More Than The Gems

Chapter 3

Nakaka irita talaga!

"Bakit kasi sisipa ka na nga lang, papunta pa sa pader?! Mukha ba kong net?!" I exclaimed. He licked his lips and it reddened, I pulled myself together and avoid to be distracted.

"I'll just buy you another o--" I cutted him. "Limited edition yan." kung hindi, edi sana di pa ko nakipagtalo at bumili na lang ng bago.

"Then I'll pay--" I cutted him again.

"I don't need it." I don't need it. Gusto ko mabasa ang susunod na mangyayari!

He stood up and looked at me for I don't know how many seconds. He sighed and closed his eyes tightly na parang dagdag ako sa problema niya. He put his hands in his pocket before speaking. "Then give me a week, I can find you one, anything... for you."

Maganda naman ang style ng uniform namin. It's a black skirt with folds and sa magkabila nito ay black lace na isusuot naman sa balikat, like a jumper style and we have a white blouse for top.

"Let's go?" tanong ko sa dalawang makulit na nagpapaluan ng bag. Akala ata nila walang nanonood sa kanila.

My phone rang and it's Denschel again. Kailan naman kaya ako titigilan ng isang to? "Oh?" I asked pagka tap sa green button. Di ko sya matiis eh.

"Hey! How are you?" he asked. Medyo maingay sa background ng linya niya. "I'll go to school today, mamaya na lang." sabi ko pero pinigilan nya ko. "You tried this kwek kwek before? It's delicious." sabi nya kaya mukhang kumakain sya.

"I didn't. Mom doesn't allowed me to buy those foods before remember?" I answered. I don't know but Dad said that her ex got her by treating her that food so she's bitter. I heard Denschel asking for sawsawan, narinig ko rin ang kausap niya na nakakailang ulit na siya.

"Then, Chel. Mamaya na lang." I said and hang up. Mas e-enjoyin niya naman siguro ang pagkain than talking to me.

We arrived at the school and as a routine, kinuha ko lang ang mga gamit na kakailanganin namin. I wore my slippers again at pumunta sa clssroom.

Our first lesson is about language, English and grammar. Well, it's already easy for me since I'm from english country. The sensei didn't waste any seconds and she focused in teaching. Magaling sya magturo.

Second is a japanese lesson, they teached the basic way of writing and a short history back in Edo period. The lesson mentioned the tanka and haiku. I admired japanese for being poetic, their poems always hit the hearts of the people, sensei said that we'll write tanka or haiku next time.

Sumunod ang iba't ibang lessons and I enjoyed it. Studying here was the best decision I ever made. Sa next lesson naman ay kailangan naming magpunta sa gym, physical exercises na ang gagawin namin.

We changed our clothes, it's a white tshirt and red cycling shorts. The instructor is kinda strict or maybe it's just his looks...

What we did are just physical exercises, like squat and boxing. so tiring. Sweats formed down on my face, we should take a bath first bago mag lunch.

1:00 pm when we finished, I pulled Kazumi with me since I'm really hungry, pumila agad kami para makakain na. Buti at air conditioned ang school.

We get our trays and we sat on the table near the vending machine. Bumili ako ng cola at juice para samin. I don't know where's Kairo, inilapag ko ang canned drinks sa table namin ng lumilinga pa rin.

"Ne, Kazumi, where's Kairo?" I asked and she roamed her eyes too. She blow her cheeks at unti-unting nagsalubong ang kilay. "Aish!" she said irritatedly.
