Chapter 2

"Debbie, gusto mo ba palit nalang tayo ng upuan?" Nate asked.

Umiling ako. "I'm okay na dito, Nate. 'Di naman kasi porket anak ako ng mayor, may pa-special treatment na ako here sa school," I replied. "Lahat kaya ng meron ako, pinaghi-hirapan ko!"

I made sure talaga na maririnig 'yun ng katabi ko. Takbo-takbo pa siya kagabi tapos we're classmates naman pala? Humanda ka sakin, kuya!

"Lofranco, may sinasabi ka?"

Napa-tingin ako kay Ma'am na naka-tingin sakin. My eyes widened. Shocks, napa-lakas ba 'yung voice ko?! Lumingon 'yung katabi ko at nag-takip pa ng bibig so he could laugh!

Ugh, kairita!

"Po, ma'am? Wala po akong sinasabi, ma'am," I said sabay irap sa katabi ko.

"Wala po 'kong sinasabi, ma'am," gaya niya.

I glared at him. "Shut up."

I looked around to find Santana or Valerie but they're obviously making iwas sa akin! When Santana met my eyes, bigla lang siyang ngumiti tapos nag-peace sign. I rolled my eyes.

Ugh, kairita!

"As I was saying before I was rudely interrupted," Ma'am said. Rudely?! "The SSG elections will take place later this month at bilang pilot section, ine-expect namin na maraming tatakbo mula sa inyo. Makakaasa ba kami?"

Everyone nodded and cheered. I quickly looked at Val. There's that smile on her lips again.

This is her time of the year again.

"Consider it done, ma'am," she replied.

She's like the SSG connoisseur of our batch kasi. Four years na siyang officer and 'di pa napuputol 'yung winning streak niya.

Ako? Student council's not my cup of tea.

Pero dahil sa clout-chaser Claudia na 'yun, I'm afraid my plans would change.

The plan is simple lang naman since I failed the entrance exam para sa senior high na gusto ni Daddy para sakin. Graduate with flying colors and get into the dream school—University of the Philippines.

Obviously, SSG wasn't part of the plan.

"Well, very good," Ma'am said. "Mukhang magiging very competitive ang section ninyo, ha. Keep it up, huwag lang lalaki ang ulo."

For the longest time kasi, solid na kami as the star section. May mga nababawas cause they transfer schools pero hindi na kami nadadagdagan. Hindi naman sa big deal to be called the star section pero it comes with perks kasi. Kayo 'yung dinadala sa off-campus competitions and seminars, kayo 'yung inaalagaan kasi asset kayo ng school and a lot more 'privileges' kaya everyone wants to be one of us. Pero dahil 'di naman nila kami matitibag, they resort to wanting to beat us.

That's why nagtataka talaga ako as to how this guy right here is on our section.

Mali lang ba siya ng pasok kanina tapos nahiya nalang lumabas kasi nakipag-unahan pa sakin just to get a seat? Ugh, kairita talaga siya!

Kalahati lang 'yung desk ng armchair na 'to, oh!

"Ma'am!" Shay called. "Mukha pong may bago kaming kaklase?"

"Tama ka dyan, 'nak," sabi ni ma'am then looked our way. "Ceralde, would you mind introducing yourself to the class?"

What—legit na classmate namin siya?!

Look who's got connections now!

"Sure, ma'am," he replied. He looked at me pa bago tumayo. Ugh, so nakakaasar!
