Middle School.
2 months after I transferred to this school away from the city where I came from.
-----------------------------------
"Okay, kids! Talk to your seatmate about your project. I'll be back in a while."
As our teacher left the room, the class was noisy again. My seatmate started eating her snacks which she hid under her table. She's Aelia. Our class mayor, too.
"Hoy, Aelia! Isusumbong kita kay teacher!" Lucas ran out and Aelia chased him. They ran inside the classroom and others followed them. Haaa.... bakit ang gulo ng klaseng to?
"Nandito na si Teacher!" Sigaw ni Marco na nagbabantay sa pintuan ng room. They ran back to their seats and acted as if they were seriously talking about the project.
"Uy, Tree!" Inilapit ni Aelia ang kanyang mesa sakin. "Ano nga ulit yung project natin?" She asked.
"Solar system."
"Ha? Ba't ang hirap ng pinili mo? Sana layers of the earth nalang."
Sinubukan ko siyang tignan ng masama pero hindi yata yun halata dahil sa maliliit kong mata. "Hay. Ikaw ang pumili niyan kahapon di ba?" Sabi ko nalang.
She looked at me and smiled. "Ako?"
Hay. Bakit pa naging mayor ang isang to?
Lunch Break
"Tree! Dito ka na naman ba kakain? Sama ka na samin." Alok ni Aelia habang hawak-hawak ang kanyang lunch box.
"Sasama ako kina Lucas ngayon eh. Pasensiya na. Sa susunod na lang."
She smiled. "Oho~ buti naman at hindi ka na loner ngayon. Hehe. Okay! Enjoy!" And she's gone with her friends.
Do I look like a loner? Hm...
"So, ano na ang masasabi mo ngayon sa klase natin, Tristan?" Tanong ni Lucas. "Dati ang sabi mo samin medyo bored ka sa mga klase. Eh ngayon?"
"Maingay pa rin ang klase tulad ng dati. Bakit ba kasi kayo boto ng boto kay Aelia?"
Nagtinginan lang silang dalawa ni Marco.
"Hindi mo pa rin ba alam?"
"Yung ano?" tanong ko ng di tinitignan si Marco.
