Hey, Rebel SEASON ONE COMPLETED [The MUERTE Series]

EIGHT

*REBEL’S POV*

“Any day. Any day but today.” sagot ko.

I really got mad when they left another stupid toy in my locker. Yes I have a plan to take revenge, but not like this. I lost myself earlier, but I don’t regret a single thing. I always have bad moods during Friday because I still mourn for the death of my Mom. Plus the fact that today is my first day and dysmenorrhea is killing me slowly, any day BUT today dudes.

“You should’ve just talked to them if you already suspected them doing things to you. Are you even sure that it’s them?”

“Yes. They’re very vocal about their stupidity and I’m a person with common sense and a very good instinct.”

“Well then you should’ve at least talked. Di na dapat paabutin sa ganito Rebel.” malungkot na sagot ni Cherby.

“Oh yeah? Well first of all, I came here to study and do my shit. Now I receive stupid toys from stupid boys every morning? I don’t even know how they were able to open my locker. I keep private things there Cherby. If you were on my shoes, how would that make you feel? Sinasabi mo lang yan because nobody ever treated you like shit. I’m so sick and tired of all these. Can’t you just leave me alone? Kung ayaw nyo sa akin, wag nyo akong pansinin. Kung naiinis kayo sa pagmumukha ko at sa buhok ko na ako lang din naman ang naggupit, isuggest nyong magpakalbo nalang ako tutal madali naman akong kausap. Kung bawal ang payat at maputla dito then, damn wag nyo akong tingnan! Gaano ba ako kamali sa paningin nyo!?”

Nagulat sila sa akin at ako rin mismo ay nagulat sa sarili ko. Am I being too dramatic? My days had been tough and I’m having a mental breakdown.

Hindi kami nakaimik kaagad at mga hindi na rin nagtinginan, until Alex the Brave broke the silence.

“I honestly wanna see you mad. You were always chill although people talk shit behind your back and called you New Girl.”

“Yeah me too. I never expected this to happen.”

“I didn’t know it would reach this point where we have to do a public apology and you, pressing the stupid alarm.”

“Why are you all here?” tanong ko.

“We’re here to apologize.” Cherby said saka lumpit sa akin.

“I don’t need your apology. You can never say sorry for something you did, ginusto mo yun for once.”

“But I didn’t want my side mirror broken so, sorry.” Alex said.

“My public apology would include you, sorry.” Renz added.

“I’m sorry if you had to press the button.” nakangising saad pa ni Mike.

Kumunot ang noo ko at tinaasan sila ng kilay. Napakasincere naman ng apology nila.

“Let’s all be friends please? The boys now know how you get mad and yeah-- let’s be friends?” Cherby asked while clinging on my arm and resting her cheek on my shoulder.

Nagulat naman ako na isa-isa nilang nilahad ang kamay nila upang makipag shakehands kaya naman marahan ko iyong tinapik isa-isa. “I don’t do handshakes, really.” sagot ko.

Napatingin naman ako kay weirdo na nakatitig lang sa akin at hindi naglahad ng kamay. Naging tuwid ang mukha ko at nakipagtitigan lang ako sa kanya. Hindi naman gwapo, kung makamaldito daig pa bakla. Kung hindi ko lang alam ang karakas nya sa mga babae, I’d suspect him as gay.

“Nicc aren’t you gonna shake hands with her?”

“Nope.”

“Nicc don’t be stubborn. We’re here to make friends.”
