“This life is what you make it. No matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends - they'll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they're your true best friends. Don't let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. And baby, I hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can't give up because if you give up, you'll never find your soulmate. You'll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.”  ― Marilyn Monroe

Lunch break.

Everyone in the cafeteria are eating, some are laughing, some of them are talking, and some are making fool of themselves.

They are all happy. Except for one.

She’s alone, eating her lunch. Its been two months since nag start ang classes. She doesn’t have friends, maybe because she’s new in the University. Its a Univesity in that City. Most of them are close to each other, it is the only private school or University in the City. This City is where the Gilberts just moved recently.

Its been two months pero she doesn’t make any progress. She doesn’t make friends. But people around her want her to become their friend. Others are too intimidated to talk to her, why? Because she looks like a lion or a tiger, unang tingin mo pa lang sa kanya, kilay pa lang may kalalagyan ka na, especially boys. But other guys, keep on flirting with her, getting her attention, but just like what she would always do, she justs ingnores those guys, she thinks that they just like the chase, they just like to be challenged by her katarayan.

France is quietly eating her lunch. Si Paris naman, busy ogling over her. He’s really into her. He likes her, maybe in love. But Paris is too stubborn to admit that he likes her that much, lagi niyang sinasabi crush lang niya ang dalaga.

“Huy!” Sabay bato ni Jubei kay Paris ng kinakain nitong chichirya at sinabing “Picturan mo na lang kaya, mas mag lalast pa yon tol.”

“Tss.” Pag angil ni Paris sabay kuha dun sa kinakain ni Jubei. Napa “Hey!” naman si Jubei sa pagkabigla dahil kinuha nito ang paborito nitong kainin na chihcirya.

France’s Point of View

Its been two months. Theres a lot of my school mates at block mates na gusto akong maging friend, and mga guys na ang lakas magpapansin. Yung iba feeling gwapo, yung iba naman ang kapal masyasdo ng mukha, yung iba papresko. Nako! The nerve! Pagwapo muna siya bago siya mag papansin sa akin ah! Kakaasar eh. Kakapal masyado.

Im not into guys na gwapo, mahirap yang mga ganyan. Lapitin ng mga babae yan. Lolokohin ka pa. Mahirap din naman sa pangit, kasi minsan, yung inaakala mong safe ka, yun pala siya pa ang mang loloko sayo. Kaya gwapo o pangit? Nah, wala akong pipiliin sa dalawa. Gusto ko sa lalaki yung totoo. Yung bang walang tintago yung ugali niya pag kasama ka, walang pagpapanggap pag kasama ka. Yung kunwari type mo sa guy masungit, aba gagawin ng loko ang ganung ugali para mapansin mo. Sorry boy, ayoko sa ganung lalaki. Malalman at malalaman ko yan.

Di naman sa bitter ako. Hmm. Its just that, mahirap ang masaktan. Kaya yang love na yan? Tsaka na yan. Di importante yan. Kaya kahit isang lalaki dito sa University, wala akong pinapansin. Lahat sinusungitan ko. Di ako malandi, at ayokong maging malandi. Its not like Im against sa malalandi, i just don’t like to be one of them.

Sa nakikipag-friends? Iniignore ko lang. I just shrug it off. Di naman sa maarte ako, pero can you blame me. Im not a friendly person and besides, ayoko ng maulit ang nangyari sa akin before. They just used me, para bang naging human credit card nila ako, di naman binabayaran. Tss. Users. I bet in this university, they also have tons of users in here.

I don’t know, people in here seems too close to each other. Kilala nila ang lahat ng tao dito. Pag may bago or dayo, alam agad nila. Kilala nga naman nila ang mga tao na taga dito.

Im not in the middle of nowhere. Im here in Laguna – Region IV-A CALABARZON. Need to elaborate pa?

Papunta akong locker ko, patingin tingin sa akin ang mga tao dito. Ngayon lang ba sila naka kita ng maganda? Tss. Im not conceited or what. Its just that I know na

Im not bad looking and Im not that good looking either.

Their stares and mumurs are getting into my nerves na ah. Kung makapang bulung-bulungan eh.

After kong kunin ang dapat kunin at ilagay ang dapat ilagay, umalis na ako sa locker. They’re weird! Ano bang tinitingin-tingin nila?! Nakakaasar na ah.

May nakasalubong pa akong lalaki, nakatingin siya. More like nakatitig siya creepy ah.

AN: This is New right? Haha! Chapter Six na bago nagka POV si France, sorry. Wala sana pa dapat, pero kasi wala lang. Hmm about sa City? I just want to clear something; Yung City is Fiction lang siya ah. Kaya wag niyo ako tanungin if saan ito or meron ba talagang gantong lugar sa Laguna.

Sorry guys if ganto yung pagka taglish ko. Asaaar. My friends tease me bout this, bout my story, cause I cant write in straight tagalong or straight English, ang conyo daw. Sorry talaga! Di naman kasi ako professional writer kaya, nag fifeeling lang akong maging writer dito haha. Anyway, enjoy reading J
