"Phin! Wake up!"
"Happy?"
"Anong Happy ang pinagsasabi mo diyan? Sabog ka ba?" I opened my eyes to wake up in familiar room. Paglingon ko sa gilid ay sumalubong sa akin ang mukha ng kapatid ko.
"How could you sleep so early but still oversleep?! Bumangon ka na nga diyan. First day na first day ng senior high, late agad. Bangon na!" And with that she went out of my room. Dahan-dahan akong bumangon mula sa pagkakahiga at ginulo ang buhok ko. What was that? And who is Happy?
"Delphiiiiine! Kilos na!" Rinig kong sigaw ni Madi mula sa labas.
"Oo na! Kikilos na! Ang laki ng bunganga m0!" At tsaka ako tumayo at pumasok sa banyo.
"Bakit parang ang lalim ng iniisip mo?" Napabalik ako sa realidad ng magsalita si Madi. Papunta na kami ngayon ng eskwelahan.
"Wala. Tungkol lang to sa panaginip ko," sabi ko habang papasok ng gate ng university.
"Ah yun ba yung sinabi kanina? Happy ba yun?" Tanong niya habang inaayos ang sarili at ang gamit niya. Pinatay ko ang makina at kinuha ang backpack ko sa likod. Tumango na lamang ako at lumabas ng sasakyan.
"Alam mo, nasobrahan ka lang ata sa tulog eh. Makakalimutan mo lang rin yan. Halika na. Late na tayo," sabi niya bago lumakad palayo. Napabuntong-hininga na lamang ako at tsaka sinundan si Madi papunta sa room namin.
Pagdating namin sa room namin ay naka-upo na ang lahat at nakatayo na sa harapan ang teacher. Kakatapos lang mag-introduce ng isa naming classmate.
"Mr. and Ms. Boromeo, late on the very first day of school," pangangaral ng adviser namin.
"Sorry miss," Madi and I chorused. Miss just nodded. We hurried to find a vacant seat and sat down hurriedly. The introduction went on. This time a girl who looks like a new student walked to the front. She has this bright smile plastered on her face and she doesn't look anxious or nervous for a student who just transferred in a new school.
"I believe you are new," the new girl nodded. "Please introduce yourself."
"Good morning everyone! I'm Hajah Persephone Montreal. 17 years old." She said.
"What do you prefer us to call you?"
"Just call me Happy, miss."
