VII - Pink Diamond
Ellie's POV
We are currently preparing for Lady Aislinn's meeting. Yesterday, she stated that we're gonna have a little discussion about ourselves which is pretty interesting. Finally.
I'm wearing a knee-length short black cocktail dress and silver glitter sleeked heel sandals. This is what I got earlier, it has a tag with my name on it.
Inaantok pa ako ng kaunti pero gumising ako ng maaga para dito. Dahil nga excited ako.
"Y'all ready?" Soleil asked.
"Uh-huh. Let's go!" Casey said with a happy smile on her face that make her look so excited. I mean, who's not gonna be happy?
About the chocolates that I received yesterday evening, nilagay ko lang sa refrigerator it is because I'm allergic, but they're Soleil's favorite. Not me tho.
I wonder who sent them. It's impossible na yung lalaki na nakita ko yesterday yung nagbigay no'n, dahil halatang hindi niya ako type.
Oh gosh, not gonna think of it anymore, mas lalong sumasakit yung ulo ko. Masakit na nga yung paa ko dahil sa heels dadagdagan pa.
Lumabas na kami ng dorm at tinungo ang opisina ni Lady Aislinn.
All girls na makakasalubong mo, each of them has one beautiful tiara with a big diamond. I wonder kung bakit sila may ganiyan at para saan 'yan. And, I love the design of it.
Not gonna lie but yes, they has a good taste in fashion. I don't know but, I'm really inlove with dresses, shoes, heels, makeups and other girly things. They're my first love.
Nauunang maglakad si Finley na sinundan naman ni Harro at Maitland. Kaming tatlong babae ay nasa likuran.
Ewan ko ba diyan kay Finley. Paggising ko, binati ko sila ng good morning at gano'n din ang ginawa nila pero itong isa hindi man lang ako pinansin.
Mga dalaw siguro. Init ng ulo palagi.
We arrived at Lady Aislinn's office. Harro knocked.
Lady Aislinn opened the door and welcomed us. "Oh Maiors you're here. I'm not expecting you to come this early in the morning. Come in."
Pumasok na kami sa loob ng office niya which is expected na sobrang bongga. It has chocolate brown glossy...I think it's a porcelain tiles? A classy chandelier light, and furnitures.
"Where should we begin? Ah, okay alam ko na." she paused. "This place is called Palais Des Demi-Dieux, a french language word which means 'Demigod's Palace'. There are three division of demigods here. Maiors, minors, and hunters of Artemis." she explained.
"But, Anna and Emma are not demigods, right?" Soleil asked innocently.
"Let me finish first. Hunters of Artemis are NOT demigod but they're demigod's siblings who passed away. They are mortals unlike you. When their siblings died, They had to swear their loyalty to Artemis and in turn, Artemis would grant them immortality. That is why they can see everything." ayun nga din yung sinabi sa'kin ni Emma na namatay yung brother nita because of hit and run.
"Minors. They are the son/daughter of Minor Gods and Goddesses. There are more than 400 minor gods but some of them doesn't have children." andami naman. Kaya siguro napakalaki ng palasyo na 'to. "Maiors, it's you. You're the son/daughter of Major God and Goddesses on Mount Olympus. You ar--"
"As in Zeus or Aphrodite or Poseidon?? Anak nila kami?! Really?" sabat ni Maitland.
"That's correct. Do you wanna know who your deity is?" deity?? Malalaman na ba namin kung sino yung god parent namin? Na-eexcite na'ko!!
She moved her hands towards the shelf and you know what happened? The book is floating habang papunta sa kamay niya. Wow.
I hope, meron din akong ganyan ability, ang cool.
She opened the book and read something. The book is thick and I think lahat ng name ng demigod ay nakalista d'yan.
"Harro Beischel, son of Zeus and Amanda Beischel." wooowww. As in WOW! Akalain mo 'yon? Harro, my friend, son of Mount Olympus' King, Zeus.
THIS IS TOTALLY INSANE.
"Maitland Morroco, son of Poseidon and Jessica Morroco" wow ulit.
"Yes! Sabi ko na e, sa gwapo kong 'to! Yown" sabi ni Maitland na may pa-fist pump pa sa hangin, jusko.
"Finley Huxley, son of Hades and Brittany Huxley" no words. I'm speechless. Totally speechless. Naiwang nakabukas ang bibig ko dahil hindi ako makapaniwala sa narinig ko.
These idiot are sons of the three most powerful gods among the olympian.
"Totoo ba 'tong narinig ko? The three of you..." turo ni Soleil kina Finley, Maitland at Harro. "Oh my god."
