-Haxielle-
I mean, may makapal na make-up.
"As I know I don't remember anything na nagpaganda sa araw ko. Lumala pa nga nung nakita kita eh." I smirked at her at mukhang nag-init ang ulo nito.
Pikon...
She almost slap me but too bad mas mabilis ang reflexes ko sa kanya kaya inilagan ko lang ito. She gritted her teeth ng hindi niya ako masampal.
She tried to slap me again nang pinigilan ko ang kamay nito.
She looked annoyed as hell.
"Haxielle?"
Sumama ang timpla ko nang marinig ang boses niya.
"Haxielle! My girl!"
Sumeryoso ang mukha ko ng marinig muli ang boses niya.
Nakita ko siyang lumapit sa akin at inakbayan ako. Bumaling tingin nito kay Barbie na gulat sabay balik tingin sa akin na hindi parin umiimik.
He touched my cheeks at pinisil ito.
"Haxielle! Yuhoo! You don't remember me, my girl? Ouch! You hurt my feelings." Sunod-sunod niyang reklamo na parang baby. Ang OA nito.
I already know where is this going...
"Haxielle, it's me the one and only HANDSOME insan of yours." He emphasized the word that makes me roll my eyes whenever I hear it. I heard the audience gasped at ang pag-atras ni Alexie at alipores niya.
"I didn't know may pinsan akong gwapo na Carter. I just know an ugly Carter." Seryoso kong sabi at umalis sa pagkaka-akbay niya.
He frowned.
"Ang cold mo naman, Insan. Tara Insan! Samahan mo ako sa gym may chicks do--- Ah!" Hindi ko na ito pinatapos at piningot ang tenga nang umiral naman ang pagkabastos nito.
Eyes land on us. Lots of girls are pestering me with their looks like they wanted to shout.
'Get your hands off on our Baby Carter'
Like duh... pinsan ko 'tong unggoy na 'to.
"Wait lang Haxielle! Yung beautiful ears ko natatanggal!"
Nang makaalis kami sa kaguluhan ay binitawan ko na ang tenga nito. Pagka-angat palang ng mukha nito ay agad akong nandiri. Nakanguso ito na tila ba naiinis habang nagpapacute. He looks like an ogre.
"Ano ba yan, insan! Yung baby ears ko na harass mo!" Pagmamaktol nito na parang bata.
"It's fine since you're already ugly."
"Grabe ka naman insan sa pinagsamahan natin ng 18 years para ganituhin ang gwapo kong mukha. " He never changed... The same as ever.
Hinintay ko itong tumigil sa pagmamaktol. When he already stop, his gaze turned to me. He started to examine me back and forth.
"May mission ka ba dito sa school niyo?" My brow raised up at sinamaan ng tingin ito. Mukhang narealize niya sinabi niya kaya agad niyang tinakpan ang bibig. Too late...
"Since nagkita naman tayo 'insan' anong gift gusto mong matanggap sa akin? Inihaw na isaw ng tao? Mata na bulalo? Oh di kaya..." I glanced on the thing down there and smirked at him. Namutla ito at tinakpan yon.
"Hehe... ikaw naman insan. Alam mo naman wala kang interest sa mga academy ganon, bat ko pa sasabihin sayo?" He nervously explained at lumayo sa akin ng unti.
Same explanation. Ganon ko ba talaga kinamumunghian ang pag-aaral?
"Oo! Halos accelerated na nga lang kinuha mo kasi ayaw mo eh. Tas pag may group study tayo ayaw mo. Every school year nga sinusunog mo lahat ng libro ka---"
"Sasagot ka pa?" I cut him off and pulled the dagger in my pocket sabay turo don. Natahimik ito sabay inayos ang tayo at yumuko.
"Di na po, Madam Haxielle."
Aba! Walang hiya talaga.
"Kailan ka pa nag-aral dito?" I asked still playing with my dagger.
"Elementary"
Nanlaki ang mata ko at tumingin sa kanya. Hayun! Inosenteng-inosente ang mukha. Naka peace sign ito.
