And we won! Hindi ako makapaniwalang nakatingin sa result ngayon.
1 Hazel Sierra
Beside my name is number 1 indicating that I earned the first spot!!!
"Sierra lang malakas!" A group of boys cheered na sa tingin ko ay mga kaibigan lang ng mga pinsan ko.
Palabas na ako ng room at maraming bumabati sa'kin kaya natagalan ako ng kunti. I thank them and exchanged smiles because I don't even know them kahit na karamihan ay seniors.
I went out of that room with a smile plastered on my face. Hindi pa rin ako makapaniwala sa naging result. I am the new senate president! A girl, a grade 11, a new student!!
Even Nien and Ivan earned a spot too! Nevielle earned the 3rd spot, Nieander and Ivan got the 6th and 7th spot respectively. We all won!!
"Ate!"
Napalingon ako sa tumawag. Tyler's running towards me with his arms wide open, ready to hug me.
"Congrats!" he whispered.
I hugged him too. "Thank you, Ty."
Si Tyler ang nag campaign saamin sa kanyang batch. He's a transferee but he's really famous in his batch too kaya naging madali ito.
"Asan sina Nevielle?" I broke the hug.
Itinuro niya ang parking lot kung asan nagkakatuwaan sina Nevielle kasama ang mga kaibigan niya. Nieander and Sullivan were there too.
Yves spotted us kaya agad niya kaming tinawag ni Tyler.
"Congrats!"
Hindi ko sila kilala. They're my cousins' friends but I know they are part of our victory kay nginitian ko nalang ang bawat bumabati sa'kin. Isa-isa ko silang tiningnan, nagbabaka sakaling Makita ang isang tao na gusto kong batiin ako ngayon. He wasn't there so we went home to bring the news to our parents ngunit mukhang mas nauna pa nilang malaman kaysa saamin.
Dad was shocked. Hindi nila alam na sumali ako sa Student's council dahil hindi naman ako sumasali sa mga ganyan sa dati kong pinapasukan. And he was even more shocked that I won the first spot!
Kaya sa susunod na araw ay napagisipan nina Dad na mapalipas ng gabi sa siyudad. Us being part of the council isn't a big deal but maybe we're a bit overjoyed that we're together.
"Ano bang problema mo? Kanina ka pa ah!"
Inirapan lang ako ni Nevielle at nagpatuloy sa kanyang nilalaro.
Kanina pa niya ako hindi kinikibo. He kept ignoring me the whole ride! Kahit kausapin ko ay hindi ako pinapansin.
Sinulyapan ko si Nien at agad itong binawi ang tingin saamin ni Nevielle.
"Bahala ka sa buhay mo."
Lumabas ako ng kwarto nila at pumunta sa kwarto nina mommy. Both Hayven and Hansel are watching. Si mommy at dad naman ay natutulog. There really isn't a space for me kaya kumuha nalang kami ng isang extra bed.
