Pagsisimula ng tropa (Part 1)

Siguro naman alam niyo na kung paano nagkaroon ng mga kasintahan ang mga tropa ko at syempre ako rin. Pero may kulang na impormasyon.

Hindi ko pa fully na ikuwento kung paano nabuo ang samahan naming anim.

Sige simulan ko na ha.....

Grade 6 nung may bago kaming mga transferee, syempre lahat kami excited kasi mamaya mga matatalino, o kaya naman kung pogi ba o maganda diba?

Then fast forward to the first day, maaga pa lang nagkakagulo na yung mga kaklase namin pati yung mga ka-building namin. Edi syempre nagsisiksikan kami, tapos out of nowhere may tumulak sa akin. Edi aray, pero buti na lang at kasama ko si Lilac noon kaya may tumulong agad sakin.

Syempre sa sobrang galit ko nakipagsiksikan din ako para maka hanap na agad ako ng upuan sa room. And thankfully maagang nakarating si Maira kaya may nakapag-reserve na ng upuan para sa amin.

At that time, section 2 si Marielle kaya hindi pa namin siya kilala, but eventually we became friends by shear coincidence.

Five minutes before classes syempre nagdaldal muna kami and then, the tranferees are just so quite. Then may biglang sumigaw.

“Wag na kayong mahiya! Magkakapamilya na tayo ngayon!”, at bigla ring lumapit.

At oo si Axel yung sumigaw, as I’ve mentioned magkapatid/kambal sila Julius at Ryan. Syempre akala namin nung una may sarili silang mundo kasi nga kambal diba. Then Ryan spoke.

“Hindi kami nahihiya, it’s just that we haven’t touched up on our Tagalog yet. So it’s hard for us to adjust. Especially si Julius.”.

“Kaya ko yung sarili ko. And I do know a few Tagalog.”,dagdag bigla ni Julius.

Their accent in speaking bad Tagalog was so sexy.

“Ay Conyo pala tong mga toh. Ay wew rich kid.”, bulong sa amin ni Maira.

“We’re going to get along great you guys.”, biglang sulpot ni Evan.

“Weh? Buraot ka lang eh. Style mo bulok!”, sigaw ni Lilac.

“Di wow ka Lilac, kaya walang nagkakagusto sayo ih. You’re such a snob!”, balik ni Evan kay Lilac biglang irap.

But we didn’t know at the time na may gusto na pala sila sa isa’t isa. Me and the others knew each other for years, but some just tranferred along the way.

Me, Lilac, Maira, and Axel were classmates since we were in 2nd Grade and Evan transferred last year.

Back to the story......

Nagsimula na yung klase blah-blah-blah. Then it was finished.

Then recess, since this was a private school may Cafeteria kami. We’re not rich, at least I’m not.... I got into scholarship that’s why I was in that school. At least I get to be with my friends for that long.

That’s when we met Marielle, since I was the Class Representative and so was Maira. We get to tour the Conyo transferees.

While we took a break we stopped by the Cafeteria then bigla bigla na lang sumulpot kung saan si Marielle at nabangga ko!

Pero dahil sa fast reflexes ni Julius na suportahan niya si Marielle.

“Oh my god, sorry po. Hindi ko po nakita. Pasensya na po.”, paumanhin ko sa kanya.

“Ok lang buti na nga at nasalo ako ng kasama niyo eh. Sige pala.”, balik niya at umalis para samahan ang mga kaibigan niya.

“Nice catch Julius, ano sabay na ba tayo kina Lilac?”, tanong ko sa kanilang tatlo.

“Uh yeah, tara na Julius.”, dagdag ni Ryan.

We walked towards Lilac’s table, kasama niya sina Axel at Evan. At you guessed it, nag-aaway pa rin sila Lilac at Evan.

“Huy! Wag nga kayong ganyan, may bago tayong mga kasama diba? Mahiya ka nga Evan, pinapatulan pa yung babae.”, pagalit ni Maira.

Maira was like the mom of our group. Hindi sa sipsip siya, panganay kasi siya kaya sanay na siyang mang-lecture.

“Umayos na nga lang kayo.”, dagdag ko na lang.

“Thanks for sitting with us. Pero, mag-jowa ba kayo ni Lilac, Evan? No offense pero its just the way you act towards her you know?”, tanong bigla ni Ryan.

