The Bastard I Hate

Chapter One

I'm Thedreis Leauria 'Drei' Sebastian. Maraming nagsasabi na weird and spelling ng pangalan ko. Sang-ayon ako lalo na kung pinahirap-hirapan pa ang spelling samantalang Didrey Luria lang naman ang tamang pagbigkas.

You could blame my father about it, and my mom for tolerating him.

I'm 20 years old. Third year college. Architecture student. East Fairsleigh University. Si Mama ang sumusuporta sa pag- aaral ko. OFW siya sa London, nurse. Si Papa ang kasama ko sa bahay. Namamasada siya ng F/X na isa sa mga naipundar ni Mama.

So hindi kami mahirap at mas lalong hindi kami mayaman. Nandon kami sa normal na estado sa buhay.

At ang kwentong ito ay kung paanong nagulo ang dapat ay normal na buhay ko sa eskwela.

I have two true friend in school. Keith, my super gay friend, in the noun and adjective meaning of gay. And Cory, my super naughty, and noisy but lovable girl friend.

And this is what you called, the greatest encounter.

"OMG! Look who' s coming," puno ng kilig and boses ni Cory. Nasa study table silang tatlo, may tinatapos silang plate.

At kapag nagkakaganoon na si Cory ay mas lalo niya iyong hindi pinapansin. So hindi niya nga iyon pinansin.

"Shit, ang pogi niya! Dito ba siya papunta?" It was Keith. At kapag dalawa na ang mga 'to na namamatay sa kilig, she pretends that she's deaf. That is somehow effective.

' Konti na lang matatapos na 'tong plate... Konting tyaga na lang Drei,'

'Bakit ba kasi parang ang komplikado nung sukat ng ginawa ko? Tama naman yung calculation ko,'

"Hoy! Kinakausap kita, bingi ka ba?!"

That caught her attention. She lifts her gaze. Then her heart beats triple time. Maybe because of the eyes, or his gaze, or the intimate way he stares. Napalunok siya. He is the CE Bastard.

'How did he approached me?!'

She raised her right brow and narrow her eyes.

"Excuse me?" pagtataray niya. ' Why the fuck my heart is racing to the tenth power! Argh!'

"I'm talking to you. You're Thedreis?" magaspang na sagot nito.

"And if it's me?" taas noong kompronta niya dito.

Napansin niyang tahimik lang ang mga kaibigan niya. At napakarami ng ususero sa paligid nila. Kasama nito ang mga bataan nito.

" Okay, College of Architecture and Design, From now on, this lady here, who is unbelievebly deaf, is my new Ace," pagdi-deklara nito.

Napatayo lang siya sa kinatatayuan niya. She was dumbfounded. Ace.

It was Spade Anthony Fairsleigh. He owns the school. He set the rules. They call him CE Bastard because of his rakishness. CE because he's a Civil Engineering student. And if he declares that you're his Ace, you're dead. Anyone can trip on you and you' ll have his protection. It's like a blacklist of who's the next mafian traitor that needs to be wiped out.

"Oh no," alalang saad ni Cory.

Of course, that's a very very 'oh no.' Una, dahil hindi na magiging normal ang buhay niya. Ang madalas na sagot ng mga estudyante kapag naging ace sila ay ang mag transfer ng school. Pero siya ay hindi pwede dahil may scholarship siya. Malapit ang Fairsleigh sa bahay nila. At higit sa lahat, hindi siya basta basta sumusuko o natitinag sa mga kalokohan ng isang batang papansin at walang magawa sa buhay, lalo na't ka-edad lang naman niya. That's bullshit.
