Chapter 5

"Sir. Leif is here"
Sabi ng Teacher na lumapit sakin kanina

Derederetso lang akong pumasok kasunod ko si Layla

"How dare you!"
Biglang sigaw sakin ng Principal

Pero hindi ako nakaramdam ng takot
Ngising ngisi naman si Layla pero hindi ko sya pinagtutuunan ng pansin

"Who are you to argue with my grand daughter!?"

"I'm Leif Pauline Parrington Sir"
Deretsong sagot ko na hindi man lang yumuyuko dahil hindi naman sya karesperespeto

"What did you say?!"

"I said I'm Leif Pauline Parrington"
Ulit ko pa

"Of course we know that Dumb!"
Sigaw ni Layla pero di ko parin sya pinansin

"Bastos ka pala eh!"
Sigaw ng principal. Attitude ka ghorl?

"Pero mas bastos yang anak niyo"
Sabi ko at ngumisi

Galit na galit syang tumayo at dinuro ako

"You need to bring your Parents here Tomorrow! Because if you did not bring them you'll totally expell in this school!"

Ngumisi pako ng todo kaya nagalit pasya

"At bakit kapa tumatawa? Actually sa Ginawa mo sa apo ko at kay Zero ay hindi na katanggap tanggap yon. They must be respected. And YOU! SHOULD! RESPECT! THEM!"

Ngumisi muna ako bago magsalita

"And who are they to be respected?"
Sarcastic na sabi ko

Napahawak sya sa ulo sa sobrang gigil

"She is Layla! And she is my grand daughter and I am the Principal! While Zero is the Son! of the Family who has the biggest investment here in school! Do you understand it now? Hindi kaba nakapag elementary?!"

"Well I don't care if she is your grand daughter while you're the Principal same as Zero because my Respect is depends on people. Kapag binastos ako edi babastusin ko rin. Kung anong ginawa sakin ibabalik ko rin. Do you know what we call that?"
Tinaas ko pa ang kilay ko sa Principal
"Give and Take"
Dagdag ko

"You don't have the right to say that because you're only a student and we're---"

"Yes I do have a right because I'm also a human if you're the Principal and I'm just a student then what's the point? we're equal because we live in the same world, we inhale the same air, we can see the sky and the clouds. Ang pinagkaiba lang natin ay....... Nauna kang ipinanganak"
Pagputol ko sa kanya

"You're unbelievable!"
Singhal niya

"I will not bring my Parents here tomorrow but I'll bring a member of my family"

"You should!"
Sigaw niya at tinalikuran ko na sya at lalabas na sana ng Principal office kaso may naalala ako.

"I am a Valedictorian in Elementary and had a 25 medals. And I'm also a Valedictorian when I Graduated in Grade 10 with 32 Medals. So there's no way for you to say that I didn't studied in elementary"
Sambit ko na may pang aasar atsaka nako lumabas ng Office.

"Leif anong sinabi sayo?"
Tanong ni Heather pagbalik ko ng room

"kinamusta ako"
Sagot ko tsaka umupo

"Ah mabuti naman kung ganon"
