Chapter 29: GE;GE√ Mendell Empire

CLAIRA'S POV

I SCOOTED over my bed and tried again to sleep. Minutes passed and my mind is still actively working. Thinking how Amarie cried in my shoulders. I am never fond of hugs and comforts, but I bare with it for her sake.

I didn't asked. I actually didn't need to know. Even if sometimes I'm messing to keep my own business, I still know my limitations. It was evident that she was deeply hurt. I didn't know the reason why they ended up being exes, but I don't want to butt in. It's not my story to tell.

And she's not yet ready to open an old scar. It must've been hard for her.

Kahit hindi ko naintindihan ang pinagdaanan niya, kahit parang mali man sa paningin ng lahat ang naging relasyon nila, I tried to understand and weigh things. You cannot really judge a person by it's cover. Amarie looks girly and yellow, pero hindi mo masabi na nagkaroon na pala siya ng relasyon sa kapwa niya babae.

At first I was really shocked, of course, ngayon lang ako naka-encounter nang ganito. And hell, I treat her already as a friend! Kaya kahit ano pa siya—sila, then it's find. As long as they won't betray me as what the others did to me a long time ago. As long as they will stay true to their selves, then I'm okay with it.

Pero anak ka naman ng kagang kasi! Kahit kasi isipin ko at kahit pa may hinala na ako nang marinig ko ang sigawan nila sa kotse, hindi ko maiwasang mapaisip na pwede pala talaga yun. I mean dude, ako ang naiilang para sa kanila. Lalo pa't magkakasama talaga kami kasi kaibigan ko sila. Pero ugh, I don't know! Bahala na nga sila sa buhay nila! Tangina naman e!

Mariin ako'ng pumikit at pinilit pa ring matulog. Sa ilang oras ko nang pagpabaling-baling ng posisyon ay humimbing na rin ako.

I opened my eyes when my alarm strikes at six. Kahit tinatamad ay tumayo pa rin ako at nag-ayos para pumasok. I wore a simple black v-neck shirt and a maong ripped jeans since I cannot have my uniform yet. I take a deep breath and held my necklace for comfort. I always do this whenever I'm off or sometimes when I'm not feeling good.

Bumaba na ako sa hagdan at dumiretso sa kusina para mag-breakfast. After that, ay sumalampak na ako sa kotse ko at naghanda papunta sa school. Minutes passed and I'm now already parking my car.

I unconsciously bit my lower lip. This is it! First day in school for being the Empress. I just wish things will still work out naturally. I grip the steering wheel tightly while staring at the students who walk passed by me. Others are looking at my car, knowing that this is mine. They're anticipating if I'm gonna get out now.

Malalim ako'ng humugot ng hininga. Mabilis ko'ng kinaltukan ang sarili ko. Bakit nga ba ako kinakabahan? I tsked. Walang emosyon akong lumabas sa sasakyan at malakas yung isinara kaya agad napalingon ang mga taong nasa paligid ko. May ibang nagulat at mabilis yumuko, ang iba naman ay parang walang pakialam pero yumuko pa rin bilang paggalang.

Isa rin 'yan sa napansin ko, gumagalang sila sa pamamagitan ng pagyuko. Akala mo naman instsik o koryano o baka naman ganun lang talaga sila noon pa man. Ah ewan! Pakialam ko diba?

Palakad pa lang ako nang kusa ako'ng sinasalubong ng mga estudyante.

"Good morning, Empress." Lul.

"Have a nice day, Empress!" Have a nice life, nigga.

"You're lovely today, Empress!" And you're not.

"Ang angas mo po, sana all!" I snickered. Hindi ko maiwasang mangilabot sa mga pinagsasabi nila. Kung makabati akala mo close kami noon. I tsked. Hindi ko nalang sila pinansin at walang emosyon na naglakad papasok. Habang binabaybay ko ang hallway ay halos gusto ko nang magmura!
