2 weeks from now is the competition for math dance, I was pretty confident when it comes to my academics, I know I did well.

My sister on the other hand, Will stay at our house for good, Because mom say's she needs to look after her children more often.

"Hi ate! I miss you" Avarelyn said and hugged me. I hugged her back because I missed her too. My 11 years old sister is here now.

"How are you?" I asked Ava.

"I'm okay po, ate. How about you?" Ava smiled when she ask me that, I don't want her to get the wrong idea even if I lie, I never wanted her to hate my parents too.

"I'm fine" I said.

After the little chitchat Mom grabbed her to go inside their room so they could have the "mother and daughter moment"

My brother and I wasn't in a good term, Nang magkaroon nang muwang ay napagtanto kong hindi kami mag kaka ayos dahil una pa lang ay kinamumuhian niya na ako.

Sometimes he'll beat me with mo reason, And I don't have anyone to vent out, Even if I have friends now, I don't want to open up because I'm used to not being heard. I always listen but never heard.

Monday came and I had to hide my bruises that I got from my brother, of course, so I wore a simple cardigan. Hindi naman mainit kaya ayos na rin.

Pagka-rating ko sa school ay dumiretso agad ako sa classroom namin.

"Hi! Good morning Astrid at Akiesha!" Gill greeted us with a smile. How jolly.

"Bat ba Ang haba haba Ng pangalan nyo? Trid at Kie na lang Ang itatawag ko, bahala kayo" Sabi ni Gill.

"Bakit ka nga pala naka cardigan?" Kie ask.

"I just want to, Is it illegal?" I ask in return.

"Hindi naman, Malamig rin naman at naka aircon, makapag dala nga rin ng jacket bukas" Sabi ni Kie.

Kumpol-kumpol kami Ng activities but I can manage. Break time na at napag desisyonan naming kumuha ng tubig sa canteen.

Nakasalubong ko iyong mga kasali sa math dance including the guy, they smiled at me but I couldn't return the favor, They're still a stranger to me. Bumalik na rin naman kami sa room nang mag bell, Hindi naman ganoon kahirap ang mga pinag-aaralan namin, actually parang recall lang rin ang nangyayari dahil matagal nang na discuss iyon sa amin.

"Uy Astrid, May practice tayo ah, baka nakalimutan mo kasi eh, reminder lang Ganon hehe" Charlotte informed me, again.

Sa room ng red raw ulit mag kikita para sabay-sabay kaming maka punta sa covered court kung saan kami nag p-practice.

"Good luck sa laban nyo ah? Ipanalo niyo yan, kering keri" Gill.

"Good luck Trid" Kie.

I bid my goodbye to them because Maureen said that everyone should be in their room na which is sa red.

"Lawrence Dito ka" Maureen pointed out my side.

"Astrid!" Someone calls me kaya luminga-linga ako kung saan iyon nang galing.

"Jelo" I uttered his name, my gay friend.

"Ohhh, Math dance? Good luck agad!" He said and tapped my shoulder before leaving.

"Dito ka raw" The Lawrence guy said, I didn't know if he's talking to me kaya hindi ako kumibot.

"Tacia" My heart skipped a beat when he stated my family's nickname for me! Only my family can call me that! Saan naman niya nalaman iyon?
