Chapter 16

This chapter is quite long, I wasn't able to proofread. Please do tell me if you see any corrections. Thank you!

He went back to normal, to his light and carefree self. I'm happy that he's getting it together and I won't get tired of helping him compose himself. Kahit ilang beses lang kami nakakapag-usap sa isang araw ay ayos lang dahil alam kong nag-aaral siya. I should also be studying because next week is finals and hell week, kinakabahan ako kahit huwebes pa lang, kailangan ko nang mag-aral, I need to give my all because it's the final exam, mas mahirap na rin kasi ang mga problems.

"Hindi ko gets yung number 3 sa quiz. Ano ba gagawin do'n?" sabi ni Ari habang naglalakad kami palabas ng Ruaño. Katatapos lang kasi ng quiz namin at papunta na kami sa carpark ngayon para kumain.

"Naguluhan nga rin ako sa tanong pero ang ginawa ko..." sagot naman ni Navi at in-explain kay ari ang ginawa niya.

Wala kaming naging klase noong Friday kaya pumunta na lang kami sa condo ni Navi para mag-group study. We understand the modules but there are parts that are very confusing, si Gab at Navi ang madalas taga-explain, mas madaling intindihin kapag sila na yung nagturo.

"Hoy Ariadna pa-cellphone cellphone ka pa dyan!" puna ni Navi kay Ari dahil pangiti-ngiti habang nakatingin sa phone.

"Sorry, wag ka na mainggit Navs." pang-aasar ni Ari bago itinago ang cellphone.

"Lul, nag-aaral din 'yon ba't ako manggugulo." sabi naman ni Navi, Ari rolled her eyes and mocked Navi.

"Hindi pa ba tayo tapos?" singit naman ni Xav. Nagmamadali na naman 'to klaseng may lakad.

"Wag mo na kulitin 'yon acads over you daw tol." biro ni Quin. Sinuntok naman ni Xav si Quin sa braso.

"Gets ko na naman 'yan." sabi pa ni Xav.

"Edi paturo idle!" Ari said and went closer to Xav. Itinuro nga ni Xav at nagbigay pa ng ilang tips para hindi nakakalito.

We started at 10 am and finished at about 10 pm too. This day is quite draining but I learned and understood almost everything. Kaunting self-review pa bukas pagkatapos ay pahinga sa Linggo para hindi masobrahan ang utak ko sa aral, baka kung kailan mismong exam ay saka ako ma-mental block dahil kulang sa tulog at puro aral.

I sent Lex a message saying that I'm already home from the group study, he immediately replied that he still has a lot of readings so he'll probably stay up all night. Tumawag din siya saglit sa'kin at sinabi niyang hindi pa rin daw nagigising si tita pero stable naman.

I put my phone in airplane mode so that there would be no distractions, I informed Lex beforehand that I won't be receiving his texts and calls for the rest of the day or even until tomorrow.

I spent the whole day cleaning my unit and studying, of course I rest every few hours. After reviewing my major and minor subjects, I cleansed my face then went to sleep.

Maaga akong nagising kaya nagsimba muna ako pagkatapos no'n ay kumain ako at bumalik na rin sa unit ko. I turned the airplane mode off then saw a few messages from Lex and my parents, asking how I am. Tinawagan ko si mom at dahil Sunday naman ngayon baka hindi sila busy.
