I firmly stood back to hundreds of students listening to my presentation as I explained the essence of concentrating and prioritising the study first.
"Do you believe that there are tones of genius students who do stupid and idiotic decisions?" I asked walking back in forth in front of the huge projector. “Aren't you all aware that some of you are already doing that?" I added."I beg to disagree, Ms. Neufeld," Cuts by Ms. Lee, she is our Filipino-Chinese class salutatorian who always failed to get the peak rank since our elementary days. She loves to make scenes whenever I'm presenting, explaining or whatever.She's so bitter I supposed. "As human we are all mean to make mistakes, and I hope you're aware of that, Ms. Neufeld.” She shamed me as if I didn’t know what I’m talking about."Of course I am. That's why I got the highest average given to a female student throughout the history of this Institution that you failed to reached since I studied here. Oh, sorry for bursting your little bubble, Ms. Lee," I sarcastically replied. "You know Ms. Lee, as we grow up we learned million and millions of things, and with that we can able to differentiate what is wrong from right. And as for me? In all honesty, I know which one I should pick 'cause I ain't dumb to do things which I clearly know were wrong. That being said I vehemently reject your opinion." I ended up my words with a smile and wink at her."Just to clear my case, Ms. Neufeld, we're all entitled to our own opinion, and I just shared my thoughts regarding your silly questions." She murmured in a shaky deep tone. There she goes again, starting a nonsense debate claiming as if she's right.However, I am Khloe Maureen Garcia-Neufeld, and the word "defeat" isn't part of my vocabulary. This girl must be barking up the wrong tree."What's with the sudden 'Victim' drama, Ms. Lee?" I innocently ask with a wide smile that grave her deeper to the hell. "I guess you just didn't get what I'm trying to score out, I didn't say you're wrong, I just plainly stated that your opinion is rejected in relevance to the questions I raised. So, stop with your silly chicken drama can you?" I raised my left brow and do a flip hair.The whole room filled with noise as students started to gossip and chit-chat with one another. This is what they usually do whenever there's an exchange of words between me and Tiffany. Some of them even recorded our discussion that made me famous all around the campus, thanks to them."You're really unbelievable, Ms. Neufeld." She madly stated."Yes I am," I swiftly cut. "And thank you for the clichè praise. I am so much full with that since our elementary old days." I sarcastically mumbled and just after that the school bell loudly ring. I winked at her and turn around flipping my long soft and shiny hair like a model shooting for an advertisement video.I know I just made her day miserable again, but I never regret doing that as she is the one who always started to wake the f*ckin' hell inside me.I get to put all my things inside my bag and walked outside."That was an another fantastic presentation, Ms. Neufeld," Said Professor Steve. "You're really amazing.""Thank you professor" I simply replied."Woah! You are sitting the bar even higher, Khloe!”Zani exclaims fastly walking to my direction. "I will definitely cut my thumb finger if there's one person who can outshine this queen!” She's my bestfriend and a die hard supporter. We've been classmate since junior high and literally belongs to the same room and section all these years."I just hope no one could really do, you know I hate to see someone suffers because of me, for being too much for this world," I mumbled. "By the way, can you come over my place tonight?" I inquired looking straight to her eyes."Why? Is there something you are planning to do? Is that a party night?" She exhilaratingly ask, jumping up and down like a child."Mom and Dad just flew to UAE this morning and I am d*mn alone again. " I heavily sighed and explained. "Just come over okay? I am counting on you, Zee!" I shouted as we parted ways.I am about to open my locker when I heard an announcement through the speaker, "Ms. Neufeld and Ms. Lee, you are needed by the Dean. Please report to the Dean's office ASAP." It was a surprise call actually.I was hesitant to go but had no other choice so I swiftly runs across the heavily populated quadrangle, and the good news is that the students didn't bother me as they make ways for me making it easier for me to get through until I have reached the room of the Dean.As I reached the Dean's door and knock two times, the door finally opened and I heard the Dean inviting me to get inside."Oh what a surprise!” I shockingly mumbled as I saw Tiffany Yeon Lee