Jay-jay's POV
When you found out late that the exam was tomorrow. Then you have just a few hours to review then Kuya Angelo will lecture you.
Life is good!
I went to bed late and I woke up early. Kuya knew that we had an exam today so he woke me up.
When I got to the dining room to eat breakfast, Aries was already there and was eating quietly. He was staring at the table while chewing.
"Eat now Jay." Kuya ordered while reading the newspaper.
I sat down and got some food. I couldn't help but look at Aries' face. Even though he was bent over, I could see the bruises on his face.
"Did you get into a fight?" I asked.
He ignored me. He continued eating.
"That's what happens when you don't let anyone know you're going to the party. You get caught up in the fight." Kuya whispered.
Huh? Aries also went to the party and got into a fight? I guess Yuri and I didn't tell him that.
I don't know! Maybe he also punched people there. I just ate breakfast, I hadn't finished when Aries suddenly stood up and said goodbye to Kuya. He didn't even look at me.
There was another slap!
"Jay... Your exam is today, I'm expecting the same grade that you had before." Kuya said.
Oh, that's crazy! I wasn't the one who answered my last exam. I got a high grade, so I'm not that smart to get that grade again.
Should I just let Keifer answer it again?
After eating, I said goodbye to my brother and walked away. When I got to our corner, I saw Blue Eye's brother-----Percy!
But he suddenly got in his car and sped away. I tried to chase him.
"Percy! Wait a minute!" I shouted but he quickly disappeared.
Irritated!
I wanted to ask him a lot of questions. Now I've even thought of playing catch. What's even more annoying is that I looked for him on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, but nothing! My only hope is to talk to him, if he shows up again.
I just walked to school.
When I enter the gate, I feel like you're being watched and whispered to. I sighed because I couldn't hear their whispers. I just went straight to the room and as usual, Ci-N's face lit up.
"Good Morning!" he greeted me cheerfully.
"Good Morning too!" I replied and sat down in my seat.
I took out my notes and tried to review them. I managed to answer at least a little. The problem was that nothing came to my mind.
I was sobbing and looked into the void.
"Nothing came to my mind!" I said and I heard Ci-N laugh.
"Do you want me to copy you?" he offered me.
Copy you? Well, her grade on the first exam was also a bad one. I was wondering if he was really accelerated.
"You're the one who offered, you were a bad one in the past."
He smiled at me. The smile he always gave.
"I'm so smart..." he was bragging.
"Really."
I tried to review again. Now I regret not listening when the teachers were lecturing. Sir came with our test paper. I hid my notes and took out a ballpoint pen. Like before, one exam for all subjects. The test paper was handed out.
When I got mine----putcha!
I was already speechless on the first page. I didn't know what to answer. This time Sir didn't come out so I didn't have a chance to copy. Fate was cruel to me! I read the questions over and over again, hoping that someone would know the answer. Less than 10 minutes after we started answering, Ci-N suddenly stood up and handed her test paper to Sir Alvin.
How fast!
He returned to her seat and faced me with a big smile. She even winked at me. I winced. Her abnormality was back on. I turned my attention back to my test paper. There were questions that I knew the answers to, so my nervousness lessened. I would still have some points anyway. About 20pts! Hahaha...
A few minutes passed and Yuri handed in the paper. Keifer and Eman followed. They were so good! Huhuhuhuhu... I'm about to cry! That feeling of being behind your classmates. I don't like that!
I had no choice but to guess the answer. I sometimes get confused when it's hard to choose between the options. Half the class was already passing. I finished answering and handed my paper to Sir. He accepted it with a smile.
"I thought you were going to sleep again." Sir said. Wow! He knew that!
"I'm sick."
"Yeah... Keifer said so."
He said? Did he know I was sick that day? I looked at Keifer who was busy talking to Yuri. I went back to my seat and waited for the others to finish.
"What will you do if I get a 100?" Ci-N asked me. Tss. Asa!
"No... You won't get a 100."
"What if I do?" He insisted.
What would be a good thing to do?
"I'll treat you to a cafe near us." I replied.
