09: MCT AND THE KEY

Mabibilis ang hakbang ko sa hallway. Ni-hindi ko nga napansin ang mga estudyanteng nakakasalubong ko. Kapag may nabangga ako, wala kong paki. Sorry not sorry. Sila may kasalanan. Hahaharang harang sa daan eh. Kailangan ko lang kasi talaga makarating sa Principal’s office. The half day of our class already ended. Lunch break na. But instead na pumunta sa underground cafeteria with the Deltas, I am here running for my life. Lol.

After I got unconscious yesterday because of that fvcking training, hindi ako nakapunta kay Mrs. Beltran. Paano ba naman kasi ayaw akong paalisin nina Aamie at Creai sa clinic dahil hindi pa raw ako okay.

“Stay here.” Creai said.

“If you want to stay here, then please stay. ‘Wag mo ko idamay dahil gusto ko ng lumabas.” Aakmang tatayo na ko sa hospital bed nang tinulak ako pahiga ni Aamie.

“MAGPAHINGA KA!” I blinked twice—thrice. Did she just… shout at me? The fvck! “Hihiga ka lang diyan hanggang magdinner! Higa! ‘Wag kang aalis diyan!”

I sighed defeated. I rolled my eyes at them. They’re fvcking serious when they say that they will accompany me here. Pagkagising na pagkagising ko, mukha nilang dalawa nakita ko.

But thanks to Jill! He came to save me from those girls. But the thought of saving me sounds dull. Well, I am an evil that can’t be save. Pero buti na lang talaga at dumating siya. Sinabihan raw kasi siya ng isa sa mga clinic staffs na pwede na kong lumabas. Kaso nga lang yung dalawa, laging nakabuntot sakin. Kainis.

Hindi ko na namalayan na nasa tapat na ko ng Principal’s office. Tinukod ko ang aking mga kamay sa tuhod habang naghahabol ng hininga. Why am I even running? Para namang may hahabol sakin at sasakmalin ako. Tsk.

Nang makabawi na ko sa hangin, I stood in front of the door. Pinakiramdaman ko muna kung may tao sa loob. And I can feel the presence of the two persons inside. How sorry. I need to barge in. Without thinking, I suddenly kicked the ass of the door. It was really hard that it made a loud impact and the door almost flew from it. I saw Mrs. Beltran’s reaction; she was shocked on what I’ve do. Together with a teacher in front of her. They were shocked.

“Well, namiss ko kasi manipa ng pinto. So if you don’t mind…” Agap na paliwanag ko. Wait, why am I even explaining? Lol. Umupo ako sa tapat ng table ni Mrs. Beltran at sa harap ko naman yung gurong kausap niya.

I saw how this man snickered on me. I just rose my brow. I don’t care if he’s a teacher, the thing is… I don’t know him, and he doesn’t deserve the word respect. Well, based on his looks, I can judge that he’s like a villain on some stories. His firm body, his evil-like face, his presence. Shouting all his perfectness and the thought that he must be the protagonist in his own story but turns out as an antagonist. Iniwas ko na lang yung tingin ko sa kanya.

“So… I need to go now, Mrs. Beltran. I’ll inform you immediately if I got something.” The man said. Sinundan ko lang siya ng tingin hanggang sa makalabas na siya ng tuluyan sa office.

But before he totally exited the door, I saw a strange mark on his left wrist. I don’t know what mark is that pero parang nakita ko na iyon dati. Hindi ko lang alam kung saan. But it seems familiar. I just shrugged and looked at Mrs. Beltran, staring at me. Well, mukhang badtrip siya ngayon. Kung bukas ko na lang kaya sabihin ang pakay ko? Baka pagbuntungan pa ko ng galit nito.

But no! I want to leave this school! Sooner or later baka matuluyan na kong mabaliw. I can’t digest what’s happening anymore. I can’t handle it. For fvcking sake! I want peace not this!

“What do you want?”

“Uhm… I want to… leave this school.” Without hesitation, I said.
