Chapter 31: We're so sorry

Chapter 31 |

We're so sorry

I finally cornered them when school ended. Alam ko na yung tatlo ay iniiwasan ako. Eve if they couldn't avoid me, they ignored me. I was used to the ignoring from most people but not to the guys.

Radleigh's route always passed by me when I got fifth period. But I knew he steered clear for me. As soon as he saw me. His brown eyes widening in fear and guilt. Nakakapanibago nga dahil si Radleigh ay kilala bilang kalmado at blanko lang ang mukha. Nagpanic siya hindi malaman ang gagawin. Sinubukan kong makahabol sa kanya para makahingi ng sorry dahil doon sa dinner. Pinaalis ko sila, diba? Pero ibinaba niya ang kanyang hoodie at nakihalo agad sa dami ng studyante. For a popular guy, he can be invisible when he wanted to.

Hindi ako nagpatalo sa kanya. Mahahagilap ko na sana siya despite sa dami ng studyante. Pero papunta na siya sa next class niya. Hindi pa naman siya nakakapasok sa loob ng classroom. Radleigh was quite tall, and even if he hunched, I could still see him a mile away.

Luminga linga ako. Nakita ko si Isaac na nakahilig sa locker. May kausap ito na kavarsity niya rin sa basketball. Tumatawa sila doon. Lumapit ako kay Isaac at nagtanong kung pwedeng mahiram ang bolang hawak niya. Tumango siya at ibinigay agad sa akin.

I watched Radleigh's head as it walked farther and farther away. Sinukat ko ang distance, estimating and doing some other nerd stuff. Pero hindi ako nerd! Then, with the ball in my hand. Inangat ko ang braso ko at ibinato ang bola. Halos lahat ng nasa hallway ay napatigil. Napatigil sa paglalakad, sa pakikipagusap at sa pag kain. Everyone's eyes, Isaac's eyes, my eyes followed the ball as if flew into the air to hit Radleigh at the back of his head. Narinig ko agad ang sigaw niya doon.

Napasuntok ako sa ere. Narinig ko rin ang palakpakan at mga pag sipol sa pagbato kong iyon. I did a short bow then went on my way to fifth period.

Colleen was the stupidest when trying to ignore me. Instead he was just his idiot self. The first few minutes of class he ignored me. Nakatitig lang siya sa bintana, minsan sumisipol lang, minsan nagpapanggap na parang nakikinig talaga sa lecture. But when we were forced to do the experiment for classwork, he did everything for me, just to avoid conversation.

Pero isa lang ang maipapayo ko sa inyo. Never let Colleen do a experiment for you. I tried to correct him, help him out, but he refused my help, determind not to talk to me. And it ended up, he made a small explosion.

And last but least there was Yeshua. Given we also had the same P.E class with Ms. Narzabal, it was already hard enough for him to ignore me, just like Colleen. Magpartner kami sa basketball practice. When Yeshua and I won the first round. Nagpahinga muna kami.

The key to basketball besides skill and good plays is the team itself. You need a good teamwork to win a game. You have to learn how to communicate with them, work together, pass the ball, and not get mad at them but encourage them to get better. Yeshua's idea of ignoring me is pretty much not communicating me at all. Napaka damot niya sa bola. Hindi niya manlang sakin ipinapasa ngayon kahit isang beses!

Hanggang sa ang kabilang team ay nacorner na siya. I don't doubt Yeshua's basketball skills, but no one should be able to hold on the ball that long with no help from your partner. But nevertheless, he did it.

Wala akong nagawa. Naging useless ako sa team! Because of him. Dahil hindi niya talaga sakin ipinapasa ang bola. Siya lang ang nag shoot at nag dribble. Pero kahit ganoon ay ang team naming dalawa naman ang nanalo. Nang matapos na ang laro. In revenge, I did the obvious thing. Sinipa ko ang bola, juggled with it a few times, and then kicked it at Yeshua's head. The headshot took Yeshua by surprise. Knocking him off his feet and landing on his back on the court. I walked towards him, looked at his dazed expression, literally not knowing what hit him.
