《CALLA》53: Why?
Advertisement
I almost made it to my car when my arm was grabbed by Eli Frye. I would have been surprised by it if it didn't happened once before.
"What do you want?"
My anger was beginning to burn. I wanted to be alone - to calm myself before it consume me. Why did he have to follow me? Why won't he let me go?
"Where are you going?"
"To class" I tried to pull out of his iron grip.
"Why are you angry?"
His calm tone was like water to oil. I yanked my arm away so hard from his gripped that I almost fell back.
"Why am I angry? I'm angry because you won't leave me alone!"
Seeing those violet eyes on me, studying me - I wanted to run.
"You're angry with me"
He stated calmly as if he understood. I hated it that he thinks he did. Unable to look at him anymore, I turned to my car. Again, Eli Frye took hold of my now bruised arm. I would have screamed when soft lips suddenly pressed down onto mine.
Stunned, I pushed him off me as quickly as his lips touched mine. And before I could stop myself, my hand had already made contact with his cheek. I glared up at him while my hand trembled with pain. Even though his cheek was red, he didn't look hurt. His eyes still focused on me.
"How dare you?" My voice shook with so much emotion. "How dare you!"
He didn't apologize. He didn't say anything as he reached out to touch my cheek. I would have slapped him again but he easily took hold of my hand.
"There is nothing between Rose and me"
Those were the same words he spoken to me once - right after I saw Rose kiss his cheek. The memories of their intimate moment made me pulled away like I've been burned.

"Nothing between Rose and you?" I wanted to laugh but only a tearless cry was heard. "You've been together for five years and you dare say there's nothing between you and my sister? You're engaged and you dare say there's nothing between you and Rose?"
I have felt many things for Eli Frye - love, admiration, and sorrow. Even though he never looked my way, I still respect him. But in that very moment, I hated Eli Frye.
"Do you take me for a fool?" I glared - hating myself for the uncontrollable tears. "Do you take my sister for a fool?"
It was only then that his expression showed concerned. He tried again to reach for me but I smack his hand away.
"Don't touch me" I warned him with cold eyes.
This time, he did not stop me as I got in my car and drove away.

The Ruined Monks of Rothfield Monastery
Erin is the youngest member of the dark monks; a supernatural brotherhood whose ultimate mission is to improve the dire circumstances of poor, war-torn villages using powers unique to each member. Or so he was led to believe. Erin, like his brothers, does not age, and that is, unfortunately, the only trait he shares with them. He cannot charm or compel like Woodrow, he cannot cast illusions like Knox, he was not swift like Swithin, not powerful like Blake. He was barely an assistant to his dear brother Wilbur, with his herbology and alchemy. He was told to lie low and make himself scarce. That is what he did. The dark monks temporarily reside in abandoned monasteries scattered around the country, feeding the poor and healing the sick, nurturing the monastic lands until it was fertile enough to raise crops and rear animals. As the years passed, they would leave these reformed, repopulated, self-sustaining monasteries and venture froth to help the next settlement. Yet, after years of toiling and quiet servitude, Erin notices that people and the country itself are declining. The villagers look gaunt, the once-lush soil now barren and cracked. He begins to feel disheartened, thinking that their mission is proving futile. Still, their leader Blake is steadfast and charges onward, and lately has his eyes set on a certain monastery in a thick, thorned forest that seems to diminish, even nullify their powers. A thick forest that Erin somehow has a connection to. A thorned glade where an ethereal voice calls his name with one simple request along with a promise:Heal the land, child. Heal the land and I promise to give you sanctuary so long as you stay. I promise to nurture you as you nurture me. As Erin cultivates the land, the land, in turn, gifts all its caretakers with new, enhanced skillsets on top of their unique powers -- skills of protection, healing, and magic. Magic. Erin had long wished to see the world fill with it again. The people, regardless of common or noble blood, still believe that magic will enter this world again. Magic to bless the king like it did the Saints. Magic to dispel the miasma befouling the world. Magic to bring back the fae folk and their many forms. It is up to Erin to forge the many paths leading to a bright future; to build a prosperous paradise that welcomes all races and bloodlines, by mastering the rewards gained through agriculture, horticulture, and animal husbandry, smithing, crafting, and fishing. Erin may also find a lifelong friendship and romance with his neighbor, Claude, if he decides to pursue him, and may even join him in the military campaign outside the monastery. The darkness still lurks outside, after all, and the mastery of his skills, along with a few good friends, may finally be enough to turn the tide in their favor. Most of all, Erin wants to keep the vow he set for himself: to protect everyone and everything he loves until his dying breath.
