FRIENDS

"I vote for" he paused.

Giving me a lot of nervousness

"Iyah" he continued.

I'm relieved! He voted for me! I'm so happy, as far as I know, I really don't want to be one of our classroom officers but right now, I feel so proud and flattered that they voted for me.

"Okay so, I guess we already know who is our treasurer class," Ms. said.

We continue voting and sadly, Nami didn't win any position, I know she's sad but I also see that she is not in a good mood so I guess, I will just wait for her to be okay..

President: Gabby

Vice-president: CJ

After our English class with Ms. Cath, our next class is ESP with Ms. Nicole.

She taught us about "How to manage and control ourselves.

After her class is RECESS TIME!!

As Ms. left I look at Nami and asked her to eat with me but she rejected me right away and left. Looks like I'll be eating alone. #Alone.

I fixed my things, my face (just a little bit of baby powder hehe), and about to leave when someone called me.

"Iyah!"

I looked at him and saw that its...

"Gabby, why?" I asked.

"Are you eating alone?" he asked.

"Yeah, alone," I answered.

"Would you like to join us?" asking me

"Us? who?" I asked.

"boys" he shortly said.

"So? you want to join us?" he added.

"Maybe next time, they might not like me to eat with," I said with a smile.

"C'mon! We are not like that" he told me.

"I'm really okay. Don't worry Gabby" I assured him.

"Are you sure?" he asked. making it sure.

I nodded and left because if I stay there longer I may not say no..#Marupok (someone that easily gets giddy)

I'm already here in the cafeteria, waiting for my order. Like before I just ordered set A.

As I get my order and searching for a vacant table, all I know is I'm not okay with this, eating alone or just basically being alone huhu... Can I just go to Gabby and tell him that I regret rejecting his offer? Help!

When I saw a vacant seat, I hurriedly go there and put my tray of food on the table. I was about to eat when someone sits and place a tray in the table..

"Can I join you?" he asked.

I know that voice!! I look up and gave him a smile.

"Of course! Why not?" I replied.

"I just thought that you might not like eating with me" he uncertainly said.

"What? You know, next time you don't need to ask me. Just sit and eat with.. Don't need to have permission.. We're friends!" I happily said.

He just looked at me, seems like he's shocked.

Am I wrong?

"Hey! Am I wrong?" I asked.

"Aren't we friends?" I added.

"No! I mean yes!! We are friends" he said.

"Then why you looked so shocked?" I asked him as I eat my food.

"I just shocked that you said that we are already friends' he said.

I raised my eyebrows and got confused, so he doesn't want me to be his friend?

"Wait, let me rephrase that, I just surprised that you considered me as your friend even though we are still not that close" he explained.

"So being a friend to considering friend is based on how close you are to each other?" asking him sarcastically.

"I never said that!" he defended himself.

We laugh at each other.

"Wait Gabby, is it okay for your friends to be here?" asking him curiously.

"Yeah, they are absolutely fine with it, and also since, we are friends stop calling me Gabby" he replied.

"Then what should I call you?"

"Call me Gab" he answered.

"What? You just removed the 2 letters, thus it even sounds different?" I joked.

"Yeah! Listen Gabby-Gab, see? It sounds different." he explained.

"What if I don't want to?" I asked him.

"No you need to, that's my way of telling others thatI'm friends with them," he stated.

"Okay, okay," I said while cleaning our table

---------------------

Gab and I are already on our way back to our room when I saw Nami looking at us, she looks so mad and irritated, but I didn't talk to her because I know she won't talk to me and also she walked so fast to our room when she saw me looking at her.

So I just go to our room while talking and laughing with Gab.

When we entered our room all of our classmates were looking at us and whispering something.

"What's going on?" Gab asked Marc.

"Nothing man, they are just surprised to see you with Iyah," Marc said.

"What's wrong with that?" Gab asked them.

"You know, they are just surprised because it just takes a month for Iyah to be close to you," Finn said while teasing us.

"Well, I was actually the one who talked to her first and It's not a big deal, and also she is also your friend guys," Gab told them.

"So you vote for her because she's your friend?" Rica asked him.

"Yeah, wait. You guys voted her because you think she is suitable for the position right?" Gab asked them.

