My Lady's Achilles Heel

Chapter 3

Coast Grove University

The car stopped at the parking lot," Manong wag niyo na po ako sunduin mamaya," I said before heading out of the car.

Malapit lang naman ang bahay namin sa University kaya nakarating kami agad. Medyo madamidami pa ang tao sa school ground kahit malapit na mag ring yung bell.

I saw the adviser of the student council approaching me, "Good morning Miss Aragon," bati niya.

"Morning miss," I greeted back. She prefer to call her miss 'cause according to her, it makes her young and student-like teacher.

"Kindly inform the president that I will not be joining the meeting later," sabi saakin ni Miss Fohas.

"Noted miss," I nodded before she walked pass by me.

I heard the bell rang so I walked faster... ayoko naman na maunahan pa ako ni Mrs. Ledezma. She's like the typical terror teacher who would embarass you in front of your classmates if you do something that is against her set standards.

The moment  I opened the door, the classroom was noisy, I glanced at the front and saw that no one was there. That explains why.

Some of my classmates acknowledge my presence by smiling at me, ofcourse I also smiled back at them. I'm not really that friendly and all but I have good communication skills and I can get along with everyone, maybe that's the reason why I still won every election.

Hindi nagtagal pumasok na din ang guro sa silid, "Morning class," Mrs. Ledezma greeted.

She's our AP teacher by the way.

"Good morning ma'am," bati ng mga pabibo kong mga kaklase.

"It's already our fourth quarter and as part of your performance, I would like you to pass a reflection paper regarding your Junior years here in Coast Grove.

"Make it worth a read,"  she stated with her well known poker face.

All I could hear are the hissed of my classmates. Gusto ko tuloy matawa...as expected. It's not new that most of students hate essay and writing especially if the teacher is kinda perfectionist and has a high expectation towards her students' performance.

Yeah, we all have different likes and hates. As for me, I can do writing and solving though I prefer writing more. Mas nailalabas ko kase doon ang mga gusto kong sabihin or mga obserbasyon na hindi ko basta-basta nasasabi verbally.

Hindi kase ganun kadali magsabi ng opinyon lalo na kung bata ka. Because most of the people in the society underestimates our generation that's why we became less heard and hesitant in voicing out . I'm afraid that most might just let it happen everytime.

Mabilis natapos ang klase kaya naman inayos ko na ang aking mga gamit para makapunta na sa cafeteria. I'm sure my friends are already there.

"The hell!" may bigla kaseng bumato saakin ng ballpen, paglingon ko tumama pa saakin ang papel.

What the hell is the problem of this man?
"Wala ka ba talagang magawa sa buhay mo Arevalo?" I said with a monotone voice...kahit gusto ko na talaga siyang sigawan.

"HAHAHAHA eto naman! para kang pinaglihi kay squidward lagi kang high blood," biro nya na hindi naman nakakatawa.

"Ikaw kamukha mo si squidward," banat ko pabalik.

I was about to punch him but he quickly got his bag and run towards the door. I didn't bother to chase him, I'm sure I'll get even soon.

That's Blake Tristan Arevalo, one of my guy friend...hindi ko nga alam kung bakit.  He holds the title of being the most annoying person in my life, I really pity his siblings. Sigurado ako na sakit sa ulo ang dala niya....especially to his parents.
