My Gay Boyfriend (Series 2)

Chapter 2: Friendship

***Grade school, 3rd Grade.

The young Cassiopeia just listening to her brat classmate Winnie who keeps on boasting infront of her her newest unicorn pencil case. Binili pa daw nito ng Mommy niya sa Singapore dahil kadarating lang daw nito kahapon.

"And look, even my crayons and pencils are unicorn design too. Hindi katulad ng sa iyo, ang panget ng pencils at crayons mo. Just eew!"

Bigla nalang nakaramdam ng uhaw si Cassiopeia. She was eating her bacon sandwhich made by her Mom. Binaba niya muna sa lalagyan ang baong sandwhich na nasa desk niya para kuhanin ang kulay pink niyang tubigan na Mickey Mouse. Binalewala niya ang presensiya ng nasa harap lang niyang upuan na si Winnie but the brat classmate seems like got pissed on how she ignored her. Katabi rin nito ang isa pang mataray na kaibigan na si Vina.

Akmang iinom na sana siya sa tubigan ng basta nalang inagaw ni Winnie ang tubigan niya. Cassiopeia brows furrowed in an instance.

"Where did you buy this?! Mangagaya. I also have this in my house, Mom brought me like this in Singapore too."

'Pake ko naman.'

"Ibalik mo na'yan sa akin. I'm thirsty." Cassiopeia boringly said. But a brat classmate will always be a brat. Nagkatinginan sa harap niya si Winnie at Vina at kasabay nun ay pagbagsak ng tubigan niya at dahil maluwag na ang takip nun na sana ay iinumin na niya, her bottled water container fell on the clean floor, it didn't broke off but the water spill on the floor.

Biglang naging tahimik. Cassiopeia still on her seat, staring at her water container na ubos na ang laman ng tubig nito. Wala siyang narinig na imik sa dalawang bratinelang kaklase na nasa harap din niya. Iilan lang silang naroon as her other classmates we're outside playing or in benches being taken care of their nannies.

But her moment of silent broke off when a familiar voice of her male classmate called her.

"Cassiopeia, here." On her right side, bumaling ng tingin si Cassiopeia rito. He was handing her his gray batman water bottle container. Nakabukas narin ang takip nito. Napangiti naman si Cassiopeia. She's thirsty, kaya tinanggap niya ito.

"Thank you, Kent." Ngumiti si Kent, nanatiling nakatayo sa gilid niyon habang umiinom siya bottle nito.

"Hmp!" The two brats infront of her hissed pero wala siya roong pake.

But little did she know, nasa likuran lang niya ang kaklaseng tahimik. Oliver who saw all the scenes, from the brats na panay lang ang pang-aaway at ang pagkalalag ng bottled water container ni Cass. And of course, ang biglang pagsulpot ni Kent.

Oliver was way too late. He was holding his superman bottled container, nakabukas ito at handa na sanang kulbitin kanina si Cassiopeia para ibigay rito dahil narinig niya ang kaninang sinabi nitong nauuhaw siya. But Kent already was there, appeared nowhere.

"You're welcome, Cassiopeia."

Oliver almost rolled his eyes kasabay ng pagbalik takip niya sa tubigan. Natuon nalang rin ang tingin niya sa dalawang bratinelang panay ang pang-aaway nito sa mga kaklase nilang babae at hindi ligtas doon si Cassiopeia, but Cassiopeia is way different, hindi katulad ng ibang kaklaseng babae na umiiyak agad at nang-aaway rin pabalik...Csssiopeia will just listen, composed and calm...and he likes it about her.

And Oliver also knew the reason kung bakit madalas itong pag-initan ng kaklaseng bratinela...it's because Cassiopeia is a pretty classmate. Halos lahat ng kaklase niyang lalaki, may crush rito. Kaya nga ito palagi ang muse sa klase and then...there's Kent.
