Chapter 2Bahagya pa akong napatigil ng makita ang nakasulat sa sticky note. Napakunot ako at lumipad na naman ang isipan.
I tapped my cheeks to stop myself from thinking too much before I walked inside the room. I sat on the chair near the large window where I can see the open field and the other school buildings.
A small smile escaped my lips, I suddenly remembered my twin. She's always sitting near the window, sa klase man or kapag magbi-biyahe kasi sabi niya gusto niya ang mga nakikita niya sa labas ng bintana.
Napailing na lang ako dahil sa sari-saring bagay na dumadagdag sa isipin ng utak ko. Couple of minutes passed and our professor entered the classroom.
"Good afternoon, since I need to attend an urgent meeting, I will just discuss your group project. This will be submitted on the end of this semester. Marami pa kayong time para gawin ito but since magkakaroon ng sports event next week at by schedule naman ang pagpunta doon ng bawat department, sana magamit niyo 'yung time. I'll give plus points as magpapasa ng mas maaga sa deadline and if satisfied ako sa ipinasa exempted na sa third and fourth quiz," Miss Gallegos explained.
Nagkaroon ng bulungan at iba't iba pang ingay dahil sa sinabi ni Miss Gallegos. Ang iba ay natutuwa at excited, ang iba naman ay dismayado.
No leaders were assigned, she just reset to the class record and divide our class into twelve groups with three members each. She ordered us to sit with our group mates before she discussed the project.
I'm fine with my group mates, matino naman si Yvonne at si Franz at pawang mga grade conscious at nais makatapos na walang bahid ng bagsak ang marka. Nagkatinginan pa kaming tatlo bago nagtanguan at nagdesisyong pumwesto sa may bandang unahan.
Hindi na kataka-takang research paper ang ipinaggagawa sa amin. The topic must be anything related to study habits and learnings. Respondents will be involved including the survey.
Miss Gallegos added something about the title defense that is going to happen two weeks from now before she bid her goodbye to attend the meeting.
"So, how are we going to start this?" Franz asked while tapping her pen on the desk.
"We better look for at least three interesting topics and the related studies para mas madali," Yvonne suggested.
"Yes, maybe we can read and identify which topic to use by tomorrow," I said.
"The earlier the better. I'll create a group chat for us," Franz said na agad naming tinanguan ni Yvonne.
We even talked about other stuffs to consume the remaining time for this class. I don't have a problem naman with regard to talking and spending time with other people except my friends, sadyang hindi lang ako ganoon ka-kumportable pero kaya ko namang makisama.
Makalipas ang ilang minuto ay nagsikilusan na ang lahat para sa kani-kaniyang susunod na klase. I bid my goodbye to Franz and Yvonne before going out of the room. I turn to the left to go down the stairs and proceed to my next class.
I was just meters away from my next class' room but Via blocked my way.
"Alli, wait," she called.
"Oh, Via, what can I do for you?" I asked.
"May meeting tayo sa club, naghihintay na si Sir Benedict."
"May klase ako, Via. I can't attend right now," sagot ko. Istrikto pa naman si Sir Laras kaya mahirap lumiban sa klase niya.
"I know, and halos lahat ng club members natin ay may klase that's why I handed an excuse letter sa professors bago ko kayo puntahan." Tipid akong napangiti roon at sumama na sa kanya upang puntahan ang iba pang members.
