SILENCE

Chapter 1

I never had sex in my whole life. I am very careful about it. My virginity. It is a sin to take away your purity without marriage. I believe that it is very sacred for married people. The thing is, young people today is so aggressive ones. They don't care about dignity. They always care about little love and its pleasure. They easily carried away by the wrong people. They think that people who are with them right now is the right one. "Ms. Sheryl?" the teacher called my name, snapping my thoughts about our lesson topic. "Yes mam" I replied. "Why are you so preoccupied? Is there anything bothering you?" She said . " No mam, I was just thinking about what will I eat for lunch" I answered. The whole class laugh and chuckles. "Pay attention Ms. Ocho!" I returned back my student mode and thank God she didn't ask me anymore. And she continues of her lectures in class.
Btw, I'm Sheryl Ocho, 20 years old, currently studying 2nd year of BS Nursing. I lived with my older sister, Shiela in a current city. Living my life as a youngest is a torture for me. My family expected me so much. So I have to finish my studies to make them proud.
After class, I'm going straight to the food court to eat. I skip my breakfast ealier this morning so I don't be late. As I arrived at the counter, I buy fried egg, ham, milk, water and 2 cups of rice. "90 pesos mam" the cashier approached me asking me a bill. I give her the exact amount. I sat with my friends at the table, eating happily and enjoyed the food I eat. While I am it, one of my friends ask me, "She, are you virgin?" I just choked of what I heard. Why the hell she's asking that? What am I supposed to answer? If I answer yes, they wouldn't believe me. If I answer no, they will judge me. It took 5 minutes to compose what am I supposed to say. "You wouldn't believe me girls, I don't have any intimate experience with my boyfriend" I answered. "Are you sure? With that long 5 years? You still virgin? Hell no, I can't believe it." she replied. I was hurt a little of what I heard. It's kinda big deal for me about purity. Yes, I'm still virgin. And I'm proud of it. My boyfriend Michael knew about that. He respects me and be patient with me about it. I'm still a little hurt what my friends think of me. Why on Earth I'm friends with these people. I knew that my friends are not virgin anymore. They happily shared about their experiences in bed with their current boyfriends. Hearing them disgusts me but I respect them a lot. After lunch, we headed back to our classroom for the class. Before I go to our room, I go straight to the restroom. Luckily, there's a one cubicle available. While I am enjoying peeing, I heard some girls noises as they entered the restroom. I just recognized the voices right away. My friends that I am with at lunch time. I froze of what I heard before I open the door of my cubicle, "I don't believe her, acting so virgin but she's totally not" Becca said. "I agree with you, but what if she's telling the truth?" Lix replied. "I don't care if she's telling the truth or not, I'm starting to hate her" Becca answered. I don't know what I feel this moment. They are just backbiting me right now. Smiling infront me earlier and lying to my face as friends. I can't hold this any longer, I composed myself to hold my anger and calming myself down. I pulled the door of my cubicle. They notices me right away and literally froze. "She....ryl" Becca stuttered. I managed to give them a blank expression as I go near them, pulling a faucet to wash my hands. Before I leave the restroom, I'm itching to say this to these to twats. " I heard enough, I am so disappointed to you." I watched them warily and leave them in such state. I want to cry but I don't want to show it to them that I am so weak. I managed to go to the classroom on time.
Hours has passed feels like forever. Listening those lecture with these and that gives me a headache. Plus these two twats looking at me is giving me a headache too. As the bell rangs, I rushly go straight home for today. As I arrived home, my sister was already asleep. Good thing she left food at the kitchen. I pick up my phone as it rings. I smiled with the caller Id. My boyfriend. The frustrations and loneliness fades away the moment I heard his voice. " Hi Yhadz?" He happily greeted. " Hello yhadz" I replied. So that's how it goes. While eating my dinner, I told him about what happen earlier and advises me not to hang out with them again. Well as if, I'm a fortune teller, I cannot tell with one look at people whether they're good or bad. I just not commenting it about it to him. I don't want to offend him like that. I just listen to him the whole time until he felt sleepy. "Yhadz, I'm gonna sleep now. Good night baby. I love you" he said. "I love you too baby" I replied and hang up the phone. I just feel tired today, I finished up my plate, brush my teeth and doing my skin care routine before going to bed. I checked my emails, facebook acount and watched short video clips until I fell asleep. I've been thinking that it is going to be a long day tomorrow.
