It was 4 in the morning when I woke up. After minutes of staring at the ceiling, I finally decided to get up. I only did some workouts, and then took a rest. Afterwards, I took a bath and fixed myself. Luckily, there were still some good clothes left at my cabinet that I can use. When I was done, I took my bag and then left. Mom's still sleeping so I just left a note for her, I hope she'll be able to read it. "Mom, sorry for leaving without giving you a notice. You're still sleeping so I decided not to wake you up. I'll be heading to school now. Please have some rest, okay? I'll visit again when I'm free. I love you."I walked my way to the village's gate. It was still dark outside, well the sunrise hasn't risen yet. I sitted on the bench at the waiting shed, and waited for a bus to pass by. Hoh, it was so cold outside. I didn't have any jacket with me. I looked at my surroundings, there was no one. I was alone here. Before, I really didn't like the feeling of it. I used to call my
Ezekiel and I arrived at the club room, and thankfully, our other members were already there. I guess it wouldn't take us long to wait for the others and then we'll start ahead. I really hope this will be done immediately. The election's already near and yet, we still haven't finished campaigning. I already missed lots of classes because of it. "Hey, what's with the long face?" Elena asked me. Oh, did I make it obvious to them that I am thinking hard? "Oh, nothing, I'm just thinking about some stuff," I said. "I see, I won't question you anymore. I just hope you're not regretting your decision joining us." Actually, that's the thing I am thinking about, I felt like it was wrong for me to join and now I'm regretting it. I just awkwardly laugh at her. Just like what I thought, it doesn't really take us long to wait for the others. Now, since we're already complete, we immediately continue campaigning. Our goal for today is to at least finish half of the remaining classes. Our day
After eating at the cafeteria, Ezekiel and I decided to walk Aleah back to her classroom since it'll be also on our way to the clubroom. At first, Aleah refused but I really insisted so she just let me. This is the least thing I can do for everything she did for me. If it wasn't for her, I really don't know how I would be able to catch up with my missed classes. "Here you go. Thank you again for the handouts you've given to me. You're my saviour," I said as we reached the door of her classroom. Ah, I miss being in class. "Don't mention it. Anyways, thank you too. Goodluck for the both of you. I hope you guys will be back with positive news.""We surely will be, see you later," Ezekiel said as he waved his hand. And with that, Ezekiel and I left, and we walked to the clubroom. This will be another tiring day, yet fulfilling. As soon as we arrived there, it only took us 10 minutes before we were all gathered and resumed campaigning again. Of course, since I am more close with Ezekie
I just woke up to the irritating sound of my alarm clock. Argh! how I really hate Mondays. I had to wake up so early even though it was against my will. Why do schools start really early in the morning? I need to be at the University even if it's still dawn. How draining it is. Hell, I would love to stay in bed longer. Five minutes had passed, I guess, when I heard an annoying noise once again. That shitty alarm clock, I'm gonna throw that away later. Argh! Now I can't sleep. Due to frustration, I just decided to move now so that I won't be late. I've done some stretching to stretch my bones so that they won't be painful when I do heavy work. After stretching, I took rest first before deciding to take a bath. My mom always told me to take a bath first before eating. She also said that I should remember what Baymax had said "One hour rest after eating before swimming" that goes same with taking a bath. Well, I'm not gonna lose anything if I follow her and look, it has become a habit
"Hey man, I thought you'll be late today. You're really changing ah." I didn't notice that Liam was already seated beside me. I just gave him a smile. I don't have the strength to talk, and knowing Liam, he's so talkative, I'll surely lose all my strength for the day. "So, what's up man? How's Aunt Leah?" Liam asked. "I didn't visit her yesterday," I replied. I went home straight from school. I was feeling sick at that time, that's why I chose to rest. I'll visit mom whenever I get some free time. "Huh? I thought you're going? You told us that, what happened?" I looked at him. I don't know if it's right thing to tell him what happened but keeping those in myself will probably make things worse. Also, I want to let these things out of me and maybe, this way will be better. "It's about me and James... Ahm, we broke up." I was expecting a glee sound , especially knowing that they're both waiting for this, but I didn't expect his reaction. He's silent and looks shocked. "T-tell m
I was really exhausted when I entered the room. I literally ran from the cafeteria 'till here, it's so far. As I opened the doctor, I was taken back to see my professor inside. Sh*t, I didn't make it on time. He looked at me with his glaring eyes. No! Spare my life. "You're late, Mr. Valencia." I know, Sir. It's so obvious. I apologized to Mr. Mendez due to my actions and immediately seated on the vacant space. "Hey, what happened?" I heard someone ask me. I shifted my gaze from the front to my back and I saw a woman. Oh! It's Aleah. She's been my classmate since first year college. We've been together for 1 year so we are already fond of each other. "Ah, I forgot about the class." I really need to check my schedule before doing anything else. If I ever continue being this, Mr. Mendez will probably give me a failing remark. Also, I will miss some lessons, that won't do me good. "Am I that really late?" I asked. Well, Mr. Mendez didn't give me any letter so I guess that's not to
Just like what Katherine said, we will watch the basketball game. We are currently at the gymnasium, wow, there's a lot of people. The players aren't here, since the facilitators are still cleaning the court. So why are we here already? These guys are too excited. Anyways, our basketball team will have its competitor for today coming from the other school. Most of the students are dying to watch it since they said that it'll be a big game, like it was some kind of inter high competition. I wish it'll be finished soon because I wanna go home right now. And that will be impossible since the game isn't even starting. Tsk! Fifteen minutes had passed and the game wasn't still starting. Suddenly, I felt like my head hurt. I looked at my surroundings and my vision was spinning. I tried to make it clear by closing my eyes for a second but when I opened it again, it caused me more headache. I don't think I'll be able to stand it especially because the place is too clangorous, it'll probably m
"You're such a fool." I was shocked by the sudden voice I heard behind me. I forgot that someone is sitting behind me. I ranted and cried my heart out not knowing that there's a person hearing those. This is so embarrassing. I know that I have been stupid. I have done so many things that hurt me along the way. Things that ruined me. Yeah, I'm such a fool. But hearing those words coming from someone I don't know, I couldn't say a thing. It feels like something hitted me, even though I know it's coming. "Being used by others is the worst thing a person could experience. No one wants to be played. We desire for someone that will reciprocate our worth, " I stated. Elder said that we shouldn't talk to someone we don't know, or simply mean, don't talk to strangers. But as we grew up, we realized, letting go of our feelings by telling it to other people is much better, it'll help us to be free. And that's what I'm doing. I can't tell what's on my mind to those people who are close to
