CHAPTER 4

Chapter 4: FELL

Dinala ako ng mga paa ko papunta sa loob ng opisina ni Nyx. Naabutan ko siyang nakaupo sa swivel chair niya na parang may binabasang mga papers or something.

"You didn't know how to knock miss Wazu?" he asked when he saw me standing in front of him.

"I don't waste my time knocking on your dusty door." I said directly and sit on the chair im front of his table.

"Then I'll ask the maintenance to wipe the dust every hour then?"

"No need." walang ganang sagot ko na nagpangisi sa kanya.

"Well, that's good because I don't want to disturb the maintenance."

"I want you to wipe the dust off using your coat. It's your office and it's your responsibility to clean your place. I don't care if the university owner paid them for giving service here."

He smiled playfully but as what I can see, he was being insulted by what I just said.

"I'm your professor miss Wazu, you better respect me."

"What do you want to discuss?" I asked pretending that I didn't hear what he just said.

"Regarding your quizzes. You are always perfect but why didn't you make it today?" he asked.

I stared at him intently, "what's wrong with one mistake? Am I not allow to missed one? It's not a big deal for me. Besides, being on top of the class makes me feel bored and maybe you might think that I am trying to impress you."

Napanga-nga siya sa sinabi ko kaya tumayo na ako tsaka sinuksok sa bulsa ng blazer ang mga kamay.

"If you have nothing to say then, I will leave. Please don't use my score as an excuse to see me next time. I'm feeling sick whenever you're in my sight." I added and walk out of his office.

Diretso akong naglakad. Mabuti nalang nga anakasa ground floor lang ang opisina ni Nyx kaya hindi naman masyadong nakakapagod.

"Hey Vhastiana, are you going home now?" my classmate asked.

I crossed paths with him while I am walking to parking lot.

"Why? What favor do you want me to do Jase?" diretso kong tanong.

Bigla niyang hinagis sa akin ang isang brown folder kaya agad ko itong sinalo.

"You can give it to me in a proper way, you don't have to throw something otherwise I'll slap what you thrown on your face." ani ko sabay talikod.

"Professor Aban is in the gymnasuim. Thank you for doing my favor." sigaw niya sabay halakhak.

He is the class monitor in our class. Masyado siyang busy dahil kabilang siya sa dance troupe ng university.

Naglakad ako papasok sa gym at kaagad na bumungad sa akin ang mga kalalakihan na kasalukuyang nag-uusap sa gitna ng court. Nakita ko si Prof. Aban na kinakausap ang coach ng basketball team kaya pinili ko nalang umupo sa bleacher.

"Kung nais ninyong makasali sa basketball team, kailangan ninyong ibenta ang sarili ninyo sa basketball captain dahil sigurado akong kapag ako ang pumili may posibilidad na magkakagulo lang ang team." problemadong wika ng coach.

"Paano namin ibebenta coach? Hindi naman kami chikababes at mas lalong hindi namin ibebenta ang sarilu namin. Hindi kami papatol sa kapwa lalaki! Kadiri!" ani ng isa.
