"Alam niyo parang tanga tong si MacKenzie kanina." Tawang tawa na panimula ni Kenna nang makaupo sila sa couch ng cafe. Friday na ng hapon at nag decide silang tumambay sa cafe. Nakasanayan na nilang apat na palaging magkakasama kaya parang naging magbarkada na sila at naging komportable sa isa't isa.
"Don't remind me Kenna." Iling ni MacKenzie.
"Why? What happened?" Naya asked.
MacKenzie pouted hearing Naya's question. Keena was still laughing at him, MacKenzie glanced at Yanique and the latter had a small smile on his face.
Tumingin si Kenna kay Naya. "You know typical college student na naligaw ng classroom. Diba magkaklase kayo ni yanyan sa isang class kanina? Tapos magkaiba kami ng classroom ni MacKenzie pero nasa iisang building? Tapos," natawa ulit si Kenna. "Tapos naghihintay ako kanina ng professor, andami nang estudyante sa room. Nakita ko si MacKenzie pumasok sa room namin tapos kalmadong umupo, nilabas niya mga gamit sa backpack niya at nilapa
"What the hell happened last night? Naya tell me! Why am I remembering weird things? Naya!"Naya felt somebody rocking her body. "Kenna lemme sleep for a while. Mamaya na lang tayo mag usap okay?""No, talk to me.""Kenna I'm tired."Kenna pouted and stopped bothering Naya. Her head was pounding and she remembered things that she doesn't know if they're real or not. She looked at her phone and there's a video sent to her from MacKenzie.Kinakabahang binuksan niya iyun. Bigla siyang nahiya sa nakitang lasing na sarili na nakakapit kay Naya na paulit ulit niyang tinatawag na ate."The hell?" Kenna whispered. Di na niya pinagpatuloy ang panunuod. Dumeritso siya sa banyo at naligo. Pagkalabas ay nakita si Naya na gising na. May nakakaloko itong ngisi."Please don't say anything about last night.""You know I remembered MacKenzie telling you to not drink too much and I clearly remembered you replying you are old enough to know
Naya got up early in the morning and knocked Kenna's door. They went to the gym and spend half an hour working out."Sarap sa pakiramdam magpapawis especially after being scolded last night." Sabi ni Kenna habang nagpapahinga sila."You should stop thinking about it. We were wrong, we regretted it, got scolded but in the end we learned our lesson." Naya comforted."Hmm yeah I know that. I know where dad is coming from but do you think what had happened then, could happen now or in the future? I mean with dad's capabilities may magtatangka pa din na gagawa ng masama satin?""We don't know how wicked people way of thinking. It's better to be safe than sorry. Maraming tao ang nag iisip na walang pwedeng maglakas loob na banggain ang mga Lopez pero nangyari na dati at may nawala.""Hindi ko alam kung paano nila nasisikmura ang ginagawa nila. I don't want to think about it. The work out just now had released some toxins out from my body. I don't want to
"Thank goodness it's Christmas." MacKenzie said and sitted on a chair. They're in the cafeteria having their lunch."Are you on drugs?" Seryosong tanong ni Kenna sa pinsan. "It's been only a month since the school started.""Time is an illusion." MacKenzie replied as a matter of fact. Yanique and Naya laughed."Ikaw ang nag-iilusyon." Kenna said. "Well anyway, days ago while I was strolling around the campus I saw a dog boarding kennel. I wanted to go inside but I didn't have enough time to stay longer.""Why is there a kennel here in school?" MacKenzie asked."Siguro yung mga estudyante na nagdodorm dito, dinadala nila yung mga aso at dun nila nilalagay. Binibisita lang pag may free time to relieve stress." Naya said. Of course she knew about the place."Pwede tayong pumunta kahit wala naman tayong aso dun?" Yanique asked."Hmm, payag naman yung ibang estudyante na may ari. Pero merong iba na ayaw, nakaprivate yung sa kanila." Kenna
