Scott University, Philippines
RAIN'S POV
Mas dumami ang tao. Nilapitan ko siya at halata ang pagkatakot niya mula sa kaniyang pag-atras pero hindi ako tumigil hanggang sa nakadungaw na ako sa tenga niya.
"If you want to keep embarassing yourself, do so. I'll give you a hand with that," I offered her a very good choice. It's up to her if she chooses popularity over shame, I don't 'effin care. Ohh! Let me rephrase that, popularity of shame.
"Y-You—," she stuttered. I shrugged like an innocent student which isn't hard. "It's coming your way," I grinned before I took a step back, wipe my shoulder like there were dust on top or something, and walked away.
Tss. This is so tiring. Why does she has to give a f—ng hell about me? She's too obvious to want attention that much. What an attention-seeker.
Just as when I got in the elevator, a guy suddenly came in. "Save," he said with full on smile. Eww. What is he up to? I didn't bother saying a single word or even making eye contact with a complete stranger because who does that?
Bumukas ang elevator kaya naman nag-atubili akong lumabas at naglakad papunta sa room namin.
The only one thing I appreciate in this university is this garden. However, I might add to the deck on how my room went silent. Is it normal? Hindi kasi ako naniniwala na may mga klase pang hindi maingay o iyon bang lahat ay nakatutok sa libro tuwing bakanteng oras. Anyways, move on. Gaya ng dati, naupo ako sa napili kong pwesto.
Parang may hindi tama. My gut's telling me something is strange. I work my eyes around until it stopped to the person sitting next to me and pinning his eyes on mine.
What's this? He seemed strange. What's he doing? Why's he staring at me? This is ridiculous.
I gave him a blank look and then immediately looked away. I'm really not a very patient and understanding person so in the count of three and if he still won't move his eyes, I'm going to pluck it out with my bare fingers. Tss.
Three. Two...O—
The door open wide and the professor came in. He got lucky. Tss. Pero bakit parang pamilyar ang kulay ng buhok niya. I think I've seen it before. Tss. Nevermind.
The lecture went well not until someone barged in the room. Manners everyone, manners. I might have seen this kind of stuffs at my old school but this dude has no shame at all. I guarantee.
Pero alam niyo ba kung anong mas nagpapasama sa nangyayari? The fact that these girls were suddenly whispering and giggling like shit. Where the heck did that came from?
And suddenly this guy looked at me with those eyes. I can't really quite explain what's behind it. It's deep and somewhat...dangerous.
Ain't no danger for me. Tss. Bumalik ang tingin ko sa librong binabasa ko ngunit natigil ulit nang marinig ko ang pagsinghap ng mga narito maliban sa katabi ko. Unti unti akong nag-angat ng ulo ko at sa pagkakataong iyon hindi ko inaasahan ang sumunod niyang ginawa.
Ilang segundong nagkatitigan ang aming mga mata habang sobrang lapit ng mukha niya. What is he doing? Has he gone mad?
Even if I wasn't expecting that, I still played a full no-emotion face. Kung tutuusin mas nagulat pa ang mga nanonood sa amin dahil bigla ba naman niyang nilapag ang dalawang palad niya sa mesa ko at yumuko ng sobrang lapit sa mukha ko.
I saw the other girl passed out. Is she serious? Hindi ko alam kung anong umiikot sa mga utak nila at wala akong pakialam. All I want was to get this lecture done without any nonsense interruption.
"I'll count to three since you might not know me. I want you to get off my seat and apologize," he blatantly said. What the f—?
A corner of my lip curled as I gave him a grin. "Sure. You don't know me either. You see, early birds get the worm. Just get this lecture done," bulong ko malapit sa kaniyang tenga.
Parang may kung anong kuryenteng nagtatama sa pagitan ng mga mata namin. Sobrang lakas ng tensiyon. Konti nalang talaga uupakan ko na ito.
Umayos siya ng tayo at napatawa. Sabihin niyo nga sa akin, nasisiraan na ba talaga siya? Kumakalawang ang turnilyo niya. Psh. Lumapit siya sa isang babae at kinuha ang orange juice na nasa mesa niya saka bumalik sa kinaroroonan ko at unti unting ibinuhos iyon sa libro ko na napunta rin sa akin.
"Oops! It slipped," may demonyong ngiti niyang bigkas nang tuluyan niyang bitawan ang karton ng inumin. Siraulo talaga itong taong ito eh. Kung hindi lang kami nasa loob ng silid aralan at kung wala lang tao, baka nahatid ko na siya sa huli niyang hantungan.
Hindi talaga ako makapaniwala na may mga ganitong tao dito. I've seen worst and I seem to figure that some people really were born evil. Tss. Ihahampas ko na sana sa kaniya ang libro ng biglang tumunog ang bell at uwian na. "Class dismissed," nagmamadaling sambit ng propesor at lumabas. Sumunod naman ang mga kaklase namin na tila alam na kung anong mangyayari.
Naiwan kaming dalawa kasama iyong lalaking katabi ng upuan ko kanina. Sa tingin ko magkaibigan sila. Tss.
"Tell me Miss...Louise," basa niya sa I.D. ko. "Do you know me?" he asked and put his hands on his pocket.
"Good question. Do I have to?" I asked blatantly. He looked attacked. Nice one, Rain. Let's give this dude a little taste of what we call respect.
"I don't really like girls who acts courageous but whimps at a corner afterwards. They're just lame and two-faced."
"Speak for yourself. What would your father say when he's heard of your awful behavior, spilling orange juice at a girl just because you couldn't get what you want specifically a desk? What a shame, isn't it?"
Bigla niyang sinipa ang upuan na nasa harap ko at tumama iyon sa pader. "Ace..." his friend called him. Pero hindi siya pinansin ng mokong. Aba matindi.
"You think, what you're doing right now could save you? Uh-uh. We're just getting started," he said. He's obviously angry even if he tried to look cool. Tss.
"Bring it on," I stood up left that wet book and headed to the doorway. Narinig ko ang mga pagkasira ng upuan dahil sa pagbubuntong niya ng kaniyang galit.
There's always be the queen of trouble which I refer to as the bitch from before and don't forget her king with anger issues and awful, awful behavior. Tss.
