Mr. In Denial Meets Miss Eyeglasses

Chapter 7

TANGHALI TAPAT AT sobrang init! Ang dami ko pang kailangan isipin about sa project, research, assignment and Nathan. Why would I need to think about him? Argh, if he wasn't that cheesy hindi ko na kailangan mag overthink.

Pagbalik ko sa classroom ay napansin kong sobrang seryoso ng lahat at naka hati sa grupo, what happened while I was gone? Lumapit saakin si Shane at binigay ang isang form na nakafill-up at laman ang impormasyon ko.

"Why does it have my name to it?" I ask her.

"Nag dedecide na kasi ang lahat kung saan sila n Club papasok, required kasi iyon kaya its either gusto nila gumawa ng Club or sasali sila ng club" wait, a student has the authority to make his/her own club? Now that's something.

"Teka, wala naman akong maalala na nag fill-up ako ng form" kumunot ang noo ni Shane sa tanong ko at napa-isip siya.

"Nathan gave it to me aerly this morning, na process na niya kaya sinasabi ko lang sayo" that asshole did what?

"Without my permission?" I angrily ask.

"Yeah, yung principal mismo yung nagpirma eh" I was frozen in place when I heard my father's, deym. He knew na wala akong balak pumasok ni isa or pipili ako ng least sa lahat lahat ng mga club.

"Sige una na ako, kailangan ko pang kumain eh" wait! I still have few more questions! Argh, that ass sure is trying my patience. Tiningnan ko ang form at binasa iyon, English club? Sa next page ay may mapa kung saan ang mga club room highlighted and English Club at ang mga guidelines, nanlaki ang mata ko ang daming events na kasali ang English club.

Mabilis kong hinanap sa mapa ang Student Council at dali-dali akong tumakbo, after a few minutes of running I finally find my way. Tatlong beses akong kumatok at binuksan ang pinto, nakita ko na ang tanging tao na naroon ay ang President.

"Yes Clio, ano kailangan mo?" She ask.

"Ahm, about this form" lumapit ako sa kanya at pinakita ang papel na hawak ko, "there is a misunderstanding, wala pa akong napagdesisyunan na club na sasalihan. Isn't this against the regulation or something? Can I changed the club atleast?" paki-usap ko.

"Hmmm, I wish I could but the principal himself gave this to Nathan and fill it up with all the information needed. Palagay ko nga close kayo ng principal eh" pagbibiro nito, well. We are related by blood so I guess it kinda is?

"So what? Can you changed it?" napa isip siya at may kinuhang folder sa drawer nito.

"We can but you need to find someone willing to change with you," what? Really?!

"So I can change clubs?" I said in a high pitch voice, she nod.

"Yeah, but most of the clubs has their own limits of club members and almost 93.2% na mga student is contented sa club nila so medyo mahihirapan kang makipag exchange especially one sa mga major club ang English" nawala ang ngiti ko sa labi ng marinig iyon, my father sure used his authority to forced join me into this. Tinakasan ako ng lakas at malungkot na tiningnan ang form, ni wala akong pirma sa papel na to eh..

"Don't worry Clio, to be honest wala ka namang dapat ikabahala" she assured me but I don't feel at ease.

"It says na maraming event ang magaganap sa mga susunod na buwan at almost lahat kasali ang english club doon, ibig sabihin kailangan naming mag participate sa mga events" malungkot kong tugon, masaya ako dahil maraming oppourtunities but the thing is English Club is one of the powerhouse in this school. To put it simply, STRICT. And English.

"No need to worry, naka aasign ka lang naman for grammar checking. Kailangan kasi nila ng isang member and the principal just randomly pick you for some reason, wala ka namang masyadong tatrabahu-in. All memebers of that club is kind and friendly" so I don't have to join these following events? Or else I'll die.