"Axeeeel!" Napatingin kaming dalawa sa babaeng sumisigaw. Halos lahat ng tao ay napatingin sa babaeng tumatakbo habang taas-taas ang kamay.
Tumakbo ito papunta sa direksyon namin di ko ito masyadong mamukhaan dahil sa salamin nito.
Lumapit ang distansya sa amin ng mamukhaan ko ito ay agad akong napa-atras. Jusme, andito na siya!
Niyakap nito ako ng mahigpit hanggang sa hindi ako makahinga. This painful hug belongs to one and only person.
"Axel, miss na kita huhu. Pumayat ka na lalo." Her blue hair is sticking at my nose. Grabe talaga! Amoy rosas pa.
"Oy Remi flat ka parin ah! Batiin mo naman ako. Inuuna mo pinsan ko eh. Halata naman mas gwapo ako sa kanya." His voice sounds more boastful. I mentally rolled my eyes. This two... they are starting again.
"Haxielle!" Tila umilaw ang buong paligid ng marinig ko ang boses ni Kamie. Yes... may lifesaver na ako sa dalawang to.
"Haxielle anong nagyayari dito? Hey Carter! And who are you?" Tumingin ito kay Remi.
"Allow me to introduce myself, sweetie. I am Remilla Cage your beautiful roomate. 18 years old, single and available." She gestures her hand to Kamie na agad nitong tinanggap.
Haha!" May sarcasm yan ah. Patay ka sakin Dad!
"Sus! Di yan beautiful. Tignan mo mukha ngang stick. Payatot na flat pa!" Asar ni Carter. Sinamaan ito ng tingin ni Remi. Ghad, stop initiating a fight!
"I think she's beautiful." Commento ni Kamie. Biglang lumaki ang ulo ni Remi at tumingin sa kanya.
"You know God said, everyone is beautiful of their own looks because it's unique." Nagmukhang binagsakan ng langit at lupa si Remi habang si Carter ay tumatawa lang.
I got enough of this! Ang daming drama!
"You know what? Why don't we have a lunch right now? Since, I haven't eat because of Dolly." I suggested. Lahat ay lumingon sa akin at nagtataka na tumingin. They didn't know that her name is Dolly?
Ako na ang na una since gutom na talaga ako.
"Tignan mo naman si Axel pagkain lang talaga hinahanap." Sabat ni Carter kaya sinamaan ko ito ng tingin. Unti nalang talaga... calm down, have patience papatayin talaga kita.
When we arrived cafeteria ay di maalis ang tingin nila sa amin.
Dahil wala na ako sa mood ay si Kamie na ang nagorder ng pagkain namin.
The eerie was peaceful hanggang sa nagsimulang magbulungan at tumili ang mga babae.
"Kyah! The student council is here!"
"Papa Elijah! Notice me!"
"Secretary Vi! Pa picture naman!"
"VP Hex, my VIP!"
"President Ash! I love you!"
I wear my earphones due to the commotion. Sadly, pumunta sila sa table sa tabi namin.
"Carter my bro! Ba't di ka sumabay sa akin? sayang ung girls don sa gym." A guy with a piercing in lips and red-dyed hair ay lumapit kay Carter.
"Nga eh. Sayang eto kasing si Ha--" He suddenly felt my darkened aura kaya napatingin ito sa akin. Napatingin rin sa gawi ko ang lalaki. I only raised a brow.
"Subukan mo lang." I mouthed him.
"Who are you it seems like your new here?" Tanong nito sa akin. Binaba ko ang kutsara at tinidor. I crossed my arms and legs at tinignan ito.
"She's my cousin." Napaubo ang babae sa sinabi ni Carter.
"Wow! I didn't expect a Carter Merdigan to have a cousin that acts opposite to you." She ridiculously looked at me.
I smirked as answer.
Tinanong mo pa.
"They are the student council. Their works here are remarkable. The school was in peace thanks to them." Kamie on my side suddenly said. Not in the night.
