Chapter 3

"Marvelous! Jemima, you should join the dance club with Bridget!" I shook my head as the P.E. teacher smiled at us. Siniko ako ni Bridget while grinning at making her brow arch. I know what she wants, she has been dreaming of me since the day we first practice that I must audition for the dance club and maybe join the school marching band, but I say no, now the teacher is saying, it seems that I have no choice.

Kinabit ni Bridget ang kanyang kamay sa'king kamay. I know some Tagalog words now, but those deep words are that I can't really understand. The language teacher in Comon is really the best, minsan, I tried to talk to Kori is tagalog, that made her applause because some words, we can talk tagalog already.

Kori smiled and she waved at me, from the counter, I walked to our spot, but the moment I put the tray on the table, some tray was there too. Ii silently groaned when I saw it was Jewel and Jessica. The twins.

Jessica crossed her arms and look at me from head to toe as I fix my glasses. "Well, well, look what we have here. The British Jemima." She said like it was an insult.

"What do you want Jessica?" my system was fragile like the cloud, that if you touch it, it will break into pieces and never be glued back together again.

She scoffed and lean at the table. I sighed, I know what she wants even though she wouldn't tell me. I lift the tray and gestured Kori that we need to go but she was just staring at the twins and smiked. "Hindi ko naman kita ang pangalan niyo dito, wala kayong karapatan na paalisin kami." She uttered like a bold person, there is no sign of fear in her face while saying those brave words.

"Oh yeah Cortez? This table is donated from my parents."

"Donated na nga diba? Binigay na, wala na kayong karapatan pa." Kori said again and gestured that I need to sit down but I shook my head. I don't want to get any trouble, not with these twins, but before I could even speak, a loud scream was uttered form Jessica's mouth.

My mouth dropped open when I saw grape juice all over her body as Bridget smirked from the left corner of the cafeteria, a boy, our age was holding a cup, he poured it as Jessica run away, everybody cheered and acted like nothing happened.

"Are you okay Jemima?" It was the voice of Bianca, her voice was never angelic, it was like very dangerous, but not as evil as her twin sister Bridget. Speaking of her, she run towards us with a different expression she had before, her worried face was directed on me, but I remained serious.

"You should have not done that Bridget." I scolded her, her expression immediately changed the moment I spoke. I know she is capable of doing these things, I know she can easily manipulate people, especially men, but you do not need evil to defeat evil as well.
