Chantal:
It was a gloomy monday for me, as I turned my another journey into reality. They said that high school life is a happiest life in a teenagers life, but not for me.
It was my first day of class where I don't know someone in this place. I was a freshmen high school girl with no friends to hang out with, I was being transferred to a school where my elementary friends wasn't there and everything was new to me. I don't even know who I was to talked too, or where should I go.
All I know in this place was I was being transferred to a prestigious school that can gives me more knowledge and discipline.
As I roamed my eyes I saw differents faces, some of them are happy while having a chit chats with their friends, some are noggy but most of it I find a nuisance in them. It feel likes they doesn't know how cruel life is, and they only got to know how to smile in a small thing, that made my eyes roll in annoyance.
I wonder how would it felt to be in their footstep, like you don't need to worry and you didn't need to think the where's bout .
Because, I never felt those feelings, I don't even know how would it felt being cared by my own parent. Being cheered up in my downfall moments.
All I felt was being unloved and uncared by them, they don't even bother to know if it's my birthday or even my special moments in school. What worst is they never look up on me as their child, they just saw me as a failure one.
I admit that I am not good in everything, I don't even know how to play a gulf and violin but I have my bests. I know how to write poetries, stories. I know how to play guitar but they didn't bother to see my best, they always see my worst and that pained me big time.
I only wished to be loved and cared by them, but I can't even get one of those from them. I felt sad knowing that they value their business than me, their daughter .
" You must be Chantal Montecillo?" an old woman asked me.
If that woman didn't asked me, I don't even know where my mind go. Thinking such thing that won't ever happen.
"I nodded" as response to her question. As I look into her I got annoyed, she was smiling widely like an i***t.
Even though she smile and treat me in a good way I never got a moment in my head to smile back to her.
" Follow me, let me give you a tour in our school it would be your 4 years home in this field called student life."
I just followed the old women and let my eyes observed, and make my brain expertise the place.
I got amazed how big this school is, but I don't even get it. There school is huge but it has a gloomy sorrounding.
I want to ask why but my mouth didn't cooperate to talked. I was little bit anxious if this old woman got annoyed or what, she just talked like everyone was listening to her.
The old woman continue talking and talking showing me their best place to study , the library, cafeteria, gymnasium,laboratory room and more. Feel like this woman introduced me the world of studying in our capability.
The old woman stop in front of the school, or they usually called it the oval. She stand and look at me blankly.
" That lane was going to the entrance where you stood up earlier, the second one was bound to cafeteria and the exit. If your a commuter you can used that one. This way was on the parking lot ." She said in a low voice, I think she's tired of touring me around. Who would it be, their school is not an ordinary school.
"Thank you for touring me around".
"You're welcome, it's our duties to tour the new students who enrolled in our school. This would be all for this day, and you can met your new classmate later, by for now. And good luck for your first day."
I just stare her in the eyes, and nod to her.
Nothing just happened in this day, nothing special to be proud off that can make me smile. If your going to ask me, what happen upon meeting my new classmates. Well it's nothing, nothing less important but a boredom tho.
