Freedom from Seduction (COMPLETED)

Kabanata 8

Jealousy

It turns out, when you do bad things, the result will be bad for you. Serena ended up being Zeus' co-worker after my sabotage. She's lucky, really. I mean, who ever passes a Calliego's rage? I was not too hard on her, that's for sure! I can't believe she passed out! She should have said stupid things before it! But she was too quiet!

I bumped my head on the desk continuously. Bumalik na naman ang klase at kanina pa ako naiirita. My guy friends never went to canteen to eat with me. Iyon ang madalas naming ginagawa. What has changed?

"You look stupid." Claire, one of the school's bitches, interrupted my shallow thoughts.

Agad akong tumingin sakanya. Well, atleast I have her. That goodie-goodie can't be with Claire because she's too 'good'. I, on the other hand, is forced to be with her because we're the only girls in this university that actually clique.

What can I say? Birds with the same feathers really do flock together sometimes. Well, I can't say that I'm a boy for having too much guy friends and being one of them. We don't have the same feather, eew. Mine is more grand with diamonds and crystals on it. I don't settle for abstract designs and colors. Eew, that's too plain. Everything has to be perfect. Everything has to be grand.

"I'm irritated. I ate lunch alone."

She immediately shifted her weight to another part of the chair to face me fully. Her wicked smile turned wider when she shrieked.

"Ho-ho, look at that! Aphro Calliego is friendless! This is going in my blog." She smirked.

I rolled my eyes and let her do the things she wants. No one can really stop her just like how no one can stop me.

"I'm not friendless though. Try something that wouldn't look fraudulent, Claire. Some people still thinks your blog is reliable." I sneered.

Her mouth gaped and she immediately slapped my arm.

"How rude! The informations I post are reliable and they're truer that that girl's Louis Vuitton bag!"

I shrugged and smiled fakely.

"At least it's as fake as my smile right now."

Umirap rin siya sa akin bago isinandal ang ulo sa kamay na nakapatong sa desk niya.

"But seriously, you're friendless? No more irritation guy friends? I heard someone's stealing them from you."

Agad nanagpantig ang tainga ko sa narinig. My whole attention went to her that it made her chuckle loudly.

"What are you talking about?"

"I really thought you weren't friendless. I mean all I saw was Xyl and Jatmel hanging out with the girl." She laughed. "I thought the two chose you but I guess they just had to grab a snack and ditch you, huh?"

"Stop irritating me. The school just started so go and drop the girl's name before I make you kiss the floor."

Umirap ulit siya ngunit hindi niya iyon pinansin. The least thing I want right now is a fight with her.

"I heard the girl's from another class but she also took Performing Arts. Hmm. I think we're classmates."

She continued irritating me. I was too busy thinking of a name that suits her description that I didn't mind some of her thoughtless interventions.

"Serena Gomez? Right. That girl's got some real talent. Can you believe it? I actually liked a voice rather than yours!" She laughed. "But still, she's ugly and too good for me. I won't see her in hell so yeah, better not get attached with her."