They nodded.

"Then what's the problem here?" he asked confusingly.

"Nothing! We are just making sure of things, who knows you guys are more than friends" joy teasing said.

"Well if I'm right with what you guys are thinking, don't need to worry about that.. Gab and I are just friends, nothing more, and also, it's our first year in high school so I'm not really focusing on that stuff," I assured them.

"Okay if you say so Iyah, we believe you because we trust you more than we trust Gabby.." Ira said while laughing at Gab.

"Gab are you okay? You are not about to cry right?" Nash teased him.

"Does it hurt? being friend-zoned I mean?" Benj added while the boys are laughing.

"What?what you guys mean? you guys are crazy!" Gab shouted at them.

"So you want us to tell them what you told us??" James said, trying to pissed Gab.

"What did I tell you guys?" he said, challenging his friends.

"Okay! Where's Cj? He needs to tell us about it!" Robert said while looking for CJ in our room.

"What? NO!! It's our secret!! " Gab hurriedly said.

"See?" Kevin.

I left them teasing each other, I go to my chair and I saw Nami looking at the bys without having any emotions.

"Nami are you okay?" I asked her.

But she didn't reply and left.

"So she's still not in the mood" I whispered.

"You don't need to worry or waste your time with her, she will just pull you down! she's just faking it! believe us Iyah!" Sandra told me.

I smiled at her but I didn't believe what she said, Nami was the one who said that we are friends and I don't think she will do that to me.

"Finally he's here!"Kevin excitedly said.

"What?? Go CJ! Don't believe them!" Gab told CJ.

He looked very surprised at what he is seeing right now.

"What happened folks?" he asked them.

"CJ do you remember what Gab told us about Iyah?" Ryan asked him.

About me?? What about me?? Tell it now!! I'm curious!!

"Yeah, I remember that. What about that?" he answered.

"Can you tell us about it?" Benj asked him.

The other boys including Mikel are holding and stopping Gabby to say or do anything.. Looks like they Gab can't do anything to stop his friends..

All of us are waiting for CJ, all of us seems curious and excited about it. Don't be such a cliffhanger CJ!! Tell us already!!

He looked at me and said. "No"

We furrowed our forehead as he added. "Since when you guys started to like gossips and make of others?"

"Well, bro, Gab keeps saying that he never ever told us about Iyah, and we want you to say it our loving classmates," James said while laughing.

"Well, bro, I don't want to.. Asked Gabby himself and don't drag me and others to your childish things." He said after looking at me.

"Wait, it's not like you don't want to tell it because you like Iyah?" Mikel said, teasing him.

Wait, what??

"No, it's not like that.. I'm not just fond of saying a secret to others and as far as I know we have a bro code right bros?" he explained.

"You know what, you guys are too loud, and you all sound like a girl.. To end this topic just answer this okay?' Samantha boredly said.

Nami entered our classroom and we all looked at her.

Samantha was about to say something when Sandra stopped her by asking..

"Why did you vote for Iyah instead of Nami?" she asked.

"Wait, that is not what I was about to ask!" Samantha shouted at Sandra.

"Shut up! rich girl.. Just answer it CJ" Nicole said.

"Well, I think Iyah is much more suitable for the position of treasurer," he answered.

"So you think Iyah is more trustworthy than Nami?" Rica asked him.

I starting not to be comfortable with our topic.

"I never said that It's just you guys who think about that." he defended himself.

Nami sat at her chair beside me and just looked at her arm desk without looking at anyone.

"Are you guys friends?" Samantha curiously asked us.

"I finally asked him about it," Samantha added.

" Wait I remember that last night when I was about to add Iyah on Facebook, I saw that you guys are already friends, so care to explain it?" Benj stated.

They stopped holding Gab and started teasing us and seems to wait for our answer.

Wait, sorry I forget to say that CJ added me on Facebook the other night, but no more happen if you guys are wondering.. Peace yow!

"Ummm" I was about to explain when all of them looked at me and CJ said..

"We are just friends since when being friends on Facebook became a big issue?" he stated.

"We never said that!" Mae said.

"So who added first Iyah?" Samantha asked me.

"It's actua-"

"It's me"
