"Yah! Alam niyo bang Powerpuff Girls ang tawag naming magkakabarkada sa inyong tatlo?" Stacy suddenly blurted out to Zerine. We're currently here inside the classroom, doing nothing.
"Yes, we know that. Narinig pa nga kita dati eh. Sabi mo ako si Blossom, si Bubbles si Athena, tapos si Buttercup si Daphne" Zerine rolled her eyes so Stacy hug her in a cheerful way.
"Hoy, huwag ka namang bumalik sa pagiging mean girl mo Zerine. Dati pa naman 'yon eh" Napaface-palm nalang ako dahil sa sinabi ni Stacy. Gaga talaga 'to.
"Believe me, we're not mad about that. To be honest, may tawag din naman kami sa inyong lima" Zerine laughed, which causes me to sigh. I miss my friends.
"Huh? Ano?" Tanong naman ni Stacy dito.
"The Ghoul Squad, yung sa Monster High. Sakto kasing lima lang kayong girls sa barkadahan niyo, kaya ayon. Ah? Edi ito nga, ang sabi ni Daphne, si Blare daw si Frankie Stein, tapos ikaw Stacy si Draculaura, si Ayesha si Cleo De Nile, si Sharen si Lagoona Blue, then si Wendy si Clawdeen Wolf" Wika ni Zerine kaya bahagya kong nakagat ang aking pang-ibabang labi. Nakakalungkot na hanggang ganito nalang ang pwede naming gawin, nakakalungkot na wala na ang mga kaibigan namin.
I was about to say something but someone from the student council entered our classroom.
"Hi, goodmorning! So, I'm here because I have a news to announce. Anyway, I'll start na. Ah? Next week on friday is our foundation day, kaya naisipan ng principal natin na mag-set ng party sa araw na 'yon. It's six pm, until two am. Required na dumalo ang lahat ng students, especially tayong mga college. Well, about the party naman, there's a tiny twist kasi ang attire natin ay halloween costume. I know it's really weird, but that's all! Thank you for listening!" The girl stated, before she quickly left.
"What the crap? Ano tayo High School? May halloween costume pa silang nalalaman. Peste" I heard Dave murmured.
Nakita kong magsasalita pa sana si Stacy, kaso bigla nang dumating si Professor Valliente.
"Okay, get back to your respective seats" Panimula niya kaya't dali-dali kaming umayos ng upo.
"Well, just so you know, madami pa talaga akong inaasikaso ngayon kaya ipapaalam ko nalang muna sa inyo yung collaborative work na ipapagawa ko. Don't worry, you can do this after class. Anyway here's my task, entitled Architect Profile. So, the group should make a word document, presenting your selected architect. Start with preliminary research from Course Text Book and References listed on page two of syllabus. Again, don't worry, iiwanan ko 'tong papel na naglalaman ng task niyo. Kayo na ang bahalang tumingin ng ibang instructions dito, and also, nakalista din sa papel na 'to yung groupings niyo. Well, ang deadline? Bukas agad. Oh, walang aangal at basic lang naman 'tong pinapagawa ko. Saka isa pa, groupings naman. Well, that's all"

"I think, I'm going insane" Zerine uttered, while we are eating inside the cafeteria.
"Bakit naman? Lunch na lunch tapos maloloka ka. Ano bang problema mo sis?" Stacy replied, as she chew her food.
Paulit-ulit na napamura ng mahina si Zerine, kaya't hindi namin maiwasang magkatinginan ni Stacy. Binitawan ko na nga ang kutsara't tinidor ko kasi hindi na rin ako mapakali sa ikinikilos niya eh. Seriously, what's happening to her?
"Hey, you should spill the tea" Walang pag-aalinlangang saad ni Stacy, dahilan upang mapanguso si Zerine.
"Tell us, what's bothering you?" I added with a stern look in my eyes.
