It's been 3 days had passed since I met Harris, the insane man. Sariwa pa rin sa akin ang gabing nakilala ko siya. He's always on my mind even though they called me crazy. They keep on insisting that Harris Latchman didn't exist. They keep on telling me that I was only dreaming---so I have to let him go.

And today is our College Days. I don't have to be prepared for the modeling dahil kampante na ako na manalo sa kompetisyong ito. Palagi naman akong nananalo pagdating sa ganitong paligsahan.

I woke up early dahil may parade kami ngayon and as their 1st year college muse, I'll be proudly presenting our banner. I have to go to school in or on time because racing of banners with the Escorts and Muses will next to be competed.

After 30 minutes of preparing ay sa wakas natapos na rin ako. Hinihintay ko na lamang ngayon sina Zyreine at Dwelly na sunduin ako rito. Ayaw ko ng magpahatid sa driver namin. It would be boring if I do that! Mas sanay at kampante pa ako kapag kasama ko silang pumunta sa school.

I am waiting here in our small hut near at the garden. Mas mabuting dito ako maghihintay dahil malapit lang ito sa gate namin at para na rin makalabas kaagad ako kapag umabot na sila.

As I am waiting for them to drive up, I opened my social media accounts to search Harris’ name. Ngayon lang kasi ako nagkaroon ng oras na hanapin ang profile niya. And unfortunately, Harris doesn't have facebook, instagram, twitter and google account. He's really mysterious!

~Beep Beep Beepppppp!~

Napatayo kaagad ako nang marinig ko ang tunog ng kotse ni Zyreine. I walk quickly and drawn nearer to them.

Nakita ko silang naghihintay sa labas habang nakasandal ang kanilang sarili sa kotse.

“Kahit hinahabol ka na ng aso ay maganda ka pa rin, Azi.” Dwelly smilingly complemented.

“Eh, siya lang naman 'yong maganda sa ating tatlo.” Dagdag naman ni Zyreine.

“Don't worry we are all beautiful.” Sambit ko naman sa kanila at saka ibinuka ang aking kamay para yakapin silang dalawa.

“Sige na nga maganda na tayong tatlo.” Dwelly said while hugging me tightly.

“Oh, sha pasok na tayo sa loob at baka malate pa tayo.” Wika naman ni Zyreine kaya ibinitaw ko na ang pagyakap sa kanila.

“Let's go!” Dwelly excitingly yelled.

Pumasok na kami rito sa kotse at inumpishan ng imaneho nang mabilis ni Zyreine ang sasakyan. At dahil sa sobrang bilis ng takbo ay kaagad naman kaming naka-abot sa university namin.

Students are gathering with their respective friends. They are wearing their genuine smile again. Kita ko sa mga mukha nila ang excitement sa magiging activities namin. Ngayon kasi ang opening ng college days.

“Hi, idol. Puwede pa picture?” Laking gulat ko nang magtanong ang isang babae rito na magpapa-picture sa akin.

I can't believe that I have my own fans. 'Yong mga studyante kasi rito ay may takot sa akin na lapitan ako.

Wait, should I call them fans? Baka kasi nagagandahan lamang sila sa akin kaya sila magpapapicture.

“Hello, sure.” Sagot ko kaagad at lumapit sa kanila.

“Thank you.” Bigkas nito.

“Hali na kayo.” Tawag naman ng isang babae at agad namang lumapit ang ibang miyembro.

“1, 2, 3 smile.” The girl said before clicking the camera.

“Again.” She continued at ngumiti naman kaming lahat.

“Wait, I need to have a copy of us.” I said and called Dwelly to take pictures.

“Here's my phone.” I said and handed out my phone to Dwelly.

“In 1, 2, 3 smile.” Dwelly mumbled and clicked the camera thrice.

“Here's your phone.” Sabay bigay ni Dwelly sa 'kin.

“Thanks a lot, Azi.” They said in chorus while waving their banners.

“Wait, is that me?” I barely asked them when I saw my pictures in their banners.

“Yes, it's you idol.” Sagot naman ng kausap ko kanina.

“Why did you do that?” I asked.

“Because we are your fans. Tahimik lang kaming fans mo noon and now I have decided to show up our fandom.”

I felt too much gratitude. I thought peopled hated me because of my attitude. I can't believe that I have these sweeties confessing that they were my fans. This us such a great delight.

“Oh, really? By the way thanks for your warmest support, sweeties.” I said and smiled at them.

“We will always support you, Azi.” They asserted in unison.

“Thank you talaga---”

“Be careful girls, baka sa susunod, we'll find you dead.” Napatigil ako sa aking pagbigkas nang magsalita ang baklang tikbalang dito.

“Are you referring to me?” I calmly asked.

“Hala, natamaan ka ba?” Pilosopong tanong nito.

“Hoy bakla na ang katawan ay hugis sardinas! Puwede ba umalis ka rito. Naghahamon ka ata ng gulo!” Mabangis na sigaw ni Zyreine sa kanya.

“I can handle this, Zyreine.” Tugon ko sa kanya.

“At paano kung ikaw nga ang tinutukoy namin? Papatyin mo rin ba kami?” The ugly lady bravely hurled an insult.

“Dwelly!” Storming out of her emotions, Dwelly ran slap into the girl.

I shouted when Dwelly dared to slap her. I don't want to make chaos in front of my fans. Hindi dapat sila makaka-alam sa mga ugali at gawain namin. They are of out of this!

“Let us be professional.” I whispered in Dwelly's ear and yet she gives me a giggled.

“We have time to revenge.” I added.

“By the way thanks sweeties. See you around!” I said and walked out.

Iniwan na namin ang mga impakta. I don't have to deal with those freaks. They are just a waste of time! Lalo na ngayong may parade pa kami. We can play with them after this. Let's see whose bloods were burst out upon their body. Hinding-hindi ko kasi pinapalagpas ang mga taong naninira sa akin.

Natapos na rin ang parade. People thrown complements and flattering about my excessive beauty. Men were fantasizing my body. They like and love me.

“Paging to all escorts and muses please come forward!” Anunsyo ng host sa amin.

Archer initiated his sniper engine and embark me to the front. People are whooping at me while throwing goodlucks.

“Give it up for 4th year college escort and muse!” Sigaw ng host kasabay ng paghiyaw ng mga 4th year students.

“And for the second year!”

“And of course to these handsome escort and beautiful muse from 1st year!” The host shouted so I just gave them a beautiful smile while waving my right hand to my co-students.

“And now the stage are all yours.”

“IN 1, 2, 3 RAISE YOUR BANNER!”

I quickly pulled up the rope as Archer helps me to do it. I didn't mind others, we give focus on ours. Archer hurriedly ties up the rope.

“We're done.” He mumbled and lift up his head.

Tumingin ako sa kalaban namin at nakita kong kami ang naunang natapos. This moment casted me a great smile.

“Now we have our first from 1st year college!” I give Archer a high five, acknowledging for his job well done.

Zyreine and Dwelly showed their thumbs up as well as my classmates. This is just a beginning of my victory. Because success lives in me.
