Pambihirang Harana- A JhoCey AU!

first meet (rambotan tales)

I was still catching my breath ng dumating ako sa school, I'm glad nakaabot pa ako sa entrance ceremony.

People are staring at me, well it's not surprising, knowing I'm currently hugging a basket and protecting it with my dear life, when suddenly someone grabbed me from behind.

"hoy"

"hoy ka din"

"ikaw nga!"

"anong ako?"

"you were the reason why I was late during the entrance ceremony!"

"excuse me, do I know you?" Tanong ko

"no, but I do know you. What the heck is wrong with you at nagkalat ka ng rambutan sa daan?!"

(2 hours ago)

"Joan, you're not gonna bring that are you?" Mom asked eyeing the basket na hawak hawak ko habang papalakad kami papuntang kotse.

It's the first day of school, sa isang kisap mata ay naka-graduate na rin ako sa pagiging senior citizen, charot, pagiging senior highschool.

"It's for Gia Mom, pasalubong ko for her" I smiled widely, as if it's normal to bring something like this sa unang araw ng klase.

Gia is my best friend, we've known each other for years kasi we're living on the same neighborhood.

I brought her pasalubong slash peace offering, nakalimotan ko kasing bilhin yung pinabibili niya when my family went to Japan last month, kaya binilhan ko nalang siya ng rambotan. Because, who say's no to rambotan?

My mom wasn't even surprise, maybe the last time she felt very surprised was when she gave birth to a daughter like me, until that day, nothing more is extreme.

She had an option, either a boring normal daughter or me, of course she prefers the former pero nanaig parin ako, ako na'to no.

Anyways, hindi naman masyadong malayo ang school from where we're living pero it's the first day of school kaya traffic, I decided to drop off nalang sa may pedestrian kasi Mom is running late na for work.

Pero anak ng tokwa naman talaga oh...

may bumangga sa akin kaya naman nahulog yung rambotan ko while crossing. "Talaga kuya, talaga!?@)##($+#+" kainis!

"shit shit shit shit" 'yan nalang talaga lumabas sa bibig ko while trying to pick every piece sa gitna ng daan, at alam ko ang nasa isip niyo! Oo I will pick EVERY SINGLE PIECE. Don't judge me! Isang basket yung dala kong rambotan tapos magiging lima nalang ang laman?! EDI SANA BASKET NALANG PINANGSALUBONG KO SA BEST FRIEND KO DIBA?!

"sorry po" I mouthed over and over in front of the cars that I caused inconvenience

tumakbo akong nakayuko securing my rambotan at ang natitira ko pang dignidad.

Gia, the things you make me do.

end.

Nanlaki ang mga mata ko when I heard her "W-What are you talking about, boang ka ba?" I let out a fake laugh "hindi ko alam 'yang pinagsasabi mo no" act fool. act fool. act fool.

"stop playing fool rambotan girl. I will never forget the person who ruined my first day" after saying that she walked away purposely bumping into me.

That's when I first met, Liana Sabrina Audrey Sevilla a.k.a Sab, a.k.a Sabog

And how she made my school life extraordinary.
