"Fuck," I cursed under my breath.

Halos matampal ko na ang noo ko at tumitig lang sa sahig.

Pagkababa pa lang namin sa kotse ay pinagtitinginan na agad kami.

I hate this attention. Mas lalo akong tinitignan ng mga kumikilala sa akin, because for the first time, I'm not alone.

"Nakikita niyo ba ang nakikita ko?"

"Oo girl! May kasama si Courtney! Ang gwapo!"

"My God. Ba't siya kasama ng mga pogi?"

"Looks pa lang, kabog na! 'Di niya deserve makasama 'yang mga lalaki!"

I heard them laugh. I breathed heavily as I sighed.

"Tara na?" Alex asked as he went beside me.

Nag-angat naman ako ng tingin sa kanya at pinasadahan din ng tingin ang iba naming kasama. Anton, Cole and Khael was just looking at me. Binalik ko ang tingin ko kay Alex at tumango. Agad ko rin iniwas ang tingin ko sa kanila.

They probably heard the whispers of those girls.

Ayaw ko naman malaman nila na inaapi ako rito sa school. My parents and brothers don't even know about this. Hindi rin naman ako nagsusumbong.

It's not a big deal after all.

Nagsimula na akong maglakad papuntang auditorium ng nakayuko pa rin.

Alex and Anton is walking beside me, while Cole is attracting more attention by talking loudly at Khael.

Halos mapairap na lang ako. Ang ingay niya talaga!

There were lots of babbles around us. It's their first time seeing me with a company. Kahit ang pagsabay kayna Kuya Chris at Kuya Chrome ay hindi pa nila nakikita.

They probably are shocked to see me having someone else walking together with me.

The audition is held in the auditorium if I'm not mistaken.

"'Di mo ba kami bibigyan ng tour, Miss?"  tanong sa akin ni Cole.

I wanted to look back at him. Pero nanaliti akong nakayuko.

"I d-don't know... Hindi ako gumagala rito sa school. I only know other places here such as the offices. Other than that, wala na akong alam," I said in a low voice, but enough for them to hear me.

"Wala kang tambayan dito?" Alex asked curiously.

Umiling naman ako. "I immediately go home after school. I h-have no friends after all," sabi ko sa isang maliit na boses.

"Kawawa ka naman Miss. Gusto mo bigyan kita? Ang dami kong friends!" sabat ni Cole.

"Huy! Tumigil ka nga!" Anton looked back at him.

"It's okay." Bumuntong hininga ako.

I wanted to get pissed, but I was just too tired. Gusto kong manumbat, pero ayaw ko rin naman magkaroon ng kaibigan, so I'll stick to that.

Tumigil ako sa paglalakad ng dumating na kami sa harap ng pinto ng auditorium. Sumilip ako at nakitang may mga tao roon sa loob.

The people close to us are eyeing the boys that are with me. Mostly the girls are. Napailing na lang ako at hinarap sila.

"I'll wait here outside. U-Uh... pasok na kayo. Malaki na man kayo," I said as I stared at my fingers playing each other.

Hindi ko alam kung bakit ako napapayag dito! I wanted to scream and shout and let out my anger, but I guess I feel tired now. I just want to rest.