already inside standing with her chest out like she's under military training or whatever."You seems to be surprised." She aggressively murmured in a very low voice."Yes! I thought I was seeing a Chinese ghost,” I whispered that widen her tiny little eyes. I guess she heard that, but I don’t gave a freaking attention to even look at her reaction."I asked you to come here just to inform both of you and the two other student from different department which aren't here yet obviously-that you guys are going to America next week." The Dean excitedly explained."America? what are we going to do there?" I snapped. Tiffany stare at me with disbelief. And yes I forgot to mention that I am the only student in this campus who talk unformally to the staff and even to the Dean."The four of you are this institution's exchange student, so I am hoping that you guys would raise our school well in the international stage. We are all looking forward to that, especially you, Genius Queen." She smiled at me."That sounds amazing, Dean." Said Tiffany."Then I'll assume it's a yes from Ms. Lee," Uttered the Dean "What's your thought about the offer, Ms. Neufeld?" she asked but I couldn't talk, I'm still in the middle of letting her words sync into my brain, cause studying abroad wasn’t really my wildest dream, and I never dreamed about it."I'll think about that,” I simply smiled and saw Tiffany looked at me with disbelief, of course who can turn down an offer like that, but they can't force me to go there. I still need enough time to think about it.10 YEARS LATER I was cleaning the backyard filled with leaves falling from our acacia tree when I heard the phone ring inside the living room. “Hello, may I know who’s calling?” I calmly asked the person calling “I think you are calling the wrong number.” I was about to hung the phone when a girl from the other line started to talk -- I mean not just talk, she actually screamed that almost destroyed my eardrum. “It’s me, Khloe! we’re on our way heading to your home." From what I heard it was Zani who exclaimed full of excitement. “I’m with my triplets by the way and my husband of course.” she added. “Oh! That’s a great news, Zee. I think I better start cleaning the guest’s room." I mumbled “What’s with the sudden flight, Zee?” “Gosh, Khloe! How could you have forgotten the special day of your best friend?” She miserable muttered “Tell me you’re joking, aren’t you?” She's pissed. I rolled my eyes and laugh silently trying to fool her as if I really did forgot her special day.
August 21, 2016. I heard a loud knock on my door. I slowly open my eyes and look for my phone first before jumping off my bed. Damn it's already 9:00 in the morning. As always, I woke up late, ate my breakfast late and start my day late. I don't care, I have nothing to worry, I have tones of clothes, received lots of money from Mom and Dad monthly and I have maids who cleaned the house, cooked foods, and do all the works inside this boring house. "Khloe! I'll break this door in a second if you won't leave your bed!" Dad exclaimed in anger. "What? Khloe? Are you really trying me, huh!" He warned. I jumped out of bed swiftly and walk towards the door like a penguin covered with my huge and thick blanket. "Yes, Dad?" I sigh after opening the door staring at him in a boring way possible. "Come down we have a special things to patch." He said in a very commanding voice then turned his torso away from me. His face is completely red. I could really see the anger inside him but he
We are in the table eating our dinner. I couldn’t move my sight from this guy whom I just saw. “What’s with the look, young lady?” He snorted, deeply slicing his chicken legs. “Nothing, I’m just a little bothered with your super slim tummy” I sarcastically said. Aunt and Uncle Alberto look at each other like they are communicating through their minds. “Huh! Should I laugh now?” He said not even looking at me. “That must be the greatest jokes of yours,” He added. “I’m no joking here, you’re the one who’s looking funny over there with your bear-like stomach.” I said, curling my hair with my left point finger. “Ops! Did I just stated the obvious?” “Woah, and that really comes from you,” He immediately throw.“Yes, from the goddess of knowledge and beauty. Her name’s Khloe Maureen Neufeld.” I stated in an irritating tone that burns him more. Aunt and Uncle both burst into laughter and I joined. “Who do you think you are?” He snapped, cutting our laughter out.“Shall I repeat my word
