Breaking Me Again.

Chapter 2 : First encounter

---

Why would Prix do such thing?. It was unexpected because I was becoming okay. What kind of game is he pulling out this time? I was walking alone inside the campus and tried searching for Mr. Lopez. Nag react pa naman din siya sa post. The heaviness inside my heart was starting to lift. It still stings, you know? I guess, I didn't really understand the way he thinks. Matagal na din namang naputol yung connections naming dalawa.

Nakakahiya all throughout. Nakakasira ng dignidad. Major effect, to be exact. I can't help but think about it. Ayan, sira na talaga yung araw ko. Napabilib din ako sa ginawa niya. Grabe noh?

''Uy Aiks, trending yung post ni Prix sa facebook. Daming likes. I even shared it and put it on my wall.'' I looked at her as if she was out of her mind. Okay, I don't even know her. Tapos kung maka approach naman itong si ate girl, akala mo talaga may pinagsamahan kami.

At dahil dun, bunch of people added me on facebook. Huwag silang ano. Nasa following lang sila.

''Ate girl, pwede paki report nung post?'' Hindi ko siya kilala pero I need to do this kasi Prix didn't even bother to removed it. Inaalala ko lang naman kasi yung lame reasons na nakasulat doon. Saan kaya siya nakakuha ng lakas ng loob na i-share yun sa public?

''Huwag na Aiks, ayaw mo ba nyan? Famous kana. For all I know na you have 5 followers tas ngayon naging 5k na'' kitid din ng utak eh. Mabubuhay ba ako dahil sa 5k na yan? Mababayaran ba nila tuition ko? Mababalik ba nito ang nakaraan ko?

''Tsss'' iniwan ko na siya. She even insisted herself to me na i mention name niya sa comment box to gain followers. Wala na bang mabuting araw para sa akin?

''You've got to be kidding, Aiks'' Ou, nakausap ko na si Mr. Lopez. He just gave me punishment. But still I had three absences.

''Ou nga, terminated ako for almost 5 weeks'' I said disbelievingly.

Makakauwi na ako ng maaga kasi di ako makakasali sa club ko. Of all na pwedeng e-punish sa akin. Ito pa talaga. This club, gave me so much to remember. 5 weeks is so damn long. Naging busy ako dahil sa club na'to. I even moved on from things because I had with me my club and the people. I did this to myself, but it didn't do me any good at all.

''You should've been suggested other consequences'' sabi ni Jem na mukhang concern din sa sitwasyon ko.

''But I've got nonsense reasons kung ba't ako absent, he even read my excuse letter infront of his class and that was not funny'' I protested.

Yeah, pinahiya niya ako sa buong klase. Everything goes as expected.

No, scratch that! Pinahiya niya ako sa harap ng Business minded students. Yeah, BSBA ang kinuha kong course. Kahit malayo sa arts, kailangang maging practical sa buhay. Sabi kasi ng parents ko mas makabuluhan pag parte ako sa isang business industry. Kaya binabawi ko na lang lahat sa arts club. Saklap, pati yun mawawala panandalian.

''Si-net as example ni sir yung letter mo sa class kanina girl'' sige tumawa kapa Kiwi. Araw mo ngayon.

Ou, mahilig maki sit-in si Kiwi. Morning class kasi siya kaya tambay siya sa room namin after ng class niya. Naiinggit nga ako sa kanya kasi nakukuha niya lahat ng gusto niya sa buhay. Isang fine arts student ang kaibigan kong yan.

And I just don't find it relaxing pag nasa school ako, lalo na ngayon. Tumataas blood pressure ko. I couldn't just ignore it.

I looked at them seriously.
''Okay, uwi na muna ako. Not in the mood to attend classes pa'' tutal I've got my punishment naman and nothing I could do with it. I finally had a reason to skip school.
