RULE NO. 12 NO INCEST (Part Two; Ongoing)

Chapter 16

Chapter 16

- ALLISANDRA'S POV -

"WHAT drugs are you talking about?" Tanong ko kay Raymond.

"Marco owed that guy a bunch of drugs." Leo briefly explained as if it helped me to understand what is going on.

It is important to me since my name is being dragged. But thanks to these assholes for being so helpful.

"And it's not just drugs," Leo added. Ray and I turned our heads to him, curious about what he is about to say.

Leo was about to add something when I received a message from Coach telling us to come back to his office, that's why we did so.

When we got there, Marco is no longer in Coach's office.

"You might be wondering where is he." Said by coach answering my thoughts.

"The board sent him home. He will be suspended for the rest of the sem as well as the Criminology students that were involved." Sabi pa niya.

"As for you Raymond and Leo, the board had decided to retain you in the team but you have to do a community service for a total of..." He paused to massage his temples, "a month."

"A month?!” Raymond almost jumped out of his wheelchair hearing the decision which a total opposite to Leo's take on it. He is just laid back as if it does not affect him at all.

"Do not complain, Manlangit!” coach glared again. “If I were to decide, I would suggest suspending you too, the three of you, to be honest! Now, be grateful that it is what has been decided! Dismiss!" And we did not think another second and hurriedly get out of the room.

For the longest time that I have been working with Coach, ngayon ko lang siya nakita na sobra ang galit. Hindi ko naman magawang sisihin siya, the chaos has put the team in danger. The danger of losing the sponsorship from the mayor, the counselors,  and the Department of Education. It means a lot for coach, kaya nga as much as possible, hindi niya pinapayagang magkaroon ng gulo. That's the rules exist. The very same rules that we broke. Akala ko hindi na ko makaka-feel guilt, but with what happened, I am now.

- RAYMOND'S POV -

Isang linggo na lang at matatapos na ang community service namin ni Leo. We were tasked to clean the shower room, but given my situation, Leo ended being alone in there while I was assigned to do an inventory for the whole Sports Department not just for the basketball team. Alli was given clear instructions not to help any of us. She always peaks through the door of the stock room where I was positioned, and she always tells me whenever she would check on Leo.

"Putang inang mga taga Baseball Team! Kung wala lang akong record, nasapak ko na yun!" Leo shouted frustratedly when he entered the locker room. Hindi niya alam na nasa loob din ako kaya bakas sa mukha niya ang gulat.

"Oy, nandito ka pala. Kamusta ka sa Stock Room?" Bati niya.

"Okay lang naman, nakukupalan din ako sa Baseball Team. Porket bago, ginagawang tissue supplier ang school." Naiiling kong sabi. Bagong sport kasi ang baseball sa university ngayon when the Mayor opened a tournament, the board immediately formed a team. Those assholes keep on getting things such as paper tissues, towels, and for goodness sake they are treating the university a water dispenser!

"Free ka ba mamaya? May inuman sa bahay ko." Yaya niya. "Isama mo na din si Alli para may kasama ka."

"Sure. Thanks." Saka naman siya lumabas. Agad kong sinabi kay Alli ang invitation ni Leo pero di siya nag reply. Nag ayos lang ako ng bag at saka ako umalis para hanapin siya.

Iniisa isa kong silipin ang mga lugar kung saan madalas mag tigil si Alli bilang hindi niya sinabi saakin kung saan siya naka-tambay pagkatapos ng klase. Pareho kami ng oras ng uwi sa araw na to kaya kami makakapag sabay sa pag uwi. Medyo nahirapan akong hanapin siya dahil naka saklay na ko. Nirequest ko na kasi sa doktor na mag saklay na lang kaysa wheelchair, mabuti na lang at maganda na ang lagay ng buto ko kaya naman, pinayagan na ko ng doktor.

Nasa isang bakanteng classroom ko nakita si Alli, sa bandang dulo ng floor. Nakasandal siya habang naka pikit ang mata at naka bukas ang bibig. Nang makalapit ako sa kanya, rinig ko naman ang mahihina niyang pag hilik. Sobrang gulo din ng buhok niya, her usual perfectly ironed shirts are wrinkled and her sleeve has a dark stain too. Napangiti ako habang iniisa isa ko lahat ng imperfections niya. Damn, I feel so in love with her, kahit na pa mas madaming araw na hindi siya nakakapag ayos ng sarili niya. I guess, it is the same attribute that Marco loved about her. Who would not dare to love Alli? She is the purest soul ever.

Natigil lang ang pag titig ko sa kanya ng bigla siyang mag mulat.

"Andito ka na pala. Pano mo ko nahanap?" Tanong niya habang hinahawi niya yung buhok niya.

"Lakas mo kasi humilik, bae. Kaya easy lang sakin na mahanap ka sa buong floor na to." Gulat na gulat siya sa sinabi ko na napatakip pa siya ng bibig.

"Shit hindi nga? Madami bang nakarinig?" Tanong niya.

"Oo, kanina nga pag dating ko dito may magkaklase sana kaso tulog na tulog ka, kaya umalis na lang sila. Sa covered court na lang sila nag klase." Sobrang nag pipigil ako ng tawa habang nakikita siyang nai-stress.

"Shuta! Bat di mo ko ginising!” sigaw na niya sakin at doon na ako natawa bigla.

"Hahahahaha! Uto uto ka talaga." Sabi ko. Bago pa man din niya ako mahampas, naka ilag na ako at saka kami tumawang dalawa.

"It's so nice to be laughing again." Bigla niyang sabi. Napabuntong hininga ako.

"I know. I'm just glad that everything is done now with Marco." She held my hand and then smiled. The most genuine and beautiful smile ever.

I am glad that we are back. Hindi ko man masisigurong mawawalan na kami ng problema dahil kasama naman yun sa buhay. But, I would never hurt her again, I would always make sure to make her happy. I want our relationship to last, to be one of a kind. I want to spend my days with her, and only her. At kung may isang kagaya pa ni Marco ang padating, bring it on. I am so fucking ready to kill that guy.

If I need to break another rule, I would freaking do that for her.
