Glasses

Chapter 1: MASUNGEEEEET!

I can't stand.

It's as if my feet are planted on the floor. My hands are pasted on the desk and my neck is positioned straightforwardly. 

The room is so dark, my glasses reflect the screen of my computer. My fingers are clicking the keys rapidly. Ahhh(sigh), what a fine music.

There I was, playing my favorite thing. It's already 2AM, I have my classes tomorrow 7AM, worse I have 2 quizzes, and guess what, I haven't reviewed yet. 

The resounding clicks probably irritated HIM, this guy beside me, that's why he fell into my shoulder soundly sleeping. I never realized it until his saliva bathed my clavicle. 

I was about to finish my game when he suddenly whispered something while he's in that state.

"Sige pa. Kaya pa yan. Weak pala 'to eh." (More. You can still do it. What a weakling).

I moved him to the bed and rested his head on the pillow. I turned off the computer and I washed my face. And now I am ready to finish Apocalypse in my dreamland. And so I slept.

...

Shoot! It's already 8AM. 

I didn't turn on the alarm, I knew it.

Geez, I'm really effed-up now. 

And what did shock me even more is that Riley is not beside me. That bastard! He didn't wake me up! Going to school by himself!!! Once I see him, his attractive face will never get safely out of my hands. I will devour his...

I was away with those thoughts when suddenly he, Riley, entered the room bringing a tray with a piece of cake, a banana, and a glass of milk . A breakfast I guess?

"Sa'n galing yan?" (Where did you get those?), I asked him with a very frustrated face.

"Basta." (Just there.) He then left them on the table next to my computer.

"Oy 'wag diyan! Matatapunan yung computer ko." (Hey, don't put it there. My computer will get spilled."), I said furiously.

"Ok ok. Eto na." (Okay okay. Here.) He lifted the tray and handed over the cake in a saucer with a plastic fork. I took it.

"San kaya nya to galing?" (Where on earth did he get this?) I thought just the moment I ate it.

"Bakit ba ang sungit mo NA NAMAN?" (What makes you mad AGAIN?"), he asked.

Trying to emphasize that I'm always angry! He's really getting into my nerves. 

I ignored him, I know he's making fun of me again. So I asked him a different question which is by the way, a very appropriate one right about now.

"Pa'no na yung quizzes natin nyan?" (What will happen to our quizzes now?) "Tara, baka makahabol pa tayo. Si Sir Shiny lang din naman yon eh. Late naman lagi yon." (Come on, we can still catch up. Knowing Sir Shiny, he'll be late for sure.) I said.

He did not answer. 

His face doesn't have any reaction on it... Like it's insulting or whatever. 

Instead, he just turned on my computer and sat on my chair like there's no startling him. This jerk. He really pisses me off!

"DOTA na naman? Ilang oras ba tayong naglaro kagabi? 6 hours? 7?" (You're playing DOTA again? Just how long did we play last night? 6 hours? 7?) I scolded him.

"Ikaw lang yon. Nakatulog ako di ba?" (It's just you. I fell asleep remember?) Then a wicked smile followed.

Yea, that's it. I've really gone berserk. I can't argue with this guy. I don't even know why do I stick with him. Are we really friends? Like how? How did we? 

I don't see any reason to stay AT MY OWN ROOM!!! I have to go to school. To take the exams and to stay away from the devil. I grabbed my uniform and without saying anything, I left him there.

I can't believe this is happening. I'm leaving my own room. I can't imagine myself right now for the first time in 18 years I'm this hysterical.  

Just when I was leaving my apartment...

"Papasok ka?" (Are you going to class?) He asked with a plain reaction.

"Ah, hindi, maglalaba" (No, I'm doing the laundry.) Then I make-face him.

"MASUNGEEEEET!" (Sarcastic!) He replied just about the moment I shut the door.
