The Devils' Island

Chapter 6

Pumasok naman ang professor namin, looking so ruggedly dangerous.

"We'll be going to have a quiz, so get some piece of paper, no. 1"

Napailing naman ako dahil sa iyon ang pangbungad sa amin ng Professor.

"The topic is so easy so you won't be having an excuse kung makakakuha kayo ng zero. First part is all about the pythagoras theorem, the soh-cah-toa and all about triangles. You're lucky if you've reach 9th grade already. Pang-grade 9 ang lesson na 'to."

Sambit niya ulit.

"No.1, in 30°-60°-90° right triangle, what would be the hypothenous' length, if the shortest side of the triangle is 3cm long?"

"No. 2, what is the meaning cho-sha-cao?"

"No.3, If tangent has cotangent, what about sine?"

"No.4, give me the formula for the pythagoras theorem?"

"No.5, what would be the hypothenous' length if the two sides of a triangle are 6 cm and 8 cm. Show your solution."

And so on and so forth.

20 items ang first part at mukhang 5 points ito.

"Part two, this is all about sequences, now write all types pf sequences you know, 5 points each."

Napailing nalang ako.

Mukhang hindi uso rito ang discussions and lectures.

"Part three, what is the name of the mathematician who discovered cartesian plane? What about the father of calculus? 10 points each."

"Part four, define what is statistics, probability, mean, mode, median, and frequency. Still 5 points each."

"Part five, evaluate, (x-5)², (x+6)(x-8), (x+2)²,(x-1)(x+1) and (x+9)³. Show your solution."

"Part six, you write all of your answer again, 200 points! Now! I'm giving you 3 minutes only. So hurry!"

Napabuntong-hininga nalang ako saka dinalian ang pagsusulat.

"Pass all your papers! Finished or unfinished! 5, 4, 3, late papers won't be accepted so pass it already! And 1! Let's see what all you've got!"

Sabi nito saka isa-isang tinitingnan ang mga papel namin.

"F*cking sh*t! Is this what you know Cervas? (x+2)² = 2x+4 really?? And what about you Illeos? Who is the father of calculus? Isaac Pythagoras? Kailan pa naging pangalan ni Pythagaros ang Isaac? You also, Wilson! Who is the mathematician who discovered cartesian plane? Julius Cartesian? Really? And what about you, Millan, right sequence, left sequence, upward sequence, are you kidding me!?"

Isa-isa naman niyang itinapon ang mga papel namin hanggang sa napatigil siya.

"We have a newbie here?"

Tanong nito saka iginala ang paningin at tumigil ito sa akin.

"Aliyah Franchesca Suarez Echavez?"

Tumayo naman ako.

"What's the meaning of the cho-sha-cao?"

Tanong niya.

"Cosecant, hypothenous over opposite, secant, hypothenous over adjacent, and cotangent, adjacent over opposite."

Sagot ko kaya napangiti siya.

"Who's the mathematician who discovered cartesian plane?"

"Rene Déscartes"

"(x+9)³?"

"x³+27x²+243x+729"

"State some sequences that you know"

"Arithmetic, Geometric, Harmonic, and Fibonacci"

"What is Probability?"

"Probability is the extent to which something is probable or the likelihood of something to happen or occur."

"Okay. Just a minute"

Sabi niya saka tiningnan uli ang mga sagot ko.

"You've got a perfect score."

Sambit nito saka ako tiningnan at nginisihan.

"But sadly, you're here in section E, the weakest of all section. Such a waste if you're going to spend your time here eh?"

Sabi niya kaya napatawa ako.

"Yeah, it would be a waste of time if you'll continue doing some chitchat with your student."

Sagot ko kaya napahalakhak siya.

"I like you. You've got some brain--All of us do have brains, unless some of the students here are already attacked by some zombies already kaya nawalan na sila ng utak if that's what you are implying for."

Putol ko sa sasabihin niya kaya mas napangisi siya.

"Why are you here Ms. Suarez?"

Tanong niya kaya napaseryoso ako.

"You tell me, Professor."

Sagot ko.

Lumakad naman siya papalapit sa akin.

Shete! I need to act properly!

"A psycho? Aren't you? Cutting some flesh of some innocent people out there? Or a killer who have been so good in killing to the extent that you were praised already by your fellow killers and loathed by the society. Or you're some girl out there who do some evil deeds because you wanted some revenge. Saan ka dun Ms. Suarez?"

Sabi ni Prof kaya napangisi ako.

"I'm none of above Prof. Would you mind if I'm not going to tell you my background? I do love my privacy and I'm trying to be a good girl already, can't you see that?"

Sagot ko kaya napatango-tango naman siya.

"What rank are you?"

Tanong niya kaya tiningnan ko ang wrist ko.

Napataas naman ang kilay ko nang mag-iba na naman ang rank.

"Rank 27, is it normal that my rank keeps on changing?"

Tanong ko kaya napatango naman ito.

"Yes, your rank may change from time to time. It depends on how you act and behave. How many times did it changed already?"

Tanong nito.

"Two"

Sagot ko.

"What are they?"

"12 and 117."

Sambit ko at nakita kong napatigil silang lahat.

Even the professor.

"Does your section had changed already?"

Tumango naman ako.

"Section A."

Sagot ko kaya napataas ang kilay niya.

"Then you are something. But you don't look like a devil, my dear. Codename?"

"Heartless Angel"

Sagot ko kaya napangisi naman siya.

"Such a great codename huh?"

Sambit niya at napatigil nang mag-ring na ang school bell.

"Oh! It's my time to go already. It feels great to have some chitchat with you newbie. Good luck with your stay here then. I hope you'll enjoy."
