Chapter 2: Who's the new President?
"President election for this year!"
Ang tahimik na classroom ay nabalot agad ng daldalan. Some students started pointing their fingers on someone else.
"Dapat ibang student na naman." Uzumaki rolled her finger on her hair.
"Yeah." Bulong ni Carie. Sa bigla naman naputol ang daldalan sa ingay ng kalabog sa teacher's desk.
"We need to be serious this year. You guys are senior high schoolers now and many underclass students will start respecting you." Bumuntong hininga sya.
"It's gonna be hectic soon since ngayon marami na kayong mga gawain. So pick the perfect student you think is perfect for this role."
Marami silang nag sitaasan ng kamay. Giovanna looked through the students with her ruler pointing. She squinted her eyes at agad na itinuro ito sa babaeng nasa gilid.
"Yes Ms. Ruez?" Tumayo ang babae habang nginunguya ang bubble gum in a weird way with her tounge rolling and clicking.
"Didn't i warned you little lady? That eating gums on a lecture is not allowed?" The rebellious teen rolled her eyes.
"This is not a lecture tho." Napailing nalang si Giovanna
Hindi ko na kaya.
"Wala pa akong almusal so..." Bumuntong hininga nalang si Giovanna.
"So who do you think fits this position?"
"Me." Hindi man lang sya nag dalawang isip. Nagsipalakpakan naman ang mga kaklase nya. Tumayo sya at nag lakad sa harap.
"Ms. Ruez, no voting for your self." Hindi sya nakinig at kinuha ang chalk sa gilid at nagsimulang magsulat sa blackboard. Giovanna took an another sigh.
Marie Stacey Antoinette Ruez
She turned infront and winked. "Okay." Tinuro ni Giovanna ang gilid at agad naman sumunod si Stacey and even striked a pose.
Itinaas agad nila ang mga kamay nila.
"Mr. Catipunan?"
"Pinipili ko po tong kaibigan ko." Nilingon nya ang kaibigan nyang natutulog sa armchair table. "Alam kong fitting sya sa position na to." Habang nagpipigil sya sa tawa nya. "Si Jhadrick Moises Melecio, Ma'am!"
Nagsihiyawan naman ang mga kaklase nya at dahil sa lakas nun, ang natutulog na lalaki ay nagising. He looked around and saw his classmates staring at him. Napuno nang lito ang ulo nya. Nagsitawanan rin ang iba.
"AHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Malaki ang boses ni Uzumaki. Agad syang napatayo at ang mga kilay nya na halos magkadikit na dahil sa pagkarinig ng tawa ni Uzumaki.
"Gusto mo bang mabugbog?!" Galit na sigaw nya. Hininto naman sya nang mga kaibigan nya na sugurin ang natatawang babae sa upuan nya.
"Stop that Mr. Melecio and get in here." Sabay turo ni Giovanna gamit ang stick nya sa tabi ni Stacey.
"Anong gagawin ko dyan?"
"You're a candidate to become the president for this section." Tinulak naman sya ng mga kaklse nya.
"Just go!"
"Wag ka mag alala ibo-boto ka namin!"
His anger returned again.
"Pumunta ka na sa harap yawa!"
Don't tell me - Si Jin or Jhadrick Moises thought it was Uzumaki who was playing with him, nanlinsik ang mata nya at nakatanggap ng f**k you sign kay Uzumaki.
"Ms. Yamamoto!" Uzumaki rolled her eyes and turned at the window on her left. Lumakad si Jin papunta sa harap. Kahit na galit sya nababalutan ng pula dahil sa hiya ang mukha nya. Getting ashamed that he's infront of everyone.
The years that they spent together, they all know that getting picked into the candidate of presidency is very embarrassing. They cannot hadle such things, and their demon classmates will f**k everything up.
Nagsitaasan na naman sila ng
kamay. "Ms. Jestin?"
The blonde girl sat up. Itinuro nya agad ang babaeng nakayuko. "I choose Elissa May Alejo." Agad nabalot ng pula ang mukha ni Elise. She got embarrassed when all of her classmates turned to her.
"Bagay na bagay sya sa position nya."
"With her money we could do everything!"
"We'll rule the school!!"
"Boboto ako sakanya."
"Me too."
"Ms. Alejo?" Elise gripped the comb on her hands. Stacy, who's infront clicked her tounge.
Damn that b***h .
"We have three now, 2 more." Giovanna picked again.
"Yes Ms. Martinez?" Agad na tumayo ang napili. With her eyes closed, she smirked.
"Whirlly Yamamoto." isang nakakabingi na ingay ang narinig sa likod.
"Damn you Reze! I'll f*****g kill you!" Agad kinuha ni Power ang nahulog na armchair.
"Language Ms. Yamamoto. Now halika na dito."
"Hell nah, y'all can suck my ass!" She went back on her sit with arm closed and eyes closed. She put her legs on a 4.
That was the last straw.
"The language Ms. Yamamoto! I remind you that this is school! And not a place where you can cuss anything! Learn to respect! At halika na dito bago ko tatawagin ang Kuya mo!"
The word Kuya got her weak on the knees. Sa isip na makita ang galit na mukha ng Kuya nya ay nag bigay ng sakit sa ulo nya. Kinagat nya ang labi nya at nahihiyang nag lakad sa harap. Giovanna knows too well that Uzumaki's brother is her only weakness. May takot sya sa Kuya nya.
Si Jin na nasa gilid ay nag labas ng isang malademonyo na tawa. Uzumaki glared at him and mouthed.
'I'll kill you too'
But Jin was not fazed he was only smiling like an idiot.
"And the last is? Okay Mr. Cameron."
"I choose Botan." Biglang tumahimik ang classroom. Uzumaki, Jin and Stacey gulped in sync. Kahit na ayaw nila sa position na President pero ang takot nila kay Botan ay malaki. And Elise on the side is okay with it, since Botan is afraid of her and what she can do but Elise doesn't know of this.
Yawa! - Uzumaki
Hindi ko to gusto pero hindi namin kailangan ng maraming rules sa loob ng maliit na classroom nato - Jin
I hope Botan will win - Elise
I will make a rule - Stacey
Tumayo si Botan sa upuan nya at nag lakad papunta sa harp. The innocent looking boy was enough to silence them all up. He doesn't look scary but the way he rule over is.
Im probably gonna have a cheeseburger this lunch - Botan
___ACT 2___
The three went back to their seat in defeat. They know they're f****d up with Botan being the President again.
"It's hard to be a delinquent in this room." Nagpipigil ng tawa na sabi ni Carie pagkatapos makita ang mga mukha ng tatlo.
"You bet it do." Uzumaki claimed with tears on her eyes as she slammed her face on her table.
With votes Botan won.
3 - Stacey | Only her friends voted for her. Alam ng mga kaklase nya na if she rules, everything will be s**t.
5 - Jin | His only circle of friends voted for him
10 - Stacey | Mabigat ang pasasalamat nya na hindi sya nanalo. All the students that sweared they're gonna vote for her switched to Botan.
1 - Uzumaki | Only Power voted.
21 - Botan | Many voted, because he's a good and scary leader.
