School Bukol
Jay-jay's POV
I don't want to go to school! I know my vacation is already about 3 days long. That's why I still don't feel like going. Should I make an excuse letter? I put 'extended hospitalization'. Will they accept that? That's why they might call Kuya Angelo. That's right! I'm going back to the hospital for sure. I might get my ears cut off by his spanking. If he was spanking, he would probably hit my ass. Good thing he didn't. I heard a bang on my bedroom door. The bang that felt like the door was going to break. Of course I knew who it was. Flash! There's even a ï¬re. "You're so slow!" He shouted. "Yes! Are you the one who opens the school and you always have to be early?!" I answered annoyed. Suddenly the door opened and Horoscope came in. It wasn't locked. "What? Are you saying something?" He asked and I immediately grabbed my bag. "Here we go. Let's leave. We should always be early at school so that there are more people. Let's be most factual." I said as I walked. I knew he was following because I could feel his evil gaze on me. He was probably already thinking about how to kill me. "Factual? Maybe punctual." Haha, I was wrong. "Yes, I am. We're a bit stupid in that part." I said while putting my hand on my head. "You're just really stupid." He replied and I simply scolded him. The smart one spoke. I felt so ashamed of him. Who the hell kidnapped someone looking for a cellphone? Right? It's also stupid! A man was kidnapped. Because his brain is full of Ella. We arrived at the garage and I just realized that his car had already gone home. It's a good thing he knew how to go home. I hope not all of them. Because a car that knows how to go home on its own is scary. "Can I make a request?" I asked while my brother was busy driving. "What?" "I'm not going in, don't tell Kuya Angelo." Just try. Maybe he'll get in. "Okay." He said lifelessly. "Weh?" It didn't seem true. "Don't go in. I won't tell Kuya." I clapped my hands in joy. My ears almost clapped as well. My smile gradually widened. "I'll just text you." He added, making my shoulders slump and my smile shrink. It was really nice talking to him. He would feel good about taking me back to the hospital. I could have slapped him here and then told him that his enemies had done something. When asked who, I would just answer with the help of the tukmols and always hungry. Jay-jay gang and corporation. I was forced to remain silent and lean my back. My brother has no company. It's not that I'm lazy to study, but that's one of the reasonsâ€"Given that, it's part of student life, right?â€"But the real reason is that the school might cancel classes because the real goddess has entered. Charot. I feel like I was injected with the wrong medicine at the hospital. I'm really ashamed of the Ulopongs. The way I behaved when their King needed help. After he saved me, I just pushed him away when he needed it. I was so useless at that part. Aries' car stopped in the parking lot and I almost tied the seatbelt around my neck just so he wouldn't let me out. "I'll stay here." I begged. "Get out." There was a threat in his voice. "Later." "I'll call Kuya." There you go! I went out before him. I reluctantly closed the door. "Don't worry! Taurus didn't greet you!" I shouted and quickly walked away. I looked up at the large building in front of me before ï¬nally walking inside. Why don't I seem happy that we're in the new building? I'm still more interested in our dump-like building. Even though it's full of trash, it's fun. I frowned as I entered the building and students from other sections immediately looked at me. Here's another problem. The enemy has the entire building in tatters, what if they suddenly rush us? We help each other . I continued up the stairs to our room floor. I still can't get rid of the thought that they might be making fun of us, especially now that we're closer to them. Maybe later they'll throw trash at us again. Or maybe while we're walking up the stairs, they'll suddenly push us. Just then, I bumped into two girls from Section B. They were laughing and slightly shaking hands. That was probably their way of pushing me. That push would only get stronger later when they hit me. I'll get ahead of them! I immediately threw both my hands in the air, raising one leg as if to defend myself. "You can't bully me!" I shouted at them. The two were clearly surprised by what I did and moved away from me. They didn't take their eyes off me as they continued to descend