Eternally

Chapter 9: Cry

Avery P.O.V.

It was another regular school day, and a freaking Monday too, yay 😒.

As you can see, I'm clearly dying in class, again, like, always. With an open book in my desk, pretending to be listening to the lunatic in front of me.

It's English class, Sir Alvares is the teach. Guess what, he's teaching me how to talk.

I think kaya ko naman magsalita, and I also think kaya yun ng halos lahat ng tao dito sa classroom. So why teach what this mouth can do?

Gusto ko na umuwi.

I looked around, nararamdaman ko na may tumitingin sakin. Then I laid my eyes on his gray eyes. Oh him and his contact lenses.

Tinitignan niya lang ako with his brow up, he's kinda far from me, na sa likod ako ng classroom at nasa gitna siya. His head was tilted, his eyes pointing at me. I smiled, fake-ly.

Wala siyang reaksyon, talagang nakatingin lang siya sakin. Weirdo.

Linapag ko yung mga braso ko sa desk ko at ipinahinga ang ulo ko dito. Nagsisimula palang araw ko parang gusto ko na pahintuin. I looked at the side at tinignan kung nakatingin parin siya sakin. And yes, he still was.

I looked at the figure of his face. His gray eyes that looked surreal, his jawline was flawless, and amazingly how red his lips are. He smirked at me next. What a nice twist.

"Ms. Croz," I heard a man say.

Dahan-dahan kong tinaas yung ulo ko at tinignan siya and gave a smile.

"If you're not feeling well, you may go to the clinic's office."

Pareho kong tinaas yung kilay ko. "I'd be glad leaving this hell hole," Giit ko na may ngiti. I'm not acting, I'm very glad as fuck.

Tumayo na ako, naramdaman ko yung mga mata ng halos lahat ng kaklase ko nakatingin sakin.

Kinuha ko yung bag ko sa lapag and slang it in my back and started walking, going to the door.

"Ms. Croz, what do you think you're doing?" Binaba ni Sir yung dalawang kamay niya sa teachers table kaya parang merong may kumalampag at tinignan ako ng iritableng mga mata.

"Getting out of the classroom, Sir Alvarez." I muttered. Hindi ko na siya tinignan at naglakad nalang.

"No, stay where you are Ms. Croz or else I'll have to call your parents." He warned.

Naramdaman ko na na-shock yung mga kaklase ko sa sinabi ni Sir. Buti pa yung mga kaklase ko alam yung katotohanan. Then they started whispering.

"Diba ayan yung namatayan ng magulang?"

"Oo siya nga yun."

"Kaya pala ganyan yan yung ugali niyan kasi walang magulang."

"Uy wag kayo ganyan, kawawa na nga eh."

I bowed my head and swallowed the big lump on my throat. Why do they have to be like that? I may be like this but I'm not a bad person.

He didn't say anything after that, he just looked at me and the other students. He looked very shock indeed.

I rolled my eyes at the door and left the classroom at naglakad paalis.