"By what? By scaring the students to their aura? Is that what they can do?" I will be dissapointed if she say yes.
"I think you've got the wrong judgement. See, the guy right there." She pointed to the guy with chestnut hair with intimidating looks.
"He's the president that you shall never mess up with. His name is Asher Lumino. 19 years old and the heir of Lenon Corp. 2nd ranking in Mafia organization." Medyo napatango ako sa sinabi niya.
"How did you know?" I asked her. Her face got nervous and she's doing her mannerism again.
"It's my information, I think you know already." She shyly confessed. I smiled. This girl, she is useful. A brain.
-------
The lunch was really exhausting. I was on my way to the tree, my eyes are half-closed dahil sa antok ko.
I didn't realized na nabangga ako sa matigas na pader. Umatras ako sabay hagot sa noo kong natamaan.
"You awake already?" He sarcastically asked.
I lift my head upang tignan ng masama ang nasa harap ko. Hehe... yung matigas na pader pala.
"Done checking me out?" He fixed his glasses. I flinched in sight of him. How dare he? I only passed through him at nagderetso papunta sa puno.
"Where do you think you are going?" Huminto ako at lumingon sa kanya.
"Ditching"
"Your pass?" My lips motioned to smirk.
"Oh! President, there's no such a rule as stopping me to ditch this class." I jokingly said.
"Well, now there is. Detention. Now." I frowned. Kumukulo na ang dugo ko sa kanya.
"Well, you should be there too. Mr. President." I smiled calmly.
Naglabas siya ng papel na nagpatawa sa akin. He motioned me to the detention room.
Sinamaan ko siya ng tingin habang naglalakad ako papunta sa detention. He is standing right there looking at me inoccently.
You'll pay for this...
President Asher.
Damn it! Headmaster's permit!
---------
HaxielleIt's 8:55pm.The massacre will start in minutes. I am playing with the darts in the room aiming the center.I am mad.I'm very pissed this day.How dare him make me stay for detention? My alarm rang indicating it's 9pm already kaya napangiti ako at lumabas sa kwarto."Where are you going, Axel?" I flinched a bit ng marinig ang boses ni Remi. Inangat ko ang aking tingin. She's standing right there in front of me looking confused while brushing her teeth.I sighed. Naglakad ako papunta sa lamesa at uminom ng baso tubig."I'm going to play." I finally answered and fixed my mask and hood. She walk towards me with a smile on her face not minding the bubbles staying on her mouth."What game?" She asked.The siren turned on. Napatayo siya ng maayos at tinignan ang buong paligid.
HaxielleTahimik akong kumain habang nag kwe-kwentuhan sila Kamie at Remi. "Are you going to eat or talk?" I coldly asked to them. Remi looked at me with confusing eyes."N-""I said it's Grim.""Hala teh! Meron ka?" Agad ko siyang binato ng tinapay nakailag ito at sinalo ang isa sa ito."Shut up! I'm just asking because you both haven't eat a single piece of the pasta I cooked." I said, annoyed because they're not eating the food I cooked."Hindi kase masarap." I instantly glared at her and throws the bread knife towards her."Joke lang, Uy si Axel concerned." She teased me."Langya, I'm concerned you don't like the food. Since you don't give that to me and I will trash it." Tumayo ako sa lamesa at kinuha ang plato nito sabay tapon sa basurahan.She's too
-Haxielle-What did I just do?! Halos mahiwalay na yung buhok ko sa anit dahil sa kakagulo at sabunot nito kanina. I just freakin' let my guard down, damn it! Biglang bumukas ang pintuan at napansin ko ang aura ni Remi. I raised my head up to see her."Did you just make a stupid move, Axel?" She knows and alam kong pinapahiya ko sarili ko."Yes I did, at sobrang baba ng rason." I slammed myself to the bed in frustration. There's a moment of silence between us.Remi laughed breaking the silence. Tagos sa atay ung tawa eh."HAHAHA! Pre! Di ko alam kung ano yon pero sobrang nakakatawa." Napahiga ito habang tumatawa.I sat in the
-Haxielle-"Hector?!" Remi and I said in unison."You know Master Hector?" Elijah asked. Hector turned his swivel chair to listen on us.Tumingin ako kay Carter na nasa likod ni Ash nagtatago. Lumabas ito habang nagp-peace sign sa akin."He's our butler." Carter answered which made every one gasped except the four of us samantalang tumaas ang kilay ni Ash."Wow! A noisy Merdigan is keeping a secret! Pero seryoso nga?" Vissy exclaimed. Three of us just nod at her.Hector cleared his throat before saying something."All of you, Student Council including Remilla Cage was assigned to guard Lady Heaven Morisson due to threat of terrorism attack happening lately in Morrison Clan." Hector announced.
