What Lies Beneath Me

First day

Chapter 10

Megan's POV

Ala sais ng umaga ng magising ako. I went straight to the kitchen to cook some Tocino and Eggs for breakfast. Kumuha ako ng bigas sa rice dispenser at hinugasan ito pagkatapos ay nilagay ko na sa rice cooker. I doubled check my schedule for today, Alas otso pa naman ang klase ko. When everything is done, I prepared the dining table along with my hot chocolate.

I was in the middle of eating when my phone rang, agad akong tumayo sa mesa na nasanggi ko pa ang aking kutsara at nahulog sa sahig.

Tita Gale is calling..

"Hmm tita" ngumunguya pa ako ng sagutin ko ang tawag.

"Goodmorning anak! anong kinakain mo? buti naman at naisipan mong mag almusal bago pumuntang school" kinuha ko yung hot chocolate ko at ininom ito.

"Oo nga po eh, nag Tocino at itlog lang ako for breakfast" 

"Dinner time na dito, nag alarm talaga ako na tawagan ka alam mo namang 12 hours ang time difference natin. Bilisan mo ang kilos ha at baka ma late ka mabuti na lang at 20 minutes drive ka lang to your school. Oh siya sige na pauwi na ako from work mag message ka sakin maya ah kwentuhan mo ko anong nangyari sa araw mo" sumaglit ako ng tingin sa wall clock at 6:45 pa naman.

"I will tita thank you po sa pagtawag" pagkatapos ng tawag ay inubos ko na ang pagkain ko at dumiretso na sa banyo para maligo, blinow dry ko rin ang basang buhok ko at kinulot ang dulo. It's my go to hairstyle. I'll be going for a White turtle neck blouse and Red skirt partnered with my Black ankle boots. Hindi ko nakalimutang i-sout ang White Gold necklace na binigay sakin ni mommy. 

I'm confident not putting on some makeup, I have no visible pores and the little freckles on my cheeks really made me beautiful. I have a natural bushy eyebrows so I just pluck it to get it on fleek, nag lagay ako ng liptint sa pinsgi at labi ko and that's it.

Kinuha ko na ang bag at susi ng kotse at sinarado ang unit ko. It took me less than 20 minutes to arrive.

WOW THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING!

Nag park na ako at naglakad patungo sa Admission's office, hindi naman ako nawala dahil may mga signs around the campus. I can't help but to appreciate how elegant this school looks! And I only have a year to enjoy its good facilities.

"Hi I'm Princess Megan Bernardino. I'm a transferee and I was instructed in the email to go here before going to my class " sabi ko sa babae na nasa window.

"Yes for awhile please" I roamed my eyes in the lobby, there's a lot of different kinds of student trying to find their way to class.

"Ms. Bernardino here's your printed schedule incase you haven't had it printed out, also the school map. Here's your handbook and since you are a Marketing student all your classes is at the Business and Management Department Building you can see your map for directions" I said my thanks and immediately find my room for my first class.

there! Room 405

Pumasok na ako at naghanap ng bakanteng upuan. Wala pa ang professor at naupo na ako sa bandang harapan

ang lamig naman ng aircon! 

Napatingin ako sa lalaking umupo sa tabi ko.

"Staring is rude" napataas ang kilay ko sa sinabi niya.

"Looking and staring is a different thing" mataray na sagot ko, hindi naman siya sumagot. Lumipad ang print out ng schedule ko kaya tumayo ako at pinulot yun sa sahig. Napatingin ako sa lalaking katabi ko at nahuli ko siyang hinead to foot niya ako.

"Stop checking me out" sabi ko habang ini-ipit ko ang print out sa binder ko.

"Excuse me? hindi babae ang gusto ko" napalingon naman ako agad.

"You gay?!" 

"Sa eyelash extension ko nato, sa tingin mo lalaki ako?" tiningnan ko ang mata niya

naka-extensions nga..

"Bakit ka kasi nagboboses lalaki" iling ko.

"Pinagtitripan ka lang" tawa niya, I chuckled too.

"Infairness ha, ang ganda mo" he complimented.

"I know" then I flipped my hair. Ang gaan ng loob ko sakanya I'm glad he's going to be my seatmate. 

"Gabriel Mendoza" while handing out his hand.

"Megan Bernardino" I said. Maya maya lang ay dumating na ang Professor at sinimulan na ang klase pero less than an hour ay natapos na rin kami. Orientation pa lang kasi. Gab and I compared our schedule, almost everything is the same except for the last class.

Classes went so fast and it's Lunch time. We decided to eat inside the restaurant around the campus. Sabay na kaming nag order ni Gab at umupo na rin pagkatapos. Nakatingin ako sa labas ng makita ko si Misha.

"Wait here Gab, I saw my friend" tumango lang siya. Nagmadali akong lumabas at hinabol si Misha.

"Mish!" I walked slow nung nahabol ko na siya.

"You weren't answering my calls Meg" kinuha ko ang phone ko sa bulsa.

4 missed calls

"Sorry" I finger combed my hair and put back my phone in my pocket.

"Bonding tayo after class? you free?" she asked.

Wala pa namang homeworks

"Sure I'll be done by 2PM, text me"

"Great! I'll go ahead I'm late for my next class!" bineso niya ako at umalis na agad siya. Bumalik na ako sa loob ng restaurant at dumating na pala yung pagkain namin. Nag-uusap kami ni Gab ng napatingin ako sa taong kakapasok lang sa restaurant.
