POV: Alexis Rockefeller
"Are you all prepared? Today we will having an oral recitation." Ms. Agazer said. We are all feel the tension.
"Mr. Dela Cruz stand up! Ms. Agazer calling my classmates. Some of my classmates didn't answered correctly the question and a lot of my classmates answered the question correctly.
"It is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material elements sliding against each other. Ms. Agazer asked one of my classmates.
That is friction, I already read that, that's why I know the answer.
"Friction" My classmate answered.
"Very good Ms. Aguirre." Ms. Agazer said while smiling.
"Next Ms. Alexis Rockefeller, stand up." Ms. Agazer said that's why I slightly feel nervous. Before, I didn't feel nervous in her recitation but I don't know why I feeling nervous now.
"Is it the force that attracts a body toward the center of the earth, or toward any other physical body having mass?" Ms. Agazer asked me. Her question is familiar. I know that. I tried to think.
"Ooow! I remembered, the answered is "gravity." I said.
"Wow!! Alexis is that you?"
"I think she guessed the answer."
My classmates are teasing me. That's why I annoyed at them.
"Very good Alexis this is the first time that you answered in my recitation." Ms. Agazer is also teased me. What the!!
"Here is another question for you." I shocked when Ms. Agazer said that.
"But you're only asked one question in my classmates." I said.
"Don't worry I'll give you additional grade if you answered this correctly." Ms. Agazer said.
"Who invented the formula of E=MC squared and what is it?" Ms. Agazer asked again.
I tried to recall again what I read last night.
"E=MC squared is the famous formula of Albert Einstein. Energy equals mass times the speed of light squared. On the most basic level, the equation says that energy and mass (matter) are interchangeable; they are different forms of the same thing."
I summarized what I'd read last night and I surprised when my classmates are clapping.
"I know that you studied well. Keep up the good work!" Ms. Agazer said and she is smiling with me. As usual Roggen answered the questions correctly with very long explanation. He just wants to be famous.

There are so many topics that have been discussed today. Now we are walking to go home.
It's just five o'clock in the afternoon. Chalize will be out in six o'clock, I can't wait in one hour so I'm go to home now.
While I'm walking I remember that the book of Roggen is still in my bag.
Then I saw Aina, she is one of our classmates.
"Aina did you see Roggen?" I asked her.
"Yieeee, why are you looking for Roggen? Did you miss him?" She is smiling and teasing me.
That's why I hold her collar. "What are you saying? Do you wanna punch?" I said.
"Alexis relax, I'm not your enemy. Im just kidding." She said and she is upping his hands. I laughed in her looks.
"He is already outside, chase him he just came out. She said then smiled again.
"Don't you dare to tease me again to Roggen huh?" I warned her.
"Okay, but don't stop the beat of your heart." She said seriously. I don't know what she's saying. That's why I leave her and ran to find Roggen.
I'm outside the campus and looking for Roggen but I feel sad when I couldn't see him. What?? Why should I be sad? I don't wanna see that Jerk.
"Are you looking for me??" I shocked when I heard the familiar voice.
"Roggen?" I said and he came to me. I smiled when I see him. He also smiled at me.
"Why are you smiling like that? Do you already in love with me?" He said while smiling like a crazy.
"What the heck are you talking about?" Do you hear what are you saying!?" I shouted at him.
"Relax okay, I'm just kidding. Who are you looking for?" He asked. That's why I opened my bag and I get his book. Then I slapped his book to his face.
"Ouch!! Why are you did that?" He said and I laughed because he looks annoyed.
"hahahahahahahaha"
"hahahahahahahaha"
I laughed because his cheek turns to red.
"That is my way of saying thank you." I said then I leave him but he hold my arms.
"What?? I asked.
"Can you join with me to eat for snacks." He asked me.
"What if I won't eat with you?" I asked in rude way.
"Then I'll eat you." He said while smiling.
"What the f*ck are you talking about? Are you pervert?" I shouted at him.
"Of course I'm not a pervert, your mind is so dirty." He said.
"Come on Alexis I'm gonna treat you." He said.
"Please" He added and his face looks like begging that's why I laughed at him.
"You are so ugly you know that?" I said then we laughed while walking.
"Hi mam and sir welcome to the Jollibee." The guard said we are here now in the Jollibee. I don't know why I joined in him.
"Just sit here and I'm gonna order. What do you want?" He asked me.
"Anything that you want." I said in rude way.
"Okay we will eat chicken with rice and yummy burger. He said then laughed.
"Hmm, delicious!!" He said while we are eating.
"You're just like a child" I said to him.
"Sometimes we have to set our mind like a child. When you feel the things messed up, just talk to children. He said seriously.
"Do you wanna become a philosopher?" I said then he just laughed.
While we are eating I noticed that he is looking in other table, that's a happy family eating together.
"Are you jealous with them?? You don't have family?" I asked him in sarcastic way. He became very serious that's why I felt guilty on him.
"Sorry if I offended you." I just said.
"No it's okay" He said.
"Do you know that may father died when I was only eight years old." He said seriously and his sadness is very visible in his eyes.
"I am very close to him because he is always teaching me everything that I need to know in this world. He is not only taught me knowledge but he taught me how to became a good person." He said continuously.
"How about your mother?" I asked.
"My mother is already in Japan. She is sending me money for my needs." He said seriously.
"Who are your housemates?" I asked him.
"I am with my uncle and aunt. I'm so lucky because they are good to me. They are gave support, care and love to me." He said while smiling.
"What about your mother? Did you feel angry to her because she is not always by your side?" I asked him seriously because if I were in his position I would be angry to my mother. Imagine that his father was died and her mother left him.
"I didn't feel angry to my mother. First of all my mother went to Japan because we are only poor so she decided to go to Japan just to sustain my needs. Yup, she is not always by my side, but she is always calling me through video chat or chatting in messenger. There's no perfect parents so we have to understand the shortcomings of our parents. That's why we have to understand our parents. We have to develop ourselves. We have to be grow and be the best version of ourselves. In that way our parents will be proud of us."
