How To Be A Nerd To Troublemaker Princess

15- How The Nerd Discovers Code Names?

Carl's P.O.V.

Since when did Kelly and Jane got to know each other?

Looking at them now, they looked so close. Surprising for the whole class, pati na sa amin na matagal ng kaibigan ni Kelly. If I would put a rational calculation sa pagpasok dito ni Jane, it's easy to say na dito niya nakilala ni Kelly sa school. Pero kailan? Ngayon lang pumasok si Kelly. Yes, he showed up last time nung nagkameron ng slime war sina Dare at Jane sa sahig, but that's only because it was lunch time. Free siyang pumasok.

"Do you think Kelly knows her matagal na?" Theo lowly whispered with his shoulder close to mine.

His eyes are on his notes, kahit wala namang nakasulat dun. He used it to make it looked like we're talking about the group activities. We got no space, lalo na't Mel is here. Kaya kung may mag-uusap about something na may kinalaman kay Dare, kailangan naming tumahik para hindi siya maghinala.

"Kaya pala he's here nung past days. Diba bawal pa siyang pumasok? Baka si Jane ang pakay niya. Magkakilala nga ata sila." He added.

Iyun din ang nasa isip ko. There could be a chance na magkakilala nga ng matagal sila ni Jane. Kelly has school permission to not come in classes dahil dapat wala talaga siya dito. He should be out of the country for some business things for his family, pero napaaga ata ang dating dahil sa game ni Dare. Alam na namin kung bakit.

"Look, they look close. Didn't you heard what he calls her? He called her Ja-ne! They must have been close noon pa. Naku lagot nan si Dare. Baka childhood friend pa 'yan ni Kelly!"

Ngumiwi ako kay Theo. Ang galing talaga niyang gumawa ng issue. Wala pa nga kaming nalalaman pero may conclusion na kaagad siya.

"Kelly seemed to know her. You two should tell Dare to stop." Mel said as she opens some book pages.

Opps, she got the clue. She advised it dahil kung iisipin this is a good reason para mailayo si Dare kay Jane.

"Don't worry, alam ni Dare kung kailan titigil. Di mo siya kailangan i-remind." Theo's words came out strong and denial.

"Just saying. There's no reason for him to be obsess with her for his game." She throws a dagger look at Jane's way.

"Sure kaming alam na ni Kelly ang nangyayari. He should have done something about it kahapon pa." I brushed off the topic.

Mahabang usapan kung ipagpapatuloy pa. I'm sure Kelly is not oblivious to Dare's plan. Kung magkakilala nga sila ni Jane, he would do something about it, which is I think true. Kelly was there last Saturday, he saw how Jane splashed water to Dare. By that time, he probably had the idea who is Jane, because Dare also did called her 'Doll' that moment. Tsaka nakita niya ang nangyari kahapon. The only question is, anong gagawin niya? Is it for Dare's plan or a contradiction to it?

"Okay class! By now you must have all your questions and words to collect for your research. Now, pick someone in your group to do that in the library! The remaining time is all yours to finish the part A. We will do part B tomorrow!" Our teacher announced.

All my thoughts about Kelly and Jane dispersed. Seriously, I hate this group activity!

"None of you want to do the research, so I guess I'm going." Mel stands.

I didn't object. Ayaw kong mag-isang gumawa ng research ng walang kasama. It'll be a decision for the group with one's opinion, that'll be hard for me.

"Alex, where are those two going?"

I heard Sam asked from the back. Both me and Theo turned to listen to them.

"I don't know. Jane should be the one who's doing our research, but Kelly wants to come with her. I let them because most of the points will come from it. They'll be doing that and I'll be doing the rest from here."
