Chain of Memories

Chapter 12

"What did you said? " tanong ko kay Ganymede. I was dumbfounded by his words. The last time I checked, my partner will be Julius, now, why the heck he said that he will be my partner?

I laughed sarcastically at him but he seems so serious at all. Abnormal ba ang isang ito?

"You will be my partner. I've decided na mas magandang ako na ang maging partner mo kaysa ibang tao" he told me and walked away from me but I tried to catch him.

"What are you saying? Are you crazy or something like that? " I asked but he just smirked at me then went straight to one roomI followed him inside that room only to find out that it is the Organization Group wherein a group of student has their own cubicles where they can do the work for their org.

"Good afternoon, Gan. " sabi ng ilang estudyante na nakakita sa kanya.

He nodded his head and looked at me "She's a transferee in our school. If ever you still need one in any of your organization--" pangunguna niya.

"I want Journalism! " I said immediately. Pakiramdam ko kasi uunahan na naman niya ako kahit sa organization man lamang.

Sino ba siya sa akala niya para pangunahan ako? Duh! May sarili naman akong utak para magdecide ng org na gugustuhin ko.

He looked at me and nodded his head. "Journalism? "

"Yeah, is there a problem? " I asked him. Umiling siya tsaka humarap ulit sa mga tao na nakatingin sa aming dalawa.

"Rain!" sigaw niya kung kanino.

Maya-maya ay lumapit ang tinawag niyang Rain sa aming dalawa. "Rain, this is Isabelle. Isabelle, Rain. " pagpapakilala niya sa lalaking nasa harapan ko ngayon.

"He is the head of the Journalism Organization dito sa campus so if you want to be part of their organization feel free to join them. " he tapped the shoulder of Rain. "Rain kindly accept her sa org niyo kahit ilagay niyo siya sa research team niyo--"

"Ah excuse me, I want to be part of their creative team if meron. " sagot ko bigla. Lagi na lang akong inuunahan eh. Nakakaasar na.

"Sure meron kaming vacant kasi lumipat yung isang member namin sa ibang org. " ngumiti sa akin si Rain bago hinarap si Ganymede

"Bukas ko na lang siya kakausapin, Pres. Kahit ganitong oras lang din may quiz kasi ako ngayon kaya kailangan kong mag-aral. " humarap ulit sa akin si Rain. "Rain Michael Perez ang name ko and you are? " he offered his hand for a shake hand.

"Isabelle Francheska Zalderiagga. " and then I accepted his hand. He removed his hand first bago ulit magsalita.

"Basta bukas na lang same time tapos diretso ka na lang dito ah. " sabi niya sa akin.

"Sige" tumango si Rain bago niya kami iwan ni Ganymede. I turned to him, I was about to asked a question but he walked away from me.

"Hey! You're still not answering my question!" he stopped midway and turned to me kaya napahinto ako bigla sa pagharap niya.

"Sabi ni Miss Faith kapag pumayag kang sumayaw ikaw ang magiging partner ko." seryosong sabi niya.

Eto? Sasayaw? Gusto kong matawa. I eyed him from head to foot. Seryoso? Kaya ba niyang sumayaw? Baka nga masyado pang matigas yung body niya to dance.

"Pero di ba hindi ka naman kasali? Hindi ka naman sasayaw?" I asked him. Masyado akong naguguluhan sa kanya. Hindi ko alam kung niloloko niya ako or what.

"I will join." he smirked and walked away again. Sinundan ko siya hanggang makarating kaminsa loob ng classroom.

Pinipilit ko pa rin talaga na hindi siya ang partner ko kasi masyadong biglaan! I was informed na si Julius talaga tapos ngayon ay siya na. I stared on his back habang nasa loob ng classroom at nakikinig sa discussion ng teachers namin.
