"Hey! It's the first day of school! You can't be late! Go downstairs and eat!" While mom was knocking at my door
"Hmmm. . " why is she overreacting?! I looked at my wall clock and realized that it's already 7:30. My first class is 8:30 geeez I only have an hour left. My school is 30 minutes away from home.
I started to prepare. After everything, I hurriedly went downstairs because I'm running late. I saw my mom and my brother eating.
"where's dad? "
"He didn't go home last night" mom said
"Maybe he's with that bitch again" my brother said with a blank expression
"Stop badmouthing your dad! "
Mom said. I just kept quiet and kissed her goodbye.
"Won't you eat? "
"Nope. I'm running late" I ran outside. I heard her saying something but I just ignored her.
"Shit" I hissed when I realized that I'm already 15 minutes late.
We're not rich so I have to ride a tricycle to school. While I was waiting for one, a car stopped in front of me. It's my dad
"Get in"
"What if I don't want to? "
"I'll drag you inside"
I hurriedly hopped inside the car without even thinking about it. Silence covered us for about 3 minutes.(I swear it felt like hours)
"You didn't go home last night, "
"Sorry I got busy so I just slept at the office"
"Tsk. You just got busy with that whore so you slept with her" I whispered. Everyone knows that he has another woman
"What? "
"Nothing "
"We're here"
"Thanks"
"Shit I'm late" I hurriedly went to the bulletin board to look for my room number. "Geez! I can't find it" I whispered
"Miss, Try looking for your name at the female section,you might see it" I realized that I was looking for my name in the male section. How can I be so stupid! (omg. That voice. Shit! So sexy 😍😍.)
"Oh thanks"
"You're welcome. Btw, I'm Ace"
I don't know why but I felt like my heart is going to burst. He's so handsome. "Hey. Are you ok?"
"Uhm. Yeah. Sorry . I mean . . I'm Valerie"
"Nice to meet you, valerie" he said that with a smile which had me dying. Haha.
"Uhm.so . . Yeah. I'm already late I gotta go. BYE" I ran to look for the room and I saw him at my back.
"Are you following me?!? You can go away now."
"Woah. Why would I follow you? We just met awhile ago. You're not my type anyways excuse." He passed by me and went to room 104 and wait what?!? He's going to be my classmate?! I was like. . . Melting I feel so ashamed of myself for assuming that he's following me.
When I opened the door, I saw him getting scolded our professor and he's just standing there with a blank expression. The Prof. Looked at me.
"Wow. The two of you. How can you be late for the first day of class?! Sit!"
"Introduce yourselves one by one class"
"Yes, sir" I didn't give a f*ck About that and put on my earphones and listened to " the black parade"
"Next!" I didn't notice that I was the next one. So I stood . . .
"Valerie"
"Is that all miss? " I kept silent.
"Valerie, nice name" Ace whispered and I just rolled my eyes and continue what I was doing.
The discussion went on. I'm not listening. I looked around to see if I know someone here. I saw Ace smirking at me. I looked away as fast as I could.
BTW, I'm Sophia Valerie Cortez, 17, a senior high school student at the university of the philippines
I'm going to end this chapter right here. Sorry for the boring story. This is my first so I hope you understand.
