[ONGOING] NOT JUST PENELOPE

31: Cold Treatment

PENELOPE

It's Tuesday and I just woke up with a headache. Last night, I slept really late just to finish all the requirements needed to have all my clearances signed.

I really hate it when teachers ask us a lot of requirements just for their signature like it's worth a million or something.

A knock came from my door. It must be my breakfast. I'm not really feeling well today so I just asked them to served it here.

"Come in." I watched them set everything up.

"Miss, we already prepared the things you requested for your bath today."

"Thank you." They bowed down and left. 

I didn't have enough sleep so I requested them to set up scented candles in my bathroom today to at least make me feel better.

After eating, I took my bath and got dressed. I wasn't in the mood to dress up so I just randomly threw on a plain Ralph Laurent white shirt and paired it with a denim skirt and white shoes. 

I don't really feel like wearing my uniform. I don't remember even wearing it. Thank God, the university us lets us wear whatever we want.

After all the preparations, I went down.

"Where's dad?" I asked Nana as soon as I reached the living room. Ever since Daddy got home, I never really had to the chance to see him because it's either he is in an important meeting or he is asleep.

"I've heard he has an important meeting with the board today, dear."

"Oh, I see." What's new?

Nana looked at me with concern, "Are you okay, dear?"

"Yes, Na. I'm just tired. I'm going ahead."

"Oh, God bless you, dear." She smiled. "Rod is waiting outside."

I gave her a kiss on her cheek, "Thanks, Na."

Minutes later, I arrived in school. It's been days since I last saw that dork and thank God, because seeing him is the last thing that I want in the world right now. How dare him call me a brat?

Also, did he just say he has a problem with my attitude? 

In case he didn't know, I'm sarcastic and I have a smart-ass attitude. It's my natural defense against drama, bullshit, and stupidity.

While walking, I tried to find my phone in my bag to check my schedule when all of a sudden, I bumped into someone.

I looked up and guess who? It's the dork. Argh! How annoying.

He looked at me with a blank expression and apologized.

"Sorry for bumping into me or for calling me a brat?" I crossed my arms and he just stared at me.

I was waiting for his response, but he just walked away.

Seriously? HE JUST LEFT?

So he's giving me the cold treatment now?

THE DISRESPECT!

I turned around but he is nowhere to be found. 

Argh! I'm just making a fool of myself.

That dork is a human version of period cramps. 

He isn't even worth my time!

I proceeded immediately to my room.

What a great way to start the day, Penelope!
