The Nerd's Scheme

Chapter 7

Khloe

I entered the room without giving a damn with their obvious stare. Mukhang may gusto silang itanong tungkol sa paghila sa akin ni Logan

Padabog akong umupo sa upuan ko. Damn that asshole! I want to strangle his neck for doing that. I unconsciously touched my neck. I can still feel his hot breath on my skin

I raised an eyebrow when my eyes landed on Ariella. She has lot of questions in her eyes. Her eyes travels from my face down to my arms. What? You're looking for a visible wound? Were you expecting numerous bruises? Sorry to disappoint you bitch

"I heard what happened. Are you okay?" nag aalalang tanong ni Xavier. Wala sya rito kanina dahil nagkaroon sya ng meeting kasama ang iba pang presidents ng iba pang klase

"Yeah. Nothing to worry" I smiled, showing him that I'm really okay... well kinda. I couldn't still move on from that close contact with Logan

"Did Logan teach you a lesson?"

From Xavier, my eyes diverted to the person standing in front of me. Kasamahan ito ni Logan at sa likod nito ay ang iba pa nyang kaibigan. A typical bunch of good for nothing idiots

"Sorry to burst your bubbles but I'm totally fine" I smiled sweetly. His brows furrowed. Guess he's now really annoyed

"Matapang ka talaga huh?" hinawakan nya ang desk ko at halos ibalibag pa ito palayo. Napatayo ang ilang mga malapit sa pwesto namin ganun din si Xavier

"T-tigilan mo na yan Drew" Xavier was trying to stop him through gently pushing him away to give us safe distance. Drew clearly didn't like it that he held Xavier's wrist and forcefully pushed him away

Napaatras si Xavier dahil sa lakas nang pagkakatulak nya. Xavier is thin compare to him... and obviously weak. Tumama ang likuran ni Xavier sa may pader. Naalarma ako at agad na tumayo para lapitan sya pero agad din akong napatigil nang may humawak sa braso ko

This way more forceful than Logan's hold to me a while ago

"You sure didn't learn" he dangerously said

"Let go of me" I put emphasis on my every word

He just laughed at me and pulled me closer to him. I want to wince in pain but no... showing him that I'm actually hurting will only satisfy him

"Wag mo akong utusan---" I cut him off through holding his wrist and twisting it. He was groaning in pain but heck! I'm not done yet! I'm now facing his back and before he could utter a word, I pushed him and kicked him on his back. Napasubsob ito sa sahig sa ginawa ko

Alam kong nagulat ang mga nakakita sa ginawa ko. I may not look capable but I actually took self defense class

"Y-you bitch!" tumayo ito at akmang susugod na sa akin nang biglang humarang si Steve. Nakalapat ang kamay ni Steve sa braso nito na tila pinpigilan ito

"That's enough"

"Didn't you see what she did to me?!" galit na sigaw ni Drew

"I did but dude... you are going overboard. She's still a girl"

Drew just snorted

"She's a trash! Masyadong mayabang. Dapat dyan ay tinuturuan ng leksyon!" susugod pa sana ulit si Drew ng biglang malakas na bumukas ang pintuan

"What's happening here?"

That annoying voice. I didn't have to look at him to confirm who is he

"T-that girl! She... " hindi nya matuloy ang sasabihin

I crossed my arms and grinned

"What? Why can't you say it? Are you ashamed that I made you kissed the floor?"

Oh the raging fire on his eyes. He looks like he's ready to beat the hell out of me

"Y-you!"

Inalis nya ang kamay ni Steve at akmang lalapit na sa akin nang mapatigil sya dahil tumayo si Logan sa gilid ko. Kahit ako ay nagulat nang akbayan ako nito

"Did my baby pisses you off?" diretsong tanong nya kay Drew habang may ngisi sa labi

My mouth parted with what he just said. Nasisiguro ko rin na gulat din ang mga nakarinig. Just... just what the fuck is wrong with this bastard?!

"L-logan... " Ariella called in a low voice. Yeah, there's your girlfriend! What the heck are you doing Logan Zamora?!

"I won't apologize for what she did... you went too far Drew" seryosong saad ni Logan. Inalis nito ang pagkakaakbay sa akin at naglakad palapit kay Drew

I can see the nervousness in Drew's face. Napapalunok ito sa bawat hakbang ni Logan. He looks like a prey in front of his predator. He knows that... there's no way he could win... nor could run. He was cornered... and the only possible way out is if Logan give him mercy and let him escape

"G-gusto ko lang syang turuan ng leksyon. S-she deserve to be punished after what she did to you and to---"

Logan grabbed his collar

"Did I tell you to do that?"

Takot na umiling si Drew. Logan tighten his grip and pushed Drew against the white board. Napahiyaw ang mga kaklase namin sa gulat. Mabuti na lang ay hindi masyadong dinig sa labas ang ingay mula rito sa loob

"Don't fucking interfere with my business. She's mine to deal with. Do you understand?"

Drew nodded earnestly

Logan smirked and let go of his collar. Humarap sa akin si Logan at tinitigan ako ng ilang segundo bago tumalikod at lumabas ng room

Masamang tingin ang pinukol sa akin ni Drew pero wala ni isang salita ang lumabas sa bibig nya

Inayos nito ang nagulong polo at padabog na lumabas ng classroom. Sumunod sa kanya ang mga kaibigan nya. Yeah, he needs some comfort

Nagsalubong ang tingin namin ni Steve. He just stared at me for seconds before he shook his head and left the classroom. Maybe he will follow his best friend, Logan

"Are you okay?" tanong ni Xavier

I was about to answer him when Ariella stood in front of me. I have a feeling that she will confront me

"What was that?" see? She's threatened

"What was what?" I asked

"He called you... " she couldn't finished her words. Tss she's really bothered with that endearment. What's with the use of it if he didn't mean it though. It was really nothing to me

"H-he called you---"

"He called me baby? Don't worry, I will ask him to call you Grandma so you could stop your drama"

Her mouth parted. I rolled my eyes and turned my back. Tinulungan ako ni Xavier na ayusin ang desk ko at ang libro ko na nahulog

That damn Drew. Just look at the aftermath of the trouble he caused! Muntik pang mapunit ang libro ko dahil sa ginawa nya!

Bumalik ako sa upuan ko at hindi pinansin ang tinginan ng mga kaklase ko. I know Xavier has lot of questions too but he chose not to voice it out. Maybe he sensed that I don't have plan to answer his obvious questions

Pinikit ko ang mga mata ko. I will go to the cafe later. I really need a book and a cup of coffee to relax
