Chapter 2

[ding dong diiiiing]

I heard a soft sound on my ear, it's a school bell, It's time to go to classroom.  Hindi ka pwedeng malate ng ilang minuto dahil hindi kana makakapasok sa maghapon.  Yun ang patakaran ng school unless may valid reason ka.

I left my sacred place and start walking to classroom,  it's not far from the rooftop,  since it's our senior year.  so, it just a one floor difference. 

"Good Morning,  Hanabi-chan" a girl who is known for being genius and talented.  A versatile one,  she's good at all things.  I don't know,  if she masters it all, so anyway,  why would i be interested in her?

"Morning." i coldly replied to her.  I saw her smile faded.  I continue to walk and found out that my seatmate is him. 

'Thaddeus Mendoza' i recall it on my mind. 

I went to my seat and arrange my things, in any minute,  the teacher will come. Our subject for today is chemistry.  Since,  finals are approaching,  our teacher said that we will have activities today regarding to periodic table.  Everyone don't like the idea, well except me.  I love chemistry and i'm planning to take BS Chemistry after i graduate. 

I love chemicals,  i more than curious. My dream is to be forensic chemist.  One reason kung bakit ako nagenroll sa International School,  para kung mag-aaral ako sa ibang bansa,  hindi nako mahihirapan pa.

Since our teacher is a bit late,  everyone's is so noisy about the activity.  Maybe because they don't study at all,  after a long weekend. 

We got a long weekend due to government suspension on all levels,  it because the typhoon is to strong.  And it is,  from what i heard in news,  marami ang nasalanta at mga estrukturang nasira buong Pilipinas. 

Anyway,  Thaddeus, he is silent, and i vaguely tell,  the i am being curious about him.  I hate being curious on someone because i end up showing my other side.  Other students approaching him and asking his name,  where did he came from and live, what his interest or hobbies,  or did he play sports. 

Everyone's eyes is on him. He talks like a machine.  A one question, one answer.  Pero buti hindi niya iniisnob ang mga kaklase ko,  tulad ng ginagawa ko. 

"Hey,  do you remember me?" I am shocked when Sapphire ask him. Maybe icoconfront niya ito sa nangyari sa kanila.

"No." he stared and replied coldly to her. 

Talaga?  Sabi ko naman sayo Sapphire,  one night stand is just one night lust and also, one night,Last.

"We had a great performance last night." she's smirking... 

Sapphire is known for being rich prostitute.  I don't know,  it doesn't bother her.  Para bang ang dating sa ibang tao,  pinagmamalaki niya na wala siyang dignidad.  Miski ako ay hindi ko alam ang ginagawa niya sa sarili niya. Pero alam kong may dahilan siya. 

My classmate are whispering, looking horrible and they are being close minded.  They both judge the person and whispering words that is below the bell.

I saw him stare at her,  and i bet his stare can kill,  because it's too cold but his examining sapphire face. 

"Oh,  i see." he replied. 

Really???  so,  he's the man that sapphire talking about?? Oh waiit,  what's with me?  Why i am reacting silently here??

"You're mistaken,  you should have ask my cousin's name.  I don't fuck strangers.  We have same traits but we have different eyes." he added.
