We're here in our classroom at music hall for our second class and it is music subject. Here we are, waiting for Ms. Red's arrival. Actually, this is my most fave subject because I can express myself more through it.
They only know me as E. One of the top rank students in school, a quiet person, talkative and mean only when I'm with my best friend, has the beauty, and they only know that I am tough and brave.
But on the other side, they don't really know me as Elle Samantha Yue at all. The hopeless romantic, living in the fiction world, created his ideal man, always in denial, a music lover, and has a paper heart.
I don't want to get close to other people because I thought it is something like giving them a knife that will just stab me later on. Shutting them out is just one of my defense mechanisms. Somehow, I want to get rid of these trust issues...
Music and fiction stories are my life.
Music really helps me a lot, not only by expressing myself through it but also by hearing about other's people pain. Yeah, masaya ako na may ibang tao ring nasasaktan because it really reminds me that I am not the only one to suffer in life.
Those lyrics of the songs made me realize na hindi lang ako nag-iisa sa mundong ito at hindi lang ako ang nakakaramdam ng nararamdaman ko.
I'm grateful that D was always there beside me and I could say that she's my only family now. Pareho kaming wala nang pamilya and it is a long story though.
We are both thankful that our future life is insured, no matter what happens. Trust funds, land and properties, businesses, and such, that operated and managed by Butler Clay because we're too young to even handle those.
Yeah, he is our parent figure legally. Both of our parents entrusted our life to Butler Clay. When it comes to profits, lahat diretso sa iba't ibang bank accounts namin ni D.
Also, fiction stories helped me to survive in life. It's my escape from reality as I wander in my own world.
There was this line in After Series of Anna Todd, saying that the best thing about reading is to escape from our lives, and to be able to live hundreds or even thousands of different lives. Non-fiction doesn't have that power, it doesn't change you the way fiction does.
I am such an escapist.
"Okay... Good morning class!" And that woke me up from my reverie. Just a little while, we greeted her back. Nagulat ang lahat nang may biglang pumasok ulit sa classroom, pero parang mas nagulat yata ako.
Naiinis pa rin ako sa nangyari kanina. This is Mr. No One. But why...? Why the hell is he directly looking at me again? His eyes are really hypnotizing...
"You have your new classmate." Sabi ni Miss.
"Omg! He's the new student!"
"What's his name kaya? Gosh!"
"He's a chic! I wanna be his girl."
"Damn! He is sooo hot."
Yan lang naman ang mga naririnig kong bulungan ng mga bulag kong classmates. At ito namang katabi ko, ang ingay. Ngayong lang ba sila nakakita ng mukhang tao?
"The heck? That was the hot guy in detention room!" Daniella exclaimed.
"Yeah, whatever" I muttered, looking bored as hell.
"Okay, quiet class! Young man, kindly introduce yourself?" Ms. Red, and by the look in her eyes, admiration was very visible in it. Like what the actual h! Pati ba naman si Miss?
Maybe he's a wizard and then he casts a spell onto everyone, a love spell perhaps? And we are going to fall for him in instant. I mentally face palmed, kung anu-ano na yung pinag-iisip ko. I shook my head to erase that nonsensical thought in my mind.
