"You'll come with me right?" Tanong ko kay Daisy. It's currently 7 in the morning and we're still inside my apartment. I'm done preparing but it's still too early to head to school since my class will start at 9 am.
"Oo naman. Pero babalik ako sa system whenever I feel sleepy or bored. You can always call me though, I'll come out." Sabi niya habang lumalamon ng pagkain.
Since my targets are mostly college students, I enrolled at college department. I took Masters of Law since I find it challenging, even in my last life. I was a doctor first before I abandoned my profession and became a gamer. Spent almost half a decade of my life for that profession, surely taking law course can't be that bad.
I looked at my skirt. In fairness, the university's uniform isn't lame fashion. Maganda ang black and gold combination.
PERO PUCHA TANGINA.
Ang hirap gumalaw. Sobrang fitted ng skirt. Di ako sanay. I tried getting the men's uniform pero bawal talaga.
Gumawa nalang ako ng errands para pampalipas oras. Mabilis tumakbo ang oras at hindi ko namalayang malapit na pala mag alas-nwebe. Agad kong kinuha ang mga gamit ko at umalis.
"Daisy, let's go."
Wen Valender is really big. Really big.
"Daisy, we're lost. Again." Sabi ko tapos umirap.
Hindi kasi same yung daan patungo sa examination room. Kaya nawala kami ni Daisy. This place looks like a garden or something.
Maraming flowers at may malaking fountain sa gitna. May nakita akong naka-upo sa bench kaya lumapit ako para mag-tanong ng direksyon.
It's a girl reading something. "Uhm, hello?" I said, hoping to start a conversation.
"HOLY CRAP-" Gulat na gulat na sabi ni ate. Tumingin siya sa akin na kinagulat ko naman.
What the hell?
WHAT THE HELL?
"HOLY SHIT-" I exclaimed.
WHY DOES SHE LOOKS LIKE HER?
"C-Chanel?" I asked.
The girl reading looks exactly like Chanel but her vibe is completely different from the Chanel I knew.
"Oh, so you know Chanel? I get that a lot. I'm not her hehe." This girl smiled brightly.
I'm confused. Ano daw? Hindi siya si Chanel? Ha? Come to think of it, she doesn't really feel like Chanel. Is she her twin? But I lived in the Lin mansion and I didn't saw Chanel having a twin!
"I'm Lucci. Do you need something?" Sabi niya.
Damn, this is weird. It's weird to see a person who looks exactly like Chanel being polite. That's why I looked away before speaking.
"Actually, hindi ko alam kung nasaan ako. Can you give me directions where is the law department?" I said, still not looking at her way.
"Hoy. Okay ka lang? Your face is red-"
"Okay lang ako." Sabi ko. DAMN IT. Me feeling a lot of emotions in one go must've caused my face to go red. I hate when this happens. They always mistake me for blushing or having a fever.
"Well, you're lucky. I'm guessing you're a law student. I am too. Sabay nalang tayo." Sabi niya tapos tumayo.
"I didn't catch your name. Who are you by the way?" Tanong ni Lucci sa gilid ko.
"Ah, it's Amy. Thanks."
Naglakad kami then suddenly I remembered something. Something that happened a while ago in the Lin mansion.
"Uhm. Chanel-ehem I mean Lucci. Do you like cats?" That's a suspicious question but anyways.
"Ha? Ah oo. I love cats." Sabi niya habang nakangiti.
Sweatdrops formed in my forehead.
"B-by any means, are you related to Chanel Lin?"
Tumigil siya sa paglalakad at tumingin sa akin. I looked away because I don't want to meet her eyes.
"Hindi."
Ah of course they're twins. How dumb are you, Zander Lin? Magkamukha nga sila-
"Huh?" Agad akong tumingin sa kanya.
"Let's go, Amy. We're late." Sabi niya, obviously trying to change the topic.
I think Lucci is uncomfortable talking about it so I didn't bother her. Tahimik lang akong sumunod sa kanya.
-
"Where's your classroom, Amy? I'm at 2-1A." Lucci asked in her usual cheery voice.
I found out that she is also a freshman at Law department. Meaning, she isn't Chanel's twin since Chanel is older than me.
Wait, Chanel is my classmate in middle school. It means she's still a freshman!
Tumingin ulit ako kay Lucci. Lucci is simple but pretty. Her smiles are genuine. Chanel is pretty too, but her smiles feels like she's planning to have you crucified if you disobey her.
Who are you Lucci?
"Parehas tayo ng class." Sabi ko, nakangiti din. Natuwa si Lucci at bigla nalang piniga ang braso ko habang tumatawa.
At least I made a friend. Quite an odd friend though. Irony that the one I desire to take down has the same face as my first friend.
