My first day of our second quarter went well, despite Yessenia being my seatmate for the rest of the semester.
Wala akong kakilala sa room na nalipitan ko so I have no choice but to depend on Yessenia when our teacher told us to chose a partner for our term paper.
"Uuwi ka?" tanong ni Yessenia isang beses nang matapos ang klase namin.
"Yup, as usual." walang gana kong sagot habang inaayos ang gamit.
"Na try mo ng maglunch sa canteen?"
"No."
"Ayaw mong itry?"
"I'm not interested. Malapit ang bahay, mas gusto ko don."
Palaging ganito ang scene namin ni Yessenia. It's been three days since I got transferred here and she would always reach out to me.
"Well, of course because it's your home. Pero why don't you try the meal served in the canteen? Masarap kaya."
I don't get the it why she's being all friendly to me. I am very transparent and I hope she can see through me that I hate her.
"Thanks but no thanks."
Sinuot ko ang backpack bago naunang umalis kay Yessenia. I know I needed to make a friend pero hindi ko kayang makipag plastikan kay Yessenia.
There's something in me that really hates her. Hindi ko alam bakit o ano, I just hate her and you can't just change that.
Kasabay ng paglabas ko ay ang paglabas rin ni Reinziel galing sa kaharap naming klase. I guess that is her room.
"Hazel, hi!"
Nilapitan ko si Reinziel.
"This is your room?" sabay turo ko sa klaseng pinanggalingan niya.
Nagsisilabasan na rin ang ibang klase dahil lunch time na.. The hallways are crowded whenever it's dismissal.
"Uh huh." tumango siya, "Magkatapat lang tayo ng room ah, I told Aziel. I hope you don't mind."
"It's okay,"
Hindi nagtagal ang usapan namin ni Reinziel dahil nagmamadali ako. Isang oras lang ang lunch time namin kaya kailangan kong umuwi na.
Nevielle wasn't in his room when I checked.
Mabilis akong naglalakad palabas ng building habang nagtetext kay Nevielle. Hindi na naman ako hinintay!
Ako:
Asan ka?
Pagkababa ko ng cellphone ko ay may nabangga ako.
"Oh.. I'm so sorry, hindi ko sinasadya," I apologized.
May dala itong pink na box. It seems important because she dodged it when she bumped into me.
