Chapter Twelve: Detention Room
"On the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, William Shakespeare, an English playwright..."
Nandito pa lang ako sa corridor rinig ko na ang boses ng matandang huklubang prof namin.
I opened the door and continuously walked towards the chair where we usually sit. Not minding the prof talking in front.
"Mr. Oliveros, how dare you enter my class 55 minutes late?!" She said at the top of her voice. Tss, as expected she'll be mad again. Palibhasa matandang dalaga na kaya laging galit.
"My mom told me that it's better to be late than never." I boredly answered.
"Fvck." I murmured as soon as I've sat beside Jeff who's beside a chic. Tss. Probably one of her girls again.
"Tinanghali ng gising man? Nagbar ka kagabi no?"
"Heck no!" Sht napalakas pa yata pagkakasabi ko nun.
"How disrespectful of you Mr. Oliveros?! I'm asking if you're listening to me, and you have the guts to answer me 'heck no!'?"
What the fvck is she saying?!
"Excuse me ma'am, but I'm not talking to you." I told her in my most polite tone. Tss.
Kung nasa cartoons lang to umuusok na siguro tenga ng prof na 'to, at nagkakasungay na sa sobrang galit.
"OLIVEROS!!!! DETENTION! NOW!!"
Fvck? Is this serious?!
"I believe that not because I've answered you, it doesn't mean I'll be on detention."
"Have you forgotten that you've entered my class 55 minutes late?! Papalagpasin ko sana yun kung hindi mo 'ko binastos!"
"Ugh! Fine!" I stood and stormed out of the room, slamming the door as I closed.
I went straight to the detention room. Tss. This university is so highschoolish. Detention and a professor na 'kala mo adviser ng isang highschool class sa pagkastrikto sa attendance?! Is this serious?
Fvck, so annoying!
On the second thought, siguro mas maganda na rin 'tong na-detention ako. Besides, wala naman talaga akong balak makinig sa mga discussions. Still not in the mood to do so.
Nang nasa tapat na ako ng detention room, I stopped when I heard a strum of a guitar.
Idinikit ko ang aking tenga sa pinto upang marinig ang boses ng kumakanta.
"She's with him, I'm in the backseat
Know it's not right, but it hurts when they're laughing

Past Tense (On-Going)
Teen Fiction"I loved her. Past tense, Elle. Akala ko ba magaling ka sa English? Ni simpleng past tense lang hindi mo pa maintindihan. She was my past tense, and you are now my present tense. And I'd be more than willing for you to be my future tense. I love you...
