Lyrus
I shut my book and shook my head. This can't be the final outcome of what I'm reading. I'm just reading some novel but this freaking book gave me a heartache. How does the destiny can play their lives? I mean, how? Then the author leave a question of how destiny plays, I don't know!!
I don't even fucking don't know!
"You alright?" Someone asked.
I just turned left and saw Jan looking at me. I'm all right. But this damn book isn't.
"I'm all right!" I exclaimed as he looked so curious of why my forehead crumpled.
"I'm just wondering of how you act right now," he said and looked at the front.
It was Tuesday, and now's break time. I just want to finish this book so I take my break time to read it. But the chapter of what I'm reading so argh!!
"I'm just disappointed of how the protagonist act like he doesn't love the girl, eh, s'ya ang unang nagkagusto dito!" I said. He's my classmate, he's my close friend here. We rarely talk but I get him a place in my heart as a friend. Hindi naman masama magkaroon ng kaibigan na katulad niyang madaldal, mausisa, at pakialamero. I like when he cares about me and ask of what I'm doing.
"Binilihan pala kita ng cheese cake," he then said as I openned my book to read again.
Tinanggap ko iyon at nagpasalamat. Patuloy kong binasa iyon hanggang sa abutan ako ng klase. I listened carefully and take the importants in my notes.
When the dismissal came, I just get my bag and go out. I'm like a nerd but I'm not. I'm not wearing eyeglasses or contact lens, I'm just me.
"Sandali!"
Umalingawngaw ang sigaw ni Jan sa hallway. Tumigil ako pero hindi ko ito nilingon. Nararamdaman ko naman ang yabag niya dahil nandito kami sa 3rd floor ng gusali.
S'ya ang may pinakamalakas na yabag sa lahat. Tss.
Inakbayan ako nito. Nakipagsabayan sa'kin sa paglalakad. "The school fair is coming, aren't you joining to?" He casually ask.
Wala naman akong pakialam sa mga gano'n. Pero hindi din naman pwede na wala akong gawin dahil mabobore lang ako sa condo kung 'di ako papasok. That's open for all, outsiders too.
I just don't want to get along with them. Masyado silang magulo. I want peace and calm place, pero si Jan! That bastard always ruin it!
Like what he's doing now!
"I haven't decided yet," I simply replied as I stepped down. He followed. I tsked.
"Why you're so stubborn, Jan?!" I asked as I can't handle his presence at my side.
"Just want to make sure you'll be fine," he simply answered me.
"I just don't care of what happen next, I just wanna lay down on the bench and read the books before going home." I exclaimed.
"Tsk, bipolar," he mumbled.
I rolled my eyes on him and walked away. Nagtungo muna ako sa cafeteria para bumili ng makakain bago tumambay sa bench.
Ang haba ng pila. Well, hindi na naman bago iyon dahil uwian na. Marami ang bumibili sa 'di ko malamang dahilan. I shrugged. I'm talking nonsense shit again.
The effect of reading books.
Nang maibigay ang bayad sa order ay umalis na ako agad do'n. I just saw familiar group in this cafeteria. I didn't throw eyes on them. Hindi dahil naduduwag ako, I'm just wanting some peace right now. Ni hindi pa nga magaling ang sugat ko sa kilay gawa ng Architect students na nakasapakan ko kahapon.
I heave a sigh as I passed them and leave the cafeteria. Naglakad na lang ako papuntang bench para naman marelax ako. Lagi ko na lang ginugusto ang katahimikan simula nang mahilig ako sa pagbabasa.
Well, you can't blame me 'cause even the other people wants peaceful place to read the books.
Ang tingin sa'kin ng iba ay 'di nakalagpas. I'm a jerk, an asshole, a piece of shit but has brain.
"Grabe ang tingin," the girl said.
"Nakakalilabot," the other girl added.
I ignored them and walked to the bench. Naupo ako nang marating ko ang bakanteng upuan. I put my headphone in my ears and play a song. I want to calm myself so I played Fireflies by Owl City. And openned the book at its remark.
I got bored so I stood up and threw the trash at the bin beside me. I wanna rest. Ayaw ko pa sanang umuwi pero wala akong magagawa dahil kailangan ko talaga.
Hindi ko pa rin makalimutan kung paano maghiwalay ang mga magulang ko for some issues they can't tell to me. I'm their son, the only son. Why are they keeping secrets from me?
Tinutustusan nila ako. They have my bank account so they transfer my allowance every Sunday.
Abala ako sa pagbutingting ng cellphone when I'm bumped into something. Gotta be the wrong way! Nabangga lang naman ako sa poste.
Kaya napatingin ang ibang kasabay kong maglakad papalabas. They forced themselves not to laugh. Try to, I'll smack them one by one.
Napailing na lang ako at tuluyang lumiko papuntang parking. I get my helmet and start the engine of my motorcycle. I was about to drive when someone blocked my way.
In my freaking curiosity, I moved up the tinted glass in helmet and focus to this someone.
Jade.
"Bro," he said in his baritone.
I rolled my eyes as I removed my helmet. "What?" Sagot ko sa kawalan.
"Wanna beat Benj?" He asked.
I looked at him from head to toe. And laugh, ang kanang kamay ng isang kilalang grupo ang hihingi ng tulong sa'kin? Is he out of his mind?
"Why you asking me that?" I asked back as I read his stares.
"Inaangasan ako saka dinidiskartehan ang girlfriend ko," sabi nito at nagkuyom ng kamao.
"Bakit 'di mo hingian ng tulong ang boss mo?" Tanong ko.
I saw hin sighed. He's about to cry! Poor Jade, my classmate. "Magpinsan sila," he answered me while looking down to his feet.
Yeah, that bad bitch Benj is the cousin of his boss whose named Sid. Alam ko na iyon pero bakit 'di na lang pagsabihan si Benj ng kuya nitong si Ben? Mas matanda naman ang boss niya kaya alam kong mapagsasabihan niya ang kapatid nito. Saka nasa isang grupo ang magkapatid na ito at ang pinsan nilang si Sid sa ibang grupo. But they're not enemies.
"Nevermind! Argh!" Napasabunot s'ya sa sarili niya. "I'll do it by myself!" He then walked out.
