After the Quiz bee at the auditorium, pumunta na ang mga students sa kanya-kanya nilang mga gagawin.
There's a bazaar for the foundation day. And the 10th graders was assigned to do there own concept on there booth.
"Shara," Alexa called me habang nasa booth kami.
"What?" -ako
"Ikaw na mag-isip ng ilalagay sa booth, walang maisip yung mga classmates natin," sabi ni Alexa.
"Bakit si Shara? Ikaw yung president diba? Ba't di ikaw yung mag-isip?" sabi ni Dana.
"Nag-iisip pa ako para sa Ms. Wasuthorn High bukas ng gabi, I'll represent our section, marami akong iniisip," Alexa said.
"Hindi nga officer si Shara eh, problema niya pa ba yun?" -Dana
"Don't worry Dana, ako na ang bahala," sabi ko kay Dana. "Just make sure na wala kang reklamo sa gagawin ko sa booth natin," sabi ko naman kay Alexa.
Alexa stared at me with doubt. "Okay," she said and left.
"Ano bang plano mo?" -Dana
"You want my books, right?' -me
"Huh?" -Dana
"You want my books, then buy it," I said.
"Ibebenta mo yung books mo?" -Dana
"I'm done reading those books," I said.
"Lahat yun? Yung nasa library sa bahay niyo?" -Dana
"Of course not, every book I have has a copy, yung copies yung ibebenta natin, but first we'll need to organize this booth into a horrible tambayan," I said.
"Seriously?" -Dana
After talking to Dana, she instructed our classmates to get and buy the needed materials for designing the booth.
I called my father to send me those unused copies of my books at home, horror storybooks.
I managed how every detail in the booth was put into proper positions. The books are displayed, there are spider web designs in the booth, the chairs are designed like tombs. My classmates volunteered to act as lost souls and zombies, some preferred to be fairies like Dana, Dana also manages on horror story telling in front of the booth. Me? I just wore my uniform.
Everyone in our section seems to enjoy their roles in the booth. And many students went to our booth to enjoy the creepy vibes.
"What is this?" Alexa complained as she returned to our booth.
"My idea," I said.
"What have you done?" -Alexa
"I told you, hindi ka dapat magreklamo dahil wala ka namang naitulong, mag-focus ka sa Ms. Wasuthorn High na gusto mo."
Alexa just glared at me, and left again, is that all she can do? Poor loser.
Some teachers went around checking the booth, with the student council president Wave.
"Interesting, whose books have you displayed here?" Sir Alvin asked.
"I volunteered my books to be sold here, and I think I gained enough money for my sale," I said.
"Nice booth, interesting," the Director Wasuthorn said.
"Yes," Wave agreed.
The teacher's left our booth, at nagpaiwan si Wave.
"Di ba dapat sumama ka sa kanila?" I said.
"You're booth was the last to be checked I think they can handle the decisions without me," Wave said.
"Okay," I said.
"Hi Wave, nandito ka ba para maghanap ng mababasa or para hanapin ang magpapatibok sa heart ng friend ko?" Dana suddenly said.
"I'll take the second option," sabi ni Wave.
"OMG?" -Dana
"Dana," Mike suddenly came to the booth with Angelo.
"Oy Mike, Angelo, mabuti pumunta kayo dito, maganda ba yung booth namin?" Dana sked the two guys.
"Bakit ganito ang ginawa niyo sa booth niyo?" -Angelo
"May problema ba sa booth namin?" -me
"Wag mong pansinin to si Angelo, he hates black," sabi ni Mike.
"Ayyy ganun ba," Dana said.
"Anong stories ba meron dyan?" -Mike asked.
"We have stories about Dark elements, like ghosts, zombies and meron ding vampires," Dana said.
"Kaya pala nandito ang isa," Angelo said as he stared at Wave.
"Huh?" -Dana
Wave faced Angelo, he said, "kung hindi mo gusto ang booth nila, you can just leave, you don't have to insult anyone here." -Wave
"I'm not insulting anyone, I'm just trying to describe someone." -Angelo
"Stop such nonsense conversation, wag kayong gumawa ng eksena dito sa harap ng booth namin, kung hindi kayo bibili o magbabasa, you better leave." -me
"Ohh, Dana babalik na lang kami mamaya, chill muna kami saglit," Mike told Dana as he pulls Angelo away from the booth.
"Okay," Dana said.
"Shars, ask ko muna yung classmates natin if done na nilang i-bake yung creepy cupcakes," Dana told me and left.
"I'm sorry for that," Wave said.
"It's okay, may personal yata kayong away ni Angelo, ayokong manghimasok pero nanotice ko lang kase," I said.
"It's okay, it wasn't just about the both of us, so I can't tell you," he said.
"You don't have to, hindi naman ako namimilit," I said.
"Ahmm, so, bakit ganitong booth ang naisip mong gawin?" -Wave
"I like reading horror stories, so I thought maybe some students might get interested with my books," I said.
"Really?" -Wave
"Ako naman ang magtatanong, bakit kilala mo ko?" -ako
"Do you really wanna know why?" -Wave
"It won't be a big deal if malaman ko, diba?" -ako
"I don't know." -Wave
"Then just tell why and how did you know me." -ako
"Because I'm interested in you," Wave said.
"What?" the people near and in the booth suddenly exclaimed. Echosera din tong mga to eh noh.
