Chapter 1

Arrogant


"Come on! The results are just posted a minute ago." Clara impatiently said to me when I stopped and catch my breath for a while. I don't know what's on being excited on her as we are nearly on the announcement board. I shook my head on her actions.


As we already in the main building where the announcement board placed we saw the students are making a commotion in front of the announcement board.


Student Council Election is really one of the most awaited events in Aldama High huh.


After a second, I am now in front of the results of the said election. I don't know how I smoothly got in front, maybe Clara's popularity perhaps? I look at my best friend who is now looking for the results quietly not bothering what a move she do to make us to slip away on the other students.


I focus on the paper what the students are craving to see. A paper that will announce who will rule the Aldama High next school year. I start to take a look from bottom up to the top. As I am just near to the results in Vice president and President, Clara who is at my side shake my shoulders by both of my hands. I gave her a 'what the hell' look when she already contented shaking me and I go back and take a look on the results again.


It makes sense why Clara shakes me to death and what she saying as she shaking me. I don't know what will be my initial reaction; will be jump for joy, giggling with Clara or shout 'YES'. I also put on the option to cry –but my only reaction is ... normal.


"Waaaaah! I knew it! Congrats Xandie!!" Clara hugs me without a warning. She gave me a suffocating hug could a best friend can give.


And as a minutes passed by, I noticed that not only Clara was the one who's hugging me. I tried to get out on the hugged but I think they really want to suffocate me. When I go out in the embrace, I saw Rachel and Janna are smiling in me.


"I told you! You will win" Rachel remarked. She took a glance on the results before she looked at me with a smile on her face. I just smiled to them and asked them that we should go back to our classes.


"Hey! We should have a victory party!" Clara declares


*****

Tick tock tick tock


Few minutes to go and our class will be dismissed. I kept on looking at my watch as I'm impatiently waiting for the dismissal. I don't know what I'm such in hurry to dismiss our class –or because I have something to do after class.


"Class Dismissed" the two words that make us to wake up from being groggy and sleepy on our last subject. I quickly fix my things and put my bag on my shoulder. I look at my watch before I dragged Janna and Clara as we go on the meeting of the incoming Sc Officers.


We almost like flying when we are going to the main building where the Sc office is. I'm expecting that they are already starting and The Ms. President will scold us. I also expect that they're quiet but it is totally opposite.
