I WAS AT CAFFETERIA AT OUR SCHOOL WITH SALLIE OF COURSE. WERE BUSY REVIEWING AT OUR CHEMISTRY EXAM…WHEN SOME GIRLS ARE APPROACHING TO OUR SEATS. IT WAS THE BEASTS OF MY LIFE. DID THEY STILL WANTED TO FIGHT ON ME.. I DIDN'T TELL YOU GUYS.. BUT THEY HAVE BEEN IN MY LIFE WHEN I WAS ELEMENTARY… I ALWAYS HATE THEM FOR BEING SO MEAN TO ME, THEY BUMPED INTO ME WHEN I WAS WALKING AT THE HALLWAY..THEY BROUGHT THE SAME SNACK AS MINE IN RECESS AND SAID AT THE PUBLIC THAT THEY DIDN'T RECOMMEND IT CAUZE ITS GROZZ… THEN WHEN IT COMES TO SPORTS FEST THEY WILL DEFINETLY JOIN MY TEAM AND STARTED TO MAKE EVERYONE LEAVE BUT I DON'T LIKE BEING WITH THEM ANYWAY..THEY ARE EVERYWHERE IN THIS WORLD. WHERE EVER I GO …. IN THE LIBRARY, IN THE PRINCIPALS OFFICE, IN THE MALL, MARKET..EVEN IN THE CR… THEY ALWAYS SAY THAT THE CR SMELLS BAD AND NEVER LET ANYONE IN… AND WHEN I CAME OUT THEY LAUGHED AT ME.. IT JUST STOP WHEN I WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL, I MET SALLIE IN THERE AND HAVING WITH HER BY MYSIDE ALWAYS MAKING ME SMILE EVEN MORE.. I WAS WONDERING EVERYTIME THEY PASSES US, THEY JUST IGNORE US…
* AND NOW WHAT THE HELL ARE THEY DOING HERE? TRYING TO DO DIRTY TRICKS ON ME AGAIN?*
"HEY, REMEMBER ME?" THEIR LEADER ASKED ME.. AND THEN SHE PULL A SEAT BESIDE.
"AHMMM MAYBE, WHATS YOUR NAME?" I SAID AND SMILE TRYING TO BE FRIENDLY.
"YOU SAID YOU REMEMBER ME BUT NOT KNOWING MY NAME?" SHE SAID LIKE A MAD DUCK.
"I SAID MAYBE… I JUST REMEMBER YOUR FACE AND YEAH NOT KNOWING YOUR NAME.I DIDN'T BOTHER TO ASK YOU BEFORE CAUSE YOU BUSY PLANNING TRICKS ON ME" I SAID SO CALMLY.
I LOOK AT SALLIE AND THEN I SAW HER FACE CONFUSED. I SIGNAL HER TO GET OUT FOM HERE.. BUT SHE DIDN'T MAKE A MOVE… THEN SHE SIGNAL ME THAT I WOULD EXPLAIN IT TO HER LATER AND THEN SHE EXCUSE HER SELF AND WALK STRAIGHT TO THE ROOM.
THE FACES OF HER MEMBERS LIGHTEN UP. AND THEY ALL SIT INFRONT OF ME…
"I'M BABY"SHE SIMPLY SAID. THE OTHER MEMBERS CHUCKLES WHEN THEY HEAR IT
" NICE NAME" I REPLIED. I KNOW ITS NOT HER REAL NAME.
"YOURS?" SHE ASK.
"XENA" I SAID.
"O-O / XENA? THE ONE THEY CALL GODDESS OF HITTERS?! HAHAHA." SHE BURST LAUGHING.
* WHATS SO FUNNY?*
"YEAH, ITS INSANE RIGHT?" I JOIN HER GIGGLING.
* YEAH JUST LAUGH IN THERE CAUSE YOU WILL KNOW WHAT WOULD I DO IF YOUR PLAYING TRICKS ON ME AGAIN*
"NO, ITS JUST HAHAHHA….AWFULL NAME" AFTER SAYING THAT, SHE WALK AWAY FROM THE TABLE WITH OTHER STUDENTS WATCHING AT ME.
"THEY'RE CRAZY…" I SAID TO THE STUDENTS WHILE MY VOICE IS LOWERED. THEY JUST LAUGH.
