I'm so disappointed, Ms. Aquino. I didn't know you can do such thing as this. Alam mo naman siguro ang kapalit ng ginawa mo, hindi ba?" Mr. Escamillia, their class adviser said.
"But sir, I didn't do it. Hindi ko po kayang gawin yun". Hyacinth said, She was crying while explaining her side. Kanina pa sya iyak nang iyak dahil ayaw syang paniwalaan ni Mr. Escamillia.
"So, you're telling me that all the evidence that points to you isn't credible?" Mr. Escamillia said.
"Yes, sir. Kilala niyo po ako. I wouldn't have done such things. Especially cheating sir!" Hyacinth.
"Yun na nga, Ms. Aquino Kilala kita. Kaya hindi ako makapaniniwala na ginawa mo 'to." Mr. Escamillia.
"I told you I didn't do it! Akala niyo ba Hindi ko alam ang ginagawa mo sir!" She said, she hit the table and raised her voice. Her action was surprising to her adviser.
"Ms. Aquino! Anong pinagsasabi mo!?" Mr. Escamillia, maawtoridad na sambit nito.
"Ilang beses ko bang sasabihin sa inyo na hindi ko ginawa yun? They're framing me!" hyacinth said, her voice is trembling.
"That's enough, Ms. Aquino!" Mr. Escamillia
"Please, sir! Hindi ko kayang mawala sa running for honors, Kailangan ko 'yon for my scholarship sa college, please! Papatayin ako ng mama ko if nalaman niyang Hindi ako Kasali sir!" She said, crying.
"Then you should've think of your actions. I've heard enough! Hindi ka makakasama sa exam next week! Only the honorable students will be able to get the scholars ship sa college, tanggal kana sa running for honors Ms. Aquino! Get out of my office now!" Mr. Escamillia screamed
" B-but..s-sir! Hindi pwede i-y-an!" mas lalo syang umiyak.
" Wala akong magagawa Ms. Aquino, your issue already spread like a wild fire. "

"Oh My God! Have you heard, yung issue ng kaklase natin?"
"What?!"
"Hyacinth, yung pinakamatalino sa batch natin. She cheated sa exam!"
"Really? Akala ko pa naman matalino talaga iyon."
"Kaya nga, eh. Siguro matagal nya ng ginagawa yan kaya sya lagi ang top 1."
"I think so, Hindi na nga maganda. Cheater pa!"
"Agree girl! Kaya iniwan ng tatay, cheater din kasi!"
She hears murmurings about what happened while walking in the hallway. The old building is for High Ranking Students.
She can't stand the gossips about her. That's already too much for her. She was trying to explain her side, but no one believes her. There is still an ongoing investigation into this matter, but the issue has already spread to the campus.
She ran to the girls comfort room because she can't stand it anymore. Her tears are slowly falling again.
Madami syang pasa, na natamo sa kanyang ina. Kahit nga 99 ang grade sya. Hindi pa din ito sapat.
Ang kanyang ama naman, ay iniwan sya dahil may ibang babae.
"Girls, Look who's here !" Sofia said, arrogantly.
"Omy, the cheater!" Katryn added.
She was about to get out of there when kate stood by the door to stop her.
"At saan ka pupunta, Hindi pa nga Tayo nagsisimula. Aalis kana agad hyacinth?" Katryn
