"A newbie." 

The attention is both overwhelming and annoying. It’s my first day in this university and I'm fully aware this will happen. Papunta ako sa una kong klase, and walking down the corridor is like walking to a battlefield. Halos lahat ng madaanan ko ay napapatingin. What's wrong with these people? Naisipan akong i-enroll ni Daddy habang dito ako mananalagi.

"Have you heard about her? She's a fearless bitch who’s always involved into many troubles..."                                              

I eyed the women in the locker area. Nag-uusap ang mga ito habang kinukuha ang mga libro sa lockers nila, ngunit nagawa pa ng mga itong pag-usapan ako. I mentally scoffed.

"Bio lab," I muttered my first subject.

 Pumasok ako sa classroom. Natigilan pa ang mga nasa loob nang makita ako, tila teacher na lang ang inaabangan so I'm sure the teacher’s late. Those stares are unnerving. Geez! Walang bakanteng upuan.

May isa pa pala. There's a guy sleeping on the left side near the window. Sa tabi nito may isa pa’ng upuan . I went and sat beside him.

"Alam ba niya ginagawa niya?"

"She's really a newbie. Kilala ba niya ang tibatabihan niya?"

"Huh, let's see how Van would react "

Napakunot noo ako. Fuck these people. Nagbubulungan na nga lang ang lakas pa!

"Hmm..."

Nilingon ko ang lalake sa tabi ko. Nakasandig ang ulo niya sa mga braso, covering his face. He got long hair, abot siguro sa balikat ito and a manly body built. Naka-uniform ang lahat maliban sa kanya... At ako syempre. I'm wearing my usual v-neck black shirt, a ripped jeans and a black closed sandals. While he’s wearing gray thin fabric shirt. Bumabakat ang mga muscles sa braso nito and a simple faded maong pants.

Ugh! kailan pa ako nag-ogle sa katawan ng lalakeng tulog?

As instance, he stirred to life.

Unti-unti siyang kumilos at nag-angat ng ulo. Shit! I'm still staring! Nagulat ako nang bumaling siya sa akin, as if all along he knew I was there. Damn! It was him! Ito ‘yung lalake sa kotse noong isang araw.

Naramdaman ko bigla ang mabilis na pintig ng puso ko. He still looked emotionless just like the day we met. Why can't I look away? He got prominent gray eyes. Not black, but dark gray. It’s like hypnotizing me. He then looked down on my chest as if naririnig niya ang mala-karera’ng pintig ng aking dibdib. Damn reactions! I immediately looked away.

Kumalma ka! This is not very you, Cassandra Novalez!

"What are you doing here?"

What? Nilingon ko siya. He sounded both arrogant and careless.

"Am I not allowed here?" I raised an eyebrow. He remained emotionless.

"I'm the only one allowed here."

Territorial. His baritone and cold voice brought nothing but shiver to me. But heck, I'm not afraid of him.

 I rolled my eyes.

"I see no name," untag ko.

For the first time I saw a variation on his face, he smirked. Umangat ang isa sa gilid ng labi niya. Nakarinig ako ng mga singhap mula sa paligid.

"You don't know what you're doing"  It sounded both a warning and a sarcasm.

"Oh, you're wrong. I always know what I'm doing," I countered and looked away. Eksakto namang pumasok ang teacher.
