Our first semester was over, moving on to second semester and that means other kalbaryo for us. I mean sa kanila lang pala, I'm not them though. Maraming bagong nadagdag at umalis sa department namin and now, Jian here is telling me some fresh gossip about a new student who's coming here today. Bryson Kim is still a nuisance to me just like Cairo Nueva, I've been spending time with them for quite some time but I still can't get used to their existence in my life.

Matagal ko na silang kasama sa bahay and because of them? My mom's condition became a bit better than before, for the first time in her life time? She spoke like a normal person again at dahil yon sa walang sawa nilang pakikipag usap sa kaniya. Bumabalik pa rin ang nakakairitang imagination niya minsan pero it's tolerable now, hindi na yon katulad ng dati.

"May gwapong magta-transfer sa department natin ngayon!! Mukha siyang artista at nakaka in love na kaagad siya kahit hindi mo pa siya nakikilala!!". Jianna and her exaggerated description towards someone. Why the hell would I bother to care about him or her? Is he or she gonna help me with my studies? Untangled the weird shit na nang yayari sa pamilya namin? No, right?

I can hear her, sinasadya ko lang talagang panggap na walang naririnig para manahimik siya sandali but I was wrong. She's just talking nonsense over and over and over again, she's definitely my best friend but sometimes I feel like feeding her some rocks or throw her outside just to make her shut up. Unfortunately, I love my best friend despite her cuckoo attitude.

"Tulala ka nanaman sa isang tabi? Seriously? You're so lucky dahil wala tayong teacher ngayon, if we have? You're so done and suspended ka nanaman but this time? Hindi na isa o dalawang araw". Paalala niya sa'kin. Her role is to wake me up and disturb my life, silence is like a spell para mamatay siya but unfortunately immune na rin siya doon.

"I'm fine and I heard everything you said just now, you moron". Sagot ko sa kaniya. A writer can memorize her stories but can't remember the birth date of her own characters, I'm not paying attention to her gossip because it's not that important. Ano namang pakealam ko sa kung sino mang magtra transfer sa department namin?

Is he the son of Mr. President? Anak ba siya ni Dr. Jose Rizal? Anak ba siya ng bayani? I don't give a damn kung sinong parents niya o kung saang lupalop siya nang galing okay? Isa pa, idadagdag lang naman siya ni Jian sa crush list niya eh. I don't know kung pang ilan si Bryson at Cairo but for all I know? Nasa hundred plus na sila.

Jianna is a great human diary, she knew how to keep secrets. Siya rin ang unang naka alam ng problema ni Ember, that bitch is just in love with a casanova. At first ayaw niyang maniwala sa'min so I seeked help, nag patulong ako kay Cairo at Bryson. I knew they'd help so why not take advantage? Minsan lang naman to eh and it's really important.

That jerk is two timing, na-fall na si Ember and that's the problem. Thank God we managed to prove na totoo ang mga pinag sasabi namin ni Jian, we saw that jerk and he's busy making out with someone inside the janitors lounge. Hindi kaagad namin naisip na kumuha ng video because we thought na random dude lang yon but no, it's him.

We succeed so Ember is currently moving on from him, we're helping her by taking her out. Going shopping and gumagala kami almost every after school para malibang siya ng todo hanggang sa makalimutan niya na kung sino man yon, mabuti na nga lang hindi pa kami huli at nagawa pa namin siyang tulungan.
