FIRST ACT
HINDI ALAM ng transferee'ng si Madison ang pwedeng gawin nang makita ang mga nagsikalat sa sahig na mga sira-sira nang bag ng mga kaklase niya. Lahat ito ay punit-punit at gutay-gutay na ang mga itsura, lahat ito, pero maliban lang sa bag niya.
Nababalot ngayon ng pangamba ang buong katawan ni Madison. “D-d'yos ko. S-sinong may gawa nito?” tanong niya sa kawalan na alam niyang walang sino man ang kayang sagutin siya.
What should I do?! What should I do?!
“Right here! Hurry up, she's still there,” boses ni Sapphire na nagpalingon kay Madison sa bandang pintuan kung saan nagsisimula nang magsidatingan ang mga kaklase niya. “You see? I told she can't be trusted,” wika ni Sapphire dahilan para tuluyan nang nagsipasokan ang mga kaklase nila. Halos lahat ay parang hindi gusto ang mga bagong itsura ng mga bag nila.
No. Please, it wasn't me.
“Hey, you bitch!” Akmang babalingan na sana ni Madison ang isang lumapit sa kanya ng mahagip n'ya ang isang napakalakas na sampal nito sa pisngi nya.
Ni hindi pa nga s'ya nakakabawi sa pagkabigla nang hilahin naman nito ang buhok n'ya at d'on n'ya nakita ang galit na galit na mukha ni Amy—isa din sa mga kaklase niya at kaibigan ni Kimberly.
“Nag-recess lang kami tapos ganito na ang babalikan namin?! Alam mo ba kung magkanong halaga ang bag na 'to para lang paglaruan mo ng basta-basta, ha?!” sigaw nito sa kanya habang ipinagdidikdikan ang sira nitong bag sa mukha niya.
“P-please let me go. I-I didn't do it, I swear. P-please, nasasaktan ako,” naluluhang pakiusap ni Madison dito na kahit isang salita ay parang hindi nakaabot sa awa ni Amy.
“What happening here?” tanong ng bagong dating na si Kimberly na lumapit sa sitwasyon nila. “Amy, I don't understand. Why are you hurting Madison, hah?”
“Eh, kasi naman, look what she have done to my bag-our bags! Sinira n'yang, bwisit s'ya!” pagdudurong sagot ni Amy kay Madison na walang kalaban-laban.
“Is it true, Madison?” baling ni Kimberly kay Madison na ngayon ay lumuluha na.
“H-hindi! Hindi 'yan totoo. K-kakarating ko lang nang inabot sa 'kin ni Sapphire ang cutter na 'to. T-tapos pinagbibintangan na nila ako.” Sinabi ni Madison kung ano ang totoo ngunit parang napaka-imposible s'yang paniwalaan ng mga ito.
“You're lying, Madison! Alam nilang wala akong rason para sirain ang mga bag nila, especially sa 'kin. At anong pinagsasabi mong cutter, eh, it looks yours naman 'yang hawak mo!” depensa ni Sapphire dahilan para matuon ang pansin ni Madison sa cutter. At d'on natakasan ng hininga si Madison nang makitang pagmamay-ari nga niya ang bagay dahil sa kaniyang palatandaan dito. Paanong hindi man lang niya napansin ang bagay na 'to kanina?
Madison's hands feel weak and dropped the cutter to the floor. Her head is spinning, she felt dizziness from the people's judgemental eyes looking at her. Once again she felt betrayed.
Madison tries to run away but she failed to passed out from Calier's friends who's already blocking the room's only door.
Boni was grinning at her, evilly. “Going somewhere? Or doing old tactics again,” he said making Madison stepped back.
“Aww. Is the wild kitty going back to her mommy?” Hanz joined mocking Madison.
“Hey, guys, quit it already! Para kayong mga bata. There must be a misunderstanding.” Kimberly tries to hushed them off but seems like no one wants to be on her side by now.
“Quit? You mean this quit?” Calier start to took everyone's attention by showing up a red folder.
