THE CASANOVA'S GAME

CHAPTER 6

JADE'S POV

I was actually preparing to go to school when my mother knocked on my room to tell me about breakfast.

Kaya naman nag madali na akong mag palit.   Today is another school day, and yesterday was so out of the ordinary.. You know this guy named Xander was  invading my mind, started yesterday when he approached and talked to me till I fell asleep.

Naninibago lang ako because he wasn't that kind of boy who came up to the girls just to request a cell phone number. Knowing that man, he's a Casanova who's not used to that kind of doings.

Pagkatapos  kong  magbihis ay bumaba na ako.. My Mom and Yaya Linda are in busy state of preparing breakfast—my younger brother had already quietly seated in his appointed chair.

"Good morning everyone" I greeted them and they greeted me with a smile; indeed a good contagion to start a day.

The breakfast was really a full tummy.

Pagkatapos kong kumain ay nagmadali na akong umalis dahil medyo late na'ko... Luckily  the road was somehow lacking road rangers.

After looking a good spot to park, I got my ass out of my car and hurriedly run fast as I could, to reach my classroom.

As I entered the room, some are busy having chit chat, others were making their own worlds— like no one was disturbed about my presence.  

Pero okay lang, it would be better that way; if I won't be an apple of the eyes of others. I'm not really that good in socializing with others.

Mas pipiliin kong mabuhay  na malayo sa lahat,  kaysa sa mabuhay  at mapaligiran ng mga taong hindi makita ang halaga ko. My family is enough.. I have my Dad, Mom and Nico.

Sometimes,  I'm asking myself what would it feel to be with friends— hanging out with them having the time of life, pero kapag naiisip ko ang mga bagay na iyon hindi ko maiwasang isipin ang rason kung bakit pinili kong wag maranasan ang mga bagay na iyon.

Time runs so fast, we are already on the midway of the class in our Filipino subjects.

The discussion went well.. Until someone  knocked  the door that made us divert our attentions.

Our Professor made her walk heading to the door to see who's knocking. 

"How can we help you?" The professor asked.

"Good Morning, mag dedeliver lang po ng order para kay Ms. Jade Escobar" a man's voice answered

Nabigla naman ako dahil pangalan ko ang sinabi niya. After a second of shocks, I look at the whole class and all eyes were darting at me.

"Ms. Escobar, you may excuse" Prof.
 
I walked out of the room immediately  para harapin ang taong nangangailangan saakin.

"Ms. Escobar?" the delivery  boy simply asked.

"Yes ako nga po"  saad ko naman 

"Delivery  po para sainyo  ma'am" sabi niya bago inilahad saakin ang  palumpon ng mga bulaklak.

Hindi ko naman agad   ito kinuha dahil hindi naman ako sigurado kung para soaking ba talaga ito. At kung para saakin man Sino naman ang nagkamaling magpadala ng bulaklak saakin.

"Sigurado po ba kayong para saakin po ang mga bulaklak na iyan?" I asked the delivery boy.

He looks at the paper he's holding for verification. Tumango naman siya at tumingin ulit saakin.    " Yes po ma'am,  Jade Desiree Escobar" he replied.
