CHAPTER 8: STRANGE

Caleb's POV:

Nakakairita talaga ang lalaking yon, bakit pa kasi siya pumasok.

"Hey, Tanner i quit." i said.
"What!? ang bilis mo namang sumuko." Tanner said.
"I don't care, nagawa ko naman na yung dare mo dba? and i won this bet." i said fiercely.
"Haha fine, here." he gave me the money and i kept it.

Ayokong mag mukhang loser dahil lang sa money bet namin.

But i badly need this, because my parents doesn't give me money. Baka daw kasi ipambili ko lang ng PC, well since meron naman nakong ipon idadagdag ko yung ibinigay sa'kin ni Tanner pambili ng PC.

I'm such a naughty son, and i admit it.

"I'm glad that you know how to fulfill a deal." i said then smirked.
"Are you happy now?" he said.
"Yes i am, thank you for this." i said.
"Okay, enjoy you deserve it." he said and left.

After that i left too and go back in our room.

Surprisingly wala pa si Celine at Vinn sa room, nasan na kaya ang dalawang yon?

"Class asan na ang iba?" Ma'am Dizon asked.
"Maybe they're not done yet on eating Ma'am Dizon." i answered.
"Sguro nga, hintayin nalang natin ang iba." she said.

After a few minutes dumating na sila.

Celine's POV:

My God! it was all fake. Damn you Caleb, napaniwala ako ng isang pesteng yon.

I thought he really likes me, but it was just a bet argh. I wanna slap him, matapos niya kaming sitahin ni Vinn kanina tapos palabas lang pala ang lahat ng yon. He's getting into my nerves.

Na late pa tuloy kaming dalawa ni Vinn, dahil maging siya ay narinig din ang usapan nila Caleb at ni Tanner. Kinwento ko rin sa kanya kung ano ba ang nangyari.

"Ms. Acosta, what is our topic all about?" someone asks me.
"Ms. Acosta! are you with us?"

Patay lutang na ako hay nako masyado akong nadala kay Caleb, tinatanong na pala ako ni Ma'am Dizon.

"Ah sorry po Ma'am." i said and bowed my head.
"San ba naka focus yang utak mo anak?" she asked.
"May problem po kasi ako pasensya na po hindi na mauulit." i said.

Totoo naman kasi hmp.

"Fine i'll give you a chance, how bout you Mr. Weller mukhang alam mo naman ang sagot ano?" Ma'am Dizon asked to our Classmate.

Thanks to you Louis dahil sa kalokohan mo ikaw na ang mapapahiya.

At hindi rin siya nakasagot, buti nga sa kanya at napagalitan rin siya.

"That's all for todays lesson, i'm kinda disappointed at you today my dear students." Ma'am Dizon said in a serious tone.
"I hope na hindi na ito maulit, nag-kakaintindihan ba tayo? she added.
"Yes po, Ma'am." we answered.
"Siguraduhin niyo lang, maiwan na ang mga Cleaners and the rest makaka uwi na kayo Good Day." she said without emotion.

I feel bad for her, i blame my self for what happened today.

"Celine i'm so-" i cut off his words.
"Shut up, i don't wanna hear anything from you." i said "Oh wait i know you're the Class President and need to be respected, but i don't think so." i added and stormed off.

I don't care kung magalit siya sa'kin. Mali naman kase ang ginawa niya una palang.

I hate him now, i never knew this would happen. Before i dreamt of being one of his close friend, but not anymore.

~*~

Vinn was a cleaner today and i'll wait for him sa waiting shed, even wala naman kaming napag-usapan na hihintayin ko siya. Gusto ko lang siyang makasabay pauwi and there's nothing wrong with that.

Nauna naman na kasi si Hannah at medyo awkward parin siya sa'kin maybe because sa pag confess niya.

Natanaw kona siyang papunta sa waiting shed. Nakita niya siguro ako. Yes it's him, Vinn.

"Oh Celine, are you waiting for me?" Vinn asked.
"Yeah sabay na tayo umuwi." i answered.
"Sige tara na." he said.

At tumango nalang ako para maka alis na kami.

Habang nasa byahe kami ay patuloy ko paring iniisip ang mga nangyari kanina.

"Celine, are you okay?" Vinn asked.

Mababakas mo sa mukha niya ang pag-aalala.

"Yes i am, don't worry." i said and smiled.

I need to act like i'm really okay even i'm not. Ayoko na kasing mag-alala pa siya pati sa'kin.

"Good bye Celine, see you tommorow." Vinn whispered to me.
"Good bye Vinn see you too, cheer up again." i whispered back.

Bumaba na siya ng jeep at naglakad papunta sa bahay nila.

After 20 minutes ako na ang bumaba ng jeep, mas malayo kasi ang bahay ko kesa sa kanila.

~*~

Pagpasok ko nang bahay narinig kong may nag-aaway mula sa second floor. Sa room nila Mom and Dad, but why? Are they arguing?

I heard them shouting as i let my ear to listen well.

"Sigurado ka bang Birthday Celebration ang pinuntahan mo?" i heared Dad asked.
"Oo naman, eh ikaw sigurado ka bang about business ang in-attendan mo last time?" Mom questioned Dad too.
Hindi sumasagot si Dad.

What the heck is happening!? I want to stop them from arguing.

"Are you doubting me?" Dad said.
"What!? you're the one who started this! aren't you the one who doubts at me?" Mom said.

I can't hold my tears anymore. Tumulo na iyon ng sunod sunod. Ayoko silang naririnig na nag-aaway, para akong naistatwa sa kinatatayuan ko.

"Fine i'll believe you this time just don't tell this to our daughter." Dad said and gets out of the room.

He was shocked when he saw me listening at them outside their room.

Fuck i get caught.

"Hon! umamin kanga are you guilty?" I heard mom shouting again. "Sumagot ka! someone sent me a picture of you and a girl with you."

"Sino siya? kabit mo ba?" Mom said and she started crying "Akala mo hindi ko alam? well may nag send sa'kin non isa sa mga tauhan natin sa company. So don't you dare lie to me." she added.

Tila nabibingi ako at ayoko nang marinig ang mga sinasabi ni Mom kay Dad. Wala akong magawa dahil wala rin akong alam.

"She's not." Dad answered.

Mom slapped Dad.

"Liar!" she shouted and angrily closed the door in their room.

"Dad! is it true? tell me?" i said and stared at him.

"I'm so sorry my sunshine, please forgive me." he said.

"So what's your answer Dad? why were you apologizing to me instead na kay Mom niyo po gawin yan?" i asked.

"Y-Yes it's true."

Para akong sinampal ng katotohanan. Paano niya nagagawa ito sa amin ni Mom?

"Explain yourself." i said seriously.
"Yes i do have an affair with her, but i have my reason. We were communicating."
"Really! how could you do this to us Dad? and communicating about what? answer me." i asked.

"You'll know soon." he said and walked downstairs.

He left me without even clarifying the thing he said to me.

I immediately knocked at the door many times. But Mom isn't opening it, this is not good.

This was even worse than a nightmare what will i do now?
