" Can you believe that Miro, you've won the election." Jens exclaimed as she put her arms around Miro's shoulder. The announcement of the winner was released an hour ago.

"Be ready titan, Miro will be leading for whole school year." Jens makes a small dance and pulls Miro to dance with her.

"You're so loud Jens, stop it already." Miro looks around her and bows her head because of embarrassment. Jens didn't listen to her as she jumped in joy.

Miro walked away quickly as she made her way to her favourite spot. This past few weeks have been overwhelming for her. From the issue between her and Cleir, the campaign, and the election. She is not used to this kind of life. Miro likes to be invisible and to do everything on her own. She doesn't know what to do next honestly. She has no clue at all, this is all new to her. 

"Why are you always sitting there?" a familiar voice pulls her from her thought, she turns to the direction of the owner of the voice just to see the Ms. Aliah standing not so far from her. Her arms cross above her chest. 

"I want to ease my mind." She replied as she looked ahead. Aliah turns her gaze to Miro with a concern expression that immediately went away before Miro even notices.

"Things have been a little bit harsh for me. The pressure alone that people put on my shoulders is enough for my guard to collapse." Miro spoke, the tiredness in her voice can be heard even though her face is not showing any emotion, but her voice can't lie. Not when she is talking to Aliah.

"You should try to look at the bright side, Miro." Aliah said in a calm manner. 

Miro turns her head to Aliah and stares at her as a smile forms on her lips.

After their conversation Miro decided to go home, however Aliah went back to her room to finish her paperwork.

"Kanina pa ako tumatawag sayo." Miro stopped on her track when she heard Cleir.

"Drain phone ko." She said without looking at Cleir. She was about to walk away but Cleir speak again.

"Drain pero nag-ring?" Miro turns her head to Cleir and stares at her coldly.

"Alam kong masama yung loob mo sakin pero sana naman isipin mo na may taong naghihintay sayo dito sa bahay." Cleir raises her voice slightly and her face turns to a frown.

"Stop acting like you're concern, hindi naman bagay sayo." Annoyed, Miro said.

"Pwede ba Miro! Minsan naman mag-isip ka naman nang tama!" Cleir yelled

"Pwede ba Cleir kahit minsan lang alamin mo yang lugar mo at kung hanggang saan ka lang!" Miro yelled back and walked in her room as she slammed her door.

Cleir just stood there in daze.

"What happened Miro?" She whispered as she shook her head in disappointment.

It's friday today, Miro and those elected officers are going to do their Oath taking. And after that they will be choosing their Adviser for the whole school year.

"Ate Miro may naisip ka na ba kung sino ang gagawin nating adviser?" Shei Arson asks, she is the elected council secretary.

"I have someone in mind." She replied as she keep her gaze on her phone.

"Sino?" Shei ask again as she sit beside Miro. They are inside the Council Office for their preparation.

"Ms. Arson."

"Seryoso ba yan Pres?" One of her officers asked.

"Balita ko medyo masungit yun." Then another

"Marami pa namang iba Pres."
