ALICE POV

Third day of working with them. Sheki and her friends are fun. Hindi ko lang alam bakit parang hindi magkasundo si Abby at Sela.

Wala ng nalate sa aming lahat which is a good thing. Baka kasi magkainitan na naman. I feel the tension between Sela and Abby. I feel the awkwardness with Dana and Jem but with Jem,seems she's getting used to it day by day. Gabb became shy all of a sudden. Well,when it comes to work she's active but with them she's quiet.

"What's for the morning event?" Abby asked as all of us getting too much time thinking about it.

"As for now,wala pa." It's Jem who answered her.

Looks like Jem is acting as our leader in this responsibility. We all sighed.

Silenced brought into the student council as we can't give idea for morning events.

I sighed once again. Cleared my throat to gather their attention.

"All of the ideas that has been given,all of it were being rejected by us. If we continue doing it,we'll absolutely stuck here."

"Agreed." Jem shortly said.

Again silenced enveloped us. Thinking of might a good idea but minutes passed we're still quiet.

"It's rejected because it is not good for us. We want what best for this event." Brei who broke the silence.

"Not good for us.For us?" Gabb said realizing something.

"What is it Gabb?" Sela asked desparately,wanting to hear her ideas.

Gabb quickly looked down as she get shy by the latter.

"Gabb,nothing will happen if you'll continue to be like that. Especially,we are having a hard time accepting idea." Abby said sternly,which makes Gabb raised her head to looked at us. "I'm sorry." Gabb said still shy.

She took a deep breath. 

"I mean for us right? What about the other students? What if it is not good to us,how about them,their idea?"

"And what about it?" I asked.

"I think we should gather some of the students ideas. We need to create choices for them and all they need to do is to choose what's best for them. If we wants what best,we should make them participate here."She explained.

Lumiwanag naman mga mukha namin sa idea ni Gabb. Ginahan kaming magtrabaho dahil dito.

"Pwede siya but..." Jem trailed off looked at everyone. "It will cost more time. Sa pamimigay ng sasagutan nila,hanggang sa pagtally dito."

"You're right but this is the best choice to do. Marami naman tayo,pwede natin hati-hatiin trabaho. Who's with it?" Abby debated.

We all nodded and raised our hands as a vote for Gabb's idea.

"Ilang copies?" Sela asked which brought us to discuss thoroughly about it.

"100 students,I guess?" Dana suggested.

Jem shook his head as she didn't agree to it. "Sa dami ng students dito.100 is not enough.Maybe a 200 will do."

"Sa tingin ko rin. 100 sa college and 100 sa highschool." Pagsang-ayon ni Rans sa kaibigan. Which I also agreed.

"I'll go with it.Mas maganda nga. Random na lang ba?" 

"Yap,hindi naman to katulad ng research or thesis na need na maayos. Basta masunod na hati." Jem answered Ecka.
