Somewhere over the rainbow

" knowing her"

Seans' POV

It was my first day here in Mariana International school. It was strange because i dont know any of these people. Visually its a huge school to consider a square type campus where 2 sides are facing each other and a stage in the middle facing the gate. It has an atm machine outside the gate and it separates a man and woman entrance and i was like "wow amazing". And of course i came from a small private school where in usually all students knows each other so this new environment is strange for me right now and i feel amazing and sometimes failure did the best part in my life because if i dont fail I guesse im not standing in this big school haha.

*a little throwback *

Three days from now will be my graduation day and were here at the bulletin board waiting for the list of honorees

Registrars officer: okay guys! Excuse!excuse let me pass the way.

My heart beats doubled or even thrice of my normal heartbeat and suddenly

Registrars officer:okay congratulations everyone.

And upon seeing and finding my name on the list of course i looked up to a higher part because im a consistent 1.3 student and have a highest honor for the past quarters im confident that i graduate as highest honoree. But sadly i didn't make it. I was in tears looking up to my name at the bottom in the list of with honors. Its a freaking situation right. So i came to my subject advisers and

Teacher:Im sorry Sean but your performance in my subject is low for the past quarters

Me: why ma'am?i did my job,i did everything to pass my requirements on time,my quizes and projects but why.

Teacher: i know you are aware that in the last performace on swimming you are not able to make it. You cant master any strokes and even the floating. And it was 50% of your grade and i have nothing to do it. Because your classmates did very well so its unfair if i consider you pass though you are not.

Me: but ma'am p.e is the only subject who pulled me down

Teacher:im sorry but im just doing my job. I have nothing to do it. Maybe you can do better next time.

I feel down,exhausted. Can't imagine that p.e only p.e who will ruin my whole life. I fail my self,my family and of couse my grandparents who has a trust on me. My parents even fight for my grades and still did nothing ablut it. Yes! I attend ny graduation rights but not even looking or handshaking to my teachers. I know it was wrong but ifeel betrayed. The moment i leave that school i dont even care to go back or walk to their ground. How i maybe able to go back to the place who once tried to take my life. For i cried the whole summer,sink myself in the darkness,fill my room with books and lonely songs. I even hospitalized for health failure. So mom and dad decided to send me to Mandaluyong to study to stay away from Davao and to regain my life.

*end of flashback*

As i walk through the alley reading for my schedule hindi ko man lang napansin that there are group of students who suddenly encircled me and start singing and acting

Group of students:

Song by Loren Allred

🎶I'm trying to hold my breath
Let it stay this way
Can't let this moment end
You set off a dream in me
Getting louder now
Can you hear it echoing?
Take my hand
Will you share this with me?
'Cause darling without you🎶

Another woman:
🎶All the shine of a thousand spotlights
All the stars we steal from the nightsky
Will never be enough
Never be enough
Towers of gold are still too little
These hands could hold the world but it'll
Never be enough
Never be enough🎶