the stairs. "Isn't he from Section E?" "Crazy." I heard them say as they hurriedly got away from me. They probably couldn't believe that I had gotten ahead of their plan. Me too! I walked up the stairs again. I was met by another group of students. They were boys who, if I'm not mistaken, were Section D. Real enemies! I immediately punched my ï¬st in the air and kicked them but they couldn't reach them. They were so shocked that some even sat down in shock. The others clung to the one next to them. "What's that?!" One of them said. "You can't do it!" I shouted and was about to kick them but they quickly ran away. They were still going in different directions so they separated. "Is that a problem?!" "They must have gone crazy." "Crazy! Who is that?" They were out of my sight. The other students who saw us immediately left and changed direction. That's good, stay away from me. Because of that, I quietly arrived at our room. They probably thought they were going to do something bad to me. Wais to men, wais! I was about to open the door to our room but I immediately thought twice. What if I'm not welcome anymore? What if they don't accept me anymore because of what I did to their King? What if....haizt! It's up to you. I opened the door. Their behavior has hardly changed every time I enter. They're making a fuss, chatting and arguing. I don't want to step inside, I have no choice. I expected them to ignore me or hear hurtful words. But as I stepped insideâ€". "Good morning Jay." Denzel greeted me while chatting with Josh who nodded in greeting. "G-good morning." I didn't have many answers. They greeted me as if nothing had happened. Or maybe it was just them? Maybe some of them are still mad at me. "Hey Jay." Drew greeted as he walked closer to his seat. "Hello Jay!" Eren greeted a little too loudly so the others looked at me and waved. I raised my hand a few times to wave too. "Jay-jay!" Ci greeted me happily and smiled with her gums showing. I immediately walked over to my seat and put down my bag. "Why do you look like that?" She asked. She must have sensed that I was uneasy. "W-aren't they mad at me?" She shook her head. "No. Why would they be mad?" "Right? Y-what I said to Keifer?" She stared at me for a moment as if trying to remember what happened . She quickly nodded as she ï¬nally remembered. "Is that it? That's okay, they understand. Yuri explained that you're afraid of blood that's why you reacted like that." I breathed a sigh of relief. I thought they were mad at me because of that. I was knocked to my table. These past few days have been so tiring. But thinking is even more tiring, especially when you don't have anything to think about. It must be painful. I looked at Ci-N who was busy with the little toys on her table. I wanted to ask her if she had any news about their King. I wanted to message her but I didn't know what to say . Besides, I was so desperate to do that. I took a deep breath but my thoughts were interrupted when a peanut shell spilled on my table. I picked it up and looked at it. I immediately looked for where it came from and saw Kit eating something. Mayo was next to her with her back to me. I approached them and returned the peanut shell. Kit smiled at me. "Do you want it, Jay?" Kit offered. "Don't give it to me." Mayo frowned and pushed the bag of peanuts away. "Don't! Put it in your lungs!" I said annoyed. Kit quickly shot her. "You have no right to be stingy. I brought it with me." I laughed at him to his face. It was obvious that the idiot â€"gagaâ€"gago â€"whatever he was! I sat on the chair in front of Kit. I also took peanuts and peeled them . I ï¬rst saved them in a corner and when I had enough, I would eat them. The peel-eat-peel-eat thing was tiring. I prefer the peel- save-peel-save-eat thing. "What were you thinking when you brought this?" I said and continued peeling them. "He likes peanuts." Mayo said and smiled foolishly. "But he really likes hotdogs more." Kit quickly threw out his oot to kick him. I just looked at them because I didn't understand why the hotdog got involved in the peanut conversation. "It hurts." Mayo complained while rubbing the side that Kit had hit. "Get out of here. I'll hurt you." He threatened. "Why are you making me leave?" "Who's the idiot here?" Mayo suddenly pointed at me. "Why me?" I complained. "Do you want a flashback?" He asked sarcastically. "Stop it! It's over. You got your revenge, right? You slapped him." Kit said. "That's not enough. You should