 “Congrats.”

“Salamat.” Sagot ko naman at tuloy sa paglakad papuntang room.

Lagi na lang kapag may nadadaanan akong estudyante hindi maiiwasan na batiin nila ako. Everything has changed after that night. Hinulog ako ng magagaling kong kaibigan dagdagan pa ng mahal na mahal kong kapatid. Insert sarcastic tone there.

“Please, Madds!” Samantha and Alex chorused.

“No. Hindi. Ayoko!” They’ve been begging since I arrived. Why me? I think we should just back out for this pageant. Nagkabulilyaso na ang lahat dahil kay Althea. Ang tigas pala ng bungo ng babaeng iyon, ayaw na lang sumunod sa mentor niya.

“What the hell! What’s this?” I looked to Samantha and she just shook her head, my eyes went to Alex. What’s all about this paper, my name is already written on this representative form.

“It’s not my fault, Madds…” she nervously retorted and she pulled Sam closer to her. “It’s our fault.” They chorused and gave me a piece sign.

“Mapapatay ko kayo!!” I was about to pull their hair but…

“Hey, why did you not answer your phone? Naligaw tuloy ako.” I was staring for this person who’s looking to Samantha. Why is my sister here?

“Thank you for the right direction.” Sabi nito sa lalaking kasama niya.

“What are you doing here, Jade?” I asked. My two friends went to her back and whispering something.

“Yeah, I got it. You don’t have to tell me everything, I’m not that idiot.” She told to Alex and rolled her eyes. “Yow, sister I’ll be your mentor for tonight. Cool, right?” as she said while walking towards me and giving me her most annoying smile.

“No. No! Back off, Jade! Duh, I’m not joining for this fvcking pageant. I’m not… “

“What?!”

“Prepared..” I said.

“Hahaha! You’re a chicken, sister. Tsk. Tsk!”  I’m definitely not! I know this is the part of their fvcking plan.

“Shut up! I’m not a scaredy-cat!”

“Then prove to us. Win the Ms. Thomasian title!” Jade still know how to challenge me. Then, challenge accepted.

That’s the reason why I joined that pageant and won the first runner up title and the best costume. Not bad at all, especially to an on the spot candidate like me. But there’s a few students who told me that I should’ve win the crown even Jeric told me about it. Jeric supported me, I mean the growling tigers. I think he threatened his team mates just to support me. He said that he didn’t recognize me at first, he even took a picture with me and posted on his instagram account.

“May nagcomment na naman sa picture niyo ni Jeric .” pagkaupo ko agad naman ako sinalubong nito ni Sam. She’s always read the comment about that photo.

 “Who is she? Yuck, she’s ugly! Jeric, belongs to me. Just kidding. Bagay kayo kuya Jeric ni ate. Hehe”

“Ang ganda ni Ate. Siya na ba idol?”

“Wow. May kamukha si ateng model. Ganda.” Samatha reads. Buti na lang wala akog instagram atleast hindi ko nababasa commnets nila but I have twitter, hindi ko na nga lang nagagamit.

“Bagay nga sila. Hay! Kinikilig ako.” Nagpipilantik na sabi ni Alex. Kami bagay? Duh! We’re human not a thing. Masyado lang akong nagiging close kay Jeric but they don’t need to make rumors about us, lalo na yung team mates niya. Mamaya guluhin ako ng fan girls ni Jeric, hindi ko kaya ‘yun.
