Quiz Partner

Crizila POV

Naglalakad ako ngayon papuntang library to get some books para sa isang course namin.

Yeah it's course instead of subject, kase when we say subject it is only a topic. Lols now you learn something haha

I'm with Irish, busy siya sa phone niya.

"Oh my god Zi, have you already talk to Lorence?"
Patuloy parin kami sa paglalakad and ewan ko ba kung power ba tong si irish at di man lang natatapilok dahil sa di siya nakatingin sa dinadaanan niya.

"Not yet, we never seen each other for a weeks."
Then she look at me and show a post from ig of Samantha.

"Samantha will be back soon, i think this week. What will you do?"
Hindi nako nabigla since sinabi naman yun ni lorence.

"I don't know Irish"
Hindi ko talaga alam ang gagawin ko, like how can i say no to him.

Pagdating namin sa library ay iniwan mo na namin ang gamit namin sa labas, there is plays outside the door of the library where we leave our things. Just like in stores in malls.

Pumasok na kami sa library and find the books that we needed.

Irish was already sitting in one of the table and scanning the book she got.

Nahanap ko na rin yung libro and i'm walking towards her when i've heard some girl talking.

"Have you heard about the yearly quiz queen and king? Ang alam ko next week na yun."
-girl 1

"Yes and sure ako mula sa engineering department nanaman mananalo"
-girl 2

"Oo nga, they always win. Wala namang department ang makakatalo sa kanila, well except sa nursing department."
-girl 1

"Yah right, i remember last year, they almost win against engineering department"
-girl 2

They look at me weirdly, ng mapagtanto kong kanina pa pala ko mukhang chismosang nakatingin sa kanila.

I walk so fast at umupo na sa harap ni Irish.

"Antagal mo Zi, nahanap mo na ba yung books?"
She look at me.
Kakaunti lang ang estudyante dito sa library kase almost 1 pm na, magstart na ang klase ng iba.

"Yah, by the way have you heard about the Yearly Quiz Queen and King?"
I'm little curious and interested to join.
Nachallenge ako dun sa part na they think that only the engineering department can win.

Part ng publication department si Irish kung hindi ko nababalita. So it means she knew some fresh news and happenings sa school.

" Irish, what do you know about the yearly Quiz Queen and King this year?"
Tanong ko kay Irish

"Ay oo nga pala Z, sali ka dun. Yearly yun ginagawa, each department will have 2 representative, ofcourse babae and lalake kase nga yung title na Queen and king. The game is set as a team so it means pag legwak na si girl ganun din yung partner niya. The tournaments is composed of preliminary, quarter finals, semi and final round"
Naeexcite ako bigla, haha

"And last year's champions is from engineering department, actually its their 5th times being king and Queen of that said quiz tournament."
She added.

I'm born competitive that's why i really want to represent my department which is the College of Business Management.

I heard that not even once, CBM department never won on that tournament.

2 pm yung next sched namin ni Irish that's why we just stay here in the library.

"Class i know some of you are already awared of the upcoming event next week, we will gonna choose 2 representative from the class."
According to miss Ramos

"Maam di ba po kahit kailan di naman nanalo ang Department natin dyan, sabi po ng ate ko na dati ding CBM department"
That's one of my classmate.
Napansin ko nga na hindi sila much excited about that thing,as excited pa sila sa fact na walang klase sa buong week next week.

"Kahit daw po Higher section tayo dito sa CBM, wala parin tayo binabat sa ibang department."
I feel like they are looking so down sa aming department.
Napansin ko na tahimik lang si Jayzin na nakaupo and pinaglalaruan ang ballpen niya.

"Not this time, there are two people in this class that can change that thoughts. Ms. Cedes, Mr. Realco you will be the representatives of CBM."
I feel a little bit of shock but i do really want to join tge quiz tournament.

Jayzin looks was not that surprise.

After our class kinausap kami ni Miss Ramos.

"Hindi na kayo dadaan sa competition with in the department from 1st year to 4th year since wala narin namang may lakas ng loob na mag represent. So automatic na na kayo ang representative ng CBM"
Tumango lang ako sa iba pang ipinaliwanag ni Miss Ramos.

Hindi naman masyadong nagkikikibo si Jayzin.
Actually napapansin ko na hindi niya ko masyadong pinapansin ngayong araw, but he is not ignoring me.

Pinaliwanag lang samin ni Mrs. Ramos daw we should maximize the following days for us to review for next week's event.

Pauwi na ako ngayon at nasa sasakyan ako ni Jayzin when my phone rang.
It was Lorence , I answered it while Jayzin is focused on driving.

"Hey,"
Bungad ko sa tawag.

"Baby Zi, today na darating si Samantha. My favor is still okay right?"
Kailangan kong sabihin kay Lorence na I'm not comfortable na with the idea.

Sasagot na sana ako ng magsalita siya ulit.

" I owe you so much for this Zi, hindi ko na alamang gagawin. This is the only thing that I think para bumalik siya sakin. I'm so down mula ng maghiwalay kami ni Sam. Sometimes I smile ut deep within , I'm broke. I think I can't live without her"
Napatigil ako sa sasabahin ko, nakokonsensiya ko. Magpapanggap lang nman kami, sa dami ng favor na ginawa sakin ni Lorence mula pa ng bata pa kami. Ito ba kaisa osangfavor na hinihi,ing niya di ko ma mabigay. Napaka selfish ko naman kung ganun.

Napatingin ako kay Jayzin na tumungin din sakin at nag smile na mukhang excited.

Napabunting hininga nalang ako.

"Of course, no worries. By"
Sagot ko sa kanya at binaba na ang tawag.

"Lorence?"
Tanong niya and I just nodded.

Hindi naman na siya nagtanong pero parang lumungkot bigla ang mata niya.

Pagdating namin sa gate ng bahay ay bumaba nako at derederetyong papasok sana ng biglang.......