-Haxielle- We rushed into the crime scene.A woman in her mid 20's was lying on the ground. Her eyes are wide open the legs were stretched."What happened?" Mr. Morrison asked."Mr. Morrison, she unexpectedly collapsed on the floor sir, ginawa po namin ang lahat upang pigilan ngunit nawalan na ito ng buhay." Paliwanag ng isang maid.Lumapit ako at sinuri ang katawan. This look... I've done this many times."She's poisoned." Sabi ko. Lumapit si Ash at sinuri ang katawan. Hexton wear his gloves at sinuri ang buong kusina."I'm sure she drank this." Hexton showed a cup with a tea."Seal it kid, I'm making someone to test that." Sabi ni Mr. Morrison. Hexton throws the content in the sink and seal it carefully. There's something in there na nagpaduda sa akin lalo.Pagkatapos non ay pinabalik kami ni Mr. Morris
-Haxielle-"Ok na ba yung saksak mo sa likod, Axel?" Naga-alalang tanong sa akin ni Remi. Sa totoo lang, ok naman talaga ako eh."It's nothing, thanks for helping me out last night." Sumilay naman ang ngiti sa labi nito."Ano ka ba Axel?! Ikaw nga dapat palakpakan ko ng bongga eh. Acting is life ka kasi. Buti nalang sumunod agad yung insan mong unggoy." Masayang sabi nito habang pinapalakpakan ako.Tch! Everything was already set up.I can't still believe Uno was Hexton. But still, 50/50 parin because I am not sure.Biglaang hinila ni Remi kamay ko kaya nakaramdam ako ng unting kirot sa likod."Remi! My back!" Reklamo ko dito at tila wala itong narinig."Anong my back, my back?! Pasabi-sabi ka pa diyan na it's nothing. Tara na naghihintay na si Kamie." Walang awa ako nitong hinila.
-Haxielle- I stopped in the middle of the hall way ng makita kong tumatakbo ang Student Council. President's face is filled with seriousness. When they passed through me sumunod ako sa kanila. Nasa tabi ako ni Carter na halatang problemado."What happened, Carter?" Tanong ko dito. Mukhang napansin niya ako kaya bumagal ang paglakad nito.He ruffled his hair bago niya ako sinagot."A freakin' murder happen. Rumors said it's Grim's doing." We stopped at the when we reach the end of hall way.Nice.The man was hunged in the ceiling. Fresh blood is streaming down its open abdomen. I used his blood to paint my mark on the wall.Halos masuka ang ibang kababaihan. Vissy was holding her mouth.Hexton pic
=Ash="Yow, we are being summoned by Master Hector." Elijah showed up with his girl. "Mission na naman?" Reklamo ni Carter."Let's go." I stand up and lead the way. Naabutan namin sila Vissy at Haxielle na nagkwekwentuhan.Nagtama ang mga mata namin and we just exchanged glares. I know this is bad, but I am getting suspicious of her.She's way too mysterious than I expected."What's up kids?" Hector happily greeted us. Haxielle rolled her eyes while Carter is clinging silently in her neck. These two...They are closer than I expected."What's our mission today?" I asked Hector whose in a prince outfit and dancing waltz.He made a turn and handed me the information.