Madison's eyes grew wide when she recognized the red folder was hers. It was hers, and it contains her dark history. The junior high school student, Althea, reached that to her earlier saying she just found it somewhere and seek what's inside for God sake! Nawala sa isip niyang nasa bag niya pala ito itinago at hindi akalaing pagdidiskitahan din pala ito ng mga kaklase niya.
She wanted to snatched it from Calier's hand but she failed again.
“Calier, akin na 'yan! H-hindi sa 'kin 'yan! A-akin na, please.” Madison plead like she was praying on a saint who's never gonna listen to her.
Calier scoffed. “Yeah right. Then why are you trying to take it back, if you're saying it is not yours, huh? Tell me,” he taunt, but Madison is too afraid to say a words that might use against hers.
“Why overreacting, Madison? Wala ka naman yatang itinatago d'yan, 'di ba?” nanunuksong sabi ni Ruby sabay hablot ng folder sa kamay ni Calier.
Susubukan na naman sanang bawiin ni Madison ito kay Ruby nang bigla nalang may sumipa ng isang upuan, dahilan ng mabangga nito ang binti niya. Pero sa halip na tulungan ay binuntotan pa ito ng mga malalakas na tawanan.
“Bakit? Ano ba kasi 'to?” Natatawang sabi ni Ruby sabay labas ng mga lamang papeles sa loob ng red folder na iyon. Agad nawala ang mga ngiti ni Ruby nang masilayan ang mga lamang litrato ng folder. Parang dumulas ang mga ito sa kamay niya kaya't nagsikalat ang mga papel at dyaryo sa sahig dahilan para makita ng lahat ang nakaraang pilit na ibinabaon sa limot ni Madison.
*Madison Montgomery expelled by the USM from attempting to kill all of her classmates, including one teacher are on a critical condition.*
*A devil in disguise. Madison Montgomery, the majorette leader gone crazy. Half of her classmates are on a critical condition caused by herself.*
*Calling for other school's attention, don't let this girl enter your gates.*
Napapikit nalang si Madison nang muling makita ang mga naging kalagayan ng dating kaklase n'ya. Ang iba ay putok ang mga labi, namamaga ang mga mata, mga x-ray ng mga butong nabali at na-dislocate, at mga resultang malabo nang gumaling ang iba dahil sa mga naiwang trauma sa mga katawan nila.
“Oh M... Is this for real? I mean, you are that madjorrette?” si Seven ang unang nakabawi.
“Wait, you knew this?” Amy asked, confusingly.
“Of course! Three years ago hot-tea in Twitter. Nawala din agad before one-week without knowing the clear detail from the leakers since it is the USM, where their reputation is the revolution. Rumor has it that may problema daw kasi sa pag-iisip ang majorette na 'yon, kaya nga nabansagan na madjorrette. And that rumors got forgotten immediately when lots of issue and scandal got leaked and exposed. I just can't believe that it was true and it was her... Madison,” paliwanag ni Seven sabay baling kay Madison nanigas sa kinatatayuan niya.
“Oh, bakit parang inosenteng natahimik ka d'yan? Base sa nabasa ko dito mukhang malakas ka naman para manakit ng mga inosenteng estudyante. Gano'n ka ba kalakas ko sadyang namimili ka lang ng makakalaban mo?” Nanunuyang tinulak-tulak ni Boni si Madison. “Ano?! Hindi mo kayang lumaban o sadyang takot ka lang kumalaban ng isang black belter—”
“Ano ba, Bon—”
Nais lamang sanang umiwas ni Madison sa gulo pero naunahan na s'ya sa isang buwelong suntok si Boni sa mukha niya. Hindi pa nakuntento si Boni, pumakawala pa ito ng isang malayang sipa dahilan ng tuluyan nang natumba si Madison sa mga upuan.
“O-oh my God! I'm so sorry, Madison. B'winisit mo na naman kasi ako, eh. S-sorry talaga,” ani Boni na parang kasalanan pa talaga 'yon ni Madison. “Ano? May sasabihin ka?”
