Galawang Ulopong

Jay-jay's POV


Lung disease! But why? How? I didn't understand anything that Tita Gema and the doctor were talking about.
All I heard was tissue damage. When was that?! "Jay..." Keifer called to me. "...A penny for your thoughts."
"Huh?!" "Is that what you're thinking about again?" I shook my head. I knew he was referring to Yuri. His not
coming in really added to my worry. I tried to text or call him but his phone was off. But what I was more
worried about was Aries. I thought he was hospitalized because a suitcase fell on him. But when the Doctor
said it was a Lung Problem, I thought. I didn't remember Aries smoking. He jogs hard in the morning so how
could he have a Lung problem? "Because Aries... He's in the hospital." I almost whispered my answer. "Why?" "
He said a Lung problem." Keifer fell silent. I don't know but he suddenly started to get angry. I stared at him
and suddenly 'Second hand smoke' came to my mind. "Did you smoke in front of Aries before?" "You shouldn't
ask me that. You should ask his classmate. They're the ones he often hangs out with." He said while smirking
at me. "...besides, I only smoked a few months after Percy died." That means they won't be together anymore.
But how could Aries have a Lung problem. I hope it's not what I think is a lung disease. It's scary. Suddenly,
Keifer grabbed my hand. "Aries will be okay too ." I smiled at him but suddenly I grimaced when I heard Ci-N
coughing. It felt like she was going to choke on her cough. Along with her coughing, she uttered the word 'Ang
sweet'. What a child! The vipers kept looking at her. I was forced to let go of Keifer. I knew that she already
knew that Ci knew something. Our next teacher arrived after Sir Alvin. During class, there was a time when I
looked at Yuri's seat. What if she went back to her old self again? What if she went to Leo aka Tiger again.
Please don't! Someone suddenly kicked my chair. I almost screamed. I looked at Keifer angrily because he
was the only one next to me who could do that. He was dead angry and staring at the board. Why is it
happening again?! I adjusted my seat and suddenly my bench shook. The legs of the bench were no longer
even. I was so angry! I tried to fix it and that's why she looked at me. "Ms. Mariano? Is there a problem?" Our
teacher asked. "Sorry. I'll just fix my bench." I said and stood up. Ma'am just nodded at me and let me continue
what I was doing. While standing, someone suddenly pulled me. I was so shocked that I sat straight on the lap
of....Keifer? Anaknang! The whole class immediately looked at me. I was about to stand up when the
shameless one grabbed my waist. I felt so embarrassed. My cheeks were getting hot. Then my heart was
beating faster. Just slow down, brad! "Mr. Watson and Ms. Mariano." The teacher called us. Ci-N suddenly
raised her hand. "Correction. Mrs. Watson, please." The whole class gave a loud scream. Animals! "Keifer...
What? I'm going back to my seat." I said with a hint of pleading. "Stay here." He ordered and looked at our
classmates. "...Eren! Fix her chair." What?! Eren came over and forced my chair to be adjusted. I don't know
how long I've been here on his lap but I don't like it. Really?! I like it----No! The whole class's attention is on us.
Some are excited like Ci-N, but I couldn't escape the ones with serious looks and obviously not happy and
some are indifferent like Josh and David. Eren finished so I immediately went back to my seat. I just bowed, I
wasn't happy or excited. Who wants that kind of attention? The class ended without me paying attention to
the annoying King of Snakes . I felt like he had planned what happened earlier. The next teacher arrived and
had a long discussion . "Mr. Watson! Are you listening?" our teacher asked. I glanced at him and then I noticed
that he was staring at me. He turned to our teacher and smiled. "Yes, I am." "Then explain this." The teacher
said while pointing at the board. He stood up and started speaking. To be honest, I didn't understand anything
he was saying. Actually, I didn't understand anything in the lesson. I wasn't listening. He suddenly stopped and
turned to me. "What's the Tagalog for profit again?" Profit... Kita? "Kita or kinita, I guess." I hesitated to answer.
