" Manong Hulyo, pwedi mo ba akong bilhan? " I said.

We were inside the car, I was still looking at Mira right now

" Bakit ayaw mong ikaw bumili? She's your friend " He looked at me confused

" Im afaid baka kasi hindi siya maging masaya pag nakita niya ako" I replied

I think Manong Hulyo understand what I'm trying to say so he finally agreed.

Nakita ko ang ngiti sa mga mata ni Mira ng sabihin ni Manong Hulyo na bibilhin niya lahat.

I was happy that somehow I could help her

" Jess san kana? " Claire asked

I was talking to Claire through the phone

" School's Gate " I answered

" Bilisan mo na, malapit na mag roll call " She replied

Today was our field trip and unfortunately I'm almost late. I was running as fast as I could to reach at the meeting place, I saw the bus I could see it was already, thankfully I told Claire to reserve me a seat next to her.

Pumasok na ako sa bus at nakita ko si Claire kumakaway mula sa second to the last na upuan sa bus.

" San si Mira? " Tanong ko sabay upo sa upuan

" She's in the front kasi nahihilo daw siya dito sa likuran " She replied

Mrs Punzal went to the front holding the list and the roll call started.

" Mark Rayver Dominguez "

" Present! "

" Jessica Rae Suarez "

" Present " I shouted

" Mira Garcia "

" Present! "


" Noreen Oraiz "

" Present! "

"Claire Marie Sanchez "

" Present! "

" Adriel Sorin Decena "Tumingin sa amin si Mrs Punzal


" Decena?... " Mrs Punzal said again


No one answered, He isn't still here?


" Saan si Adriel? " Mrs Punzal asked

" Wala pa po siya " Mark answered


" Those who have contact, try calling him, lets continue... " Mrs Punzal said

" Glaiza Laroya "


Walang sumagot, tumingin ulit si Mrs Punzal sa amin.

" Wala din si Laroya? " Mrs Punzal said


" Huy Laroyaa!! " John, one of my classmates shouted.

" Ha? ay p-present Maam! " She said and the whole people inside the bus laughed, including me.

When the roll call ended but Adriel hasn't still arrived. he was 15 mins late, Mrs Punzal and the others tried calling him but he wont answer.

Suddenly a boy came running to the bus.

" Im here! " Adriel said

" Your 15 mins late Mr Decena " Mrs Punzal replied

" Sorry Maam " Adriel said
