꧁The only rose among the thorns꧂

Chapter 6: Mall incident

•••••••••••

Cassidy Jean's POV

Days went by and so far, none of them are going too far with their pranks.

"Stupid."

Nakaramdam ako ng malamig na likido sa ulo ko, it's a bottle of water. I sighed as I feel it run through my uniform. Right... None of them are going too far...

I slowly wiped my face as I stand in the middle of the crowd. Literal na middle of the crowd kasi nakapalibot sakin lahat ng estudyante. Hayy... I already expected this but I can't help but get pissed.

"Will you leave our section now?"

I looked at the person who asked that and saw Raven. He's holding an empty water bottle. Ginagago na naman ako ng kingina. I gave him my usual blank expression then answered him with a quick no. Why would I leave? This isn't enough to make me leave.

I walked past him and went towards the bathroom. Mabilis lang akong nagbihis dahil may dala naman akong extra shirt.

Ha...

Nakakapagod rin pala ang ganito. Wala naman kasi akong ganitong pasensya noon. Kahit nga paghihintay sa isang pagkain ay nahihirapan ako.

Section F are seriously doing anything they can to make me leave. Ganon nila ka hindi gusto ang pananatili ko dun tss. Para namang gustong gusto ko ring manatili. I've been wanting to leave but each time I do, I remember that old man. There's no point in hiding if I give up this easily. I was able to hide from that old man for a year and I know I can do that for another year. But will I really be able to do it?

When I'm the only rose among the thorns?

I was about to leave my cubicle when I overheard some random girls in their conversation. ACCIDENTALLY.

"Nakita niyo ba yung ginawa ni Raven sa bagong guy?"

"Aba'y malamang, anong tingin mo samin bulag?"

"Gaga hindi yun! Ano kasi... Ang gwapo niya wahahaha!"

Nangunot ang noo ko sa narinig ko. Are they talking about me?

"Oo nga! Isang linggo palang yun dito diba?"

"Yeah. Pansin ko ngang siya ang laman ng usapan ng karamihan."

"Can't blame them. He looks so fine. Ano ngang pangalan nun? Hahanapin ko beke leng nemen."

"Ej yata beh. Ayy hindi--Bj?ewan ko!"

It's Cj! Also, bakit nila ako pinag-uusapan? Naubusan na ba sila ng topic?

"Pero sayang beh. Ba't hinahayaan niya lang na ganunin siya ng buong section F?"

"I know right? Ako yung naaawa sakanya eh."

"Alam kong naaawa ka lang sakanya dahil gwapo siya."

"Siguro hahahaha tara na nga baliw."

Narinig kog bumukas ang pinto ng Cr tas sumara ulit. Lumabas na ba sila? Sana! Inilapit ko ang tenga ko para pakinggan ang boses nila. It's quiet. Wala na ba?

Nang makumpirmang wala na sila ay dun lang ako nakahinga ng maluwag. Shit. I'm pretty sure I checked every cubicle before going in. May lagusan ba dito? Portal ganun? Muntikan ako dun eh tangina. Dahan-dahan kong binuksan ang pinto, nang makitang wala ni isang tao ay tuluyan akong lumabas. Damn... There are some girls like them here too, huh? Sa bawat paaralan, di talaga yata maiiwasan ang mga ganon. Girls that are crazy for handsome guys tss. Not that I can talk, I'm crazy for handsome guys too. Guy's that are fictional though.
