CHAPTER I
Makiko’s POV
“I’m Makiko Mari Sy, 17 years old. My mother is a japanese business woman, while my step-father is a filipino-chinese business man.” I introduced myself.
“Please, take your seat in front of Mr. Arcangel” The teacher said as she points at the seat in front of the very last seat at the back.
I quickly took my seat and put my things down.
I’m pretty lucky I got this seat. I’m far-away from the teacher and beside the window.
“Lucky” I whisper to myself, smiling like an idiot...I guess.
Class started and at each subject we had to change classrooms and teachers.
Suddenly I hear the lunch bell ring, letting me know that it’s already 12 o’clock.
Lunch break came, I went to the canteen to buy food and went back to our classroom. Slowly, people started to disappear. I laugh in my mind. I’m left alone and not a single person out of 36 people in here came to ask me if I wanted to eat lunch with them and I still haven’t made a single friend, not to mention I haven’t even talked to anyone yet. Seriously, I’m like the forever alone guy I see my friends post on facebook. But, whatever, it’s not like I care. I already know I won’t make any friends. And well its not just lunch break that passed, the whole day has passed already. A week in school has passed already...then a month passed and yet I am still alone.
Left alone…
Oh well, I’m used to it.
It has been a month since i've started going to school and now i feel like not going again. I don't know why though.
Yung mga kaklase ko nagkukwentuhan nanaman silang lahat. Lahat sila nagtatawanan nanaman. Lahat sila masayang nagbibiruan at nagaasaran nanaman. Habang ako, heto, nagiisa. Ay, hindi, mali pala. Dalawa pala kaming nagiisa dito ng lalaking nakaupo sa likod ko. Parang comedy kami lang. Dalawa na nga lang kaming nagiisa dito pero hindi pa kami naguusap. Nakakatawa tuloy. But, then again, i don't know how i would approach him, and i guess he's the same as me. So, yeah, we're like statues here. He's been there all day sitting, looking outside the window. And me? i've been sitting all day, drawing. Ewan ko din, paano nya nagagawang tagalan na nakatingin lang sa labas ng bintana at nakatunganga. Ni wala man lang isang tao dito ang lumalapit sa kanya. And yes, that makes two loners here sa classroom namin. And, guess what? kaming dalawa yun.
Suddenly the lunch bell rang. Lunch break na pala. Pero ngayong araw hindi ako kakain ng lunch ko magisa. I smile to myself. Why? kasi i decided kaninang umaga na ngayong araw aayain kong kumain ng lunch ang lalaking nakaupo sa likod ko. Yep, i still don't know his name. Kaya naman nagdesisyon din akong magpakilala sa kanya ngayong araw.
Tumayo ako at hinarap ang upuan ko sa kanya. Halata naman sa mukha nya na nagulat sya. Kahit hindi nya pinapakita sa expression nya, nakikita ko naman sa mga mata nya. Tinatanong ng mga mata nya kung anong balak kong gawin. Nagtinginan naman ang mga kaklase naming papalabas ng pinto sa amin. Well, i bet they're wondering why i'm doing something like this, but like the hell i care to what they're thinking.
Nilabas ko ang lunch ko and asked him, "Nasaan na ang lunch mo?"
Hindi sya sumagot at tinuro lang ang lunchbox na nasa gilid ng desk nya.
"Ah, so, nagbabaon ka pala. Kaya pala masarap ang kain mo lagi eh." I said, smiling at him.
"Ang ganda mo" Bigla nyang sinabi na ikinagulat ko talaga.
