“Bff, wake up ka na!” Damn! Aga aga ingay ingay naman ng mga to. Kitang natutulog pa yung tao. Kinapkap ko yung phone ko under my pillow tas nag earphone. Bahala sila, antok pa ako. Tinalukbong ko ang kumot at matutulog sana ulit ng....
Boogshhhh....
“Mariella Chiva Beaux! I’ll bury you to the depths of hell!” hilahin ba naman ako pababa ng kama ko. That bitch of a friend. Nanlilisik na ang mata ko sa inis siya naman naka smirk lang. Nangiinis much ang peg early in the morning.
“I’ve been waking you up for an hour na you won’t make bangon. Yan tuloy hinila na lang kita. Diba effective?” naka pout pa siya. Ganda ng bff ko noh. Hilahin ka ba naman pababa na kama tingnan natin di ka magkabukol.
“Humanda ka sa akin pag nagkabukol ako mamaya Ella. Sana hinayaan mo na lang ako.” Nakatayo na ako ngayon hawak yung mga gagamitin ko sa morning rituals ko. Kung di ko lang mahal tong babaeng to matagal ko na tong itinakwil. Masyado kasing makulit.
“It’s the casting day kaya, everyone should be there.” She looked at me na parang di makapaniwalang nakalimutan ko ang activity today.
“Shit” i cussed at dali dali ng pumasok sa banyo.
5 minutes lang ata tapos na ako. Paano ba naman 20 minutes na lang bago yung casting.
Yung casting pala ay ang pag iidentify kung saang class mabebelong ang isang studyante. Nahahati sa apat ang classification ng students dito.
The Gods
The Royals
The Warriors
The Workers
Mamaya ko na iexplain kung ano ano yung mga yun. I need to fix myself first hah. Mahirap kasi baka sa kadadaldal ko makalimutan kong magbihis. Di ako sanay mag muliti task ee.
I am done preparing myself and happy with my reflection when I heard someone knock. I can see Ella’s reflection on the mirror; sitting comfortably on the couch, with legs crossed while checking her nails and banging her head while listening music in her phone.
“Come in” I ain’t need to ask who’s outside to know kung sino yun.
Yes, it’s Franz.Iba kasi yung room niya. Sayang nga at kami magkasamang tatlo. Good for two lang kasi ang bawat rooms sa dorm.
“Ready?” lapad ng smile niya aa. Inspired lang?
“Yup” I flip my hair and laugh with her. Yung isa naman. Wala lang dead ma. Nagiging bingi kasi siya pag naka earphone na.
I tap her shoulders pero wala pa ding effect. Deadma lang. Akala ko bingi manhid din pala? Tinapik ko ulit yung shoulders niya. Wala pa din.
Ayaw talaga hah. Hinablot ko yung earphone niya then crossed my arms in front.
“What – sasabat pa sana siya nang tinuro ko ang orasan.
“Holy cow!” magkapanabay naming cussed. Paano ba naman 5 minutes na lang before casting. Nasa kabilang wing pa yung venue.
Shit really happens.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Casting Venue
Muntik na kaming malate. Wanna know how we did it? Well secret na namin. Oh sige sasabihin ki na. Gumamit kami ng powers namin at sana walang nakakita sa amin.
"Where are we going to sit?" Franz asked. I looked around and saw 3 vacant chairs. "Dun tayo" turo ko sa vacant chairs.
Habang papunta kami sa aming uupuan di ko malaman kung anong problema nila at grabe makatingin sa amin. Is there something wrong with our us? I didn't mind them at umupo na.
I heard someone gasped but I didn't bother to know the reason. Yung dalawa ko namang kasama, wala ding pakialam sa mundo.
Si Elle na nakasaksak pa din yung earphone at nag sosoundtrip at si Franz naman na busy sa kakalikot ng ipad niya. Trending kasi siya lagi sa social sites ee.
Kala ko ba on time ang start ng mga activity sa school na to? Di naman pala. I was about to close my eyes out of boredom when i hear someone clear her throat. When I check who was it I saw a girl. Same age as me at mejo mataray. No mataray siya. Nakataas pa kilay niya habang naka tingin sa akin.
"Yes?" I asked na medyo may attitude din. Problena ba nito.
"You and your fugly's are sitting in our chairs." she said. Kapal naman niyang sabihan kaming fugly's. I smiled at her and taunt "But there's no name on it. So how can you say that it belongs to you and you're exotic friends? So just look for another chair because we took these seats first." kala siguro papatalo ako.
She looked at me with disbelief. "You don't know who you're messing with bitch!"
"Yeah! And I'm not interested in knowing you." Tsk. Sino ba siya sa tingin niya para kilalanin ko. I don't give a shit about her ugly face and her friends.
She was about to hit me when I heard someone said "Casting is about to start. Why are you not seated Aileena?" i can feel authority on his voice. He's cold stare is stuck on her. I can sense that she's starting to shake.
"Blame that girl Aiden, she stole our chairs." she said after she composed herself and point her finger at me. The nerve! We got here first and she's telling him that we stole her chair? She doesn't own the chair. It's school's property. I just rolled my eyes and ignored her.
"You don't own those chairs Aileena, and you better find seats or else you'll get punished. The ceremony is about to start." I'm so happy that he didn't believe her. I smirked and sit properly. Nakita kong nagdadabog ang Aileena na yun kasama ng mga alagad niya at naghanap ng mauupuan.
"Go with your friends to the SCC office after casting Miss Mason." i heard him say. Don't tell me alam niyang gumamit kami ng powers kanina? I just nod. It's our fault naman kaya we need to face the consequence. Then he took his leave.
"Bff, di pa ba magsisimula?" tanong ni Ella sabay sundot sa cheeks ko. Parang bata talaga to noh. I was about to answer her when everyone stop talking and an eeire of silence field the room. I saw tito Thomas walked towards the stage with a sophisticated woman beside him. You can sense authority just by looking at them. I was shocked when i finally realized who is the woman beside tito. "Aunt Alicia?" i uttered in a low voice.
"Tama ba ang nakikita ko?!" magkapanabay na tanong nina Franz and Ella sa akin. I was speechless. Wala akong masabi. Blanko. "Shhhh, hinaan niyo mga boses niyo. I don't have any idea about this." wala naman talaga akong alam kaya wala akong masasabi sa kanila.
