"Do you smoke?" natatawang tanong niya sa akin kahit alam niyang hindi. Pagilid ko siyang sinulyapan nang ilabas niya ang sigarilyo at mabilis na sinindihan sa harapan ko. Sinasadya niya ito para ipakita sa akin na walang kahit sino ang magbabawal sa kanya sa school na ito. Agaw pansin ang mga biloy niya na lumabas nang hithitin niya ang dulo ng sigarilyo. Kahit nagsasalita, kumakain, o kahit kaonting kibot lang ng labi niya'y lumalabas iyon. Gamit ang mga daliri'y sinuklay niya papunta sa likod ang pawisan niyang buhok. Ang manipis na gintong kwintas niya'y kumikinang sa tirik na araw. Nagbuntong hininga ako at pilit pinapakalma ang sarili. I don't like people breaking school rules that's why I hate him. He's the best example of bad boy. A rebel. He's teaching other students to do wrong. "Breaking a few rules won't hurt your grades, Miss. If you want to taste, I can give you some," tukoy niya sa sigarilyo na wala akong balak tikman. Warning: Read At Your Own Risk! EXPLICIT AND MATURE CONTENT❗❗❗ Series 7 of 8

Xiara Wriella Clemente and Simon Chromewell's Story "S-sir, uuwi na nga po pala ako. Kung may ipapagawa pa po kayo eh tatapusin ko na lang po bukas. Ingat po." tumalikod na ako pakasabi ko non pero napasinghap ako ng maramdaman ko ang mga bisig niya sa beywang ko at idinantay ang noo niya sa balikat ko. Napahawak naman ako sa aking dibdib dahil pakiramdam ko, ano mang oras ay lalabas na ang puso ko sa sobrang kaba. Naramdaman ko na lang na iniharap niya ako sa kanya at sumubsob sa leeg ko. Ramdam ko tuloy ang hininga niya roon na nakapagbibigay ng kakaibang init sa katawan ko. Hindi pwede na lagi na lang ganito. Sapat na ang mga araw na pagpapakagaga ako. Ayoko na maging marupok pagdating sa kanya. "S-sir.. U-uuwi na po kasi ako eh.." naiilang na wika ko kaya lalo lamang ako nitong hinapit. Ayoko talaga ng nararamdaman ko. "I want you to stay with me, Xiara. I need you." madamdaming pahayag nito na akala mo ay isang musmos na nawalan ng candy. Napabuntong hininga ako. Pang ilang beses na nga ba ito sa buong araw? Hindi ko siya matiis pero ayoko na. Ayaw ko na magpakatanga eh. Sapat na masaktan ako sa huling mga sandali dahil baka wala ng matira sa akin. "Pasensya na po pero kailangan ko na pong umalis." mahinang sambit ko at pwersahang kumawala sa kanya. Written by: sachtych
