"You'll replace my assistant starting today, You'll do it whether you like it or not"

I immediately scoffed after hearing what he said. Is he freaking kidding me?

"And you think I will obey your orders? I'm no puppet moron!" Sigaw ko sa kanya.

He just blankly stared at me. Then after a few minutes of silence he frowned.

"Ow c'mmon! You're no fun at all.  Can you see what you did to me?" He said then slowly lifted his injured feet.

I rolled my eyes. "As far as I remember, I did nothing to injure your feet. If you count stepping on your foot, well you're too fragile for this cruel world" sabi ko sa kanya sa paraan kung paano ko kausapin ang four years old na bata.

He laughed mockingly. "Is that so?" Sabi nya sabay abot sa cellphone nya na nasa mesa. " Johnny! Yes, come here immediately... Now!" Rinig kong utos nya sa kausap nya sa phone.

Hinitsa nya pabalik sa mesa ang phone nya at tumingin sya sa akin habang nakataas ang kilay at nakahalukipkip.

Wala pang limang minuto ay mabilis na bumukas ang frontdoor ng unit at bumungad sa akin ang hingal na hingal na si Johnny, assistant ni Devyn

"You're late" maikling sabi ni Devyn sabay lahad ng kamay nya, mabilis namang binigay ni Johnny ang mga hawak nyang papel kay Devyn.

"Here" rinig kong sabi sa akin ni Devyn. Naguguluhan naman akong tumingin sa mga papel na inabot nya sa akin.

"And what do you expect me to do with these papers?" Tanong ko sa kanya habang isa-isang binubuksan ang mga envelopes. Puro hospital documents ang nasa loob, x-rays, medicine slips basta anything related to hospital records.

"Explain" sabi ni Devyn kay Johnny ng nakita nyang nakatunganga lang ako sa harap nya habang hawak-hawak ko ang documents.

Magrereklamo pa dapat si Johnny pero wala na syang nagawa ng tignan syang masama ni Devyn

"October 23, 2017 three weeks ago De-- este Master injured his right foot during the elimination games of the annual Inter-school Soccer league" paliwanag nya sa akin

"Continue" sabi ko sa kanya

"Because of that incident, he is advised to rest for a month and to take extreme care to his injured foot" Ah-uh

"After enduring his injured foot, my master attended his friend's party--that you also attended and he met you there" dagdag nya. Mas lalo namang napakunot ang noo ko ng masama na ako sa kwento nya.

"His injured foot is almost totally healed until something happened and that made his condition even worse."

Wait... I think I know where this is going!

" Number one: The pool incident"

"What? Kasalanan ko pa na tinulak nya ako sa pool?!" Sigaw ko sa kanya agad naman sumingit ang g*gong yon

"Correction: I didn't push you. I'm injured plus you're too heavy kaya naman na out of balance ako. The result, we fell together" sabi nya habang nakangisi

"What the he--"

"Number two: You stepped on his foot while you're entering Jai's car" singit ni Nerd

"Wha--"

"Number three: You intentionally stepped on his foot before going out of the car" pagtatapos ng basa ni Nerd sabay tiklop sa mga papel na hawak nya

"That's because you're being a jerk!" frustrated kong sigaw kay Devyn natawa lang sya sa akin.

"That doesn't justify your actions, the soccer finals is approaching and my coach wouldn't stop until he discovered who re-injured the best soccer player in the league" mayabang nyang sabi sa akin.

Halos manigas naman ako sa kinatatayuan ko. Our university is the legendary soccer champion for the past decades. It's our legacy, we have the most championship wins in the league.

And he isn't joking when he said that he's the best in the league. He's actually the soccer's golden boy. Nasa middle school palang sya matagal na syang hinintay ng university namin because he's the best one before.

Freshman palang sya pero naging captain na agad sya ng team. He's the MVP for god knows how long already. Kahit na papayat payat sya wala talagang nakakatalo sa kanya pagdating sa soccer.

"So what are your thoughts?" Pagpuputol nya sa pagkatulalala ko. "I even heard that my coach is your professor in one of your subjects am I right?" He said while smiling evilly. I felt goosebumps already.

His coach is my professor in my P.E. class and I'm already struggling in his subject, I hate sports! Ngayon palang nga pinag-iinitan na nya ako pano pa kaya kung malaman nyang ako ang naka-injured sa favorite player nya.

"Do you want to fail Ortega?"

It's his last words and yet I knew that it will be the start of the worst days of my life