be a couple and give each other slaps." He replied, stopping me. "You still can't move on? I kidnapped you and you saved me and that's still your issue?" I asked seriously. "Mayo, stop it." David interrupted, who was listening to us. He was awake. I thought he was asleep. The others close to us looked up because of what David said. Even Ci-N stopped playing and looked at us. "Can you blame me? What happened was a big problem for us." Mayo said. "Isn't it me or not? Maybe you're forgetting that I was hurt too. It's too much because you've been so mean to me." "He should be the one to slap you. Because of your stupidity towards him." Kit interrupted. He looked away but David greeted him with a threatening look. He immediately turned back to me. He took a deep breath before bringing his cheek closer to mine. "Oh there you go! Slap me! Retaliate." He said while pointing at my cheek. I raised my palm but instead of slapping, I just patted him. "That's okay. Don't think about it. I deserve it." I said and smiled at him sparingly. I could see his gaze softening towards me. I knew Mayo was a jerk but she was also one of the ones who defended me before. Even though we used to ï¬ght a lot. Kapour! "If I had only really thought about what I was saying. Maybe you wouldn't have fought." I said and Kit quickly smiled at me. "But we'll probably ï¬ght in the end when they ï¬nd out the truth. It's good for me." "Okay? No more slapping?" Mayo said. "I'll just slap." Ci-N suddenly said who was in front of us. Before Mayo could answer, Ci's palm hit her in the face. She was still very happy as she clapped her hands away after the person in front of her was slapped. In shock, none of us could speak. I also noticed that the Ulopong lintiks had already formed a line. "Slap!" "Me too! Me too!" "Be strong!" "You idiotsâ€"!" Mayo couldn't continue because someone slapped her again. Mayo tried to ï¬ght back but she received another slap . Sometimes she would actually hit her in the face and also on the orehead or chest. The Ulopongs were very happy. After the slap, Mayo's head fell limply onto the table. "It hurts..." She said crying while facing Kit. "Rub it. It really hurts." The lintik was literally in tears. Kit didn't pay any attention to her. This one still continued to peel and eat the peanuts. I elbowed her and pointed at Mayo. "Rub her face." I said. Kit frowned. "Don't touch my face." Mayo said. "Down thereâ€"." Mayo threw herself. Literally. She almost hit the other table. Kit kicked her hard to silence her. But I didn't hear the last thing she said so I ignored her . I just continued what I was doing but I stopped when I noticed that the peanuts I was saving were gone. I immediately looked at the floor because I might have accidentally spilled them but they weren't there. It was clean as if it had been vacuumed. "Did you see what I saved?" I asked Kit but she just shook her head. "It's not on the floor?" She asked me back. "Nothing." I answered and was about to ask Mayo who was currently shaking her clothes but she had only been looking at Kit earlier. Damn! I was so confused! "Who took my peanuts here?!" I asked annoyed. The people laughed. They thought I was joking. I was serious! I saved those peanuts! "Who took it?! Admit it!" The sly Ulopongs laughed even more. "Who's the peanut slinger there?" "Here's Eren!" "I'm not taking any peanuts!" "Shut up! I'm saving them!" "Bring out Jay-jay's peanuts!" Mayo said but was interrupted by loud laughter. "I guess they should be Kit's peanuts. They really belong to Kit. Jay-jay just asked for them." The shameless ones laughed one after another. "Bring out Kit's peanuts." Eren said and laughed so hard. "Kit has peanuts. You idiot!" These guys are so funny! The fools couldn't stop laughing. I saw David blushing as he looked at me. He quickly pecked me when he noticed I was looking at him. Before I could even curse loudly, Sir Alvin arrived and greeted us with a smile. I returned to my place with a frown. My savings were wasted for nothing. "Are you enjoying your new room?" Sir Alvin asked. "I hope so, Sir." "Especially if the air conditioner is on." They almost simultaneously pointed to the large air conditioner in the back. It looked old and not working. That's why I didn't rely on the air conditioner anymore. "Ahh, is that it?" Sir took something from the drawer on his table. He pointed it at the air conditioner and pressed it. The air conditioner turned on and started blowing cold air. We almost