Jacobs POV.
Lagot ako nito!
Patay na talaga ako!
Bakit mo naman finorce si Pearl na mag smile kung alam mo hindi niya kaya?
Kasi ayaw kong isabi sa kaniya ang deepest secret ko!
Eh ikaw nag suggest mag play ng 20 questions.
Shut up consience, just shut up.
....
And here I am, talking to myself.
Like a madman.
Well, I-
"Mr. Smith! Are you even paying attention to my class!?" Boomed Mr. Rodrigo.
I just rolled my eyes inwardly as I took a glance at Pearl.
Kumuha ako ng isang papel at sumulat:
Sorry na ah. Hindi ko sinasadya..
Pinsa ko ita kay Pearl. She gave me a look but read it anyway.
She scribbled something, and handed it back to me.
OK
Huh? Ganon lang?
Himdi siya magagalit?
"Uy Pearl, sabay tayo lunch ha!" I whispered to her.
She just hummed and nodded. Paying attention to class.
NERD!
Huy conscience tumahimik ka!
But you can't stop me, I'm your conscience.
Ugh. Tumahimik ka na nga.
"Ano sabi mo, Jacob? Ikaw ang tumahimik! Kanina ka lang nagsasalita sa sarili mo!" Patay.
"Sorry." I said sheepishly.
He glared at me and continued to teach.
RING!
Finally! Tapos na ang klase!
"Jacob, wait." I heard a soft voice behind me. Ah oo nga, si Pearl!
"Sure, halika na."
And we had a silent walk towards the cafeteria.
"So-" I tried to apologise but she cut me off.
"It's okay. Din't even think about saying sorry again." She muttered.
Calm rage, go girl!
Shut UP!
Hay nako.
"Ako nalang bibili lunch mo." I stood up.
"Huwag na, may lunch na ako. Ayoko ng leftover asparagus eh." She chewed on her apple.
"Hahahaha! Nakakatawa ka." I laughed, she looked at me and shrugged.
"Bro! Doon tayo sa table natin! 'Wag ka dito kay freak!" I fumed up at Mikes' sudden statement. I was about to punch hi, when Pearl grabbed my fisted hands with her free hand. He didn't even look at me! She continued eating her apple and nodded at me.
She then nodded her head towards the guy who insulted her.
I gave her a surpeised look bit she just had a blank face.
I headed over to Mike and sat down.
Pearls POV.
I wish everybody would just kill me so I would be with Toby-Boo again.I ate my apple quickly and headed to English.
When I walked in, nobody was there. Then the announcer boomed.
No classes! Teachers are celebrating Mrs. Claire's birthday! Have fun, kids.
Yeah. Fun.
Since no one would come here, I just curled in the corner and cried softly.
"Oh Toby-Boo, I sure wish you were still here..." I murmured.
I finally ended my drama moment at pumunta sa labas. Nakita ko ang isang familiar na car at nilapitan ito.
Kay Jacob to ah..
Then the driver must've noticed cause he honked the car. Causing me to stumble back and speed-walk towards my car..
I ended up sitting in a corner of my room crying..
Until I fell asleep.
Zzzzz
