Noah was right, matapos ko balikan si Hunter at Coach Rio para sabihing itutuloy ko na ang archery ay ini-announce nila ang magaganap. The first four days will be dedicated to the annual foundation day, which will involve enjoyment and no sports. The booths, pageants, and other events scheduled for the two executive days were mentioned. The fifth day of celebration, which marks the start of the athletic fest, is when the two schools will arrive. There will be sporting competitions over three days, complete with awards. They did make notice of the altered Annual Foundation flow.
There were many students who disagreed, and I find it hard to believe the dean made this decision. If not everyone is welcome to enter the auditorium, then what about the cheering groups and the students who are willing to encourage their classmates? This is ridiculous.
"What makes you change your mind?" Hunter asked.
I shrug my shoulder at nagpatuloy sa aking paglalakad palabas ng gym. But seems like he was upset about something. He grabbed my arm and made me look at him.
"Get your hands off me Hunter kung ayaw mong pilipitin ko 'yan." Inis na binitawan naman nito ang braso ko.
"Ayan ka nanaman Liv eh, porke't close na ulit kayo ni Noah binabaliwala mo nalang ako." Umikot ang dalawang mata ko at cross arms na tumingin sa kaniya.
"Tigilan mo ako Hunter. Ang mabuti pa, tawagan mo si Jacod dahil isang linggo na ang pinagagawa ko pero hanggang ngayon wala parinng result."
"Jacob will call if he was done with the job. We dont have to call him everyday for an obvious update."
"Naiinip na ako, Hunter. Akala ko ba magaling siya?"
"I won't recommend Jacob if I'm not sure that he's good. Just reoax, Liv you have plenty of time." Tumaas bigla ang kilay ko.
"Really? Plenty of times after all that happened? Aantayin ko pa bang may mamatay nanaman para masabi kong kukang na ako sa oras at kailangan ko ng magmadali?!"
Naalarma yata si Hunter sa pagtaas ng boses ko. Balisang lumingon ito sa paligid at lumapit sa'kin.
"Wag ka namang sumigaw, Liv. Baka isipin ng mga tao nag-aaway tayo."
"Fine, whatever, I'll just... wait for Jacob's call."
"Good."
"Tell me immediately when Jacob called you." Sabi ko pa kay Hunter saka iniwan na sila duon.
"Liv." While walking, I swifted my head on the side of the court and I saw Noah.
"Ahm- nasa labas na daw sila Julius." Matamlay na sabi nito na kina-kunot ng nuo ko.
"What's wrong?" umiling siya.
"Nothing, tara na." tumalikod na ito at naglakad palayo. Napalingon muna ako kay Hunter na humahakbang na muli palapit sa akin.
"What about that?" Pang-uusisa nito.
"No idea."
Sinundan ko ang mahinang lakad ni Noah at pinagmasdan siyang mabuti. Malalim ang buntong hiningang binibitawan nito at pasimpleng hinahagod ang kaniyang ulo. I grabbed his hand and make him face me.
"Noah, tell me what's wrong?" Nanlaki ang mga mata ko ng mapuna ang pamumutla niya.
"Oh sh*t hurry, let's go." Inalalayan ko na siya hanggang sa makarating kami sa gate. Lumabas mula sa driver seat ang nag-aalalang si Waxton at agad kaming sinalubong.
"What happened?" tanong nito at agad akong dinaluhan upang maipasok si Noah sa loob ng sasakyan.
"I don't know, but I think it's something to do with the pain killer I gave him."