He went back to explaining. I just noticed something, because his explanation was in English. What
connection did that have to what he asked me? He stopped explaining again and turned to me again. "What
about Expensive Profit?" Is that there? I shook my head at him because I didn't know the answer but he was
waiting. I wasn't sure that's why I couldn't bring myself to answer. "I love you already?" He smiled at me. "I love
you too." Oh shit! The loud screams from the kids came again. All of a sudden, he was snoring like that. I just
had to bow down. I didn't want to show them my face. It was so hot and even though I couldn't see, I knew I
was blushing. I bit my lower lip to make the feeling go away . It was annoying! Ma'am went back to teaching. I
didn't want to look at or notice this Stupid King of Snakes. I felt like if I paid attention to him, he would do
something stupid again. Lunch came and even then I would stay away from him. I always said I would help
Eman. Even if I didn't do anything, I would still help, I just stayed away from him. Maybe he noticed what I was
doing to avoid him. During the next subject, he kept calling and touching me but I didn't pay attention to him.
"Jay..." Don't pay attention! He'll just make a scene. "Jay-jay..." Keifer pay attention! "Jasper..." Take care of
yourself! "Jean..." Go away! "Mariano..." I don't care about you! "Watson." It's you, not me! "Jasper Jean
Mariano Watson." Huh?! Even though I didn't look, I could feel her smirking. I also felt like I was about to get
mad at her. "My wife..." Stop it! "My life..." Hmm?! "My everything..." What is she saying?! "Pay attention Jay...
You still want Keifer to sing to you." Calix said and I immediately looked at her evilly. She just laughed at me.
The others were also watching us. Why did our teacher take so long? "Hey..." Keifer called me again. This time,
I faced her. "Why?" "Do you want lips?" She asked while smiling. One of my eyebrows raised. I think she's
addicted to these videos! "...here!" She took something from her pocket and handed me four pieces of Lips
Candy. I thought it was Lips. I also wanted something sweet so I was going to get some. Keifer suddenly
pulled away his hand holding the Candy. I, Tanga, chased him a bit and barely approached him. The
shameless one... Bow! The shameless one, took the opportunity and suddenly brought his face closer to
mine. There you go! Shutanginames! I was deafened. Not because of the loud shouting of the Ulopongs
accompanied by the clatter on the table. I was deafened because of the fast beating of my heart. "Lips are
delicious, aren't they?" He said while smiling. Stupid! I stood up in shock. I was about to speak, but my tongue
had already retracted. Nothing was coming out. I just stumbled and walked out of the room. I went straight to
the second floor of the building. It was a joke! Yes... we kissed but not in front of others. I don't like that! And I
don't like what he's doing either. Even if Yuri isn't around, I feel like I'll still hurt him. I've lost the will to go in. I
sat on the floor while leaning against the wall. "Jay..." Someone called me. When I turned around, it was just
Drew and Denzel. I was a little nervous, maybe it was a ghost. "Why?" They came over to me and sat next to
me. "Are you and Keifer?" Drew asked. I saw Mayo who was right next to them. She looked serious, looking at
me. "Is it true? Are you and Keifer?" She asked. "H-no." "Ci-N just said. She said you had something." Drew said,
shocking me. That kid! You didn't hide anything from that person. You just blurted it out. He'll get ready for me
later. "You chose Keifer? What about Yuri?" Denzel asked worriedly . "You should have chosen Yuri." Mayo
said. "I can't teach that heart." I almost whispered my answer. "Even though... You don't understand." Drew
added. I looked at them in surprise. "Panung..." Denzel stood up from sitting next to me. " Keifer will just make
you cry." Drew followed him. "I hope you don't regret not choosing Yuri." What the... "Section E has split again. I
just hope you don't get caught up in our fight." Mayo said and walked away. Denzel and Drew followed her. I
was left confused by what she was saying. No matter what happens. Think about it all. There was a big mess
in Section E because of that love triangle. I don't want you to experience what Ella went through. ---Mica
(Chapter 119---Christmas Part 5.0) I just slapped my forehead. What did I do? Will that happen again? What
will I do? +
