Antithetic's Tale

Chapter 25

"Oh, someone posted on her f*******: account that she really hates school." Said Professor Antonette.

"Another one posted that school is senseless." Said a professor.

"Teacher's are teaching things that won't help us to prolong our lives, another girl said." Said Sir Arthur. All the professors are holding cellphones in their hands and reading on a website what.

We all sat on the ground and listened together to what the professors were reading ahead. I don't know what are they doing, I don't have any idea. What do we know about people who express their resentment on social networking sites?

"Do you hate school?" Professor Antonette asked seriously. I looked at him seriously but he was not looking at me but at the other class.

"No ma'am." I immediately looked at the group of women who answered then. Liar.

"Dwight?" Prof. Antonette turned her gaze to Dwight. I looked at Dwight and saw him looking at me as if he had not heard what prof Antonette had said. I averted my eyes because of deprivation, many also looked at me because they saw that Dwight's attention was focused on me. What's up with him?

"Athena?" Prof. Antonette looked at me as if I had to explain to her. I stood up because I really wanted to answer his question.

"Yes, I do." The other class sighed at my answer. They don't know me, no one does. Maybe my classmates are used to me so they just look at me and wait for my senseful answer. While the other class I just saw was whispering and looking at me curiously. I know, no one dares to answer what's on their minds. Everyone is hiding and pretending.

People are like that. They do not say the things they really want to say, the things that are in their brain. They do not want to say this and lie just to make other people like them. They are all pretending to be someone for them to be noticed. They are hiding themselves for them to be appreciated. Poor people.

"Why do you hate school, Clarke?" Serious question of a professor. Why does he call me by the last name I do not really own?

"Do you think that what you teach is always good?" Back I asked them. They smiled at me with a fake and forced smile. Why don't they just frown at me and shout at me? Why do they even have to give me a fake smile? Woeful people.

"Of course, we do." Answer of the adviser of the other class.

"You're wrong. Your rules are awful, your systems are dreadful." I told them. The other class sighed again.

"School is responsible enough for those crimes and deaths." I told them seriously. Who are they to say that everything they teach is beautiful.

"In your classes, you insist that we are all equal and the same. The whole humanity is fair in everything. But look at your system humans, why do you put a star section? Lowest section? In that kind of system, you can see that people are immediately different. What is your basis? Knowledge. That is what you are looking at, the capacity of a person's brain. Now tell me, why are you doing that? " I feel lost in everything again. What is happening to me?

Everyone just looked at me and I didn't like what he was doing. I hate attentions. I hate them and I will always do.

"We do that because intelligent people deserve to be at the top." Answer of a professor who does not know how to think.

"See? Only the intelligent people deserve to be at the top? Really? Is that what you call equality? You bring together the people you think are high and the people you think are worthless? Making us feel that we are very different to the others? How can the world be equally and fair if you are teaching that kind of thing? The school provides a big part of a human's life. Now tell me, why are people not equal ? " I said at length. I want to lecture them, I want to shout out my thoughts. I want them to think as I think. They must use their brain's capacity.

The teachers who were listening to me were silent, they were all thinking and most of them were just bowing. I am a student but why am I lecturing this elders?

"Who is responsible for the undying corruption? You, your systems and your rules." Somewhere I told them. I can feel Dwight looking at me as if he hadn't been removed before. I was reluctant to speak because of him.

"People learn to be competitive because of that honor system. So everyone wants them to be at the top because they realized in school that they need to be at the top. Do you think that his system challenges people to persevere in their studies? You are wrong. They thought they should always be the one who lifts, everyone now wants the highest and most powerful. " I said more. I was really annoyed by Dwight's stare so I looked at him badly. He was still looking at me and seemed really unmoved.

"All of you, I know you want, you are the one at the top, you should raise someone, you lower them so that you are not overwhelmed. Admit it humans, you really want to be at the top. You are all selfish, you want You are always like that. Who here wants to be the one at the bottom? Nothing, right? Because you only think of yourself. Because since our childhood, we realized that there is someone at the top, and as a person, you want the at the highest. " I said, everyone around me bent over and thinking. I hate explaining myself but I love explaining my mind.

