Chapter 3 - Chapter #3: Errand Boy

Sam's POV

I was already walking for like 10 minutes, and I haven't even found my room. My first day in this school is such an experience, I think I'm gonna get yelled? Well, I hope not.

As I continue to walk down the hallway, students became fewer and fewer until no one was in sight anymore.

"Where is that room? Am I even walking the right way?"

-I started talking to myself as boredom and tiredness slowly strikes on me, I think I never walked so much my entire life.

"Found it!"

-I suddenly blurted out as soon as I found my room, Class Bonifacio. Crazy right? I've never heard a class with such a name. The other rooms that I passed by was also named after the national heroes of the Philippines. Some named Rizal, Luna, del Pilar, Aguinaldo, and many more. A unique school indeed.

I was out of my thoughts when the teacher spoke, all the students were looking at me. "How embarassing! When did he open the door?", I asked on my thoughts.

"Again, what do you need, yound lady? You're disturbing my class."

-I couldn't utter a word, I feel like my feet was glued on the floor.

"Young lady?"

-he repeated

"Umm... I'm sorry I'm late sir, I am not quite familiar with this room. I got lost."

-his confusion was replaced by a bright smile, and invited me to come inside the room.

"Everyone, this is your new classmate"

-the teacher said and everyone nodded. I saw the guys smirked, while some girls rolled their eyes.

"By the way, I am Mr. Francisco, your homeroom and first subject teacher. I teach philosophy. Now, it's your turn. Go introduce yourself."

-he told me and lead me in the middle-front of the class

"Hello everyone, I am Samantha Gutierrez. I hope to be friends with all of you."

-I said smiling from ear to ear. Most of them smiled back, while others frowned.

"Everyone, be nice to her okay?"

-he said to the class and turned to me

"Hija, go find an empty seat and we will start."

-I nodded and uttered "Thank you", then he smiled

I walked on the empty chair, three seats from the back near the window. As I was about to put off my backpack, someone spoke from behind me.

"This seat is taken, but my heart's not."

-I heard giggles behind me, and when I turned my gaze, I nearly had a heart attack.

A man with a blue hair with such a smooth and white skin appeared. His face is shinning, dimples showned on both his cheeks as he chuckled slightly. Aw! What a fine young man he is. Such a beautiful creature appeared in front of me? This is such a lucky day.

I was caught in his spell and drawn into a different dimension when a hand was waved in front of me. I was stunned, I looked around me and saw confused look on their faces. Was I drooling? I hope not.

Because of such a shameful event, I rushed towards the seat in the back, and quickly took off my bag.

"Ouch!"

-I lightly shouted as the strap of my bag scratched the bruise on my arm I had earlier when I was waiting for the bus. "How did I forget to clean my wounds? The dots of blood was almost dried and class is about to start. I can't just ask to go to the restroom right after I came late on my first day in school. Maybe later, at recess?", I said on my thoughts, excited as the thought of going to the school cafeteria alone came to me. Finally, a life without those annoying humans.

Minutes later, Mr. Francisco told us to bring out our book, and so I did. As I was flipping the pages of of the book, the classroom door opened. And there I saw him. "So, we're on the same class? That's nice.", I said on my thoughts as I lightly smiled. Mr. Francisco was scolding him, as he slightly bowed his head because of embarassment. Couple of minutes later, he was told to take his seat and repent for his mistakes.

He walked right on the seat I was supposed to occupy earlier. I noticed that he was holding two plastic bags, "What's inside those?" I asked on my thoughts as I continue to observe his movements.

When he was seated, the guy with blue hair tapped his head, seems like he was asking for something. Seconds later, the blue haired guy took one of the plastic bags he was carrying earlier. "Such a rude man! He looks like an angel but feels like a devil. Tsk! Tsk!", I feel like I just needed to criticize him just a bit on my thoughts.

Foods, cigarette's, and canned drinks were what's inside the plastic bag he was given. "Hmm! So it's true, there are still these kind of humans that are taking advantage of the weak. Tsk! Tsk! Doing such a shameful act just so they can prove they're superior of them? Huh! Lame.". They are just some delusional hypocrites who found contentment out of others fear and weakness. Hays! I think it is much more better to just listen on the lesson than pay attention to these people.

Hours have passed and it was already recess, I was about to head out when my phone suddenly rang. I reached my backpack and checked who messaged me. It was my dad, asking if I am satisfied with my new school. Well, as I am quite satisfied, I messaged my dad "I think, I'll be good with every school you put me in as long as you don't interfere.". By "interfere", I mean as long as he don't send his spies and leave me alone that'll be really good for me, really good.

After putting my phone back inside my bag, I decided to head out and go straight to the restroom to wash my wounds. Washing will do, I don't need any treatment. It's just a small bruise, It'll heal itself.

As I stepped a foot outside the door, a hand holding a plastic bag was waved in front of my face. It was the errand boy, I decided to call him that as I still don't know his name. And unfortunately, uniforms here don't contain the students name, so I just had to give nicknames to people in here. As soon as he handed me the bag, I opened it up, and there I saw a pack of gauze pad, medical tape, wipes, cotton and betadine. As I was about to say "Thank you" he ran off quickly without looking back. What a sweet man he is, I didn't know he had it in him. I thought he was a snob, but I guess not.

"I think, treatment is indeed important"

-I said as I lightly chuckled

I headed straight to the restroom, the hallway is so crowded, bet I wouldn't even hear myself even if I shouted. Hack!

While dressing my bruise, I heard a noise outside. This is the life I was talking about, chaos, noise, and everything else. I feel like I am indeed living a normal life, I hope this will last.

After I finished treating my bruise, I was shocked by the scene in front of me.

"What is happening in here?"
