I attempted to find the masked man in the middle of the crowd. A place this crowded is not that easy to escape so I bet on the tiniest chance of seeing him. But instead of finding him, someone found me.
" To my office, right now," pabulong ngunit may diin na wika ni Sir Jali saken.
Why now of all the time? I'm not in the mood to do volunteer works.
When I arrived at his office, I saw 2 strangers sitting in front of his table. One of them is the rumored Zse while the other was a normal looking, chubby, brown-skinned guy with eyeglasses.
" Mr. Zse, she will accompany you to your room," wika ni Sir. Napalingon ang dalawa saken.
"Thank you Sir Jali," he said in a husky voice.
I gasped. Hindi ako nakapagsalita dahil sa gulat.
" Katherine, ikaw na ang maghatid sa kanila sa room number.... Ah! classmates pala kayo."
Binaling niya ang tingin niya saken.
" I am Zse Zelan. Nice meeting you," the man with eyeglasses said at naglahad ng kamay. His hazel eyes intimidate my soul.
" I'm Katherine Pierce. The pleasure is mine, Mr. Zelan."
"Just Zse, please."
"Zse then."
Nakipag shake hands na ako sa kanya. Hindi ko inasahan na sya si Zse. I thought the rumors were right.
When he let go of my hand, napadako ang tingin ko sa lalaking katabi niya, he's smiling at me yet again, his eyes are anxious.
" Chester Lee nga pala . I'm sorry if I left without leaving my name."
" It's fine. You're not that important anyway."
We exchange smiles at the thought and shake hands.
When Zse introduced himself to the class, everyone was shocked too. Hindi nila inakalang chubby, brown skinned at naka nerd glasses si Zse.
" He looks hot in his pictures."
" Oo nga eh . Akala ko ang gwapo niya."
Napabuntong-hinga na lang ako. Why did they bother to say it in whispers when it's clearly audible?
" Hello everyone. I am Chester Lee, 19 ."
The room is filled with giggles.
"Ang gwapo nya talaga."
" Ang hot beh."
When the murmurs died out, he continued.
" I am Zse's bodyguard."
This time, maging ako ay nagulat na rin.
Is he kidding me?

Kahit na nasa loob na ako ng classroom, binabagabag pa rin ako ng Code Game. I tried all sitting position I know of but it didn't help a bit.
"Ang likot mo," pabulong na reklamo ni Chester dahil nakaupo lang sila sa likod ko.
Hindi ko na nakayanan ang pagiging paranoid ko kaya pagkatapos ng klase, dumeretso na ako sa police station. Mababaliw na ako dahil sa Code Game at kailangan ko na 'tong aksyunan. Tresspassing of private property will not be tolerated by law.
I was in front of the police station but I don't feel like coming in.
Ano bang sasabihin ko? Pa'no kung mali ang iniisip ko?