" DID YOU SAY SOMETHING?" THE LEADER SAID WHILE WALKING BACK TO MY TABLE. WOW WHO KNOWS THAT GOD REALLY GIVE HIM A GOOD HEARINGS AND THAT MADE ME FEEL GUILTY.
"I.. HAAHHA… I SAID THAT YOUR NAME IS BABY…" I LIED.
"HEY, EVERYBODY, WHY DON'T YOU GREET GOODMORNING TO BABY" I SAID TO THE STUDENTS. TO MY SURPRISE THEY FOLLOW WHAT I SAID AND STARTED TO CALL HER SAID NAME.
"HELLO BABY, GOODMORNING… WANTS SOME COFFEE?" SOME BOY ASKS.
"BABY…BABY… HAVE A SIT WITH ME, BABY"
" HI THERE BABY"
" HI BABY"
I CAN SEE IN HER EYES THAT SHE GOT ANNOYED.
"STOOOOOOP IT, IM NOT BABY! OKAY?" SHE PISSED WHEN SHE LOOK AT ME. THAT IS WHAT AS I EXPECTED.
"IM RITA…. SO STOP CALLINE ME BABY.. I WAS ONLY ALLOWED SOMEONE TO CALL ME THAT." SHE SAID AND POINTED AT ME..* WHAT THE HECK?* AFTER THAT RITA AND HER FRIENDS GET BACK FROM THEIR DIFFERENT CLASSROOMS. *THEY ARE SO WEIRD*
"SHEEESHHH OF ALL THE PEOPLE, WHY DOES THEY CHOSE ME TO BOTHER WHILE IM STUDYING FOR OUR EXAM" I SAID TO MYSELF. THEN I REMEMBER SALLIE. SHE MUST HAVE BEEN SO MAD AT ME WHEN I MADE HER OUT OF THE TABLE. SO I LOOK FOR HER.. OH THERE SHE IS TALKING WITH DAVID..
" HELLO GUYS! WELL…SALLIE..IM SO…SO…SO.. SORRY ABOUT EARLIER. I DON'T WANT YOU TO GET INVOLV--" I SAID WHEN SHE PUT HER FINGER TO MY LIPS.
" YOU CAN BE FORGIVEN BUT IT DOESN'T MEAN THAT YOU WILL NOT GIVE ME AN EXPLAINATION ABOUT THEM.. JUST COME TO DAVID'S PARTY TOMMOROW WITH ME. I'LL BE AT YOUR HOUSE AT 6:30. OKAY?" SHE SAID. I TURN TO DAVID AND HE GAVE ME THIS PUPPY LOOK. UHHHHH ^-^
''OKAY, FOR YOU! I'LL GO WITH YOU" I SAID TO HER.
"GUYS..NO WORRIES ..I WILL BE THE ONE TO PICK YOU UP BOTH.." DAVID OFFER.

"I MEAN, LOVE YOUR SCORES" HE SAID AND THEN HE RUN TO HIS CLASSROOM.
"I THOUGHT HES GONNA SAY HE LOVES YOU HAHAHHA" SALLIE TEASES ME.
" HE'S JUST A FRIEND TO ME.. NO OTHER LEVEL" I SAID.
AS WE ABOUT TO ENTER THE CLASSROOM. SALLIE JUST STOPPED AND I BUMP INTO HER. I LOOK AT WHERE SHE IS LOOKING.
HOLY DAMN FREAKING GUY!!! HE IS WALKING TOWARDS US. HE LOOKS SO REALLY HANDSOME ON HIS LONG BROWN JACKET, WHITE T-SHIRT AND JEANS. WOW IN THAT SIMPLE CLOTHING REALLY SUITS HIM WELL. HE LOOKS LIKE A DEMIGOD....
I CAN HELP TO BIT MY LOWER LIPS, AND HE'S EYES WIDENED OF WHAT HE SAW.. I FELT SO ASHAMED, I HURRIEDLY RUN INSIDE THE ROOM AND PANICLY READ MY BOOKS. WHILE SALLIE DIDN'T MAKE A MOVE AND STILL STARRING AT STEFFEN. I CALLED SALLIE TO COME IN AND SHE DID,WITH A BRIGHT SMILE IN HER FACE.
