Its been a few minutes since we departed from our house.
I watched as we arrieved at a large maroon gate, the guard that was on duty opened the gate and greated us. Loraine also greated the guard while I just noded at him. As we entered the premises you'll noticed how big the facility was, there were six large building's in total as I've read from the school magazine. there are a separate building's for elementary,junior and senior highschool,and another building for collage,library and gymnasium,they also have an outdoor tennis and football court, a massive field and an outdoor swimming pool.
as soon as we stepped out of the the car I could hear people chanting my devil of a sister's name.
"Loraine good morning do you want me to bring you. your favorite morning coffee!"said the brown headed guy. which I recognized as Jacob San rafael second son of the san rafael pharmasoticals.
I already memorized all the people who might be a good connection for our company. After all I came back to this place not to reunite with my family but because of my training na si papa mismo ang nag-utos.
"it's ok I had breakfast at home" she said with a Sweet smile.
as my so called sister was busy with her fan's I left them. She must be popular enough to have her own fanclub. Which by the way doesn't have anything to do with me.
I was exploring the campus as I try to find the faculty room when suddenly "Woah!!-" a voice uttered as I fell on the ground. as I looked up to see who just bump into me. I saw a tall guy with dark blue hair and black eyes.
he looks korean.
"the heck they also let foreigners study here?" I said to myself as I stared at the guy.
"dont you have eyes?!"the guy yelled looking pissed
"well!! isn't that rich coming from the person who just bumped into me?!!!" I hissed back.
"ohh and correction I have eyes" I added as I stand.
The guy was about to say something again when-
"Hey Russel what are you doing here?come on Ethan is waiting for us" another the tall guy appeared.
"tssssk" the guy whose name is Russel I presume? clicked his tongue as they left.
The nerve of him! he was the one who wasn't looking at where his going and he didn't even Apologize?!! What's with this school? First they worship a devil then they have uneducated people?
This day can't get any worse can it?
Moments later I hear someone calling my name "ATHEANA!!!"
As I turned around a girl carrying a Gucci bag caught my attention. That ponytail and black colored eyes seems familiar to me.
As I squinted my eyes. I recognized her, Daniela Mendoza. we used to be classmates back in london.
Her family came from the line of doctors.
She had a clingy side to her that kind of made me uncomfortable. But it was bearable.
"Hi Dani long time no see" I greated as she got close to me.
"Long time no seee. You know I was really bummed when we moved here cuzzz I couldn't see my bfff anymore"
with her sweet vocals she ranted.
I listened to her talk for 15 minutes. When she diverted the topic.
"Ohh btw have you already been at the faculty room?"she asked between her stories.
"not yet" I answered shortly
"Ohh my G what am I doing....sorry Athea I've kept blabbing when you should be at the faculty by now"she sulked
"Its ok matagal narin tayong hindi nag kikita ehhh and I was kind lost just before you approached me so..." I explained. Which she made an ohhh shape with her lips.
"By the way anong Strand ka?" She asked.
"Uhmm STEM" I replied casually which I think pleased her?
"You should have told me kanina pa. Tarraaa na" she happily exclaimed as she pulls me towards the hallways.
after 3 munites of walking we stoped at a front of a door that has a label FACULTY written on the door.
Dani knocked two times before entering the room.
Dani lead me to a middle age woman that later I found out that she would be my homeroom teacher. pag katapos namin mangaling sa faculty ay dumiretso na kami sa classroom namin. Turns out we're classmates again.
As we walked throughthe massive hallways you could notice students wearing designer clothes and accessories. I wasn't a fan of showing of what I had so seeing them had looking at a different perspective. Dani halted and entered a room that has a STEM 11-A written on the front door I followed her inside. Malaking silid na halatang pangmayaman talaga ang bumungad sa akin other than that, the ceiling was also eye catching with huge chandeliers hanging above our heads and a room that's fully air-conditioned it made me glad I wore a jacket.
"so this will be our classroom starting today" Dani explaned.
The room was still half full so I guess hindi pa ito ang lahat ng classmates namin. Namalayan ko nalang na Dani was guiding me towards an empty seat at the back row close to the window. A typical seat for those main characters in books I've read.
"You can seat here"she said.
After putting my bag down. I noticed that Daniela was staring at me.
Maybe she's waiting for me to say the magic word?
"Thanks Dani" I said. Hoping after my appreciation she would take her seat but to my surprise she just kept on staring at me with those black doll eyes of hers.
"uhmm do you still need something?"
Di mapigilang tanong ko. I couldn't take her stares anymore. It's making me uncomfortable.
"Well.... it's just been so long and I have tons of stories to tell you di pa nga ako makapaniwala na nandito ka na ehh. Imagine how I reacted when I suddenly got a call from you" Sabi nya habang umupu sa desk ko.
"Back at London akala ko you said that you'll never go to the Philippines. why the change of mind ba?" Kuryusong tanong niya.
that made me think.
Bakit nga ba ako pumunta dito dahil ba sa utos ni papa? Pero pwede ko naman syang tanggihan kong gusto ko. Dahil ba gusto ko makita sila mama? o baka dahil sa-
"Ahhhhhhh They're here!!!!"
My trail of thoughts was interrupted nang may pumasok na tatlong lalaki sa salid almost all the girls squealed. may hinimatay pa nga ehh sa di malamang dahilan.
"And the crowd goes wild" I heard Daniela's voice that made me look at her in a puzzle way.
"Sino sila?" I asked.
