I Don't Want to Fall in Love</3

Chappie 5: Highschool Isn't complete without the Queen Bees and School Jerk.

So next day maaga akong nagising. Before 7 ready na kong pumasok. Don't get me wrong, hindi naman sa excited ako, coz like yesterday hindi ko parin talaga magawang makatulog ng maayos. Inagahan ko na din gising ko since ayokong maencounter yung neighbor ko, for all I know baka maBV lang lalo ako sa kanya.

Pagdating ko sa school nagtanong lang ako dun sa guards and mabilis ko ng nahanap yung dean's office and nadun na din si Alice and Jasper.
“Please join us Ms. Hutcherson or should I say Ms. De los Reyes.” Ms. Laurel smiled.

We discussed the things about me and school all the basic things I need to know and kung panong magiging set-up namin nina Jasper. After a couple of minutes okay na, Ms. Laurel’s secretary accompanied me to my classroom. Sa totoo lang, hindi ko mafeel yung excitement or even nervousness, it just felt ordinary. That nothing big's gonna happen. Para ngang wala akong maramdaman e. Sabi ni Alice siguro hindi pa daw nagsisink in sakin na dito na talaga ko papasok and everything. I doubt it. Bayaan ng emotionless kesa naman pag-isipan ko pa ng bongga. Well, here it goes I guess.

“Okay class, listen up, we have a new student this year. Sige na Mai, pasok ka na.” Ms. Ramirez my new adviser instructed me, so ayun pumasok nga ako. So there I was in front of 30 or so people, I can see some of the girls whispering, the boys looking bored some were eyeing me up and down and I actually heard someone say four eyes. Stupid glasses!

“Come on Mai, introduce yourself.” Ms. Ramirez smiled at me, I sighed.
“My name’s Cha—uhm, I mean Mai de los Reyes.” I said, I even gave them a small smile.
“Go on, tell us more about yourself.” Seriously?! I have to go through the whole new student drill? I sighed again.
“Well, I’m 15. I’m from the province…”
“Which province?” a girl asked and now I seriously want to kick the shit out of her, I racked my brain and tried to remember which province Alice told me I was supposed to be from. Was it Rizal? Davao? Shit!
“You’re supposed to be from Quezon, right?” I turned and saw Nick, kaklase ko siya?! God, pati ba naman dito? Then it clicked, yes Quezon, teka panu niya nalaman?
“San sa quezon Ms. De los Reyes?” Ms. Ramirez asked.
“Sa Lucban, Quezon po.” I turned to her.
“Oh, a great place you have there, okay so Mr. Montero?” she called and a guy at the back stood up.
“Yes Miss?”
“Can you please show Ms. de los Reyes around? Ms. De los Reyes Mr. Montero is the student body president and I’m sure he’ll be glad to show you around.” I nodded and looked at the guy, he smiled at me so I did too.

That was when I really looked at him, wait. I think I know that smile. I think I know him. I just can't remember where.
“Lets see, san ka kaya pwedeng maupo?” Ms. Ramirez looked around the room. She then pointed at a vacant seat by the window and beside that was another vacant seat.
“Okay lang ba na dun ka maupo?” she asked me.
“Sure.” I smiled at her as I made my way to the back.

So ayun naglalakad lang ako papunta dun sa likod and I was about to pass by the girl who asked where I was from and the little bitch deliberately tripped me and syempre nadapa ako! Shit! And the stupid class burst into laughter.

“Ms. De los Reyes, are you okay?” Ms. Ramirez asked me as I helped myself up. I glared at the girl.
“You did that on purpose.”
“Excuse me? Are you accusing me? Hoy hindi ko na kasalanan kung clumsy ka noh.”
“I am definitely not clumsy. You tripped me on purpose.”
“Ms. Fernandez, is something wrong?” Ms. Ramirez asked as she approached us.
“There’s nothing wrong miss, it was her fault clumsy siya kaya siya nadapa.”
“Hindi ako madadapa kung hindi mo ko tinalapid. God, cant you just admit it?” I insisted.
“Bakit ako aamin when I didn’t do anything wrong?” Sabi niya, tumayo pa siya to try and intimidate me, sorry na lang siya coz it's a complete fail. Magkasing tangkad lang kami and even if she was taller hindi ako matatakot sa kanya no.
