"The Phenomenology of Love. So ito yung topic natin! Excited na ako sa reporting. Paano natin 'to hahatiin?" Excited na tanong ni Vianca while scanning through our hand-outs.

I heaved a sigh and avoided my gaze at her.

Sa lahat ba naman kasi ng topic sa Philosophy, ito pa ang napunta sa grupo ko. Okay sana kung death or suffering or even pain. That would be perfect. But hell, ito pa talaga. Nakakainis lang.

Yes, despite being an assassin, we still go to school like a normal girl. Mga tao pa rin naman kami who needs knowledge to grow. But there are times when we had to transfer school for a mission or for safety hiding.

Do we use our real name in our school records?

Yes.

As risky as it may seem, we have to still live like a normal teenager. Yun nga lang, we keep our profile low and we hide our real family background. Aside from that, we keep our walls up. We don't know what kind of people we are dealing with even inside the campus and so being cautious is needed.

"Akin yung simula. Ako na rin ang mag-iintro." Helena claimed.

"Okay, then ako sa middle part! So Lyn, okay bang ikaw na lang sa end part as well as for the summary of our report?" Narinig kong tanong ni Vianca pero nasa ibang lugar ang isip ko.

Nakakainis naman kasi si sir. Of all the topic, why this freaking Love?! It should really be Death. Mas makakarelate pa ako doon because that's what I give those evil criminals. I have seen death before my very own eyes and I even almost have face it.

But I won't let that happen. Sila muna ang mamamatay bago ako.

Someone snapped her fingers at my face which made me snapped out of my thoughts and raise an eyebrow at her. Pero syempre hindi ko iyon ginawa. I'm a tamed El sa school kaya napatingin na lang ako.

"Ang lalim na naman ng iniisip mo Lyn. Ang sabi ko, ayos lang ba sayong ikaw ang sa end part at summary ng report natin?" I gave them a bored look. As much as I want to look okay and pretend to be a jolly girl like I usually do, I just can't. Not when I'm faced with this kind of dilemma.

Tumango na lang ako at umiwas ng tingin. As if I have a choice. Dumagdag pa 'to sa mga iniisip ko. Can this week get any better? Tsk. Of course, I was being sarcastic.

"Alright. So eto, nadivide ko na ang chapters and we just have to read and truly discern everything that is written in there. You know sir Nikkolai, he asks just about everything! So see you tomorrow at eight para sa final preparation natin. Ako na lang bahala sa powerpoint presentation." She gave us the hand-outs na hindi ko manlang matingnan. Kung yung isang malaking salitang LOVE palang nga ay nadidisganar na ako, ano pa kaya yung mga bagay na tungkol doon? No way.

As if you have a choice El. Said my subconscious which made me cringe. Kainis lang talaga.

Bagsak ang mukha ko habang naglalakad sa may corridor. This is not the Lyn they know. Sa school kasi ay kilala ako bilang jolly and friendly when I'm in fact the exact opposite. Kami ng M4, we changed our personalities here for work purposes.
