My Lovely Delinquent

chap.2 "Nerd"

"Sabrina..."

"Hmm."

I groggily lifted my head from my desk, rubbing my eyes to shake off the remnants of sleep. My squinted gaze landed on the culprits who dared interrupt my nap.

Abby and Kim.

I scowled. "Ano ba yan?! Kitang-kita niyo namang natutulog ako!"

Did I mention how Abby's voice could rival a megaphone? Compared to her, my voice was just the microphone—powerful, but nowhere near as deafening.

"Hoy, babaita! Recess na, kaya gumising ka na!" Abby announced with a smirk.

Before I could process her words, she casually perched on my desk while Kim slid into the transferee's seat. Speaking of the transferee, he was gone. Must've stepped out already.

I stretched and yawned, standing up to glance around the room. Most of the class had already left, probably storming the cafeteria.

"Sakto! I'm fvcking starving," I muttered as my stomach rumbled on cue.

Kim shot me a look and tugged at my arm. "Halika nga! May dapat kang iexplain sa amin."

"Huh? Ano na naman 'yan?" I asked, genuinely confused as Abby grabbed my other arm and they both dragged me out of the room.

"Basta, may kasalanan ka," Kim said cryptically.

What?! Kasalanan? Anong pinaglalaban ng mga 'to?

By the time we reached the cafeteria and found an empty table, I still had no clue what they were going on about. "Ano ba kasi yun?" I pressed again as we sat down.

They ignored me completely.

Instead, they both stood and headed for the counter to order food, leaving me alone at the table. I rested my chin on my hand, watching them with narrowed eyes. Weirdos. Ano kayang problema ng mga 'to? At least bibilhan siguro nila ako. Alam naman nila gusto ko eh.

A few minutes later, they returned with trays loaded with food. I straightened up, ready to dig in, only to realize—

"Where's mine?" I asked, frowning as they set their trays down. Not a single item for me?!

Abby snorted. "Bumili ka ng sayo!" She stuck out her tongue at me before diving into her meal.

"What the—?! Hindi niyo ko binilhan?!"

Abby hissed in mock irritation, "Ano ka, prinsesa?!"

"Ano ba kasing kasalanan ko sa inyo?!" I ruffled my hair in frustration, not caring that it messed up my ponytail. Hunger does that to you.

They exchanged a knowing look before turning back to me, clearly enjoying my torment.

"Tss. Isipin mo," Abby said with a dramatic eye roll.

Isipin? Eh nakatulog lang naman ako buong oras! How could I possibly have committed a crime while half-asleep?!

"I swear, wala akong maalala!"

"Eh 'di bahala ka," Kim said nonchalantly, taking a big bite of her burger.

"Sabihin niyo na kasi!"

"Isipin mo nga!" Abby snapped again, her tone both teasing and dead serious.

My jaw clenched. Gutom na gutom na ako! Kung hindi ko lang sila kaibigan, baka pinagtulung-tulungan ko na ang pagkain nila.

"Gutom na talaga akooo!!" halos magmakaawa na ako sa dalawa. Gusto ko mang mag-order sa counter, hindi ko magawa dahil sobrang daming nakapila. Ano ba 'to, fiesta?