I saw Lady Aislinn smiling. I mean, sinong hindi matatawa sa'min e mukha kaming tanga dito.
"It's your turn, girls" geez, eto naaa!!!
"Casey Dalton, daughter of Hestia and David Dalton" o to the m to the g, OMG.
"Soleil Zacharia, daughter of Athena and Aquilla Zacharia." this time napatayo na talaga ako.
Ang cool.
I held Soleil's hands and we start to jump like a kid. She's so happy, you can clearly see it on her eyes.
"I don't know...I don't know what to react." this time, her tears starts falling down. "I'm being emotional. I'm too happy." I hugged her. I know, I know the feeling kapag nalaman mo na kung sino yung magulang mo. They keep the truth from us for years and now...
Bumalik na kami sa kinauupuan namin and Soleil, she's still crying. Tears of joy you know.
"Ellie Johannessen and..." she stops. Anong problema?
"Ellie, are you sure that you don't have a twin sister?" what is she talking about? Syempre wala.
"Wala po. Only child lang po ako. Lumaki po ako kasama Papa, kami lang pong dalawa" I said. Pinangarap ko lang magkaroon ng kapatid pero never nagkatotoo 'yon.
"Nevermind. Ellie Johannessen, daughter of Aphrodite and Hector Johannessen." yung excitement ko nawala. Yes, I'm happy na si Aphrodite yung mother ko pero baka hindi lang ako nag-iisang anak? Gaano ba kadami ang tinatago ni Papa sa'kin?
"Ellie, aren't you happy?" Casey asked me.
"I'm happy naman." I gave her a smile. "Can I go to the restroom?" sabi ko kay Lady Aislinn and she agreed naman.
Hindi naman talaga ako naiihi or what, gusto ko lang talaga mapag-isa.

Aislinn's POV
"You can go back to your dorm. We'll send your uniform tomorrow for your training. Good luck!" I said with a smile on my face.
I'm so grateful to get these demigods from those Empousa. I thought they gonna die too like the first batch of Maiors.
Someone knocked the door. It's Ellie.
"Bumalik na po pala sila? Sige po, balik na po ako." she stated.
"No. Stay here, I have something to tell you." she has this calm aura that will make you relax but on the other side, you'll feel a dark shadow behind her.
I don't see any weakness of her from head-to-toe which is surprisingly.
"Have you notice something with the female demigods?" I asked her.
"Opo. Each of them has a tiara po." yes. She's indeed an Aphrodite's child.
"Do you know what's the meaning behind those shiny diamonds?" umiling siya, which means she doesn't know. "It represents their deity. For your case, I'll be giving this to you." I carefully pull the last but not the least tiara. "This pink diamond represents love and your mother Aphrodite. It really suits you." after I put the tiara on her head, the diamond starts to shine brightly and in a blink, her physical appearance changed.
From black short hair to long, wavy pastel pink hair. Nagkaroon din siya ng light makeup which is permanent.
"Ohmygodness." she said while checking her body. "Ako po ba 'to? Waaaaaa ang ganda ko!" yes, you're beautiful like the stars in the sky.
"Your fellow members did that too, go check it" she excitedly leaves the office. She's too cute and pure.
But, meron talagang bagay sa kanya na hindi ako mapakali. I feel so much power from her but I know it's not Aphrodite's.
I should keep my eye on her.
....
Casey's POV
I changed a lot. From brown eyes to warm orange color. I had brown medium length hair with blonde highlights. I can't believe what I'm seeing on the mirror. I can't believe it's me.
Soleil. She has a yellow diamond at her tiara. Her hair changed from black to blonde which suits her well.
I don't know what happened to Ellie earlier. Hindi pa siya bumabalik that makes me worried.
"Casey, what do you think will happen tomorrow at training?" Soleil asked me as if I know what will happen.
"There will be swords? Bunch of swords?" yow, I'm talking nonsense here.
Someone entered our dorm. A pink haired girl. Is she trespassing?
But when she turned her head, pakiramdam ko ay tumigil ang mundo. She's...so beautiful, no no no, the word 'beautiful' is not enough to describe her.
I can't...uhh.
"Hi? Baka tumulo na 'yung mga laway niyo no?" we didn't answer her. Parang napako na ang mga mata namin sa kanya.
I never met a beautiful girl like her in my entire life.
"It feels like, she's not Ellie, right?" Soleil said and I nodded my head.
Well, what should we expect from the daughter of Aphrodite? Being pretty runs on their blood.
I can't handle this anymore.
