CHAPTER 08

TODAY is the big day. The event will officially start on 8AM, at hindi na siya makapaghintay pang masimulan ang event na ito.

They were all preparing for the rest of the activities, the facilitators as well as the coaches were also preparing for the opening.

"Lex, nandito na yung mga taga Celestine International..." balita sa kanya ni Jene and kanilang SSG secretary sa school.

She smiled and nodded. "Sige, then please entertain them at tsaka paki settle na rin sa mga uupuan nila sa dome" aniya.

Tumango naman ito. "Sige, nadoon pa kasi si Marcky sa gate eh, siya yung nakatuka doon para e welcome yung ibang guest kasama sina dean" tugon nito.

"Ganun bah? Sige pumunta ka na muna doon at susunod nalang ako sa inyu maya-maya" aniya at nang makaalis na si Jene ay nag ayos na muna siya sa kanyang suot na damit at pati na rin sa kanyang buhok at kaunting make-up na inilagay sa kanyang mukha.

Kagaya ng kanyang sinabi ay sumunod nga siya sa dome ng school to help on facilitating, sa back stage siya dumaan dahil sobrang sikip ng entrance dahil marami na ring pumapasok sa loob.

The dome were almost fully packed with a lot of people and it was so crowdy and noisy.

Nakita niya si Lee so she approaches him. "Lee, aling school pa ang wala rito?" she asked.

"Broughton High School nalang V-Pres..." saad nito.

"Ah sige, hihintayin muna na'tin sila may 10 minutes pa namang natitira" she said.

Naglakad siya papuntang podium para batiin ang kanilang mga bisita, pampa tanggam ng boredom ganun. "Good Morning sa ating lahat! Are you ready to celebrate our 40th year of annual partnership of our different respective schools as well as the 10th year of celebrating our sports fest together?!" the crowd becomes such a nuisance while raising their banners and balloons.

"Yeahhhh!"

"HOO-HOO-HAA!"

"FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!"

"Lezgoooo Celestine High!"

"Eduville is eager and willing to win!"

"Guys, please settle down, I know that all of you were excited and more excited as me for this event but let's wait for the Broughton High to arrive since we still have seven minutes before we officially start this event, so please settle down, thank youuu!" she smiled widely and left the podium.

Finally after  a few minutes she saw Marcky, together with their dean and the other dean of the other schools coming in.

"Marcky, nandito na ba silang lahat?" she asked

Tumango ito. "Yes! And it was hella hot outside jusko! After they settle, mag-start na kaagad  tayo, for now I need to freshen up, jusko ang init!" tumalikod ito sa kanya at nagtungo sa backstage.

"Ang arte talaga" turan niya.

Matapos si Marcky sa ginawa nito ay pumunta na ito sa harapan. Kaya bumaba na siya ng stage at hinanap ang mga kaibigan niya sa mga bleachers.

And saw Deanna sitting right there together with Bianca. "Hey" aniya feeling so tired.

"Halika, umupo ka muna dito, malapit nang mag start and opening..." turan ni Bianca.

Umupo nga siya roon. "Goodluck sa inyu mamaya" aniya sa mga kaibigan.

"Ikaw rin" Deanna said and tapped her shoulder.

"Once again! Good Morning Celestians, Eduvillians, Broughtonians, and Zacharians!" magiliw na bati ni Marcky sa lahat ng naroroon and everyone shouted as if there's no tomorrow. "We have gathered here today to celebrate our 40th annual partnership as well as the collaboration of our 10th year sports fest to be held in Eduville High School this year." Marcky said.
