nervousness.
Lexus noticed my nervousness so he gently held my hand and squeezed it lightly, for some unknown reason my nervousness decreased because of that.
We started walking again, when we got down we walked on the red carpet to the front, while walking I could not help being confused and nervous because they followed us, whenever Lexus noticed that I was uncomfortable he squeezed my hand softly.
While walking I suddenly remembered maeve, I immediately looked for her but I could not find her.
I didn't notice that we were in front, I was asked to go up to the small stage of Lexus so that he could support me better.
When Lexus and I got up we stood in the middle, I could see more people and almost all of them were looking at me with admiration on their faces.
They were all smiling at me but I didn't know why I was nervous, because I knew they weren't human, but I'm not human either, because if I were human I wouldn't be here today.
My eye caught Maeve while talking to Axel they were on the side so I didn't see them before when I was still on the stairs.
Someone came up to us to give us a drink, it was red so I didn't take it because I knew what it was.
Lexus noticed that I didn't take it so he whispered to the person carrying the drink.
It went down and soon after it came back holding this wine now, I looked at Lexus to ask if I would take it, he just nodded at me, I took the wine and faced the front again.
Lexus raised his drink as well as the guests, I just raised mine because I didn't know what to do, he drank here as well as the guests so I drank too, after drinking suddenly a piano played, it seemed to be signal the drinking of wine to begin the celebration.
Someone came to the front to dance, while Lexus and I sat in the chair on the side of the stage.
We just sat there and watched the dancers until he suddenly spoke.
"You wanna dance?" He suddenly asked
I turned to him because of what he said, he was looking at me and waiting for my answer.
"Huh?" I asked
"I said you wanna dance?" He asked again
"No, thanks" I said
"Okay let's dance" He said and pulled me to the center so we could dance there, the dancers left and everyone's attention shifted to us.
"What the hell, I don't know how to dance!" I said softly to him but I knew he heard that.
He took my right hand and placed it on his shoulder, he put his right hand on my waist and pulled my waist closer to him.
He took my hand and wrapped our fingers, we are holding hands now, my heartbeat suddenly quickened as if it wanted to get out of my chest, I looked at the hand we were holding and turned to look at him, he was staring at me as if he wanted to memorize every part of my face.
"I-i cant dance" I said while still looking into his eyes.
He just smiled at me and I got closer to him, I felt very ashamed and my heart beat faster.
After a while the piano and violin suddenly started playing, I don't know why but I like what's happening.
He started moving, I just followed his every move because I don't really know how to dance.
I stopped when I suddenly stepped on his foot, very embarrassing but he didn't seem to care, He danced me again.
When the music ended I immediately walked back to the center, but I was stopped by someone who bumped into me and threw the drink she was holding on my clothes.
Everyone stopped and their attention shifted to me again, I was surprised when the woman who bumped into me suddenly knelt down, based on her appearance she looked rich.
"Forgive me my lady" she said while crying so hard
Wait, did she call me my lady?, What the hell
"She should be punish!"
"Yeah she ruined the party!"
Maraming nagalit sa babae dahil sa nagawa nito halos lahat ay gusto itong maparusahan pero parang sobra naman, pwede naman akong magpalit ng damit, hindi naman big deal saakin ang matapunan ng inumin sa damit, tsaka kasalanan ko din kasi nagmamadali ako.
"N-no it's fine, pwede naman ako magpalit ng damit" Sabi ko
Natahimik ang lahat dahil sa sinabi ko, tumingin sila saakin at parang hindi makapaniwala sa sinabi ko.
"Tumayo ka diyan" Sabi ko sa babae, tumingin siya saakin
Dahan dahan siyang tumayo habang nakayuko, hindi parin makapaniwala ang mga nasapaligid ko, para bang gumawa ako ng isang malaking milagro.
Biglang dumating sa gilid ko si Lexus kasama sila Eleena
"Let's go" Sabi niya tsaka hinawakan ang kamay ko at hinila
Nang makarating kami sa kwarto ko ay agad pumasok si Eleena sa kabilang kwarto para kunin ang pamalit ko.
"Hindi mo dapat ginawa yun" biglang Sabi ni Lexus, napatingin naman ako sakanya
"Ano?" Tanong ko
"Hinayaan mo nalang dapat sila na parusahan siya" sagot niya
" At bakit ko gagawin yun!" Inis na tanong ko sa kanya
"Magiging kahinaan mo ang kabaitan mo" mahinahong sagot niya
"Hindi ako mabait, ginawa ko yun dahil yun ang tama!" Galit na sigaw ko sakanya
"Mali na tinapunan ka niya ng inumin" sagot niya
"Natapunan!, Natapunan niya ako dahil nagmamadali ako hindi ko napansin na dadaan siya kaya nagkabungguan kami at natapunan niya ako" pagtatama ko sakanya
"Kahit pa! Iisipin ng lahat na dahil mabait ka ay pwede kana nilang abusuhin" medyo tumataas na din ang boses niya
"Look, ginawa ko yun dahil yun yung sa tingin kong Tama, kung Mali yun sa paningin mo o sa piningin nila ay wala na akong pake" sagot ko sa kanya, pilit kong pinapahinahon ang sarili ko.
"At isa pa, hindi ako Tanga para maabuso nila" dagdag ko
Hindi na siya sumagot dahil alam niyang hindi rin siya mananalo, Maya maya ay dumating na si Eleena at sinabing kaylangan ko ng magpalit.
