ANDRIETTE      "All students are required to stay at the school premises until five o'clock in the afternoon. Wearing a complete uniform is also a must...."  I rolled my eyes as the school Principal mumbled each kind of his 'rules'. What's the point of the rules if at the end of the day, the students are going to break it?  "Yah!" I immediately closed my eyes before I turned my head to the one who attempted to scare me.   "Try harder, Adhaya," I stated defiantly, shoving my hands into the pocket of my blazer. She giggled and wrapped her arms around mine.  "What do you think of our school?" she asked.  I shrugged my shoulders. "It's fine. Although it's not as huge as my previ

ANDRIETTE   "Yah! Why did you do that?"   I rolled my eyes at Adhaya while we're walking. "What did I do?"   "The scene earlier! Bakit mo naman biniro ng gano'n si Miss Maisie?"   I etched a smirk. Oh, right.  "Just move on already. Biro nga lang 'yun."  She sighed. "Hindi magandang biro 'yun, Dri."  Napailing naman ako at nagpatuloy sa paglalakad.   The cafeteria was almost full when we entered. Muli akong napairap dahil sa lakas ng ingay sa loob. Hindi ba nila alam na nasa school sila at hindi nasa palengke?  "H'wag na lamang kaya tayong kumain? Wala na tayong mauupuan," reklamo ko. Umirap siya at tumingin sa paligid. 

ANDRIETTE   "Dixon Morris?!"  I covered Adhaya's mouth with my hand. "H'wag ka ngang maingay," saway ko.  "Tama ba ang dinig ko? Nakilala mo na si Dixon?"   I nod my head. "What's wrong?"  "Kung kaaway mo si Claude at nakilala mo si Dixon, ibig sabihin..."  "What?" 

ANDRIETTE   I am staring at my wrist watch while silently walking at the corridor. I rolled my eyes when the bell rang. Late na naman ako.  Ugh, whatever. Bahala na!  I rolled my eyes when I felt an arm on my shoulder. Alam ko na agad kung sino siya dahil siya lang naman ang kayang magtangkang umakbay sa akin.  "Ano na namang kailangan mo, Dixon?"  He laughed. "Chill, wala akong gagawing masama."

ANDRIETTE   "Anong sabi ng pusit noong nagalit siya?"  I propped my chin on my hand while boredly looking at Alexis. I yawned before I answered, "What?"  "E'di, pushit!"  My expression darkened as I cringed. "Hindi nakakatuwa," I stated.  She laughed mirthlessly before pouting. "You're mean."
