"One Point Higher" is a captivating narrative that explores the dynamic between two academic rivals. As they compete for the top spot in their class, their initial animosity transforms into a deep, unexpected romance. This story delves into themes o...
After a few months, I was so relieved na hindi na kami nag-usap ni Tyler. Although, I still felt sad and lonely. Maybe because I miss him.
Whatever! All is good now. As long as I don't get distracted by him.
"Good morning class. May activity tayo ngayon since busy ang mga teachers ngayon sa computation ng grades. I will be grouping you into pairs."
Ano kaya ang activity namin ngayon? Malapit na mag moving up. Kaya pachill-chill na lang kami ngayon.
"Gonzales and... Mendoza." sambit ni Ma'am Eloi. Wait, what? Isa lang naman ang Mendoza dito, at si Tyler pa.
"Ang activity niyo ay you will have one week to take care of an egg as your baby." muntik na akong mabilaukan. Wow, ha? Seems like practicing to be parents..
"Come up here and I'll take pictures na rin kasama ang partner niyo. Ilalagay kasi ito sa yearly portfolio ng mga teachers."
Isa-isa na kaming kumuha ng itlog na may mga nakadrawing din na faces. Pumila na rin kami ni Tyler para picturan ni Ma'am Eloi.
When it was our turn, biglang tumibok muli nang mabilis ang puso ko. Gaya noong close ko pa si Tyler. Wow, it's been a long time since I've felt this.
Huminga ako nang malalim, trying to calm myself. Inilagay kasi ni Tyler ang kanyang kamay sa balikat ko. Ngumiti na lamang kami habang pinipicturan kami ni Ma'am. Si Pearl naman ay nakita ko sa gilid na halatang pinipigilan ang sariling tumili.

I just have to get through this sh*t with Tyler, nothing more. No strings attached. Just taking care of an egg. You got this, Hannah.
"Also, this will greatly affect your final grade in ESP. It measures the goodness of your relationship with each other. The pairs are randomized, no switching partners."
Meron din nga pala kaming tasks na kailangang gawin. We also have to tak pictures for proof. Ito ang listahan:
• Eat lunch with baby egg. • Set baby egg to sleep. • Take baby egg to a fun place. (amusement park, mall, arcade, museum, etc.) • Lastly, take a (fake) family picture.
Grabe, anong tasks 'to? Oh well, can't do anything about it.
"Tyler, it seems we have to eat lunch together.." tawag ko kay Tyler. "Ah, we just have to take a quick picture right? Inaya na kasi ako ni Jenny. And, I don't want to distract you." my heart breaks a little after hearing his words. It was what I wanted, so why am I feeling this way?
"Ah, yeah.." tumango nalang ako.
After taking a picture, pumunta na siya sa table ni Jenny. Weird, mukhang napilit sya. Whatever, it's not my business.
