My eyes opened when I felt a cold breeze embracing my whole body and soul. The first thing I saw was white.

Nakailang kurap ako bago napagpasiyahang bumangon. Kahit na mabigat pa ang ulo, sinubukan ko pa ring umupo sa aking hinihigian. Umikot saglit ang mundo ko kaya napapikit akong muli at napahawak sa ulo ko. Nang umayos ang pakiramdam ko, nilibot ko ang aking paningin.

Kung tutuusin, maliit lang ang clinic na ito. The entire room was painted white, with a hospital bed where I sat, and two stacked black monoblock chairs on the side of the bed. At the other end, there was a desk with a swivel chair, and next to it, a bookshelf filled with old logbooks and other books about medicine.

If I am not mistaken, I am in the clinic of a school. But... How?

I just noticed now that I’m wearing different clothes. I'm wearing a P.E uniform with shorts that are just above the knee. The P.E uniform is maroon in color with a logo on the left side of my chest.

F.U

Like, fuck you?

Anong klaseng paaralan ito?!

I saw wounds on my arm, elbow, and thigh. I also felt a band-aid above my right eyebrow, which still stung a bit. I glanced at the door as it suddenly opened, revealing a school nurse.

“You’re awake!” Natutuwang wika nito bago lumabas muli.

Wala pang sampung minuto ay muli itong bumalik, pero may kasama na siya.

“Allow me to check your wounds for a moment.” Malumanay napagkakasabi ng nurse bago sinuri ang katawan ko.

I couldn’t take my eyes off the man behind her.

“The wound on your thigh and arm has closed. Don’t let dust enter the wound on your right eyebrow so it doesn’t get infected.”

I nodded before looking again at the man standing at the end of the hospital bed, inspecting my wounds.

He stared back at me with his hypnotizing dark hazel eyes. He was wearing a black thick glasses that every nerd wears, but of course, not all nerds are wearing glasses. But he looks like a smart hot nerd from a film... A six-feet tall, gorgeous, and sexy white skinned nerd!

“Maiwan ko muna kayo.” Paalam ng school nurse pagkatapos magsulat ng observation sa notebook na hawak niya.

Nang magsara ang pinto ay muli akong napatingin sa lalaking kanina pa pala akong pinagmamasdan.

“I am Demon Dupris.” He introduced himself as our eyes met.

“I don’t care if you’re D—” My defiance faltered when his name finally registered late in my mind. “Wait. What?”

“Follow me. She’s waiting for you.” Wika niya bago naunang maglakad sa pintuan.

Even though I’m confused, I stood up. The wound on my thigh stung a bit, but it didn’t last long, so I pretended to stretch as the man looked at me, probably noticing my discomfort earlier.

He prompted me to follow him and so I did.

Almost all the students we passed by were stepping back to let us through. Some from afar seemed to be staring even into my soul. Their eyes darkened as if they wanted to say something.

I raised an eyebrow at them. Weird.

We were at the stairs leading to the second floor when the school bell rang.

The students began to move fast. Madaming pababa at paakyat sa hagdanan. Halos banggain na nila ang buong pagkatao ko pero wala akong nagawa sa dami nila.