"That's shallow... It's different."
"I'll dye my hair."
"Okay... I won't let you enter this school."
Oh, it's not allowed to have colored hair here. Unless it's natural.
"So what?"
Ci-N thought for a moment. I had a strong feeling that this was something silly that he was thinking. He'd only think about it in front of me. He suddenly smiled. A silly smile. That's what he said!
"You'll admit who your type is to all of us." He told me and clapping his hands.
That's easy for me. Anyone can I can teach.
"...Then you kiss her."
Oh my! I can't teach anyone anymore. It's like I don't want to anymore.
"Oh I don't want to!" I quickly answered her.
"Why? Are you scared?" Ci-N asked angrily.
I shook my head. "No, no!"
"Just admit that I can get a 100 on the grade."
I wanted to believe that she would get a 100, but it was really hard to believe.
"I don't want to!"
"Are you okay with our agreement?" he asked me.
After all, I could have agreed and not made a deal. But I didn't want to! I'd be proud! I don't believe in this Ci-N thing.
"Deal! But when you're a slut again, you'll study hard!"
He smiled at me and held out his hand to shake. I accepted it and we shook hands like business men. They had all passed their test papers. That means we can go home.
"Okay class! Your grades will be posted in the main building like before! Enjoy your semester break." Sir said and the snakes replied. "...Okay! You can go home!"
"YEEEEEEESSSSSS!!!" we all shouted.
I packed my things and walked away. We were walking together. I was listening to Rory and Rory's conversation when suddenly someone pulled my hair.
"YOU'RE SO CUTE!" Someone shouted.
"A-oh! F-let me go!" I shouted while trying to look at the one who was pulling my hair.
Freya shouted! "Let Jay-jay go!" "Fight Jay!" "Hey Freya!" "Go ahead! No more!"
The snakes and people around us screamed. I tried to pull my hair back but Freya's grip was tight. I felt like my scalp was going to come off.
"Let me go!" I ordered her.
"YOU'RE FUCKING FUCKING! KIKO WAS EXPELLED BECAUSE OF YOU!" she shouted back and continued to pull me.
Pvta! It hurts!
"I had nothing to do with that!"
"YOU'RE FUCKING FUCKING FUCKING!"
What connection does flirting have to expulsion? Freya was just looking for someone to blame.
Suddenly, some girls came up to us. Rakki and the Canvas 1 who was always with Grace before.
"LET JAY-JAY GO!" Rakki shouted and tried to remove Freya's hand.
I felt like my scalp was going to go bald from Freya's pulling.
"Freya! Stop it! She's not worth it!" Canvas 1 shouted.
SHe let go of me and Rakki immediately pushed me away. The Snakes also came towards me.
I could see the strands of my hair in his hand. I touched my scalp and-----the pain! Mud!
"You're amazing! Why are you doing this to me again?!" I asked him angrily.
"DUE TO YOUR ACTION, KIKO WAS EXPELLED!!" she shouted angrily at me.
"Kiko was expelled because he's stupid!" Rakki replied to him.
I thought that expulsion was just a rumor. It turned out to be true! I knew that what he did to me was the reason. I just didn't know who had found a way to complain and get the other one expelled so quickly.
I saw Aries approaching us. He looked at both of us and Freya.
"What's going on here?" He asked calmly.
I glared at Freya but she glared back at me.
Neither of us spoke until Rakki fell into silence.
"Freya attacked Jay-jay!" Rakki said and Freya's sharp gaze shifted to her.
"BECAUSE YOUR COUSIN IS SO CUTE!" the witch added.
"Hey! Stop it----"
"Jay! Shut up!" Aries shouted and cut me off. "...You're just making the situation worse!"
Stop it!
"I'm the one at fault again?! Is that right?!" I asked annoyed and glared at him. "...You're even blaming me for the increase in gas prices!"
"Could you please----"
"Aries! At least once make me feel like we're cousins!" I shouted.
I just felt tears welling up in my eyes. Anger! I was forced to walk quickly away from them. I won't cry in front of Freya or any of them.
