WRATH | SDS Present ✔ (TO BE EDITED)

Chapter 2

"Respeto naman o!"

Nanahimik ang buong classroom namin dahil sa pag-sigaw ng president namin. Nakuha din nito ang atensyon ko, hindi dahil sa galit nya kundi sa unang salitang binitawan nya.

"Kanina pa ako nag-eexplain dito pero hindi kayo nakikinig. Bahala kayo sa buhay nyo." Inis nyang sabi bago mag-walkout.

Murmurs started to fill the classroom when he left but I just remained staring at the board, still bothered with the word respect.

Yes, I know that sumobra ako kay Gwen but what I said was true anyway. Mas inuna pa nya ang pag-aartista kaysa mag-aral kaya anong klasing 'future' ang ibibigay nya kay Xavier? A life full of publicity?

My attitude was understandable because I just want them to realize that Gwen is not the right woman for Xavier. May attitude problem man ako, atleast I am educated and has class.

However, Xavier cannot see the real me which really hurts. Especially the things he said to me kaya sigurado ako ngayon na lalo nya akong kakamuhian. He is too blinded by his 'love' to Gwen kaya hindi nya nakikita ang mas magandang opportunity na nasa mismong harapan na nya.

"Yung sinasabi ni Brent kanina is yung upcoming Foundation Week."

Nalihis ang pag-iisip ko dahil sa pag-sasalita ng class secretary namin.

"This year daw, we need to end up with a booth at kailangan mapasa ngayong araw yung outline plan ng booth natin." Sabi pa nya.

We're in college already pero may ganito pang mga gimik?

"Suggest na kayo ng mga gusto nyong booth. Yung unique, okay? Para kapag pinasa na natin yung otline, hindi ma-reject. Tapos botohan."

I rolled my eyes before I opened my IG account. I am not into these kind of stupidity.

"Accountancy 3A, diba?"

I looked up from my phone when I heard a student voice asked. It was the student council VP. He gave a paper to our secretary before he left then I looked back in my phone screen.

"...this is to establish a good unity between the students. Since it is a late memorandum, the outline of the booth of each paired courses will be expected tomorrow at 6 pm on Student Council Office. Guys, partner natin ang Chem Engineering 3B."

Mabilis pa sa alas kwatro ang pag-lingon ko dahil sa huling sinabi ni Aubrey. I looked at her unbelievably dahil hindi talaga ako makapaniwala na partner namin ang klase nina Xavier.

Hindi ko alam kung kikiligin ba ako dahil parang destiny ito pero nasa puso ko pa rin ang sakit ng mga salitang binitawan nya. It was almost a month after that incident happened at isang buwan ko na rin syang hindi nakikita dahil feeling ko iiyak ako kapag nagkaharap kami, thinking that he sees me as a trash.

"Kapag pala walang participation ay may deduction sa character grade tapos maglilinis ng public restrooms for a week."

I was just thinking about boycotting the Foundation Week, psh! If only I am in Philipps Academy, things would be so much easier.

"Tayo na lang ang pumunta sa engineering department. Para naman mas maraming engineering student ang makita natin." Malanding sabi ng isa kong kaklase kaya napa-ikot ko ang mga mata ko.

My other classmates agreed to her that's why I am forced to go with their stupid idea. Bahagya akong lumayo sa mga kaklase kong OA magpapansin sa mga engineering students dahil nakakahiya silang kasama.

I feel so anxious habang papalapit kami sa room nina Xavier dahil hindi ko alam kung paano ko sya haharapin. I don't want to look stupid in front of him pero ayaw ko namang isipin nyang naapeketuhan ako ng mga sinabi nya kahit nasaktan talaga ako.
