*Earlier, The Next Day*

Mum's cooking breakfast while we prepare our things for school, I was arranging my pencil case and notebooks inside my bag.

Suddenly Arthur knocked my door and opened it. "Bro, breakfast is ready" he said and close my door back.

I brought my backpack and buttoned my uniform so that Mum won't scold me from being so late and I still don't wear it. I sat on my chair and eat my breakfast with my siblings.

"Tobi?" Mom said.

"Po? Bakit?" I gulped.

"Why are you late yesterday?" She said.

"Uh, I'm into Kuya Ron's place" I nervously smiled at Mom.

"Oh, I thought your one of those kids on the news last night where theres riot under the bridge" Mom.

'Pheew' I thought mum know I'm involved to that incident. Mom's one of the Montero who talk to me even though I ain't look like everyone, she's seeing us all unique in our own way of being Montero because we're her beloved children. Even though she's loud sometimes, I still cherish how mom treat me equally unlike Dad. Who only look at me as his slave.

Naglalakad ako papuntang paaralan mag isa kasi hinahatid ni Dad si Arthur bago siya papasok sa trabaho niya. Everything seems unfair for me but I don't complain for any shit in my life because everyone don't care.

I'm in front of our classroom but I'm a bit early so I used to stay in the covered court playing with the perfect twig I saw in the playground. While playing I saw the brat that I saved yesterday wearing a nice cloak and he's cute bandage.

'He gives me creep from looking at me'

He suddenly bowed in front of me, he's weird. Im so confused why he bowed so I raised a brow and squat sit.

"Arigatōgozaimashita!" He exclaimed.
       (Thank you!)

"D-dōitashimashite..." I stammered.
  (Y-you're welcome)

He raised his head and introduce himself. "Im Philipp, from Greyrant family" he said.

Greyrant seems familiar, parang nadaanan na namin yan ni Kuya Ron.

"Greyrant family? You mean the family who have big mansion and three luxury cars? Near the Old apartment?"

"H-how did you know?" Philipp.

"I'm kinda expert through these streets yah know" taas noo kong pinag yabang ko sanakanya.

"By the way, You read manga?" I asked him.

"Uh-huh" Philipp.

"You watch anime?"

"Yes everyday!" he exclaimed.

'He sure is from a rich family -,-' I subconsciously said. And I wave wave my twig like a sword.

"What section are you... Mr?" Philipp.

"Oh, 5th section ... I am Tobi..." The bell just ring and we need to go to our class room so I need to run so that I won't be late.

"To-bi?" Philipp confusely said.
