Beauty in Disaster

Chapter 2

‘Di ako nakatulog ng maayos pero kailangan kong bumangon para sa klase. The sun was shining so bright, Mira is already ready and finalizing her things. I quickly went to the bathroom to freshen up and after that we went to the cafeteria to grab some breakfast.

Saglit lamang kame at nag hiwalay na. Mira and I are not classmates, my 1st subject is up on the fourth floor of the main building and there is no elevator for pete's sake.

With this gothic style of architecture surely this building receives sarcasms statements and profanities from students who don't want their asses to climb up using stairs early morning. This school is not a regular high school institution, ang classes dito ay parang sa college na however ang mga kaklase ko ay same level ko lang.

At minamalas nga naman ako at ang unang subject ko for the day ay Math. The most hated subject of students. As I reach my designated room for my 1st subject, naroon na ang aming guro.

“Transferee?” tumango lamang ako. I entered the room and there is a seat near the window that is not yet occupied. Target locked.

She instructed me to introduce myself to the class. “Alessia…Alessia Sullivan” after that I proceed to the seat that I am eyeing. The instructor starts the class. After what happened yesterday, I can’t help but wary about the surroundings.

In the middle of the discussion, I felt once again that someone is watching me and it seems I will be frequently experience and feeling this.

My eyes linger outside the window and locked it in the woods, there is something that is pulling my curiosity towards the woods and ever since I was a child, I always been so curious in a lot of things that got my attention. Shadow. There’s the shadow once again.

Nalipat ang tingin ko sa lalaking nag lalakad papunta sa garden. How can he be so charming just by simply walking? He looked up and locked his eyes on mine pero hindi din nag tagal yon nang tawagin siya ng kanyang kaibigan. They are talking seriously.

And the bell rang. I just waited for the room to cleared before going out, I still have the time before my second subject will start. I silently walk pero bago pa ako makarating sa susunod na subject there is someone who pulled me and cover my mouth and nose. Bago ko pa man makita kung sino iyon ay nawalan na ako ng malay.

I just think that they are so early to do something like this nevertheless what should I expect with this place? This place made me think what this place holds to make it peculiar.

I slowly open my eyes, still all I can see is darkness. I couldn’t move hands. They tied my hands
I’m used to this kind of set -up from my previous call, that’s how I learned how to fight for myself but is this school allowed students to use some kind of drug? I observed the place where I was tied up, even though my eyes are still blindfolded. I want to know who these idiots are.

I don’t know what time it is and how long I was passed out. The last thing I remember is that someone is covering my mouth and nose to prevent me from shouting.

I stiffened as I felt a breath behind pero agad din akong nakabawi. 
“Sino ka?” malamig kong sabi.

The person removed my blindfold; I slowly opened my eyes. I’m thinking what the reasons are why am I in this situation and yeah I remember that I stabbed one of the guys that rules this school. I see the person that was arguing with the boy named Alas however he’s not alone, he’s with the guy that I stabbed with a fork and the other guys that I saw in the cafeteria.

“Do you know why you are currently in this situation?” Tanong ng mukhang leader nila.
“I don’t know. Mind explaining to me?” they hint a boredom with my voice. I yawn and it irritates them.
