[nak, are you sure about this?] I was a home-schooled student since then. I was feared of being bullied kasi I've never had a friend. Also, gusto rin ako protektahan ng parents ko because they are scared of what might happen to me while I'm in the campus.
Being home-schooled is not so bad. But I wanted to try something new before you know. So I tried taking entrance examinations and luckily, I aced all of them. Including the big 4 universities in our country.
[yes ma. I'll be fine naman po]
[okay love u nak take care!]
[love u too ma]
then the phone call ended.
"Thank you, ma'am here's your receipt"
"Thanks"
After enrolling I decided to get a coffee then I accidentally bumped into a couple of girls. "Oops sorry" I said. Then they smiled at me and ask if I was new here. I nodded. "So saan na punta mo now?" A girl with a blonde hair asked. "Uhm just gonna get some coffee before I go home" then the girl next to her answered "Oh yea? sakto dun din punta namin. Do you wanna go with us?" I hesitated at first because I was shy but in the end, pumayag naman ako haha.
"Hi good morning! welcome to starbucks"
"Hi uhm can I have one white chocolate mocha please"
"hot or cold po ma'am?
"cold please"
"Okay ma'am, Name po?"
"Brielle"
"How 'bout you ma'am?" She asked Jade. "Just one banana bread and water please thanks" Jade is the girl with blonde hair then Isla, the girl she was with a while ago. She wasn't with us because she insisted to find a table good for the three of us.
"One cold white chocolate mocha for ms. Brielle and banana bread for ms. Jade!" We got our orders then sat in the table that Isla got for the three of us. "So, brielle what course did you take?" Jade asked. Isla went to order for herself. "I took Nursing as my pre-med" I answered. "Oh that's great! nursing din kinuha namin ni jade. Anyway, where did you study before?" Isla asked when she got back. "I was a home-schooled student from Treston International College before. This is actually my first time to go to an ordinary university" I replied. "Oh okay. I guess see you tomorrow na lang? haha i gotta go guys sorry" Jade left us in a hurry. After she left, we decided to go home na rin.
"So nak how are you today?" my mom asked while we're having our dinner. "Unusual. Met some friends also" I answered her while getting my food. "Wow! Isn't that great? you found friends already. But nak, always remember ha? to take care and update me" mom was really worried for me but I know that she understands and supports me. Since I don't have any siblings, they are overprotective but I understand them naman kasi I know and I fully understand my situation. After dinner, I went to take half bath and went to sleep.
This is my first day so I got up early and then went directly to my univ. Immediately after entering inside the school, jade and isla called me. "Hey do you have your schedule na?" jade asked "uhm yup. Third floor first room ko how bout you guys?" I replied and showed my schedule to them. "Same pala tayo first subject eh. Let's go?"
While in the classroom, my professor started his introduction to the subject and to some of his personal information like name, age and achievements. It's obvious that my other classmates are used to it because they seem really bored while I focus listening to my prof. When the bell rang, students immediately went out of the room geez. I noticed that a lot of them are excited for the dismissal. Why? because they want to go out like clubbing, shopping and etc. It's really a whole lot different here. Well, it is expected though.
Mom is calling...
I wonder why would my mom call me in the middle of the day? It was just a few minutes ago since I last texted her though.
[hello ma?] I could hear my mom crying.
[mama? What's wrong?]
[Bella, go home now please] I ended the call immediately and then run all the way to my car. While I was in a hurry, i bumped into someone again. geez why lagi na lang. He had a soda in his hand so it spilled off to my clothes. "oh no im sorry. I'm really sorry" I wanted to look at him and say it's fine but i was in a hurry and my mom really needs me right now so I ignored him and drove as fast as I can papunta sa bahay.
When I got home I found my mom crying at the corner and she looked at me saying "nak, yung papa mo"
