Chapter 35: Preparation

❇ ❇ ❇

Jealousy is inevitable.

❇ ❇ ❇

= Aria =

Oh my freaking gosh! How am I gonna prepare myself for this?! Ugh.

"Just check online if there's still a gown for rent." suggestion ni Grae na hindi na kailangan ma-stress dahil may damit na.

"Hell, no. Ew. Who knows what those gowns been through!" =.=

"Well, wala ka na ng choice. It's rather magre-rent ka or hindi ka pupunta." sabi naman ni Paige na may damit na rin.

Eeeeehhhh. Ayoko mag-rent. Nakaka-bawas ng pride. Kaya ko naman mag-pagawa. Wala na nga lang ng time. Ugh. Oh my god. What did I forgot a thing important like this one.

And plus, nag-check ako kanina ng mga gowns for rent and it was freaking horrible! Like, really horrible. Ugh.

(╥_╥)

Lahat sila may damit na. Pati si Summer na akala ko hindi pupunta ay may damit na. Err. Wait. Wala rin pala si Blythe.

"Blythe, ano na?" nanlulumong tanong ko sa kanya. Hindi naman kasi pwedeng hindi ako pumunta ngayong taon. Halos lahat ng ka-year ko at pupunta at iba na ang feeling pag-first time mo next year.

"I don't know?" naguguluhang patanong na sagot niya. "Gusto ko rin pumunta kaya baka mag-rent na lang ako."

Buti na siya, walang kaarte-arte sa katawan. May chance kasi na baka galing sa taong may contagious skin disease ang magamit kong gown and ineffective 'yung pag-dry cleaning nila rito.

"Aria, bawasan mo na kasi ang pagiging maarte mo. Kahit ngayon lang." paki-usap naman ni Marco.

"Okay, fine." you should know how much effort I have put into that decision. It's hard af.

Tumingin ulit ako online pero sa ibang pages and websites naman dahil nakakadiri talaga 'yung mga nakita ko kanina. Like, seriously.

Scroll up and down.

Turns left to right.

Type another website.

Okay. This is it. I have made my freaking decision about the gown I'm gonna wear and it's a surprise.

In-order ko na 'yung gown which is fortunately, within 24 hour delivery lang siya. Hayy. Next year, I'm gonna plan this good.

"That doesn't look bad." sabi ni Paige nung ipakita ko sa kanya 'yung gown. Of course it doesn't look bad. Ako kaya 'yung pumili. Thoroughly.

"So, what do we know?" tanong na ni Luke dahil tapos na kaming mamili ni Blythe.

"Walk like freaking runway models to the cafeteria?" suggestion naman ni Summer kaya nagkatinginan kaming walo.

Oh my god. What have I done? This is a proud moment for me. (∩o∩)

"That, I could work with." what. I have no objections. I already rented a gown. I am proud of Summer. And this "walking like freaking models kind of thing" is so great that I want us eight to walk like this for the rest of the year.

"Let's go." at tinungo na namin ang cafeteria at doon nag-palipas ng oras sa pagkain. Hayy. #YOLO #PiggingOut #CuttingClasses

= Sophia =

Oh my god! I am in love! Potato chips, will you marry me?! Please. Ikaw lang ang siguradong bagay na never akong lolokohin. Shet. Ang sarap. *Q*

Sa sobrang sarap ng potato chips na 'yun, hindi ko tuloy maiwasan ang pag-iisip tungkol dito buong araw. Hayy. Ba't kasi ang sarap?!

Anyway, ganito ang naging araw ko:

First Period: History

As usual, history, hindi ako nakikinig at ginawa lang ang bago kong favorite hobby: ang pag-iisip tungkol sa mahiwagang potato chips *angels voice*

And I'm Daydreaming
With the chin in the palm of my hands
Thinking of you
And you
And only you

Mali ba ang lyrics? So? I got a magical genie here to correct it but I won't because it's a waste of a precious wish. I'm so lucky.

Gaya nga ng kanta, I'm daydreaming with the chin in the palm of my hands but hell no, I'm not thinking about you. You wish. I mean, I wish. K fine. I'm not funny.

Who cares about school, Marion, grades, and midnight balls? Potato chips is Love. *Q*

It's official. I am obsessed with potato chips. =u=

"Ehem." tawag pansin sa akin ni History professor pero like I said, who cares?

Siniko na ako ni Kambal na sign para isabi na pansinin ko ang professor.

"What?" hindi ko naman intensyon na magtunog maldita pero hindi umayon eh. Kaya ayun, nagtunog rude.

"Would you please listen to me? You might learn something new." sometimes, I wonder if kakambal niya rin ang professor sa potions. Halos pareho kasi kung sabihan ang mga estudyante eh. As in, the same freaking way!

"You're teaching history. There's nothing new in it." boom. Yes. That was me. I contain sass.

Pinandilatan niya ako at tsaka inisa-isa ang mga words na "Get. Out. Of. The. Room."

"My pleasure. Girls, mauna na ako sa next subject, *muah*" at naglakad na palabas ng parang runway model. =.=

P. S.: Hindi lang sila ang may karapatang maglakad na parang runway model. #Copycats

So, nag-solo flight ako sa paglalakad na parang runway model hanggang sa marinig ko ang pag-uusap ng walo tungkol sa coming midnight ball.

And buti na lang at hindi oriented sila Blythe and Aria. Bwahahahahaha.

So, pinakinggan ko lang silang mag-usap tungkol sa mga chenes chenes ng mga buhay nila.

Wala naman akong problema. Prepared na ang gown ko and unfortunately, mas maganda pa rin ang gown ni Marion.

Yes, I know. I'm a backstabber. Who cares?

Jealousy is inevitable. You can't hold off jealousy.

I hate my life. Why? Despite being rich, I never felt actually happy. Yes. I get what I want but Marion always gets the best ones.

I haven't made actual friends and I have never been liked by people. Sucks, right?

But you know yourself that there's always that fire inside that burns brighter than the flames around you.

The only thing you've gotta do is to make that fire burn brighter and make it shine.

Author's Note:

Okay, hi! Thank you for continuing this story and making it this far. Not most people do but thank you.

I'm here to sort things out. About talking back to teachers. Please don't do that. You don't know how much they've been trough and the best thing you could do is not to be a burden to theme. I am not an expert. I repeat. I am not an expert.

Thank you.

PS: Life is a bitch. Never let it beat you down and if it does, stand up and walk like freaking runway models. Boom. *Fireworks*
