TCNFL;Chapter 15

Chapter fifteen - Her 'not so ordinary' day just happened.
----
Alex's Point of View

"J-jonel"bakit ba ako nauutal?

"No, I'm not asking for your permission because I'm going to court you whether you like or you will still like it." He said, he looks sincere but why do I feel sad?

Bakit ganito? I'm scared, I feared something about him. I have this thought that he might hurt me, I don't get it myself. Am I fearing something that doesn't exist?

I fell silent and looked at him. We look into each other's eyes.

Is this even right?

I came to school with big circles under my eyes. Pumasok ako na mukhang zombie, Jomel has this urge to talk to me but he's holding it in.

Nag-uusap sila ngayon about sa mga nangyari kahapon and how Jonel took me away from them yesterday but here I am, sitting quietly - completely dumbfounded.

"Ag, you've been really quiet since this morning. What happened to you?" Looks like hindi kinaya ni Jomel ang pagaalala so he approached me.

I smiled at him and shook my head. Should I tell him? He's my best friend so I'm not planning to keep things but I'm afraid. I don't know why but I'm scared.

"Ani, don't worry about me. Pahangin lang ako sa labas." I said still smiling at him. He nodded naman, "Ok, take care. Kung may kailangan ka or you need help or anything call me or at least anyone among us, arasseo?"

"Ara."

Lumabas na ako ng tambayan nila and started walking. This day is weird, I'm not liking it. I don't like gifts given by my schoolmates. I don't want to be pampered, why do they have to give gifts? Tao lang din naman ako, I know I'm not rich and I also need some things that they have given but I don't really get why they need to buy me things. What for? To show their adoration? To show their love? Or to tell me that I have somewhat change their perspective in life?

I'm just a Nerd, a cold nerd. There's nothing so special about me, I'm not pretty, not kind thus so sarcastic that I've hurt people by my words so why?

"Ms. Alexandra!" A group of freshmen approached me but I rolled my eyes. "Please not now, I need time to be alone."

They all nodded and I walked not minding them. I don't like this, yes I'll admit it - I also want friends. But they are giving me gifts not to be friends for me or because they wanted me to be their friends but because I'm with the 4's J.

Hindi naman nila ako bibigyan ng regalo kung hindi ako naging part ng 4's J, 'diba?

I stopped by a really tall tree far behind the school at malapit sa pangatlong gate ng school. May ganitong lugar pala sa school na 'to? I stood there looking around. I don't mind spending my time here alone.

Nagitla ako ng may babaeng sumisigaw hindi kalayuan sa kinatatayuan ko. "Wahhh! Put me down, damn you! You stink, bastard!"

Hinanap ko kung saan nanggagaling ang sigaw, and there is she being carried by a really ugly man and is trying to sneak her out the campus. Heto namang guard nag act as if wala siyang nakikita.

Really this school.

I shook my head at nagsimulang maglakad papunta sa kanila.

"What do we have here?" I asked giving the guard a glare and the ugly man a smirk.