"Selfish humans, am I right? Now, how can we contain equality if we all want to be above, if we continue to lower other people?" I sat down after I said that. Everyone is quiet and seems to be thinking. This is what I want to do, to make them understand the content of my brain.

"We just want to teach all of you for you to be successful, Athena." I smiled at what a professor said.

"Really? Is it really about me? Or about you? Ganito, let us say that, I will remove your monthly payment, but you will continue teaching us. Gagawin mo ba? Of course not, it is all about money. Oo, There is a part of you that you want us to be successful in the future, but this is your job. You are doing this for money. Will you continue teaching us without money? No. " I sat down and told them. Am I the lecturer here?

"Yes, I admit it, I won't be teaching you without money." Professor Antonette suddenly said so everyone looked at him. Money rules everyone.

"Several people care, but almost all of them are just curious about you. You, do you really know anything about us? What will happen to us? Of course you have. Why? Because when we are not successful, you are to blame. I salute you for teaching things that we should know. It's just that, I hate your systems and rules, professors. " I blinked and looked in the other direction, I was tired of speaking so I would not speak anymore.

Just shut up everyone. No one can dictate me and order me what to do. This is my life not anyone's, this is my future not yours. I hate everyone's mouth.

"Okay." Said Sir Arthur while clapping.

"That is Athena's perception about school, how about you?" Sir Arthur pointed to a woman I had no intention of recognizing.

"I love school." Napa facepalm nalang ako. When will people learn to bring out what is in their brains? how long will they hide in the person they are not. They always seek for freedom and liberation. But they are not setting themselves free, how can they get the liberation they want?

"Of course, we know from you the things we should know, we are definitely learning from you." He answered, is he elementary to answer that kind of answer? Doesn't he know how to mature.

I don't even love myself, can I still go to school?

"We just want to know what you have in mind, what your perspectives are on our professors. Athena, don't worry, what you said is okay and I admit, I realized what you said." Said a professor.

I will never worry about anything. I do not know you or anyone else. I just want my thoughts to be understood by people. I do not need you to live.

"Get up everyone. Get ready for your first task." We all stood, they were still quiet and seemed to be still thinking. That's right people, think, think and think.

I stood up and it was as if nothing had happened before. Everyone is still looking at me, I don't care.

"You will be divided into 4 groups, containing nine members each. This will be your group until the retreat house." Sir Arthur explained and looked at me as he mentioned the retreat house. I know what he has in mind now.

"Pick your own group." He added. Daldalita and I will definitely be in a group again.

Dwight approached me as he looked at me seriously and had no expression on his face.

"I want you to be mine." He suddenly said that everyone who heard him was shocked. Everyone stopped, even though Dwight didn't say it loudly, everyone still seemed to hear it.

"What?" I asked with a frown. What is the problem with a to?

He looked around the two of us, the two of us in the attention of all the students.

"I-i mean, I want us to be in one group." He stuttered a little. People scratched their necks and went back to what they were doing. I thought it was something ... great.

"Okay." I said at the same time looking at the chatter and chicken that stunned Dwight. I really don’t understand which of the three they like.

"There are four of us." I told them.

"Huh?" At the same time, they said that they were soft.

"Five more." Dwight said which caused the two noises behind me to smile. They are crazy.

"I'll go with you." said a man I answered in our previous debate with prof. Antonette. Miraculously I still remember him. What is happening to me?

Two other women and two men joined us. We are complete and even the other three groups look complete.

"Choose your team's name." Said a professor.

"Paradox." Dwight said, he did not even ask us by name. I didn't know anything there but his name was okay.

"The leader?"

"Dwight will be our leader." I smiled and said to sir Arthur. Dwight stared at me because of what I said. I don't want responsibilities so I preceded them.

"You are free to go anywhere but you have to get here in full. You will be having different stations and the first one to bring your flag will be the winner." Said Sir Arthur as he pulled out small papers.

"The paper will guide you." He said at once handing the team leaders a small role. I read Dwight's hand and it was written on it.

"START!" At the same time as he shouted, we ran into the forest. We ran together until I could no longer see the others we were not in.

The paper will guide us, in what way?
