Tactical Intelligence Mission

Mission#25 highschool's competitor

Phoenix

FLASHBACK........

'The winner of this competition is................please give a round of applause for phoenix fortejo!!!" I made my way to stage when the emcee called my name. Inside the social hall was filled of claps and 'whoos' . Muntik na akong madapa but still i manage to walk like nothing happened. Hindi ko na lang pinansin ang nagtangka though i already know who she is. I'm actually a geek, nerd whatever you called it. I'm one of them. Since elementary i'm the best of all, always the top 1. Best in every subject since today. But there this one girl who did not give up. She's always next to me. Literally. She's always second and i feel that she hates it. That's why even though she's a girl, she always bully me. Make fun of me. Make pranks and i don't give a shit and that makes her more angry cause i care less. I know the feeling of being in second. Not in academic, not in extra curricular but in my family. I will always be the second. Anyhow. I already get my trophy, the only relative attended is my yaya, i treat like she belong to our family. She claps and stand like she is my mother, wish she was. I can see it in her eyes that she is proud of me. I smiled and headed back to my seat. Which apparently who'se next in me is the one who make fun of me and envy... i guess?

"You're just lucky today but not anymore" she always said that whenever i get my trophies. Please, may i introduce you Tanya levine alfred. It's quite surprising that my competitor is a girl.

Don't underestimate a girl ika nga.

I'm quite thankful because she's there. But if she does'nt exist i may not be in my position right now. I may not be as competitive as i am right now. But she's here doing her best to be the first which i disagree.

I was heading to my locker when levi block my way.

"Ooooh, here's the yaya's boy" hindi ko siya pinansin at nagsimula ulit maglakad ng binuksan niya bigla ang zipper ng bag ko kaya nahulog ang mga notes and books ko. Lahat ng nakakita ay tumawa lang and no one dared to help me. Ayos lang naman sa akin ang ganito, atleast hindi physical contact. Pinulot ko ito at dumiretso na sa locker habang patuloy parin silang tumatawa.

Pagkabukas ko ng locker ko. Nakita ko na lang na punit punit ang mga libro na nasa loob even my notebooks are ruined. I breathe calmly and leave my locker opened and headed my way to the principal office.

Hindi ako magsusumbong kung yun ang iniisip niyo. I'll just get my duplicates books and notebooks. Sanay na ako. Twice a week nangyayari ito so i really don't mind. My parents have no idea what i've been through this past years and they don't care at all even if i tell them so why bother telling them?

'Waste of time'

In one week, iba iba ang ginagawa niya actually nakabisado ko na ang routine niya e.

Monday-papahiyain ako sa loob ng klase
Tuesday-sisirain ang mga gamit ko
Wed-tatapunan ako ng juice at may mga sabaw na ulam.
Thurs-walang kasawaang pranks na malulupet.
Friday-sisirain ulit ang mga gamit ko.

Oh diba? Kabisado ko na?

Bakit hindi ako nagagalit? Simple.....

Kasi napapansin niya ako. Oo, i am secretly in love with her. Totoy pa? Ayos lang. I really don't know why i'm inlove with her, maybe because she's so competitive, maybe because she's a fighter or maybe because she's so wonderful?

Yeah maybe it is. I don't have the urge to tell her that i have feelings for her but one day........
