Keith Dayne's POV
It's exactly 7:30AM when I got here in School.
"Manong, magtetext nalang po ako kung magpapasundo po ako." I told Manong Jun, our driver before I get off at the car.
"Okay po, Ms. Kei." he said and leave
I'm peacefully walking way on our building when my phone rang.
"Kei, nasan ka? Nasa cafeteria ako, punta ka muna dito." Margau said and ended the call immediately.
"Wait, what?! We're already late!"
*toot* *toot*
Anong oras na pero nakatambay parin sya sa Cafeteria? What kind of student she is? It's our first day but we're effin' late! But here I am, I found myself going to the cafeteria, mygoodness Marg!
I was wandering the cafeteria to find Marg and suddenly heard her voice calling me.
"Kei! KEI!"
I immediately look at her direction and realized she is with her boyfriend and his friends.
"Marg? We're late! What are you still doing here? Let's go!" Sabi ko habang hinihila yung kamay nya.
"Basically, we're late if we really have classes. But apparently, we don't, so chill. Upo ka muna kaya?" She said while smiling.
"What? Bakit daw?" I'm starting to get pissed. I took a shower for less than 20 minutes that should be more than half an hour knowing i'm already late then what? NO EFFIN CLASSES!?!
"Unfortunately, our prof is the coach of our basketball team and they need to practice because the tournament will be held in the next 2 months, and so, the faculty members are still discusing kung sino ang ipapalit kay Sir Rod, since it's 3hrs laboratory, we have 3hrs vacant bale 4 hrs and 30 minutes tayong vacant because after nung Laboratory natin ay yung Lunch break natin. Gets?" Mahaba nyang paliwanag.
"What?! You didn't even bother to tell me sooner? If they'll practice what's your boyfriend still doing here? Aren't he part of the team anymore?" Sunod sunod kong tanong. "By the way, hi Eric! :)" Sabi ko sa boyfriend ng bestie ko. "And oh, his friends what are they still doing here also?" Tanong ko ulit.
Yes, my bestie's boyfriend including his friends are varsity players.
"I did, i texted you and i guess you're on your way here when you received it, nalaman ko lang din kani-kanina lang. They said the announcement while waiting at our room a while ago." Depensa nya. "They're here because we're waiting for you bes! Hihi." Palambing nyang sabi.
Bes??? Say what? Halatang may kailangan to eh.
"What do you need? Wag mo nako i-bes!" Pabiro kong sabi.
"Hm, eh, can we watch their practice?" Turo nya sa mga kasama namin. "Please? While waiting for our next subject? Please?"
Sabi ko na nga ba, may kailangan to eh!
"Oka-, WHAT?! NO WAY!! I'm not going! It's better to get home than to watch that game practice!! I'm going. Let's see each other again later." Sabi ko at dali-daling tumayo.
She can ask everything or anything but not that one. I can't give it to her unless I don't have a choice. Wanna know why? You'll know very soon.
"Wait! Wala akong kasama manood!" Pagpigil nya sakin bago ako makalabas ng cafeteria. "KEI!!! WAIT!!" Di ko na sya pinakinggan at lumabas na sa Cafeteria.
I hurriedly go to the parking lot and call Manong Jun para magpasundo.
Manong bakit di kaba sumasagot???? Please answer! I looked at my wrist watch and it's 8:00 maybe he's at the grocery store together with Yaya Anne that's why he can't pick up my calls. Aish! What i'm gonna do? I can't watch the game! Can I stay at the cafeteria for 4hours? I guess no, mukha akong kawawa at tanga dun! Where should I go?
Omg, library! Hahahaha
I run faster as much as I could to go to our Library. And to my disappointment, it opens 9:30am! I'm not gonna watch the practice! I'm not! But there, I found myself walking through our Gymnasium and looking for my Bestie.
"Kei? KEI!!!" Yes, you heard it. It's my bestie.
"Akala ko ba hindi ka manonood? Hahaha! Sabi ko na di moko matitiis eh." Natutuwang sabi nya nang makaupo ako sa tabi nya. "Wait, ako ba yung di mo matiis o sya?" Nang-aasar na sabi nya sabay turo sa nakatalikod samin whose wearing the Jersey PANGILINAN.
"Stop it!" Bulyaw ko sakanya. I rolled my eyes on her.
