BEHIND THOSE PRETTY FACES

CHAPTER 14

SKY's POV

Nandito ngayon ang mga students ko sa Effulgent Academy. Iniwan ko muna sila saglit para kausapin sina Mr. Do and Mr. Park regarding sa darating na intramurals for the two schools. Lagi kaming sabay nagdiriwang ng intramurals that always end up competing with our students. Dito makikita kung sino ang magaling sa sports and academics for the representatives for national competitions. Nauna na akong bumalik ng school nila at hindi maganda ang nadatnan ko. Since that day, nag-iba na talaga siya. Wala na siyang kinatatakutan except Storm. Haist! Kalian kaya ulit siya babalik sa dati.

"What's happening here?" I asked.

"Tell your students I don't like the way she talks to me." Sagot nung matandang dalagang principal dito. Tsk! Ewan ko ba kung bakit hindi pa nila palitan yun. Bukod sa masungit na, napakabias pa. Tsk!

"I'm sorry Miss. But did you know the whole story of what happened?"

"I don't."

"You don't. So please don't accuse anything to my students unless it's been proven." I seriously said.

"We can review your cctv's here if you want." That Alexandria suggested while looking around on the CCTV cameras placed in every corner of the corridor.

"Great idea." Sabi ni Blake. Nandito pala 'tong mga 'to hindi man lang pinigilan. Tumingin ako sa kanilang grupo and gave them my we'll-talk-later look.

"We can't see the cctv footage unless it is allowed by the owner." Matigas na sambit nung principal.

"You sure of that? Or you don't want to admit your mistake?" Mapaglarong tanong ni Rheign.

Biglang dumating sina Mr. and Mrs. Do and Mr. and Mrs. Park.

"Is there any problem here Ms. Kim."

"Yes. There is Mrs. Park. Your principal is accusing my students for doing something she didn't know. So I'm requesting to see the footage of your CCTVs to know the whole story."

"We're really sorry Ms. Kim. Let's go to the auditorium and all of us will watch what really happened." Pagpapaliwang ni Mr. Do. Nauna na sila at sumunod lang kami. Hindi nakaligtas sa paningin ko ang takot sa mukha nung mga babaeng mukhang nakipag-away. Tsk!!! Obviously guilty. Napatingin sila sakin with feared eyes. I just smirked at them.

Nag-umpisa na magplay yung video at napagalaman na yung mga students nila ang nagumpisa ng gulo. They have been suspended for a month.

"I'm really sorry Ms. Jung. I promise this will not happen again. Ms. Cruz, apologize to her." Sabi ni Mrs. Do.

"But sir..."

"No more buts."

"Don't force her. I don't mind it. And sorry is not in my vocabulary. Anyeong." Sabi ni Erra at umalis na sila.

"I'm really disappointed about this Tito Kristof. I know that all schools have bitches. Hindi na natin maaalis yun but the fact that your principal is saying something against my students and school is unacceptable. She's being bias."

"We're really sorry Skyler. This will never happen again and about you Ms. Cruz, you may now start packing your things because as of today, you are not the Effulgent Academy's principal." Napangiti naman ako sa sinabi ni Tito. Akala niya ah. I know everything about that old woman.

"But..."

"I will go ahead first. Babalikan ko na lang mamaya ang mga students ko. Something urgent came and I need to take care of it as soon as possible." Pagpapaalam ko.

"Ihahatid ka na namin."

"Thank You."

Bago ako umalis, I gave my brother and his friends a warning.
