How To Be A Nerd To Troublemaker Princess

36- How To Tag A Nerd?

Thea's P.O.V.

"What's happening between your bully and you?" L asked the question na gumugulo sa aming lahat.

Sa nakaraang linggo, pansin namin ang distant sa kanila ni Dare. Ngayon, paunti pa ng paunti ang interaction nila. Peace between them is good, pero nakakatakot.

"Kaya nga Jane, are you seriously having an appeasement or is this just a break?" I added.

She acknowledged the man who are we talking about by looking at where he is, nanatili siyang tahimik habang nagtatali ng sapatos. "Hindi appeasement, baka resolution na."

"Wow, paano?!" I tried to sound like excited pero hindi talaga eh. Bakit nasa-sad ako?

I looked again sa parte nila Dare. Pinag-uusapan ata nila about how we glance at them. Kanina ko pa napapansin, Dare has been looking and checking how's Jane.

To tell you honestly, kami ni L ang naiilang. Kami kasi ang nako-concious pagnakatingin siya or sila sa amin. In every moment atang we crossed paths, he's been looking at us. It's really a burden. Especially at the cafeteria. Pagnakatingin si Dare, I got hard time swallowing or chewing my food like a pristine lady. He's making me nervous, whilst Jane can normally act just herself. Seriously, gusto kong tanungin ang personality niya kung bakit kaya niya ang ganitong pressure, but I know she's Hayley, that answered it.

"Wag lang daw kausapin at hindi ka rin niya papansinin." She shakes her hands and do some few standing leg streches.

We're having a P.E. class with the other section. It happens to be L's class kaya ang saya ko! Though, it's quite tensing for the guys. L's class has almost all active athletes. Ang lahat ng competitive boys in my class ay may intense staring battle. Dare's group is mostly being triggered.

"Are they usually like this?" L noticed the tension between the two classes. She's new to this joined class. She didn't know this is a competition.

"Are the girls in your class sporty?"

My class kasi is known for having elegant girls, so how are we going to win against them?

"Yeah." Her single word is too scary.

L is also pretty athletic herself too, pero ang dumagdag pa siya sa section nila, mahihirapan lalo kami. What now? The boys are already excited and fired up. Baka kaming girls ang magpatalo. Naku, bakit ba kasi kami napapasali? I'm scared!

"Two classes, listen up!" Our teacher called us to gather. "We will be having a game."

"Whooo!" The students cheered up.

"Two sections ang magkalaban. We will be playing the classic tag game. However, may tig-isang taya sa magkabilang group. That person will chase the other class. Kung mahabol kayo, out na kayo sa game. Ang may pinaka-maraming matira, or ang last section standing, ang mananalo. Only one person, in each, can eliminate everyone in the other section. Now, choose who will be the 'it'!"

I hate this game! I'm sure I'll be early out.

"Ako ang last runner." Theo immediately presents himself.

Last runner ang sure na di magpapahabol hanggang ending ng game for sure win.

Obviously, we are all depending on their group, a.k.a bad boys' group or rather Dare's group. Sila ang most reliable since they want to win. May pride sila. They can win fast, pero right now, they have us—the non-concern people. Sagabal kami. Winning is all on them. Pero pagtalo it's because all students from other section are good, and we're not.

"Sam, can you be 'it'?" Alex passed the question. Lahat kami nakikinig at nakatingin habang sila nagde-decide.

"Hmmm," He puts his forefinger near his lips. "I can't. I have a good feeling who will be their runner. Man, if I'll go against their whole class, my stamina will be not enough."