"BESH, YOUR YAYA GAVE YOU THIS?" SHE HANDED ME A LUNCH BOX. I OPENED MY BAG AND I SAW MY LUNCHBOX ISN'T THERE. I PROBABLY FORGET IT SO YAYA CAME HERE.
" DID YOU SEE YAYA?" I ASK
" NO, BUT HE SAID THAT HE SAW YOUR YAYA ON HER WAY HERE AND ITS CLASS HOUR, NO ONE CAN ENTER THE SCHOOL EXCEPT TEACHER'S AND STUDENTS. SO SHE MADE A FAVORED TO PROFESSOR AND DELIVER IT TO YOU." SHE SAID
"UHMM, OKAY..I DEFINITELY NOT FORGET ABOUT IT NEXT TME." I SAID AND FOCUS AGAIN TO MY REVIEW.
AFTER 10 MINUTES…
THE DOOR OPENED AND I HURRIEDLY PUT MY THINGS BACK TO MY BAG. THE CHEMISTRY TEACHER COME, THIS TEACHER IS REALLY STRICT AT EVERYTHING. AS WE FIX OUR SELVES TO LOOK ELEGANT AS WHAT OUR CHEMISTRY TEACHER WANTS US. BUT ANOTHER TEACHER COME TO OUR CLASS, STEFFEN.
"GOOD MORNING EVERYONE, AS YOU CAN SEE YOUR CHEMISTRY GOT SICK YESTERDAY AND STILL NOW SHE'S NOT FEELING WELL. SO SHE ASKED ME TO BE YOUR CHEMISTRY EXAM TEACHER…ARE YOU ALL READY?" HE SAID.
"YE-YES SIR!" MY CLASSMATES SAID. AND MANY STUDENTS AGAIN, ARE OBSESSED WITH THIS SO STUPID!!!! CRAZY!! BOOSY! HOT..CHARMING…SEXY….HANDSOME...GENIUS…..PHOTOGENIC….HEAVEN CLASSIC.. SH*T WHAT AM I THINKING! AM I NOW OBSESSED WITH HIM? NOW WAY.. I SHAKE MY HEAD TO GET THOSE MINDSET OF MINE AWAY FROM ME…
" MISS XENA? YOUR NOT READY?" HE ASK ME.
"I..I..IM READY SIR!" I SAID WITHOUT LOOKING HIS FACE.
" THEN LETS START" HE SAID THEN STARTED TO GIVE US THE EXAM PAPER.
THEN HE WALKS TO MY SEAT AND GAVE ME THE PAPER.
" YOU BETTER HAVE A GOODLUCK" HE WHISPERED. HIS WORDS SENT A CHILL OF APPREHENSION DOWN MY SPINE.
"YEAH, BETTER DO.." I SAID AND TRY MYSELF TO CALM DOWN TO REMEMBER WHAT I STUDIED LAST NIGHT AND EARLIER..

AFTER THE EXAMINATION, SALLIE CAME TO ME AND HUG ME AT THE BACK…
" THE REVIEW YOU DID TO ME AT THE CAFFETERIA EARLIER WORKS..I ANSWERED ALL OF THEM..YOURE THE SMARTEST FRIEND I EVER HAD.." SHE SAID
"UHH… HOW SWEET…" I SAID…
WHEN THE CLASS ENDED…SALLIE AND I WENT TO THE MALL TO BUY DRESS FOR THE PARTY. MOM GAVE ME HER CREDIT CARD AND SAID THAT WE SHOULD ENJOY. SO HERE, SALLIE BOUGHT ME MAKE UP. WE TRY DIFFERENT CLOTHES AND OUTFIT..
" XENA! WHY DON'T YOU WEAR THIS DRESS AT THE PARTY." SHE HANDED ME A WHITE BACKLESS DRESS.
" ARE YOU SURE? WHAT IF THIS WILL MAKE ME LOOK FUNNY IN FRONT OF PEOPLE?" I ASKED.
" YOU DON'T TRUST ME?" SHE ASKED ME SERIOUSLY.
