God. That's a lot of class funds, Matt.

6:30am ; Class 1A - Galileo

Rei counted the class funds when he entered the classroom. He is sick of holding them when the treasurer should be the one holding them.

He put it back in the bag and pulled out his phone to play for a while. Suddenly, his phone rings.

"Hello?" Rei answered.
"Yo, Rei! Dala mo 'yung class funds?" Matt responded.
"Oo, dala ko. Puwede bang, ikaw naman ang maghawak ng class funds?"
"Luh, ang dami kong dala."
"It doesn't matter, Matt. I'm sick of holding them."
"Sige, I'll try to bring it with me."
"And PLEASE, I swear to God. If you spend those, sasapakin kita."
"Okay, okay. Chill lang, Rei."

Matt hung up and promised himself that he should not spend those. Besides, treasurers should be doing their job in holding the funds and not spending them.

He was still combing his hair until he noticed it was 6:30 am.

"Gagi! I'm not done combing my hair!" Matt was in disbelief. "HINDI PA AKO NAKA-UNIFORM!"

Matt was hurriedly putting on his clothes and bought some food outside to serve as his breakfast.

6:45 am ; EDSA MRT-1 Station, Taft Avenue

"NO! I don't wanna be late!" Matt was running and panics that he would be late.

He took the tricycle and paid for it. "Keep the change, kuya. Thank you!"

Matt ran upstairs and made it early before 7:00 am.

"Phew. It's only 6:55 am. I thought I was late!" Matt thought to himself.

He lay down on his chair to take a quick rest. He got tired running throughout the whole time. After taking a break, he came to Rei to take the class funds.

9:00 am, Break

"Hey Rei," Matt greeted him. "Ano kailangan mo, Matt Romwin?" Rei questioned.

"Bigay mo na 'yung funds. I'm gonna take care of it." Matt responded. "Sure ka?"

"Oo, I'm not gonna spend it."
"I'm going to trust you with these funds. Make sure na hindi mo 'to ibibili lahat."
"Too easy."
"Too easy. . . too easy mukha mo, Matt."

Matt took the funds and went back to his chair. "How much na ba 'tong class funds?" He asked.

He counted it all and said, "That's a lot of money... 17,280 pesos? For the CLASS FUNDS?"

Matt told the vice president about it.

"Luh, sabi ni ma'am it should only be 10,000 pesos MAX." "Alam ko, ba't naging 17,000 na 'to?" Matt went to Rei to spend 7,000 pesos of it.

"Sinabi ba ni ma'am that the maximum is 10,000 pesos?" Rei questioned.

"Oo, she told us through DMs," Matt responded.

"Fine, let's spend 7,000 pesos of it."
