NERD ACADEMY

PROLOGUE

I'm walking towards the mirror, and after split of seconds I saw a gorgeous and ravishing lady standing from there.

With her porcelain skin, black hair na bagsak at talagang napakakintab. Thin but curvy eyelashes, down to her sharp yet small nose like a foreign girl, and her glossy lips with a natural color of red, makes her even more splendid than everybody else. Idagdag mo pa ang suot niya ngayong fitted black overall suit na about hanggang leeg and her leather boots na nagkukulay diamond black lalo na kapag nasisinagan ng liwanag. Well kung titingnan mo siya sa kabuhuan, you can say that she's the meaning of 'perfection'.

Bumalik ang tingin ko sa taas at sinalubong ang kaniyang tingin, and I could see the admiration in her eyes. Naramdaman ko nalang na tumaas ang gilid ng labi ko, forming a smirk, ngunit nagulat ako nang iyon din ang ginawa ng babae sa loob ng salamin. And shit!? I almost forgot that I'm staring with my own reflection!?

"Katara we're done!! Let's go now, the boys are waiting!!" sigaw ni Reira sakin.

"Coming!!" sagot ko nalang at hinagilap ang eyeglasses na pangunahing simbolo namin. Good thing at nasa bedside table lang, kaya agad ko na iyong isinuot at saka muling nagtungo sa harap ng salamin.

There I saw the same lady I was admiring- that happened to be myself. The only difference is that I am wearing an eyeglasses right now, unlike before.

Biglang kumislap ang salaming suot ko, and I already knew what's the meaning of that. Naalala ko tuloy ang isinagot ko sa dati kong teacher...

'Secrets are the only weapons, ordinary people like us can have.'

But in my case, I couldn't consider myself normal. Because the truth is, I AM BEYOND NORMAL.

Napabuntong-hininga nalang ako at saka naglakad palabas ng kwarto. Tumambad naman sa akin ang pagmumukha ng dalawa kong room mates, kaya sabay-sabay na kaming lumabas ng main door at walang ingay na naglakad pababa.

Indeed, the world is full of secrets. And admit it or not, each and everyone of us has a secret. We're secretive in every way we can be and as for me, this is my dirty little secret...

"Detective Katara, reporting!!"