WELL, SALLIE HAVE A GOOD TASTE OF CHOOSING OUTFITS THOUGH. EVERY EVENT THAT I WAS ATTENDING TO, SHE IS THE ONE TO CHOOSE WHAT WILL I WEAR THAT FIT IN THE EVENT. I REALLY LOOK GOOD AT THE DRESSES THAT SHE PREPARED FOR ME BUT… I FEEL VERY ASHAMED WHEN PEOPLE SAW MY CHEST, MY BACK, MY HIPS,NAVEL, AND MY LEGS..IM NOT USED TO WEAR THOSE KIND OF STUFF. BUT I DON'T WANNA HURT HER FEELINGS. SO I JUST MANAGE TO HAVE A CONFIDENCE TO WEAR THIS OUTFITS AT THE CROWD.
"OF COURSE, I DO TRUST YOU.. ITS JUST.." I STOPPED WHEN SHE LOOK AT ME
" WHAT? YOUR NOT USED TO IT AGAIN? YOUR NOT COMFORTABLE AT IT? BESH… IM TELLING YOU THIS, YOU HAVE SUCH A PERFECT BODY… YOUR NECK IS SO PRETTY, YOUR SHOULDER IS PERFECT, YOUR BREAST IS NOT SMALL AND NOT SO BIG.

IF I AM A BOY, I'LL CHASE YOU WHEREVER YOU GO UNTIL YOU FALL ON ME AND CATCH YOU!
*FALL ON ME AND CATCH YOU? I REMEMBERED THE TIME THAT STEFFEN AND I ACCIDENTALY KISSED. WHERE I LANDED AT HIM AND HIS THERE CATCH ME.* I SIGHED AND SMILED..
" WHY ARE YOU SMILING? "SHE ASK
"IM JUST WANDERING HOW YOU CAME UP WITH THAT JOKE?" I SAID.
" ITS NOT A JOKE.. IM TELLING THE TRUTH.. NO ONE WILL NEVER EVER REJECT YOU. HOW I WISH I WAS YOU, BESH" SHE SAID AND WE LAUGH TOGETHER.
"MISS, PLEASE PACK THIS ITEMS PLEASE" SALLIE SAID TO THE CASHIER.
AFTER THAT WE WENT TO SOUTH TOWN… A PLACE WHERE WE CAN EAT DELICIOUS FOODS. WE TAKE PICTURES OF EACH OTHER TO REMEMBER THIS MOMENT. WHEN OUR ORDER ARRIVES, WE CAN'T STAND JUST TO LOOK AT THIS SO FLIRTY DISHES.
" WHAT ARE WE WAITNG FOR?" I SAID

"HOLY MARY MOTHER OF GOD, TELL ME XENA, IM JUST DREAMING?"
"HMMHH? WHY?" I ASKED WHILE I STILL TIE UP THE OTHER SHOE LACE.
" HE HAD A GIRLFRIEND ALREADY? WHY DIDN'T TELL ME?" SHE SAID AND SOUNDED SO SAD.
"WHO HAD A GIRLFRIEND? AND WHY DOES YOU WANT HIM TO TELL YOU THAT?" I TEASE HER WHILE I REMOVE THE STAINS OF THE SAUCE IN MY SHOES BUT SHE DIDN'T RESPOND.
" WHAT DOES SHE HAVE THAT I DON'T, AND WHAT DO I HAVE, THAT SHE DOESN'T HAVE. SO THAT HE WOULD REPLACE ME OF HER." SHE SAID.
"SHEESSHH NO ONE WILL EVER IN THE SAME HIGH LEVEL AS YOU, SO CHEER U-" I STOP WHEN I GOT UP AND SAW HER CRYING AND LOOKING AT THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD. AND WHEN I LOOK AT THE OTHERSIDE OF THE ROAD. I SAW NICH AND STEFFEN KISSING!. AND WAIT…WHY DOES MY HEART SUDDENLY HURT. IM NOT LIKE THIS BEFORE… WHEN I LOOK INTO SALLIE'S EYES. I FEEL PITY ON HER .SO I TRIED MY BEST TO MAKE HER LAUGH.
"THEY ARE SO EMBARRASING!! MY GOSH! LOOK HOW THEY KISS EACH OTHER…THEY BOTH LOOK LIKE A MONKEY...EHHW. DISGUSTING.. IF I WERE THAT GIRL AND HE WANTS TO KISS ME IN THERE. I'LL BETTER KICK HIS ASS ON THE ROAD"I SAID.
