Araw araw, walang kumpas. Halos sanay na akong may bubungad sa akin sa labas ng bahay. Kung hindi mangaayang lumabas, magpapatulong naman sa assignments. They always find a way just to annoy me... Or am I still annoyed by them?
I open our classrooms door and went inside. I stopped for a while when I noticed that their not... complete. Where is their Master?
He used to be the one who get in school first, maybe he woke up late. I shrugged my shoulder and silently sat in my sit.
"Good morning Selina!" I heard them shouted at my back, I just raised my hand as a sign of... greeting them back?
Our professor finally came, and the class goes on until the next professor and the next professor and the next professor came... but he didn't come.
The bell rang as a sign of a lunch break. Everyone stood up except from me, still looking at the door waiting for him--- wait, what?! WHY AM I LOOKING FOR HIM?! I should be thankful he's not going to school today... No insulter. No annoying Guy. No Taylor for a Day!
"Uyy, nakatingin sa pintuan. Hinihintay si Taylor!"
I gave Clyde a death glare before I fix my things. They made a circle beside me, I don't when this started but they always eat with me instead of going to cafeteria.
"Hinihintay mo si Taylor, Selina?" clyde asked.
I can feel their stares at me.
"No. Why would I?"
"Wee?" mapanuksong tanong ni Kurt.
"Totoo ba yan, Selina?" Emman Asked.
I looked at them, sighed. "No. Bakit ko siya hahanapin? Masaya pa nga ako na wala siya."
"Sus! Pero nakita kita kanina pang tingin ng tingin sa pintuan."
I rolled my eyes at them.
"Selina, oh." Aljon suddenly led me a paper bag.
Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay, what's that?
"Food. Pinapabigay ni master. Baka daw kasi hindi ka kumain ngayon kapag hindi siya nakabantay." Aljon explained.
He made me a... food? Did he cook it?!
Agad ko itong kinuha at binuklat. It has a two tupperware, a thumbler, and a plastic with spoon and fork. I open it, the one Tupperware is full with rice, andami naman! While the other one has a different food, egg, bacon, fried chicken and a piece of apple.
Mukha ba akong patay gutom?!
"Andami naman niyan! Pahingi!" emman said.
"Sana all may rice, egg, fried chicken with extra apple." Clyde said while staring at my food.
Hindi ako pala kain, and He knows that. Why would he bring me a lot of food? Is this for all of us?
"Hati tayo dito."
"No. Sayo lang daw yan. Kapag hindi mo daw inubos isusumbong kita sa kanya." Ani ni aljon.
"So? Ano naman kapag sinumbong mo ako?"
"Hindi ka na daw niya bati." He answered.
I chuckled, what a childish answer. I didn't hesitate to open it and started to eat it. I don't know what happened why he absent. It's unusual. I think I will ask him tomorrow.
