"So, I'm gonna be your boss?"I jokingly asked.

"Yes, boss."He said and even made a salute. I chuckled.

"It's weird."

Nang makadating na kami sa classroom ay biglang lumabas sina Sapphire, Natasha, at Amber at lumapit sila sa akin na mukhang kanina pa ako hinahanap.

"Jewel!"They shouted."Kanina ka pa namin hinahanap!"And I was right...

"Why?"

"Let's pass the report now!Change of plans."Nanlaki ang mata ko sa sinabi ni Natasha. Akala ko ba tomorrow kami papasa sa report dahil iyon ang sinabi nila.

"What?!"

"Tapos ka na diba?"tanong ni Amber.

"Oo naman. Akala ko hindi pa kayo tapos-"

"Kanina pa. Let's go!"sabi ni Sapphire at hinawakan ang kamay ko at bigla kami tumakbo.

"Oh, hey Carter!"Natasha said when she saw Carter.

Pagkatapos namin pumasa ay pumunta kami sa cafeteria upang mag-lunch. Amber also said the boys are there. Pagdating namin ay may table na kaming available dahil sa mga boyfriend nito.

"Tapos na kayo sa pinapagawa ni Miss Castro?"tanong ni Rigel sa amin.

"Yup, babe."Sapphire answered.

"Sana all."That was Kaizer.

"Isa nalang at tapos na din kami."buntong-hiningang sabi ni August.

"How about Jace?"Natasha asked.

"He already finished earlier. Sinabi niya sa akin kanina."I answered her.

"I'm pretty sure, siya ang summa cum laude natin."Rigel said, confidently.

"Well, it could also be Jewel."Sapphire said and pointed at me.

"Oo nga, talino din naman si Jewel."says Kaizer.

"Si Jace na iyan."I said and took a bite from the sandwich.

"Ang humble mo naman."Natasha nudged me and I almost drop my sandwich. I glared at her and she was just smiling.

"She's just trying to be modest."Amber smirked.

"Mas karapatdapat pa si Jace sa title."I said to them and continued eating. Kanina pa ako gutom na gutom, dahil sa daming gawain.

"Eh, ikaw din naman ah! Ang talino mo at masipag ka mag-aral."August said.

"Kayo din naman, ah!"

"May times di na tamad kami, Jewel. Eh, ikaw palaging determined, mukhang walang araw na walang inspirasyon."ngising sabi ni Sapphire.

"Baka dahil kay Jace."Amber said and nudged me.

"Yiee!!"they all said and I rolled my eyes.

"Shut up."

"Hey mon amour."Jace suddenly appeared infront of us and kissed me on the forehead, before sitting at the chair beside me."So I heard my name?Anong pinag-uusapan niyo?"

"Kung sino sa inyo ang maging summa cum laude."Rigel answered.

"Para sayo, Jace. Sino?"Sapphire asked.

"I'm sure it's Jewel."Jace smiled at me and then winked.

"Oh diba!"sigaw ni Kaizer. I rolled my eyes. Kanina ang sabi niya si Jace.

"Hindi ka ba pwede tumingin sa records?Tutal owner ka naman sa school diba!"August said and we all looked at Jace waiting for his answer.

"Even if I'm the owner, I am still a student. That's a bit unfair for all of us."
