DREAM FOR THE COLLEGE STUDENT
by Nilathiel
She shivered, pulling the sweater over her shoulders. Summer was almost over and she was running a fever. Her pale skin seemed foreign to her country of brown-skinned men. She received skeptical eyebrows from all those who noticed the strangest girl they have probably seen.
A body bag on her lanky form. Purple earphones plugged into her elf-like ears. Long ebony hair falling over onyx eyes and a pale face.
"Hey Sofia." a familiar voice called out to her.
She didn't hear. Either that or she didn't care. She merely pulled her trusty sweater closer to her body. Her pace increased.
"Sofia! Sofia!!"
A fierce tap came on her shoulder. She glared at the assailant with much ferocity(spelling?).
The young man grinned.
"I'm glad you came."
The remark was replied with an indignant snort.
"I had to skip class for this."
She walked briskly towards the assembly area. The young man followed suit.
"Gino, where are you guildmates?"
A finger was pointed to the direction of the escalator.
"You want to join us?"
She nodded in reply. When she found herself following, a fierce voice called out to her.
"Miss Vinoya! Miss Vinoya!"
She woke from her daydream. She could swear the voice she heard was her teacher's. A furious lady glowered at her slumped form on the desk.
"Your alter ego wandering again, I presume?"
The class erupted in laughter.
She sighed. It was a ll a daydream if not a fantasy.
It was September 13,2003. Ragnafest at Glorietta. And she was missing it.
I missed it.
