Clan Heiresses: Taming the Gangsters (COMPLETED)

Chapter 35

(JENNY'S P.O.V)

SOMETHING'S WRONG. Something's really off but I can't explain what. Ads and Vine are acting strangely since we got to our room up until our first subject for this afernoon. They're really quiet the whole day.

"What do you think happened?"

Man who's beside me whispered. I just shrugged my shoulder.

"So class, Prof. Joseph and I will be coaches for some sport events in this upcoming Intramurals. I suggest, you sign up now because the try-outs will be this coming friday. I'll repeat, joining is compulsory. Your participation will be included as 30% in your final grade."

Woah! 30 percent?! Gusto ba talaga nilang manalo ang department namin this time kaya ang mataas na grado ang pinang eengganyo nila? Well, if I have to give my opinion, it's quite effective.

"Are you sure you'll be joining for table tennis?"

"Hmm.. Kaya pupunta ako mamaya sa gym para magsign up at mag observe."

"Ako din. Sa volleyball."

"Hey, Ads diba sa Chess ka?"

Untag ko sa kanya na kanina pa tahimik.

"H-ha? O-oo."

Kung ano man ang nangyari sa kanila sana na naman masabi na nila sa amin.

The long class hours have finally ended. We decided to go back to our room dahil kailangan din ni Nica ng makakasama. Pero imbes na samahan kami ng dalawa ay nagpaalam sila na may pupuntahan lang matapos makatanggap ng text.

Minsan hindi ko maiwasang mag isip na baka kahit sila ay tinatawagan na mula sa manor. I know I told Butler Alfred to stop communicating with one of us but how can I be so sure of that? Hanggang ngayon, the nagging feeling of keeping a secret from my childhood bestfriends is haunting me.

We just went to the room where Nica is.
Naabutan namin ito na nag aayos ng mga flowers sa vase. Mukhang maayos na ang pakiramdam nya.

"You know what, I'm starting to get bored in here."

"I noticed."

Lumapit sa kanya si Man at may iniabot.

"Ito. Pakidagdag dyan sa vase masterpiece mo."

"Another flower? Ang yaman naman nyang admirer mo ha. This time tulip naman. Wala man lang bang note na iniiwan?"

"Ang mga nauna wala. Pero ang isang yan, ni hindi ko lang alam kung matatawag bang valid note yun. This time kasi sa locker ko nakita yan. Nakadikit habang may note na: For Ms. Espinosa ONLY. If you're not her, dont take it. If you will, you're dead. Encoded."

"Yikes. Ang harsh naman. Death threat lang? Baka stalker at hindi admirer."

"Malay ko. But the flowers are really beautiful."

"Well, true. Pero kapag ganito, matatakot ako. Malay mo psychopath pala ang isang 'to."

"Huwag mo nga akong takutin!"

"Aray naman! Kung makabatok ka naman, wagas! Kagagaling ko lang sa sakit oh!"

"Ikaw kasi eh."

Tingnan mo 'tong dalawang 'to. Nag away pa talaga. For the past few days, Manilyn has been receiving flowers from an unknown person. Minsan sa bag o desk nya iniiwan ang mga ito. May ribbon pang kasama bawat araw.

"Nagugutom na ako."

"Then let's all go to the cafeteria. Magaling naman na siguro yang paa mo diba Nica?"
