Chapter 17

Inside their school's multipurpose hall, right by the backstage, Jordyn and Sydney are on it again with their petty fights.

"Kundi ka siguro pala-reklamo baka kasabay natin umuwi 'yung iba kanina. Tignan mo tuloy, anong oras na naglilinis pa rin tayo dito." Jordyn complained as she sweeps off the floor.

"Me? Eh feeling boss ka na naman nga kanina! If you just let me do my job then there wouldn't be any problem." Sydney snapped back, sitting down while crossing her arms.

Jordyn stopped sweeping when she noticed Sydney just sitting still. "Hoy! Tumayo ka diyan! 'Di pa tayo tapos sa gawain oh!" She reprimanded.

"I'm done na kaya kanina pa? Ikaw na lang hindi." Sagot naman ni Sydney.

"Wow! Anong ginawa mo? Ginalaw galaw nang slight 'yung upuan para kunwari may ginawa ka?"

"My bashers' opinions are invalid, sorry."

"Tangina." Jordyn cursed inside her head. "Dapat kasama ko si Iya ngayon eh. Hindi 'tong babaeng dinaig pa ang spoiled brat."

Sa sobrang init kasi ng dugo nila sa isa't isa, kahit sa harap ng mga seniors and other committees for the Thanksgiving Day event ay nagtatalo pa rin sila for simple yet ridiculous reasons.

Even Jordyn, who's just trying to keep everything in order, ay nadamay because of Sydney's attitude na dinaig pa ang batang pinatigil sa paglalaro mh iPad.

In the end, they were forced to work alone together inside the school's multipurpose hall, labag man sa loob nilang dalawa.

Especially Jordyn, who's not supposed to be involved in this mess if it wasn't for Sydney.

She even had to apologize to Allianah earlier if she wouldn't be able to make it to their study session.

Earlier

"Iya, sorry pala kasi baka hindi na kita masamahan sa pag-aaral. Baka anong oras na rin ako makauwi later." Jordyn said with guilt. This was the first time she had to cancel their study session.

What made her more frustrated is the fact that she didn't asked for it in the first place yet she was forced to complete her work with Sydney.

"It's okay, Jordy! Hintayin na lang kita sa may library. Maglilinis lang naman kayo, right?" Malambing na sagot ni Allianah.

"Yes... pero sure ka?"

"Of course! You always wait for me, Jordy. It's no big deal if ako naman gagawa for you."

This made Jordyn's heart skip a beat. As much as she doesn't want for Allianah to wait, she just gave in at her word. Alam naman niya na she couldn't do anything to change the older's mind.

"Okay, sige. Basta 'wag mo na hintayin maggabi pa ha, Iya? If wala pa ko by 5pm, you can go home na. Delikado mag-commute sa gabi. We can study together next time naman."

"Alright, got it! Just text me if tapos ka na, okay?"

"Sure thing, Iya! I'll see you later!"

Pero anong oras na hindi pa rin tapos sila Jordyn. Bukod kasi sa paglilinis, kinailangan pa nilang mag-organize ng gamit at i-set up 'yon kanina kaya mas lalo silang natagalan.