Nasaktan man pero dahil sa kanina pa siya ang binu-b'wisit ni Boni ay hindi na kontrol ni Madison ang sarili na sabihin ang mga salitang ikakagalit pala nito.
“Boni, bading ka!” Madison shouted out loud without thinking, but it made others laugh. Cause maybe it's true. But she can't take it back anymore.
Boni became furious. With no hesitation, Boni grabbed a chair and throw it to Madison. Feeling not satisfied yet, he attacked and continue to beat Madison like they has no boundary for violation.
Some wants to stop Boni, but others seems satisfied and wanted to see more and keep the moment by filming the scenes.
These jerks are insane. Especially for some other girls whose enjoy watching a guy molesting their peer.
Madison is starting to spitting red saliva with her nose is bleeding. She wanted to defend herself but she was afraid to might got hurt a lot, so she stayed in cover. Hoping her tears is enough to woke their mercy for her. If ever they have.
“B-boni, t-tama na...” pagmamakaawa ni Madison sa napuntahang sulok. “Ah-I'm s-sorry.”
“You're sorry, huh? You're sorry? Then take responsibilit—”
“Boni, stop! Please, stop! I can't take this. Please!!!” Puminagitna si Kimberly sa eksena dahilan ng matigilan si Boni sa pananakit kay Madison.
“Seriously, Kim?! Now you're defending he—” Hindi ni Boni napatuloy ang sasabihin nang mapansin ang mukha ni Kimberly. “Y-you're crying? Why are you crying? W-who did this to you, hah? Tell me!” Napansin din ng lahat ang mga napansin ni Boni kay Kimberly, maging sila ay nagtaka na din.
“OMG, girl. Who? Tell us, who? Is it Trever? Tell us.” Sapphire showed her concerned to her friend, Kimberly, by hugging and caressing her back, the other did the same thing.
“N-no. I-it's nothing and i-it's not T-trever...” Humahagulgol na sagot ni Kimberly sa likod ng mga palad nito.
“Please, girl, tell us. You're making us worried even more,” pamimilit ni Amy kaya sinubukan ni Kimberly na kumalma para makasagot ng maayos.
Kimberly sighed first. “E-earlier kasi no'ng umupo si Madison sa katabi ko...” Naluluha pa rin na panimula nito, “S-she poked my side belly using her pen's tip, and it's still hurts. T-then she's starting to whisper me a very threatening words. I thought she was just fooling around so I ignore that, until these files revealed her identity. Ah-I was scared. I just wanted to be kind and be close to her, but I should've known her intention are the opposite. Now I'm regretting.” Matapos maka-paliwanag ay saka pinagpatuloy ni Kimberly ang pagda-drama niya, “Hhu~ Hhu~ Hhu~ Hhu!”
She's. Such. A. Bitch!
Unbelievable! How could she betray Madison like this. The poor girl needs help and she just make it even worst. She thought she was on her side and that's her mistake. It's all just for a show. A fake hero who's starting to act like a victim just to make the standing villain to suffer even more by the world's cruelty.
Madison is not that stupid, she'll understand if this class don't want her. They could've just said it at the first place, not slowly treating the poor girl so badly. As if they're the perfect class on Earth when their behavior can't be compare to a preschooler.
Madison felt her body in so much pain but carefully stand herself up and find a grip to held on.
“Ah. So tatayo ka pa, ah? Eh, kung pilayin na kaya kita—”
“Boni!” Si Calier iyon na naka-pamulsa habang katabi ang mga ibang kaibigan nito.
“What?” iritadong tugon ni Boni kay Calier.
“Stop being a gay,” sabi ni Calier kay Boni bago balingan si Madison. “And I suggest you to leave now.”
Kahit na hindi na sabihin ay gagawin naman talaga iyon ni Madison. After picking up her things, Madison rushed to left this unit and run where she can find herself being alone again since the strict gate is blind and won't let her yet to passed until the schedule will.
Tears after tears, that kept rolling down from her eyes. She couldn't believe that she have to experience this pain again. From trusting and from being defenceless. How she wished she didn't try again.
How could they tricked me like this?
