Something That Science Can't Explain

Chapter 1: Friends

I just smiled when my favorite movie had showed up in the TV.

Monday

After spending my summer vacation (and a week for my Big Project), today is the first day of my 8th grade life.

This time, my alarm clock finally alarmed. Salamat.

My Mom arranged breakfast for both me and my little sister, Ruby.

After eating, I took a bath, nagbihis na, and went inside of Mom's car. After minutes, sumunod si Ruby. Tagal magbihis ng bata na yan.

Despite my reputation and status, I was sent to a normal school.

When I was 7 or 8 I think, I was sent to a special academy held by the government where they enhance the brains of those who are gifted.

My parents decided I should live a normal life in a normal school with normal friends and normal teachers.

I feel anxious at first, though. I have a feeling they won't accept me for who I am and would judge me because my position is higher than theirs.

I'm rich, smart, and I have other envious traits.

But I was wrong. They accepted me. I even gained two best friends.

I even hide in the boy's bathroom every often because of GIRLS chasing me.

Alam ko naman na gwapo ako. Pero di ko alam na SOBRANG gwapo ko pala.

Naalala ko nung Grade 7 ako...

Tumago ako sa C.R. and asked myself. "BAKIT ANG DAMING HUMAHABOL SA AKIN?!"

I looked at the C.R.'s mirror and found out the answer.

I even questioned my sexuality at that moment. Why can't I be a girl and date my male version self?

Anyway, all I can say is... sa dami ng humahabol sa akin, kahit isa, wala akong nagustuhan sa kanila.

I'm not choosy. I just happen to have high standards when choosing.

...and because of that, I'm still single.

My two best friends, Sean and Christjude, already have a girlfriend.

But me? Kahit mas gwapo ako sa kanila, I'm still single as fuck.

Recess

I poked my food and played with it a little, not wanting to eat it. I need to, pero wala nga lang akong gana.

Cafeteria spaghetti; colder than Antarctica, dryer than sand.

Gordon Ramsay would shit cats if tinikman niya toh.

"Boi, kumain ka na." Napatingin ako kay Sean na nilalamon ung macaroni niya na parang di kumain ng tatlong buwan.

"You like their pasta???" Tanong ko sa kanya. Seriously, I despise the cafeteria's pasta.

"Masarap naman ah!" Sabi niya

"Edi kainin mo na rin yung sa akin." I suggested.

I seriously don't want to eat. I'm really hungry but this pasta destroyed my appetite.

Just because I'm rich, doesn't mean I'm spoiled. I just seriously hate the pasta. I bet also you will.

Christjude said I should try it but...
