You Belong With Me

New Friends

Sabrina's Pov

I was sitting here in the cafeteria alone. Eating lunch when a pretty girl approach me.

"Hi" she said. "Pwede bang maki share ng table?"

I hesitantly nod at her. Is she going to bully me? Nag antay ako ng kahit anong something bad na sasabihin niya sa kin. Pero tahimik lang siya na umupo sa harapan ko.

She silently sipped her iced tea. Napansin ko na parang ang lalim ng iniisip niya.

"Something Wrong?" I asked. Alam ko hindi kami close, pero siguro naman di niya mamasamain yung pagtatanong ko diba?

"I hate those three."

Sinundan ko ng tingin ang tinuro niya there I saw him. Miko with his friends Tyrone Dela Merced and Prince Jyrone Fonatanillia...

Ilang araw pa lang ako sa University na ito pero kilala ko na sila agad. Who wouldn't? Eh sila lang naman ang pinaka sikat at pinaka kinakatakutang mga nilalang sa University na ito.

Tyrone Dela Merced the notorious playboy. His family owns the largest shipping lines and airlines in the country.

Prince Jyrone Fonatanillia the leader of their group. His family owns this University and the Fontanillia business empire. No one dared to pissed him or he/she will be dead.

and syempre last but not the least.

My Best Friend.

Mikhail George Saavedra the basketball heartthrob. Their family owns the largest hotel and restaurant chains in the country.

"Why do you hate them?" Curios na tanong ko. It's my first time to encounter a girl student who doesn't adore those three popular students.

At mukhang ang laki pa ng galit niya sa tatlong ito.

"I hate their guts. Kala mo mga kung sino. They walk here in this university as if they own the world, as if walang makakatalo sa kanila. They looked down to people who are not in their circle. Now tell me, Isn't my reason enough to despised them?"

I amusingly smiled at her. "Hindi ka ba natatakot na baka ipagkalat ko ang mga sinasabi mo? Tapos bigla ka na lang sugudin ng mga fan girls nila dito?"

"You won't do that." She sipped in her ice tea and looked as me as if sure na sure sa sinabi niya.

"How can you be so sure?" I asked.

"When I first saw you here eating alone in the cafeteria. I knew you were different."

Napayuko ako sa sinabi niya. Right I'm not pretty like those girls who were studying here.

"No, no what I mean is..."

Mukhang nahalata niya ata ang iniisip ko. She smiled at me a genuine one.

"You're different in a good way. You are not like those bitches here in our school na walang ibang inisip kundi magpapansin sa tatlong ungoy na yan."

Natawa naman ako sa sinabi niya.

"You really hated those three boys, aren't you?"

She didn't answer my question but instead she held my hand.

"You know what? I like to you. "

Nanlaki ang mga mata ko. Wag niyang sabihin na sa ganda niyang yan tibo siya?

"Sorry Miss, pero hindi tayo talo."

I frowned when she laughs at me. "Know what? Your funny! I mean I like you to be my friend. Anyway, I'm Bella, Bella Real and you are?

My heart warmed in what she said. I didn't expect that a pretty girl like her would wanted to be friends with an ugly nerd like me. She is so kind I like her also.

"I'm Sabrina Shane Madrigal but you can call me Sab. And I like you also to be my friend." I shyly said

“Great,ipapakilala kita kay Nicole." She then grabbed my hand and excitedly and drag me out the cafeteria.

"Who's Nicole?"

"My best friend. Believe me matutuwa siya pag nakilala ka niya ."

We were in the student's lounge ng tumigil siya. "Wait for me here ah. Hanapin ko lang siya.

Umupo na lang ako sa isa sa mga bench sa student lounge ng may lumapit sakin na group of girls. Look like they are one of the bullies.

"Look what we have here? A very ugly nerd."

"Like Yuck! What is she doing here?"

"Ang sakit niya sa mata eew!"

To my horror bigla na lang ako sinampal ng isa . Sabay Hila sa buhok ko dahilan para mapatingala ako sa kanya.

"Umalis ka na sa WU! Hindi bagay dito ang mga panget na tulad mo!"

"Hey you three!"

Sabay sabay kaming napalingon sa direksiyon na pinagmula ng ng boses.

Isang maganda pero may pagka boyish ang style na babae ang nakita ko. She had this disapproving smirk written on her face.

"Wag ka makialam dito! Kung ayaw mong madamay!" sabi ng humila sa buhok ko. Pero mukhang hindi naman natakot si boyish girl instead mapang asar na ngumiti pa ito.

"Alam niyo ba na bullying ang gingawa niyo? Siguro naman aware kayo sa anti bullying act? Right? Or do you want me to sue you three para maging aware kayo?"

"And who do you think you are?"

"Alexandria Nicole Alvarez" Namilog ang mga mata ng tatlo.

"You mean...."

"Yes, the one and only, or do you want me three to elaborate? Heiress of Alvarez group, grand daughter of Senator Leonardo Alvarez. Now get of my sight kung ayaw niyong magdilim ang paningin ko sa inyong tatlo!"

Nahihintakutan namang nag si alisan ang tatlo bago ako muling tumingin kay Nicole.

"Are you alright? Good thing dumating agad ako. Those bitches! Mga wala talagang magawa!"

Tumango na lang ako. She seemed nice but in a scary way. Isa lang ang masasabi ko I don't wanna messed up with with this girl. Pero teka Nicole,

Siya kaya ang tinutukoy ni Bella?

"Nicole! Andito ka lang pala kanina pa kita hinahanap. Saan ka ba galing? And don't you even dare na magpalusot alam kong kanina pa tapos ang klase mo!"

I smiled, mukhang asar na asar ang bagong dating na si Bella pero halata naman na concerned sya sa kaibigan.

"Well I was wondering around when I bumped with this cute girl na binubully. You know how I hate bullies!" Inakbayan pa ako ni Nicole.

Tumingin naman si Bella na lumiwanag ang expression nung nakita ko pero saglit lang yun dahil biglang naging worried ang aura nito.

"Binully ka? Sorry dapat pala sinamahan na kita."

Wait, magkakilala ba kayo?"Nicole asked. Bella just nod happily saka naki akbay na din sa kin with her on my left side and Nicole in the right side.

"Yes, she is my new friend Sabrina Shane Madrigal. You don't mind in befriending her, don't you?"

Inalis ni Nicole ang pagkaka akbay niya sakin na ikinalungkot ko. Mukhang ayaw niya ng kaibigan na nerd at panget na katulad ko.

But to my surprised...

She warmly hugged me...

"Sure. I love her..."

"Me too." Segunda naman ni Bella na nakagiti ngayon sa kin. Sabay lumapit at inakbayan kami pareho ni Nicole.

"Simula ngayon we three are the best of friends"

Muntik na ako mapaiyak out of joy. At least kahit na ayaw na akong maging best friend ni Miko at least I have my new set of best friends na magbibigay saya sa buhay ko.
