'I'm sorry I was in a hurry...'
WALKING slowly towards the classroom while making sure I won't bump to anyone.Not wanting to cause any trouble in the morning.I am very much aware of those cynical stares.I was just meter away from my room and I thought I am safe for the morning.When suddenly...
A tall student bumped right to my face.I stumbled backwards.The force is too much that I failed to balance myself.My butt hit the concrete floor of the corridor.I close my eyes irritatedly.I said 'no trouble in the morning' but here I am.I'm really pathetic.
Series of scenes flashed through my head.Like how will the kids throw things at my face and called me 'pathetic' 'loser' and such.I can imagine them laughing at me and bullying me everday.I hate this life!
With my eyes closed I waited for the bark of laughters.Their taunting words and such.But it didn't came.The crowd is silent.That made my heart race more.I am sure by now that'll happen,but what's happening?
Nang lumipas ang ilang minuto ng katahimikan tumayo na ako at agad na tumalikod.Tatakbo na sana ako nang may biglang humaklit sa braso ko.I stopped at that moment and I shivered in fear.I can hear murmurs and whispers among student.
"Excuse me..."a deep voice utter.His voice...I can sense something from it.Danger.A great peril.
Hindi ko alam kung gaano ako kamalas para mapunta sa sitwasyong ito.I turn to him forebodingly.I know.I'll just face my fate for today.
When I fully recognize his face my eyes almost fell on the floor.With those menacing and sharp looking almond-shaped eyes,tall nose like a foreigner,lips with a perfect curve ,thin and sexy.With his hair like a normal school boy,in half and fall side ways.He's Adonis-like.My instinct told me to pull my arms from his hold.I quickly bow my head and be at my lowest.
"I'm sorry!I'm really sorry!I didn't saw you!I swear I didn't!I apologize!"I said constantly without pause.Oh my God!What have I done?
I repeatedly said sorry and ask for apology.I don't want to be involve in further trouble.My life already suck.How much more getting involve with the governor's son.No!
I'm doomed!
He chuckled softly but it seems like dark to me.I look up to him and he seems amused.Amuse that I look pathetic right now?Maybe.
He's lips turned grim and asked me,"Are you alright?"
And the stupidness got me.Is he seriously asking me that?He's probably dense.
"I'm sorry!"I uttered again softly.Hoping that he'll accept my apology.
He held my arms again and I froze literally.His touch sent shiver down to my spine.It feels like I was stupefied.He gently squeezed my arms.I look down and I saw a little bruise in my right arm.Oh? I probably got it when I fell earlier.He softly touch it and look at me.
"I'm sorry I was in a hurry.Can you come with me?"he spoke fluently.He is really the governor's son.
The crowd gasp at shock too.They're maybe wondering why would the governor's son ask me that.I am surprised too,dear.
"H-huh?"I asked stupidly.
I mean I'm already at awe that he said sorry,why ask me to come with him?Oh!Maybe to the guidance office?To report me?Hala!
Before I could ask another question he pull me towards him and walk fastly.I started praying and ask for some mercy.
Suspension.Expulsion.Guidance Office.Father.This are the things I am imagining.My chest is in chaos.My heart's beating stupidly wild.
But I was more shock when I saw where we were heading...
