Chapter 8: Lips On Mine
Maddox's POV
My car's engine roared as I sped to the campsite. Kinagat ko ang labi ko. They're all probably wondering where I am... or not. I don't really know. But I'm sure about one thing.
Ayana will beat me up...
Tinignan ko ang patay 'kong phone sa dashboard at napapikit saglit. I actually did sneak out, and then I accidentally overslept, and now my phone is dead. Oh, I really am dead meat.
My wristwatch said it's already 10PM. I groaned.
"Damn it!" I cursed, my fingers tapping my black steering wheel.
Nang tumigil ako sa may camping site ay huminga na agad ako ng malalim bago ako lumabas sa kotse.
I walked calmly and shoved my hands inside my pockets. It's one of my mannerisms, and I don't tell people that it is. My looks might be deceiving but I have the weirdest habits. Especially when my finger

How many months have passed? About two or three months? Hindi ko alam. Hanggang ngayon ay namumula at umiinit pa din ang balat ko kapag nakikita ko si Maddox. I kind of wished he would go back to skipping school."Criasha, hoy!" kanti sa akin ni Ayana at ipinakita sa akin ang bago niyang palette. "Tulala ka na naman. What's wrong with you?""Wala lang," pekeng tawa ko. Agad nya akong tinitigan. I swear when she looks at me like this, I get nervous. It's like she knows something!"Seriously though," panimula nya at tumabi sa akin sa couch. "Did Maddox do something to you? Ever since you came back from the forest you started acting weird. Did he molest you? I'd kill him. Sabihin mo lang sa akin."More like I molested him...My face heated up in embarrassment.Kasi naman! Ano bang iniisip ko nung ginawa ko 'yon? Ugh, Criasha, you're so unrepressed. Kailan pa ako naging ganito?

"Excuse me!"Tumabi ako at pinagmasdan silang magtatakbo. Nasa function hall kami ngayon. Nagkahiwa-hiwalay kaming lahat pero kasama ko pa naman si Anna."All SRA students, quiet down, please."Tumahimik kaming lahat para tignan si kuya Cairo. He stood tall up on the stage, his posture perfectly intact. Nagsiksikan kaming lahat, si Anna naman ay nasa kaliwa ko at lumilingon-lingon."General Buenafiro is here to deliver an announcement, make sure to listen and cooperate with him, that's all. Sir," inabot nya ang mic sa isag matangkad na lalaki na naka-uniporme na pangsundalo. His image flashed on the big screen. Malaki yung event hall sa school kaya hindi kita 'yung nagsasalita sa stage kapag nasa likod ka, kaya may screen kami sa hall."Good evening. I'm General Buenafiro. I-inform ko lang kayo na hindi kayo pwedeng lumabas ng school o sa magpunta sa mga lugar na ipagbabawa
The Art of Loving You Prologue
It was around that time… when I met him.I can hear the droplets of rain outside the building and I was stuck in that dark classroom crying.“I saw it,” he says.Humihikbi akong tumingin pataas sa kanya. I was angry at myself. I was so annoyed that I couldn’t do anything. Bakit kailangan ko itong pagdaanan? It wasn’t my choice. This school is a school for society’s royalties. I know I’m not suitable for it. But it was free education and I have no money.“Don’t cry,” he leans down to me and gives me a dark blue handkerchief. “You look ugly.”Napanganga ako at biglang tumigil ang luha ko sa gulat. I hiccupped. His usual steel gray eyes shone in the moonlight as he looked up at the ceiling and he smiled, “Sabi na gagana iyon e.”“Are you done crying?”

"Tutor?"Tumango ako at patuloy na ininom ang milkshake ko."Sysfairóno? Ibang level na iyon. Alam ko na kilala ka sa pagpapa-amo ng mga bata pero…"I sighed and looked at Brix. He gave me a glance before looking down at the ground, his frowning face clouded with worry."Kahit highschool lang yung matapos ko, Brix. Makakapasok ako sa kahit anong trabaho ng walang kahirap-hirap," dahilan ko pa. Halos lahat ng mga kaibigan, kakilala at kapamilya ko ay may issue din sa SRA.His sunny eyes looked grim, "You can go to college, though."

Pagod akong bumagsak sa upuan ko. Kakatapos lang ng presentation namin.Business, statistics, accountancy, and politics. Mandatory classes kahit senior highschool palang kami. Hindi ko nga alam kung makakapag-college pa ako!When the bell rang for our break time, umalis na ang mga kaklase ko. As usual may mga tumitingin sa akin but I didn't pay any attention to it."So, Criasha," umupo sa tabi ko ang isang babae 'kong kaklase at ang dalawa niyang mga kaibigan, isang lalaki at isang babae, sa mga upuan malapit sa akin. "Did your parents make you handle stocks na?"Napakamot ako sa batok ko, "Well, I did handle stocks pero hindi naman ako inutusan ng parents ko. I did it on my own."Nagtinginan silang lahat at mukhang mangha na nag-apir. Nagtataka ko silang tinignan at medyo nahilo ng masinghot ang matapang na pabango nila. Mabango pero... hihimatayin ako sa kanila. Naliligo ba sil

Parang estatwa sila Ayana, Jax, at Anna. Maging ang mga tao na nakapalibot sa amin ay hindi gumagalaw. Even I couldn't move.Silence...Stillness...Heavy breaths...I felt it. The adrenaline pumping inside my entirety. I breathed deeply, in and out. I cursed myself and shook my head when ridiculous thoughts crossed my head."I don't care about who you are, the only question I have with me is what do you want?" tanong ni Jax, his voice surprisingly calm. His arm is shaking, though.Namumula ang mata at nanginginig sa saya, nagsalita ang lalaki, "Manahimik ka! P-Papatayin ko kayong lahat! Papatayin ko kayong mga Buenaventura!"

"Criasha, why are you going home this early again?" Ayana pouted. "It's my mom's birthday, doofus. Kailangan ko pang bumili ng cake," sabi ko at mahinang pinitik ang nuo nya. Parang bata talaga itong si Ayana. Parang Koala din. "Really? Can I eat the cake then?" prisinta ng bibong si Matrix. I can't afford a big cake, that's why I couldn't invite them. Mahirap lang ako, e'. It doesn't mean that I would be poor forever, of course. My dream is to rise from the dirt and give my mother a happy and carefree life. "Next time, kiddo. Sa birthday mo bibilhan kita ng cake," tawa ko at nanggigigil na pinisil ang pogi nyang mukha. Agad siyang sumimangot at tinanggal ang kamay ko. He pointed at me. "I'm not a kid! Just wait 'till I marry you one day. Because you're the only girl who can beat me in video games!" he exclaims coolly. Ayana giggled and layed her head on the bag beside

Maddox's POV "Shoot it, aim right, Ax!" sabi ni Storm. Hawak ang tako sa isang kamay ay humikab ako, inaantok. "This isn't my forte, dude! Kelan ba tayo pupunta sa Alejandro's?" reklamo ni Ax at tinira ulit ang billiard ball. It didn't go in, of course. This dumbass really does suck at pool. "We can't tonight. Dad wants me home," I replied and went into position. I moved my arms along with the cue stick. Halatang may halong galit ang pagtira ko ng lumipad ang bola. "You probably won't do as he says, anyway," sabi sa akin ni Storm. Tama naman sya. I've always been a rebel. But this time, I just couldn't say no. It's Mom's death anniversary. "Probably," I agreed. "But have you checked on them yet?" tanong ni Ax at biglang dumapa sa billiard table. Nginisian nya ako at pinalo naman ni Storm si Ax sa pwet ng cue stick.
