MEA CULPA DEVOID -20__©
Two years later...
Illeon's sighed heavily after opening the door to her classroom. The whole area was quiet because there was no other presence present around the floor. She was the only one on the third floor.
She entered the classroom and placed her bag in Column B, Row 3 seat #2. She first took something from her bag, the book she was studying today. She slightly adjusted her glasses and adjusted her seat. But she just stood up when she heard a loud crash outside.
She looked at the watch on her wrist. Each of the three classrooms on the 3rd floor will be crowded for about 20 minutes, so how can anyone make noise this early?
She dragged her own feet outside. She looked around and noticed the trash scattered in the other classroom and the trash bin is just near the stairs. The bin was also knocked over for some reason.
She let out a deep sigh before heading to her classroom and fetching a broom and dustpan from the cabinet. "It must have been a dog that did that."
[Fast forward 20 minutes later]
Jay Ardieles Torpin, 15 years old. Class M.M.O... Damath student. Not so friendly but the name is famous. Jay-R the class M.M.O, early on saw someone fighting in his path. He couldn't even find the class Sgt.@ arms to detach them as no one knows, he never really care about his position, he was just nominated and majorly voted. Since he is one of the classroom officers, HE MUST STOP THEM. But he didn't budge and was in the middle of their fight. It only stopped when someone shouted at them, Laze Bello, their classroom muse.
Laze Bello, 17 years old. Class muse. Research journalist student. Tall and a bit chubby. He stared at her. It's bad to stare. He gulped. Even though his position was a muse in their class, she was like a president when she have a wrong tone of mood.
"Oiii Laze, good morning!" But his high energetic voice disappeared when she also gave him an evil look.
'be quiet'
RHEA, READING HER SCIENCE BOOK while waiting for a vacant time to end in the morning. She just noticed Jay-Ar in front of her who had the strength to smile all around and placed his bag in its assigned seat in column b, row 3 where Rhea was also in column b but in row 4.
She turned around to see why his smile reached the sky. "Are you crazy Ar?"
Rhea Gold Mendoza, 17 years old. the Class President, Research and science student journalist. The body is plump and follows a healthy balanced diet.
Ar just shook his head at her. 'abnoy' she said in her mind.
She just got tired and continued reading when she felt that someone was standing next to her, Cinthya. Column B and row 4 is also Cinthya's assigned seat (seat #5).
Cinthya had just arrived and was smiling to the heavens. Rhea lethargically stares at Cinthya for a moment. Is she also infected with Ar's arrogance of heaven smile?
She keeps asking, is there something I don't know? Because of the side of her gaze, she also noticed Laze Bello who was also very happy. 'I think there is a virus, she said in her thought.
"Cinthya, you're late. Illeon got the keys." Cinthya was assigned by their teacher to hold the key to their classroom. Because this is the one that is noticed that is always early, except this day. It seems that their time is running out because the vacant time is about to halve.
"UpHereMatibo, the president" She just shook her head in her unusual act. She worriedly thought ' this is a serious virus, we will be cured'.
'I think you're the only one with a problem Rhea, maybe they just woke up in the right bed so it seems like it's contagious. Don't pay attention, you might get slapped. '
NIX, the one and only girl in their class who doesn't like to be called pretty or any kinds of relationship in it, just be cool. (Because she thinks, she's cooler than her girl figure. She was just about to climb the stairs when she noticed that her friend and classmate Faye were also approaching, carrying the laptop case.
She stopped and waited for Faye to keep up. She greeted her with a wide smile and a greeting of good morning, which she positively responded to.
They entered the room together followed by Liliane who also arrived. They are best friends and teammates. Liliane waved at them and smiled.
"It's been two years, since we had Illeon in class but we still haven't noticed any friends or people who approached her, " that was the beginning of Lalaine's conversation. Illeon is their quiet classmate. She doesn't like to talk and has no friends. They don't know much about her, except for the name of TOP 1 SCHOLAR.
"You're the one who doesn't care much about the lives of our other classmates, but now you've become interested in illeon," Nix whispered to her.
"Why? You too, you also wonder about her." Nix just nodded.
"But we don't see that he needs it," said Cinthya, who they didn't realize was approaching them.
"Look, how she distances herself from us. Far away," then Faye's brain raced with what she said. Distance measurement is just only 36 inches.
She's only two rulers away'.
"Maybe there's a reason why he's acting like that, " Faye spoke even though she was confused.
"Shhhh. She might hear you, " said Nix who was just looking at her module but was always listening to their conversation." What are you carrying now?" She looked at them.
Faye took a piece of paper and wrote what she was carrying, which she passed to Lalaine and Cinthya who did the same." Impressive, it's beautiful," she commented after reading the friends' writings.
"Yours?"
Smiling, Nix wrote her own and showed it to them.
It was only a few minutes before their first class started when their cell phones rang at the same time except for Illusion.
GC without Illeon
Notifications..... That's what they named in their messenger.
Rhea frowned slightly when her messenger's notification bell rang. He always turns on her data on her cell phone every morning in class to have easy access to the morning announcements. She was surprised that someone sent her a message request.
GC without Illeon
Notifications
She read it through her eyes. Her brow furrowed and she wondered what this group chat was about. She looked at illeon whose seat was just in front of her. They were just following the same row and it was obvious that she had no interest in grabbing her cellphone next to her because her attention was focused on the new book she was reading.
She just shook her head and pressed the accept button of the group chat. And the active members replied one by one.
Trinalala: good morning students.. is everything ready?
Rhea: which one?
Zebelle: Almost everything is here, ma'am, and as discussed, I can say that everything is ready.
Harley: 👍
Lalaine: we are ready ma'am.
Laze: The President had a meeting yesterday with another president when we met. So her brain is absent from our plan today.
Faye: yes ma'am.
Nix: yes ma'am.
Cinthya: president, don't you know?
(Rhea reacted to Cinthya's message. 😑)
Jelade: I have also prepared the total amount of what we spent. I'll just send it so there's no escape.
(Bea reacted to Jelade's message. 🧐)
Bea: ma'am, what time will you arrive?
Eellha: Vincent and I will release the balloons.
Lasewn: the cakes are here too. We are still preparing. With the maskateeeerrrrssss.
Ardieles: Illeon is just reading. Our plan might don't work.
(Lasewn reacted to Ardieles message 😡)
Leiñard: @Serriellene where are you? No birthday pop.
Serriellene: let's raise our thumb!
WHILE Illeon was focused on reading, her long hearing sense was alerted by the cell phones of her classmates beeping one by one except for her. But she didn't make it obvious that she was wandering her hearing around. But all she heard was the giggles of her classmates.
They have their own worlds that happen at the same time.
But with her subpowered hearing senses wandering around, she only caught a quick sound outside. She looked at the window.
'what's that?'
But her eyes were turned around when her classmates sang in unison along with the teacher who was carrying a box.
"Happy birthday Illeon.
Happy birthday Illeon.
Happy birthday
Happy birthday.
Happy birthday to you"
They were divided into different tone groups in front of her. She stands, and looks over their looks. If looks can kill they may be dead from the evil of looking.
She looked at her watch and then turned to look at them." Miss, aren't we going to start yet?" It was a cold question.
'Birthdays are not good for me. They just remind me of everything,' she said in her brain and looked directly at them.