One morning, Naya remembered that her mother's birthday was only five days away. When they went to their first class, she was a little at lost thinking about something. Before going to their first class, she felt a nudged on her shoulder."You okay?" Kenna asked."Hmm, just thinking something." Naya replied.Hanggang sa magtanghalian sila sa cafeteria ay kapansin pansin ang katahimikan ni Naya.MacKenzie leaned at Kenna and whispered. "Anong nangyari kay mare?""I don't know, she's like that since this morning. It's kinda bothering me now. I don't think I did something wrong with her either." Kenna answered and tried to recall everything that had happened since yesterday."Mare, okay ka lang ba?" Tanong ni MacKenzie kay Naya. Napansin ni MacKenzie na parang hindi narinig ni Naya ang tanong niya. Tinawag niya ang pangalan nito. "Nayasha Lopez.""Huh? Ahh, I'm sorry. Did you say something?" Naya replied in daze."Okay ka la
The next morning Naya was in deep thought again. There was clearly something wrong with Seth Lawrence. She hadn't receive any messages from him."Hey you're thinking of your mom again?" Kenna asked gently."No," Naya shook her head. "Have you seen Seth yesterday? Or Gian and his band?" Naya asked."Hindi. Bakit?" Kumunot ang noo ni Kenna."Nothing." Naya replied in low voice.In the afternoon Naya was sure to herself, Seth was avoiding her and she didn't know why. Before her second class in the morning she saw him and he also saw her, but he looked away and acted like he hadn't saw her. She somehow felt helpless thinking what she did wrong.After her first class in the afternoon Naya saw Gian. She approached him and asked about Seth."Kasama ko nga kanina pero umalis agad, medyo busy siya ngayon eh. Pinatawag kanina ng mommy niya." Tugon ni Gian.Tumango naman si Naya. "Is everything okay? Why do I feel like he's av
Naya saw that Seth was still looking at her with worried eyes. She took his right hand and intertwined it with hers. "I'll be fine." She assured.Seth sighed and opened the front passenger seat. Naya calmly sitted inside to prove to the other that she's fine. She felt Seth stares while walking around to the driver's seat. When he sat inside, he looked at her as if checking any change of emotions. When he made sure that she's alright, he nodded at her and started the engine of the vehicle.Gaya ng apartment ni Sidney ay malapit lang din ang apartment ni Seth sa school. Tahimik lang silang dalawa sa loob ng sasakyan. Naya felt that Seth was stealing glances from time to time."Okay lang talaga ako. You should focus on the road." Naya stated."I'm just worried." Seth said while driving.They reached Seth's place in just minutes. Seth's place is a little bigger than Sidney's. Tahimik silang bumaba ng sasakyan, Seth took Naya's hand and brought her insi
Like the usual, Naya and Yanique have the same course schedule on their music history. Their class is in the sophomore's building. On their way to the class, Naya and Yanique came across with Vanessa. Recently after seeing her cousin again, Naya always crossed path with the girl. "Naya, I saw you again." Vanessa said to Naya and glanced at Yanique. Naya noticed Vanessa's burning gaze at Yanique. The girl is not really hiding it at all and Naya knows that Yanique noticed it too. "Hey, you again." Naya replied. "Duveen's annual violin and piano competition is approaching, you think there's a master professor who will recommend you?" Vanessa opened up, her tone had a hint of mocking. Naya smiled at Vanessa, "hmm I don't know. Let's see." Naya didn't really want to exchange mocking or any inappropriate words with her cousin. Ayaw niyang magsayang ng laway at oras para lang labanan ang walang kwentang pang kukutya nito. Kung maglalaba
Naging usap usapan ang tungkol sa announcement para sa nalalapit na annual competition. Ang pinaka pinag uusapan ay ang pangalan ni Naya na tatlong beses na nakasulat sa listahan. May kumuha pa ng litrato dun at pinost sa forum. Marami agad ang nag komento pag ka post ng list sa forum. Comment 1: Damn I can't believe three master professors actually chose Nayasha Lopez. Comment 2: Two of the mps who chose her are both Duveen, Mrs. Madisson and Ms. Rosie Leigh. Comment 3: There are only two freshman who made it on the list. I'm not familiar with the other one but she was always with Nayasha. And they're both recognized by the Duveens. Comment 4: Nayasha Lopez is really powerful. I think we can all agree that she will win the national.▶reply: +1: +2: +3: +4:.... Comment 5: Oh don't forget about Nayasha's cousin. Vanessa is also on the list, damn this year's competition is really interesting. Comment 6: Vanes
