Grant's Revenge

Chapter 1

"What's the difference between the tortoise and the turtle?"

My mind is busy doodling in my notebook again. Pero yung mata ko ay gumagala sa loob ng classroom.

There's few people who already caught my attention.

Samantha Callaghan. Is she the other genius kid? Her eyes is also different. It speaks intelligence. Yung pag tumingin sya sa ibang bata parang bagot na bagot din sya.

Another is Kayleigh Montello. Well, nothing fancy. She's just too pretty. Mukha din syang prinsesa na mapera. I might be friends to her tapos papalibre ako ng maraming pagkain.

"What are you doing?"

Napatingin ako sa katabi ko. What's her name na nga again? Why are we arrange kasi alphabetically?

"Alliston." The girl smiled at me. She's charming and incredibly pretty for a kid. But I don't like her smile. It's a bit bitchy for me.

"Grant." I answered back.

"So what are you doing? Hindi ka din nakikinig?"

Umiling ako. The class is boring though. Who teach such boring topic anyways? Pero I just kept my mouth shut. I don't want to be rude.

"The topic is indeed boring." Pag agree din ni Alli. Pagkatapos ay pinakita sakin yung notebook nya. Nakasulat doon yung seating arrangement namin. "Do you want a copy of this? Just share me what's in your lunchbox and I'll give you a copy."

How can she get to know the names of everyone? Weird.

"Why would I need it?" hindi ko napigilan na itanong sa kanya.

Nagkibit-balikat lang si Alliston. Maybe she's finding it weird too. Well, may sense naman yung ginawa nya. Mas mabilis ko machecheck kung sino sa mga kaklase namin yung okay dikitan at hindi.

"Alli, you should listen. Tigilan mo nga yan." Bulong ng isa pang babae na nasa harapang upuan nito ni Alliston.

A typical ideal kid. Yung batang halatang good in class. Teacher's pet. Tahimik. Mabait. Masunurin.

A typical boring. Is that Alli's friend?

Pasimpleng sinulyapan ko yung seating arrangement na ginawa ni Alliston.

So, her name is Jennifer Mercedes.

"O, ano na? Anong baon mo?" Kulit sakin ni Alliston na tinitingnan talaga yung lunch box ko.

I gave her a friendly grin tapos inabot ko sa kanya yung tumbler ko.

"Eto o. Akin na yan."

Nakangiting nakipagpalit naman ito sakin. I gave her my tumbler and she gave me her paper. Yung papel na pinilas sa mamahalin nitong notebook.

She immediately opened the tumbler and sipped from it. Pagkatapos ay malakas itong napatili.

An evil smile crossed my lips. Lalo pa at masama yung tingin sakin ng kaibigan nito. Tapos lahat na nakatingin kay Alliston.

Kasalanan nya. She's trying na manlamang ng kapwa e. Bounce back lang.

"Yes, Miss Parker?" Masungit na tanong ng teacher namin sa kanya. "Don't you know that it's rude to interrupt someone when she's talking infront of class?"

Pigil na pigil ko yung matawa habang tila napapahiyang nagyuko na lang ng ulo si Alliston.

Tumayo yung friend nito. Kinuha yung tumbler na hawak ni Alli at ibinalik sa table ko.
