Mist After Rain

Chapter 1

"Ms. Dela Vega and Mr. Hontiveros! Go to the Detention Office! Now!"

I just rolled my eyes as I stood up and walked towards the door. As usual, kami na naman ang dahilan ng pagka-init ng ulo ng guro namin na si Mr. Dizon. I really hate this teacher!

Mabagal lang ang paglakad ko sa corridor. I was about to step downstairs when I heard someone speak.

"Anong gagawin natin n'yan?" I tilted my head in the direction where I heard the voice.

There I saw a guy who's cooly standing there, leaning against the wall, matangkad ito, gwapo dahil sa bilog na pasingkit sa dulo niyang mga mata, at maganda ang hubog ng katawan. He has a jet black hair and tanned skin. He is Cain Hontiveros or known as the 'Baddest among the bad boys' here on our campus.

And he's actually my best friend despite his bad damn attitude. Well, kaya nga kami nagkasundo. Sabi nga nila ay 'birds of the same feathers flock together'.

Inarapan ko lang siya sa tanong niya. Like duh? Hindi pa ba siya nasanay sa ganitong setup? Linggo-linggo na lang kaming ipinapatawag sa detention office.

"Ano pa? Edi sa Detention Office ang bagsak natin. This is your fault Cain!" I shouted at him and while continuing to walk downstairs.

"Wow, Harry! E sino ba kasi ang nakaisip na punuin ng gum ang buhok ni Jace, ha?" angal niya habang nakasunod lamang sa likuran ko.

"Yeah, me. But we wouldn't do that if you didn't agree with my stupid plan." I said in a lazy tone of voice.

"Exactly, now you admitted that your plan is so fvcking stupid," he laughed. Nang-iinis na naman ba ang lalaking 'to?

May dalawang babaeng nakaharang na nakaupo sa hagdanan kaya naman sinipa ko ang mga likuran ng mga ito.

"Move!" bulyaw ko at walang anu-ano ay umalis kaagad ang mga ito sa hagdan. All eyes on me, nagbulung-bulungan pa ang mga estudyante sa paligid pero wala akong pakialam. I don't give a damn about them.

"This is a stairway, not a fvcking bench to stay on, tss," Cain said irritatedly on them.

Naramdaman ko na lang ang pag-akbay sa akin ni Cain at sinabayan sa paglakad.

"You even punched Jace hard, that's why the trouble got bigger," I removed his hand from my shoulder. "Darn you." I cursed at him but he just smirked.

"You're really a short-tempered huh?" he then passed by me.

"You're really a short-tempered huh? " I mimicked while making a face.

Sinundan ko lang siya sa paglalakad nang biglang mapansin na hindi pala ito ang daan papuntang Detention Office. Huminto naman ako sa paglalakad at tinawag siya.

"Hey, Cain!" I yelled and faced me with a frown. He mouthed 'what?'.

"Where are you going? The Detention Office is over there!" I shouted while pointing to the left side.

He didn't answer and started walking again. Problema niya? Wala na itong ginawa kung 'di inisin ako ngayong araw! Ugh!

Tumakbo ako papalapit sa kanya at nang maabutan ko na siya ay binatukan ito.

"Sh*t!" he cursed and winced.

Kahit tarantado 'yang si Cain, ako lang ang nakakagawa ng gano'n sa kanya. And I really enjoy that but I know my limitations, kapag si Cain ang nagalit manalangin ka na! Manghihiram ka talaga ng mukha sa aso.

"Anong problema mo, ha? Kanina nang-iinis ka tapos ngayon deadma naman? Detention Office remember?" nakapa-mewang pa ako sa harapan niya.

He looked at me seriously and let out a sigh.
