Chapter 1


"Babe, sabay ba tayong uuwi mamaya?" bumaling ako sa boyfriend ko na kasama kong pumasok ng campus. He's looking at his phone.


"Babe!" medyo iritado kong tawag. Sino ba ka-text ng isang ito?


"Huh? Ano iyon Zarah?" he blinked twice. I saw how he locked his phone immediately.


"Sino ba ka-text mo?"ngayon, naiirita na rin.


"Tropa ko."


I glared at him.


"What? Come on, babe. Ano iyong tanong mo?"


"Ang sabi ko, hahatid mo ba ako mamaya sa bahay?"


"Of course."


"Okay."


That was Daniel, my boyfriend. Every day before going to school he fetches me in the house and drove me here in school. We are both freshmen. Nagkakilala lang kami this year and then he courted me and eventually we became boyfriend and girlfriend. He is a mechanical engineering student.


Hinatid niya muna ako sa aking first class bago nagpaalam sa akin at pupunta na rin sa kanyang first class.


When I entered the classroom I saw the glares of my blockmates. I didn't mind them though. I don't know why they are acting like this. I mean, I don't get why they are mad at me just because Daniel is my boyfriend.


Tutol sila sa aming dalawa at hindi ko alam kung bakit. They say Daniel is the biggest jerk in the campus.  I know, those girls are just crazy for him. Katulad ng iba, crush din nila ang boyfriend ko. Well, I must say that Daniel is a pretty guy. Kahit na mga ibang courses at other year levels ay naa-attract din sa kanya.


I chose to sit at my favorite spot—at the corner of the room. I plugged my earphones on and watch anime. This is all I do while we're waiting for the instructor to arrive. I don't have friends because of Daniel. Really? Dahil lang doon ayaw na nila ako kaibiganin? Hindi ko talaga maintindihan.


While I was enjoying watching one punch man, someone suddenly sat beside me. I paused the video and look at this someone and to my surprised, it was Shaina.


I sighed and then I resume what I was watching. Napasinghap ako nang tanggalin niya mula sa aking kaliwang tainga ang earphones ko. I glared at her. Ano na naman ang problema ng isang ito?


Nagtaas siya ng kilay at sumilay sa kanyang labi ang mga ngiting nakakairita. I let a deep sigh first before facing her. I saw how my classmates' eyes darted on us.


"Amin na 'yan," mahinahon kong sabi bago inabot ang earphones na nasa kanyang kamay, pero mas lalo niyang nilayo ito sa akin. I bit my lower lip.


"Anong problema mo?" now I'm pissed. Her brows arched more.
