Reycepaz's Reverie (Completed)

Chapter 12: Gift

Reycepaz's Pov

I entered the classroom early and guess what? Nobody's here, not even a shadow of my student is here. Of course, what can I expect? It's still dawn in the morning, and whose child would come to school in advance?

I set foot in ahead of time, because I still have a lot of paperwork to do—as always. And I really expect a student to come in early to help me.

The twin sun had already risen and the ones I was waiting for finally arrived, but unfortunately they were in a hurry and put their bags and belongings on their chair and greeted me before leaving, they also wear their PE uniform.

That's the cue that I should stop expecting help from them, besides they have their physical education subject and I know they are really exhausted after that.

As i kneel my head towards the table and continued what i was doing, a frigid voice intersects in my left side of ear, that i could not even linguin because i was focused on taking care of the papers that must be passed later. Mahirap na kapag mapagalitan ka ng itaas.

"Sir, do you need help?" Asked by the chill voice comes from a woman.

"Uhm—no thanks. You still have your P.E subject" I answered.

"Sir, it's okay because we can excuse ourselves" she insisted.

"No, my dear. Your P.E is more important than this. Sige na at baka malate ka pa at mapagalitan ka ng guro niyo. Thank you by the way" I said before she bid goodbye.

To all intents and purposes, I really want the help of whoever that woman was, but their physical education even if it's not a major subject, it is still more important than anything and worst, their P.E teacher is very terrible. She's like the antagonist in every Disney Princess, I don't know why that stupid octopus woman becomes their physical and education professor.

I might be the one to blame if I'm going to borrow even one of my students in his period.

However, what keeps bothering me are those voices that will never fade from my head, seems it's comforting to listen to. I really wonder who she was.

I sat for a long moment and finally finished the endless paperwork. I hurriedly brought and submitted them to the office. What's even tiring is that, I have to separate it from their designated portfolio.

I didn't bother to enter and teach the other section and just gave them a task and activities, since I don't have a space—i mean I'm very busy.

Anyway, I really thought I would never see Carlo's face again. Gladly she's present today and she already removed the interfering handkerchief in his hand.

What used to look unpaintable sadness in her face is now smiling buoyantly.

No words I can explain how thrilled I am seeing them happy.

I finally finished separating the papers and putting them in their respective portfolios. After that, I did not hesitate and immediately returned to the room.

As I walked down the hallway back to my room I was surprised to see a bunch of students stumbling over the door of my classroom and when I entered to see what they were up to, I suddenly gasped for what I saw.

My jaw ultimately dropped when I saw the human sized anime character Totoro, leaning on the chair I was sitting on earlier.

Ang kaninang lamesang puno ng nakatambak na papelis ay napalitan din ng tatlong cute na bento box. Then there is another pink note that has a message placed on top of it.
