CHAPTER III - GETTING TO KNOW
Tres Pov
Day passed, and wala namang masyadong importanteng nangyari. Nagsimula nang normal ang klase sa buong University. In all naging smooth naman ang sitwasyon, even sa dorm.
Sa buong nagdaang mga araw, kaming lima lang ang magkakasama. Kahit anino ng isa naming kadorm na 'president daw' ng student council ay wala.
I don't know why? But as what Knight said, 'I think, he stayed at his house, cause he is a council president after all' sabagay most of the leader, ang rules ng para sa constituents nya ay hindi nya sinusunod.
Sa lima kong naging kasama, wala namang naging problema para sakin kasi madalang kaming magkita kita talaga. Hindi kasi kami sabay sabay kumain, dahil wala pa kaming assigned tasks at wala pa miski isa ang naggagalaw ng mga stocks na nakalagay sa kusina. Most of the time rin, lagi rin akong nasa kwarto at mas pinipiling magbasa at mag-aral.
Pero ngayon, dahil Sunday we are obliged to attend meeting organized by Jamie. This meeting is for dividing tasks ng mga gawain sa dorm.
She woke me up so early in the morning, naisip ko nga meron pala akong human alarm clock dito. Gusto ko nga talagang dapat tumanggi, pero as a part of the group, tulad nga ng sinabi ko, obliged ako.
We are here seated at our kitchen table. Si Jamie ang nasa seat ng 'padre de pamilya' where she is holding a whiteboard w/ marker. Her face is full of seriousness.
As I looked at her, naalala ko na naman yong sitwasyon na nasaksihan nila ni Calvin. Where Patricia gave her hottest welcome gift for me. I actually like how Calvin and Jamie handled the situation. I never heard any question and curiousity from them. I think, they thought the confrontation as a sensitive thing.
However, tuwing naiisip ko ang ginawang aksyon ni Patricia, hindi ko maiwasang matawa.
Bakit ba sya galit na galit sa akin? What did I do wrong? Lumayo at nanahimik na nga lang ako, pero what kind of action she did. Is this the best way of expressing gratitude, to someone who gave way? For me, I don't think so.
"So, tulad nga ng sinasabi ko, dapat meron tayong assigned tasks, gets nyo ba yon?' natigil ako sa pagmumuni-muni when I heard Jamie's high pitch voice.
" Just straight to the point, Jamie ", komento ni Calvin na halatang halata ang irita sa pagmumukha.
Tiningnan ito ng masama ni Jamie, while the three of us are watching them.
"okaay, let me do the honor. Walang sisihan ha sa mga tasks. So, I, Jamie will be the cook in the morning and afternoon, everyday yon I love cooking so it's okay with me, basta walang pagbabago sa schedule ko, if there is magsasabi naman agad ako sainyo" I think Jamie is good, I know how to cook naman but I am not a morning person, so it will be fine with me.
"For the cleaning naman, I hope Knight and Given will do it together. Can the both of you can do it? Can't you?"
"No way, highway Jamie-chi" Given rolled her eyes after glancing at Knight.
"Wow, Choosy ka pa ha. The feeling is mutual, I don't want to be with you too" I depensa ni Knight.
"No buts and quarrels. That's my final decision, you give me right so, walang reklamo dapat. Okay?"
"So for the next task, I think Calvin could love this. Great Calvin Oh, the Great dishwasher, Isn't it great?" napapahalakhak si Jamie sa kanyang sinabi.

The Search
Random"How can I find the truth?" " Who is the real? Who is the impostor?" "Who is behind these crimes?" "Where is the path of truth and realm?" These questions are just only the few that stayed in my mind for almost two years. And right now, I'm coming...
