The Playlist // Ricci Rivero Fanfiction (On-Hold)

Kabanata 5

Lumipas ang mga araw and here we go again, it's Monday. 2 days after nung Family Day na but still, the whole campus is still talking about it. Especially nung sa photo booth.

"So, how was it? I'm talking about the 'Ina-and-Ricci-moment' grabe sabog Twitter mo no?" Panimula ni Blanche.

Actually after nun, nabigla ako kasi yung mga tao dito lumalapit na samin ni B. Like, di kasi kami nilalapit nila.

But after that night with Ricci, they're here. And that kinda sucks really.

"Well it was fun and the night is pretty lit. Teka teka, sabi mo sakin pupunta ka? Where were you B?" Her lips curved at tuluyan na akong hinila papunta sa isang sulok ng locker area.

"I met with Derrick, you know yung ka chat ko from DLSU. He's super gwapo Ina! Kaya ipapaubaya ko nalang sa'yo yang si Ricci. OOG!" She exclaimed, pero hindi masyadong malakas. Haha!

(a/n: btw, OOG means Oh Our God. Yan na kasi yung sinasabi kong expression instead of Oh My God. Di na ako magiging selfish. Hahaha)

"So, you lied to your best friend para lang makipag meet up dun sa lalaking yun?"

"Oy hindi ah! I texted you right away, nagtaka nga ako ba't di ka nag reply. But I said to myself na baka you're enjoying the party, and I concluded na you really did enjoyed it."

Blanche winked at me as if na may gustong iparating. I know what she meant and then sinapak ko siya. Buti sa kanya, haha!

"Ano ba! Sakit nun ah, if don't believe me check your phone now." I sighed and yun nga, I checked my phone.

From B💕🦄 :
  Ina, I can't come to the party. Nag aya si Derrick eh. Huwag mo sabihin kahit sino. Ingat and enjoy! 😊😘

sent 7:29 pm.

"Damn." I said, tuloy akong naguilty sa aking sinabi kay Blanche. I really did enjoyed the party no?

"Told you. Nevermind that, tara let's go nalang sa cafeteria. We still have 30 minutes before first period."

"Whatever satisfies you." Tumawa si B because of what I said. I'm not the type of friend na hindi kayang lumunok ng pride no!

Kaya susundin ko nalang kahit anong gusto niya, but only for a day. *wink wink*

"So, balita ko nagka good time raw kayo nung Rivero." Lumingon ako and saw the CASA Sisters.

Andyan nanaman sila, ruining my happiness. Happiness? Oo, eto eating.

"You saw it on Twitter diba?" I said to them without even looking. Call me rude, but they're 4x rude over to me and B for the past 4 years.

"Of course we did. Ang sikat na kaya niya, well maybe you just want to be involved in his timeline para sumikat no? And look, you even matched your clothes with him. Wow ha."

"Social Climber."

"Gold Digger."

"You're just doing your best  para mapansin ni Ricci! You're not even beautiful like us! Kapal. Porket kapatid niya si Kib ko, ganyan na maka-asta." Puna ni Samantha.

"Wow ha! Kayo pa yung pumunta rito habang kami nanahimik lang at kayo pa yung may ganang mangganyan? How on Earth are you even here? Is that a LaSallian attitude? You know what, matagal na talaga akong nagtitimpi sa inyong apat eh. And excuse me, nagkataon lang na parehong pareho kami ni Ricci ng susuotin. Four years! Pero kung tawagin niyo ako ng ganyan, I won't allow it. I won't allow you to call me names na hindi naman totoo. Why don't you live your life and stop being so insecure about mine?"

And with that, tumayo ako and packed my things. I looked at the crowd, damn lahat ng flash nakatutok sa amin.

I suddenly felt cold liquid draining over me, and I concluded someone poured a drink.

Can this day get any worse? I then ran from the cafeteria to the changing rooms. Without thinking na wala pala akong damit. Damn, di ko na check horoscope ko.

"Ina, your kuya is here. And um, Ricci too. They're waiting for you outside."

Pagkasabi ni Blanche nun, I quickly went out of the cubicle and out of the room.

Great. Just great. I missed my first period, I'm now soaked wet and kuya is here. With Rivero.

"Kuya, you don't have to come-"

"Anong pinagsasabi mo? I had to Ina! Di mo ito sinasabi sa'kin ha! How long? Four years?" Galit niyang sinabi sakin.

"I'm sorry. I just don't want you to be involved in this thing kuya, and dinala mo pa si Ccing." I faked a smiled at him.

"No, I insisted on coming after they uploaded the video on Twitter." Ricci explained.

"What? They uploaded that? Ano na ang mangyayari sa akin ngayon? My grades." I almost cried thinking about my future. I don't care if they bully me over and over again but my grades!

"Wala kang kasalanan Ina, you did the right thing. Magpalit kana, alam na ng lahag ito."

Tumango nalang ako at kinuha na yung paper bag na naglalaman ng isa ko pang uniform.

"Mr. Montalbo, the school is now notified about this incident and we are now making a solution to this."

"Thank you po sir. We're looking forward na hindi na po ito mauulit pa." Sabi naman ni kuya.

"Of course." Kuya and Ricci shook hands with the counselor and pinalabas na kami ng office.

"So now what?" I asked.

"They're having their week off." I raised my brows at what he said. Ano daw?

"What? Anong week off?"

"They're suspended. Di nga sana ako papayag sa ganon lang eh, four years yun no."

"So ano yung gusto mong mangyare?"

"He wants them gone Ina. He wants them to be expelled." Ricci said.

"You know you can't do that. Grabe naman yun!"

"Oh I can Ina." He chuckled at nagtungo sa parking area.

Tuluyan na silang umalis and headed to I don't know where.

"Grabe ah! If nakita mo lang anong ginawa nilang dalawa kanina. Mapapatawa ka nalang, buti nga dun sa apat!" Sabi naman ni Blanche.

Ano nanaman ba ito? Hay nako kuya!

"Oh you'll hear a very nice story. Kaya tara, punta tayo sa favorite place natin and I'll tell you."

Oh dear. Nainvolve pa talaga si Ccing ah!
