War

"Twisted and turns with my greatest revenge."

Chapter 8

War

I woke up feeling great. Last night, just as I was about to fall asleep, I received a wonderful surprise. And I guess I fell asleep at three o'clock last night while worrying about an email from the publishing house. Of course, this is my dream! And I intend to reign over the world with my words and the worlds I build!

I enthusiastically opened the window and proceeded to the door. I hummed my favourite song by my favourite boy band.

Then, seconds later, I started singing the tune.

"Kumapit ka lamang at huwag kang bibitaw! Sa hamon ng buhay, paniniwala mo ang isigaw! Oh!"

"Sienna, bababa ka? O itatapon ko 'tong kaldero sa'yo!"! "I stopped singing when I heard Kuya Siello's sudden shout. Kuya really ruins the moment sometimes, like last night. After I screamed, he suddenly ran and broke my door. Fortunately, he believed that I saw a cockroach. Isa rin 'tong gago.

Dali-dali akong nagtungo ng banyo at inayos ang aking sarili sa pagpasok. I made everything fine before I left my room.

When I got down, I observed Kuya Siello with a bill for water and electricity. The bill is certainly huge, as evidenced by the look on his face after seeing the paper.

"Magkano ba, Kuya?" I asked. He faced the receipts, and my eyes widened as I saw how much we were going to spend this month. Electricity costs about 2,000 pesos, but water costs only 1,000 pesos. What the hell? For the past month, we have only paid half of everything.

"Kuya, nararamdaman mo ba ang nararamdaman ko?" I said while stunned by the bills.

"Ang alin ba?" Tanong nito.

"Mabubutas pitaka natin dito sa bills. Tingnan mo naman. Ang laki ng babayaran natin, oh!"

"Okay lang. Hindi tayo magbabayad niyan. Nandiyan naman si Ate Sierra mo."

"Hoy, Siello-so (seloso)! Magbabayad tayong lahat sa ginastos natin sa kuryente at tubig." Ate Sierra suddenly appeared with bacon from the kitchen. Nakaayos na rin ito at handa na sa kanyang pagpasok.

"Sierra-Sierra (sira-sira), alam naman natin na mas malaki na-consume mo no'ng nakaraang linggo. Hinayaan mong nakabukas ang TV no'ng isang linggo, naka-on ang PC sa loob ng ilang oras nang hindi mo ginagamit at bakit ka---"

"Ah, so ako lang pala ang palagiang nag-o-on ng TV sa bahay?! Ako lang ba? Ako lang ba."

Because of their argument, I quickly grabbed bacon and a hotdog off the table and departed. I ignored their machine-gun-like lecturing since they were ranting for breakfast in the morning.

I quickly rode the Jeep and got on.

When I arrived at the university, as usual, after inspecting my bags, they let me in.

When I entered the classroom, I immediately noticed Levi's form in the doorway. He's just standing there; it's odd knowing that the class is often chaotic at times, but no one among my classmates made any noise.

I was ready to enter when Levi blocked his hand. I glanced at him wickedly, but he only replied with a frigid expression. It was meant by Iceman. Because his glare was so chilly.

"Padaan po," I said respectfully.

"No, you can't pass. Samahan mo muna ako."

My gosh! It's the first time I can look at him this close. As in, daig niya pa ang convo ng nang ghost sa sobrang lamig.
