Chapter Four: In Denial

"So sinasabi mong sinusundan ka niya?"sinamaan ko ng tingin si Gryka. Kanina ko pa siya pinapatahimik dahil madaming tao dito sa karenderya at baka marinig pa siya. She leaned backward and gave me an okay look. Mabuti naman at tumahimik na siya.

"Yes"pabulong kong sagot.

"Why would he do that?" Tanong naman ni Zyris at uminom ng tubig.

Nagkibi't balikat lang ako. Uminom naman ng tubig si Gryka pero nanatili ang makahulugang tingin niya sa akin.

"Georgina ha, baka ano na yan"may pagbabanta ang boses niya.

"No, please, nasagot ko na kayo. Tama na"nagkibi't-balikat naman sila at sa wakas ay tumahimik na.

I never really wanted to talk about it in the first place, sila lang yung nagtanong kung ano ang nangyari matapos nilang umalis. Well yeah!, Kung di na lang sana nila ako iniwan ay malalaman nila or more like, hindi iyon mangyayari.

But gosh! Ano bang nangyayari?,

"Well I printed some of the topics and things we will be reviewing. So ang una kong ibibigay ay ang 2 kinds of cells and its parts. Na-lecture na ito sa inyo di'ba?" I said as I gave them the copies. Nandito kami ngayon sa Clinic, kasi malaki ang space at tahimik so hindi kami magagambala. Divided kasi siya, ang other part ng clinic is the beds and the meds while the other part is the table where the teacher assigned sits and also the other meds and other things important in the clinic.

"Yes maam"sabi naman ng dalawang contestants. Jean, the president of the 7 Red is on the Quiz Bee while Janice the secretary of the 7 Red is on the Quiz Bowl.

"Okay so in this page are the 2 kinds of cell, the..."I paused for them to answer.

"Animal Cell"sagot ni Jean nung ituro ko ang cell na may pagka-bilog.

"And....."

"Plant Cell"sagot naman ni Janice nang ituro ko ang cell na may pagka-rectangle in shape.

"Very good. Actually alam kong na tackle na ni Sir niyo ang topic na to, itong kinds of cell, pero ni-refresh ko lang para sa inyo"nginitian ko silang dalawa.

Our review went on, from the kinds of cell to its parts at ang mga corresponding meaning of the parts.

The kids are good. Very good. Nalaman kong si Jean ang first honors or more like siya yung nangunguna at nasa pangalawa naman si Janice.

Madali silang maka-gets sa mga inaaral ko sa kanila, madali nilang naiintindihan ang mga iyon.

I heard they are also Math Wizards, hindi mahihirapan si Nico sa kanila pagdating sa pag-compute sa concentrations.

I took a glance at them, may pinapasagutan ako sa kanila, it was a question I made about Biology. I smiled, I can remember myself from them. I used to join contests, and yeah, this one too. I am on Quiz Bee that time, I had reviews with my coach, I won contests but not all the time.  Cause that is life, sometimes you win sometimes you lose, sometimes you're up sometimes you're down, but the most important thing is you shouldn't give up. Cause that is what should be done for you to survive, for you to live.

I enjoyed teaching them, I enjoyed giving them techniques...

"For you Jean, dahil Quiz ka, may time limit kayo niyan, it could be 1 hour lang ang pagsagot niyo or more or it could also be less, but always put this technique in your mind na kapag mahirap yang item o number na iyan, skip it, go for the easier ones at kapag tapos ka na sa mga madali, go back to the hard ones and answer them. One technique para naman hindi masyang ang oras mo, baka magtagal ka sa isang item na di ka sure at maging mali ka pa"nginitian ko siya. Tumango naman siya at ngumiti.
