REBIRTH OF GWEN ZAMORA

Lunchbox

" Okay, Class that's for today" Our teacher said and after a seconds the bell is finally ring.

" Gwen, Wanna hang out together? Wala namang assignment and activities so I assume you are free" Andrus said as he carry his back up.

" No, I'm busy. " I bluntly said

Wala ako sa mood gumala or magliwaliw ngayon lalo na kapag kasama mo yung killer mo. And iniiwasan ko rin sya because in this first day of class. Aamin sya sa akin na gusto nya ako.

Kinikilabutan ako sa tuwing naaalala ko yung pagtatapat nya sa akin sa restaurant sa nakaraang buhay ko.

I need to avoid that doom flag. Sino bang gusting maging karelasyon yung taong papatay sa kanya? Sorry, But I'm not that crazy in love. I'm crazy about myself not to other person who is not worthy for my affection.

" Ganu ba. Sige kita nalang tayo bukas" Andrus said.

Tumango nalang ako dito habang naglalagay ng lipstick.

" Are you allowed to put lipstick? Diba ayaw yan ng Mama mo?" Andrus asked out of curiosity.

Tumingin nalang ako kay Andrus habang naglalagay ng lipstick.

" Do I look I care? Why her opinion will be matter to me? She is not my mother" Sabi ko sabay lagay ng lipstick sa pouch bag.

" You're so mean today. First the Adviser, Second Teresita and now you're saying mean things to your mother"

Napatingin nalang kay Andrus sa sinabi nito.

Atlis hindi ako mamamatay tao

" The hell I care?" Nakangiting saad ko sabay sakbit ng bag ko sa balikat ko.

" Chao" Nakangiting saad ko dito as I left the classroom.

He's so annoying. Hindi naman sya ganoon noong nakaraang buhay ko. I remember ako pa yung nagyayaya sya pa yung laging busy. Bakit biglang bumaliktad yung sitwasyon? It is the effect of going back in time?

Well, It's not my problem. It's his problem not mine.

I flip my hair before I walked. I will make sure that your heads will turned for me.

" Ahmmm... Excuse me. Ms. Zamora" I instantly stop nang may  biglang humarang sa harapan ko. I crossed my arms at tinitigan ito.

" Hand me my lunch box" Mabilis na saad ko sabay lahad ng kamay.

Nakayuko at nanginginig na iniabot sa akin ni Enzo yung lunchbox at nagulat nalang ako ng bigla itong lumuhod sa harapan ko.

" I'm sorry about earlier. Sadyang gutom lang ako kaya lutang ako kanina!" Nanginginig na dahilan nito.

Dahil sa ginawa ng lalaking ito biglang nagkaroon bigla ng bulung-bulungan ang corridor.

Ugh! This time I should not be called as a villainess dapat sa middle of the school year pa yon mangyayari pero mukhang mapapaaga dahil sa lalaking ito.

" Look at me" malditang saad ko sabay hawi ng buhok ko sa leeg.

" Do you think I give care about what happened earlier? I'm just thinking that it's a charity work. Like what the foundation doing to you" Mataray na saad ko sabay naglakad palayo dito.

Istorbo. Kinain na nga pagkain ko gumawa pa ng eksena sa corridor.

Nang nasa baba na ako ng building mabilis na dinial ko ang number ng Principal ng school. I just wait a second before he panicky picked up my call.

" Ms.Za-zamora, How surprising. Why did you call?" The Principal asked. Halata sa boses nito ang kaba. Natawa nalang ako sa lalaking ito.

Mukhang tanga

" I'm going to your office right now. I will be there for 6 minutes. See you!" Mabilis na anunsyo ko dito at agad ko itong binabaan ng telepono.

I walked confidently across the academy grounds. All of them stop kapag nadadaanan ko sila. I'm a natural head turner.

After 6 minutes narating ko na rin ang Dean Office. Hindi na ako kumatok at mabilis na binuksan ang pintuan.

" I'm here Principal or should I say Ninong" Nakangiting saad ko dito sabay lahad patungo sa upuan at mabilis na umupo.

" You're giving me nervous breakdown right now. What do you need from me?" Principal asked while fixing the papers from his table.

" Okay if that what you want, I go straight to the point" I bluntly said

" I want you to fired Dominique Roa. My rotten adviser. By the way I have a question. Do you background check all the teacher working here in the School? Because I think you're not doing your job properly" Makahulugang saad ko dito.

Agad na nawalan ng kulay sa mukha ang Dean na syang ikinatawa ko naman.

" Even if you are the Principal of this School. You're still my ninong after all" Tamad na saad ko sabay sandal sa upuan.

" Ehem. What are you saying Gwen? I'm doing my job here! I'm good in my job!" He said that made me laugh.

" I don't know na clown ka pala" Tawang saad ko dito pero agad din itong nahinto at isang matalim na tingin ang binato ko dito.

" Pipili ka lang naman sa dalawa ninong. Kaaway o Kalaban? Kung ayaw mong pumili sa dalawa edi tulungan mo ako. Alam mo ba na ang bagong teacher na iyon ay may kasong Rape sa dati nyang pinagtatrabahuhan?I wonder what Dad will think kapag nalaman nyang may ganoong lalaki nagtatrabaho sa school  na pinapasukan ng anak nya. " I said and looked at him.

Mabilis na tinakip ko ang kamay ko sa bibig ko at umarte na nagulat. " Kahit na hindi ako paborito ni Daddy pero alam nating dalawa na hindi nya hahayaang madungisan ang pangalan ng school na ito" Tamad na saad ko at mabilis na tumayo

" Principal, I'm giving you a deal. You just have to choose. That teacher or your beloved inaanak."Paawa ko dito.

" I don't want to see the face of that rotten teacher tomorrow or else sasabihin ko kay Dad na hindi mo ginagawa yung trabaho mo ng maayos. Ayaw mo naman siguro biglang magpainvestigate si Dad diba?" Ngiting saad ko dito bago ko ito tinalikuran at naglalakad papunta sa pinto.

" I'm going to leave. Have a nice day Principal" Makahulugang saad ko dito bago ko tuluyang lisanin ang opisina nito.

I'm going to design this school according to what I want.
