The Hymn of Red Asters ( Season 2 ) - Freenbecky

Chapter 6

Patricia

"Ako nalang lalagay ng gamit mo sa dorm, mamaya pa naman klase ko."

Marissa said while fixing our things inside the Van

I took a deep breath because I feel so nervous

Mom said hindi sya ang makakasama ko sa room

if it's a stranger, mas nakakatakot dahil hindi naman ako sanay sa ibang tao

Mas okay pa ngang si Marissa ang makasama ko kaysa naman ibang student

sabagay hindi naman ako tatambay dun, matutulog lang mamaya

Una akong pumasok sa school dahil ang 1st sub namin ngayon is 8:00 am and 7:40 na, mamayang 9:30 pa kasi si marissa kaya sya muna mag aayos ng gamit namin sa dorm

while walking on the field I sense something following me

I roamed my eyes everywhere at wala naman akong nakikita

guni-guni ko lang ata.

Pag dating ko palang sa klase ay nag aattendance na agad ang Instructor

College is a little bit hard for me now because I skipped senior high, lalo na't nag uumpisa na yung mga research papers bawat subject

Hindi ko alam kung ganun din bah si Saro, ang pagkakaalam ko kasi, nakapag online class sya last year 

Thanks to lolo for that info, sa lahat ng tao sa bahay sya lang yung medyo nakakaintindi sakin

I look at yhoko's desk at wala sya dun, absent ata sya ngayon, lagi namang maaga yun ah

"For the upcoming intramurals, who's willing to join the swimming competition to represent our department against other departments?"

Napatalon ako ng biglang magsalita ang instructor nang mapadaan ako sa harap ng desk nya

damn

"Ahmm meron na pong participant po for swimming competition."

Sabi ng classmate ko na si Ave na nakaupo sa harapan

"Good, sino ba ang representative nyo?"

"Si Patricia po."

My mouth fell opened when I heard my name

Napatingin ako kay kia sa kabilang row at parang natatawa ito sa reaction ko

"A-ah Ma'am-"

"Ohh Good job for you Ms. Armstrong for the Initiative to fight for our department." nakangiting sabi nito

"But ma'am-"

I don't know how to swim

Napansin agad ni ma'am ang reaction ko at napasmile lang ito

"Don't worry iha hindi ka naman mapepressure dahil need lang ng participants, you don't need to win if hindi mo kaya."

"Yes Patricia, para naman may pang bawi ka sa mga Activity natin na hindi mo napasukan." Ave said that irritates me "Tuturuan ka naman ng mga Techniques ni Sir Rob kung pano lumangoy ng mabilis eh."

*Thud

"What?" Kia exclaimed and slummed her hand on her desk

"Kia?" tanong ni ma'am

"Why kia? mabait naman si sir at magaling pang mag turo siguradong mananalo tayo." Ave said and laughing at her while raising her eyebrows

"Can you please shut your mouth? that's not my concern-"