said yes at the same time . It was so fresh and we no longer had to put up with the single ceiling fan we had in our room before. "The remote is right there." Ci-N said and I noticed that he was chewing something. I saw him grabbing something rom his polo pocket and putting it straight into his mouth. I watched it closely and my nostrils quickly widened in annoyance. "You took it, you scoundrel!" I said and was about to hit him but he quickly dodged. It turned out that he was the one who took the peanuts I had saved from Kit. Because I just asked for it, Kit still gave it to me. "Just ask." He replied as if begging. He asked, then took it all. "Are you okay?" I said and was about to take what was in his pocket. We all looked at each other as the door opened. Yuri entered with messy hair. His glasses were blurry, one lens was still blurry. His uniform was also wrinkled and out of order. "I-I'm sorry I'm late." He said and bowed to Sir before heading straight to his seat. My eyes followed him. He was the only one this late and yet he was still so neat. When he sat down, he quickly ï¬xed his hair. Our eyes met as he turned to face me. He quickly smiled at me. I didn't hide my concern from him but he assured me that he was okay by smiling sweetly at me. I was forced to face Sir again even though I asked him a lot of questions. "He only did that today." David said without looking at me. I simply nodded because it was true. I couldn't help but think about what happened to him. His mother was very caring and always made sure everything was ï¬ne with him. Often when he came in, his clothes and appearance were neat and tidy, but then his uniform was wrinkled. Did something bad happen? "Is Keifer still here?" Sir suddenly asked, making my heart skip a beat. Tsk! Sir! Don't say bad words! Just his name has this effect on me. This is not good! My heart might suddenly break away from me next time. I don't want to lose heart yet. "Not yet Sir." Felix replied. Sir just nodded while looking at his records. I immediately noticed him glancing at me and flashing a mischievous smile. "It's been a while since you've been back." Sir said weakly. "Ms. Mariano?" Whut? "What? Sir?! Why are you asking me?! I don't know about that guy?! I'm asking him! Maybe the vacation is extended! I don't know! He's just there! He's a jerk! That's funny, there's no pest! Maybe there's a woman there that's why he can't leave! He's probably happier there! We're happy here too! Happy-happy! They're James Bond's troops!" I said and caught my breath. I scratched my head. I guess my answer was OA. "Let's leave it alone, maybe he's just resting. There's somethingâ€"in whatâ€"backâ€"there's somethingâ€"." I tried to point to my back but I couldn't say directly that he was shot. He was probably going to ask more questions. It's hard to explain. I noticed the soft laughter of the Ulopongs and Sir Alvin. I got angry. The many things I said had nothing to do with what Sir was asking. What was Sir asking again? "What was that again, Sir?" I asked while scratching my head. "I was going to ask if you were okay. You just got out of the hospital, right ?" He asked with a teasing smile. I had something else on my mind. I thought he was going to ask about Keifer. "Okay. Alive, alive, you can kick." I heard the lukos laughing again. I slightly turned to the rest of them. I heard Felix cough but there was a word that I immediately understood. "Miss *cough* he's *cough*!" I immediately looked at him with a bad look but he only answered me with a wide smile . You fools, you fools! "I didn't miss him!" I defended myself. "We didn't say it was you." Felix answered me laughing . "You fools! I know!" Rory shouted and they immediately started shouting. "You guys are fucking idiots!" I said while I widened my eyes at them. They laughed even more and shouted. I looked at David to ask for help but he was also laughing at these Ulopongs. "He's just hungry, Jay." Eman said so I looked at him. "Hungry for Keifer's love." He added and these idiots completely lost their minds. You idiots! Before I could get too annoyed with what they were saying, I simply looked at Yuri. I couldn't help but think about him. But he didn't seem affected. It was obvious that he was deep in thought. Besides, he was so stupid that he didn't notice that his glasses had fallen. "That's it. Let's start." Sir said so I was forced to look ahead. I wanted to look at Yuri. I wanted to approach him and ï¬nd out if he was okay. +