I stopped narrating as I saw all the 3 girls already asleep, and that includes Zani. I wagged my head looking at Kian trying to wake Zani silently. “I guess It’s time to hit the sack as well.” I stated looking at Kian and Zani carrying their children upstairs. Angelica was the one left behind and I volunteered to carry her since she’s not that heavy. I woke up into a loud knock in my door. I look for my table clock to see what time is it. “Gosh! It’s past 13 past 9:00 in the morning,” I stated in my head and swiftly left my bed. “Woah! Sleeping like a princess huh!” Zani murmured as I open the door. Like a madame she crosses her arms while throwing me a malicious stare. She’s been like this ever since our old days. “I’m sorry my queen” I mumbled leaning down a little. She crossed her arms again and raised her left brow. “Apology accepted,” She snorted, and we both burst into laughter. We already have our own family but still acting like an elementary child. As I finished taking
I apologize for some mistakes, wrong grammar or wrong spelling of some words that this story contained. The book is now under full revision and I hope that you’ll understand. Moreover, please continue reading dear, and also don’t forget to vote or leave some comments for this story. Salamat!I headed home with the triplets been from the park. Angelica is about to open the my room’s door of her parents when we hear a thunderous exclaimed of Zani. But we didn’t bother to mind that. As Angelica was about to opened the door, we hear again a smash of glass on the floor then hear Zani screams in her crying-like tone. I look at the girls and they all seems to be shock with what they just witnessed, they are speechless. “Don’t worry, maybe your Mom just saw a snake or a cockroach,” I lied. I know that it’s a couple’s thing and I should not let these innocent children hear those ear-breaking words. “I’ll just check what’s happening, go inside my room instead and wait for me there okay?” I was
Three days after we have received an offer from the Dean to be an Exchange student to the US-I finally got the nerves to speak up and tell my parents. But like what I have expected, it’s a no again for them.“This is the reason why we really insisted for you to just study here in the UAE, Maureen. But you keep saying that you wanted to finish your senior high school there. I guess that would happen instead in States not in the Philippines anymore!” Mom angrily scolded me over the phone. “I won’t allow you to study there! Is that clear?”She growled over the line.“But Mom, this is a huge opportunity for me to finish my Senior high in one of the best University in the world. Imagine Mom, tones of opportunities will knock on me once I graduate there specially with a flying colors.” I stated trying to convince her. But Mom isn’t that easy to convince.“I’ll talk to your teacher and to the Dean of Vanshelleton University,” She replied instead and then ended up the call without even allowing
After the class, I decided to go to the library and wait for Jonathan there. We’re both unfamiliar with our condo locations so we agreed to just wait for each one of us. He still have classes until 6:15 in the evening.Johansson’s Library were huge and full of new collections of different books all around the world. I picked two books with me and look for a table where I can read but all the tables were occupied. I saw an empty chair at the end corner of Science section and marched there.It’s already 6:18 but Jonathan isn’t here yet. The students are starting to leave and there are just about 20 students roaming around but I patiently waited for Jonathan ‘till I unconsciously fall asleep.I woke up to a loud noise from the right corner of library.“Oh gosh!” I mumbled as I saw that the room is completely dark and only a reflection of light from the window serves as my guiding light to see my way.“Is anyone there?” I heard a loud voice coming to the library. Oh gosh it’s the Universi
“Woah, the tiger seems to be alone.” Jennifer mumbled and without any excuses she sat down at the top of the table where I am sitting next to. Wow! The nerve, Girl.“And what’s with the sudden reunion of the 3 snakes?” I confidently inquired in a well compose sound. “I’ll talk to you later, Zee.” I excused myself, and when I almost hung the call Tiffany forcefully grab the phone off my hand. I swiftly stand to grab back my phone, but Jennifer pulled my hair so hardly that I felt like my hair are about to separate from my scalp. Dang it! I just can't tolerate someone who held me with their filthy hands. Not my hair, snakes!“Not my hair a*shole! Don’t touch me with your filthy manly hand!” I pulled my hair quickly resulting for it to lose its tie and have my flawless hair flew in the air like I just did a shampoo advertisement. I coldly push her back that result for her falling from the table where she sat.“Give me back my phone!” I screamed hardly out of my lungs and gave all my stre