“Ayan jowa ko? Sus! Mamatay na lang ako.”, balik ni Evan.

“Nako, ako pang pumatay sayo.”, sabat ni Lilac.

Let’s skip a few months, and fast forward to Sportsfest. This usually takes place at the Second Quarter along with Journalism.

So yun na nga, lahat dapat may salihan na activity, kahit isa lang. So me, Lilac and Maira picked badminton, pero kulang ng isa kaya nang-hiram kami sa kabilang section ng isa pang estudyante. So we picked Marielle, wala na din kasi siyang ibang pwede makasama.

First day ng Sportsfest namin, our sportsfest lasted for one week.

So sa first day, Prelims. Sa second Semifinal, third is for Pageant, fourth is finals, then fifth is for the overall awarding.

For me and Marielle, yes we ended up being partners.... natalo agad kami sa Prelims. On the other hand nanalo hanggang Semi sila Lilac at Maira.

Not sure what sports the boys joined, I don’t care either. Pero dito na kami lahat nag kainitan.

You see during the Pageant, we get to choose ONE representative for each Grade, kaya kung ilan mang section yan isa lang dapat sa bawat grade. We ended up choosing, Julius and Marielle. Lahat kami shinip sila, kasi ang cute nila pag naging couple. Di ko alam kung komportable sila nun pero, we instantly regretted it.

Mula second day ginagawa na nung mga natalo sa Prelims at Semis, yung Costume nilang dalawa. May sports pa yung mga lalaki kaya di sila nakatulong sa amin pero nakabisita naman sila, tuwing break.

At first nag-eenjoy pa kami, tapos biglang nag-quit si Marielle bilang Muse namin kasi daw magkaka-COMPLICATIONS pag siya yung sumali.

After that we tried to guess kung bakit siya nag-quit, then may nakapag-sabi na magkasama daw sila ni Julius bago siya mag-quit. And so Chismis struck the Grade 6 building.

May nagsasabi na nag-away ang dalawa ng oras na iyon, meron naman may ibang gusto na kasama si Julius at pinaki-usapan si Marielle na mag-back out.

Pero ang nag-stand out na ideya ay nag-confess si Marielle tapos ni reject ni Julius. I got worried so I asked Maira and Lilac to help me investigate.

“Guys, may kilala ba kayong nakakita sina Julius at that exact moment?”, tanong ko na lang.

“I asked pero..... di na niya alam yung nangyari next.”, balik ni Lilac.

“Wait ok lang, sino ba yun?”, tanong ni Maira.

“Uhmm, si Evan.”, sagot ni Lilac.

Nagtinginan kami ni Maira at natrigger ang pagiging ma-isyu namin.

“Ahh, bakit kayo magkasama ni Evan?”, tanong ni Maira with a suspicious looking smile.

“Maira please. Tigilan mo na yang pagiging ma isyu mo. Kakabasa mo ng webtoons yan.”, balik ni Lilac.

“Sige na wag mo nang sagutin yun, pero saan na lang sila nagpunta? Nakasalalay ang reputasyon ni Marielle dito!”, sabi ko na lang sa kanila.

And then the war begun....

“Why do you care about my reputation?”, biglang tanong ni Marielle na nasa likod na pala namin.

Umikot ako ng mabagal para tingnan kung nandoon ba talaga siya, o kaya naman ay iniimagine ko lang. Pero there she is standing proud.

“Marielle look, you’re a great person. And I get to see that for myself when we played badminton together. So I want to help you resolve the problem you’re facing right now.

P-pero, if you don’t want me to interfere I won’t... I promise. I’m sorry.”, pagpapaliwanag ko sa kanya.

“I appreciate you helping me, but the problem was resolved itself. So wag na kayo mag-alala. By the way, may napili na ba kayong bagong Muse? Tandaan niyo bukas na yung pageant.”, paalala nito sa amin.

“Hindi ba dapat ikaw yung pumili? kasi ikaw yung papalitan?”, dagdag ni Maira.

“Gawin na lang nating majority, para ok sa lahat.”, sinaggest ni Lilac.

“Sige para wala ng reklamo yung iba.”, sabi ko sa kanila.

After that conversation we didn’t mind the problem that happened between Julius and Marielle. A girl from another section ended up being the new Muse because she was the one who was familiar with the program. Though our representatives ended up losing either way.

\(It’ll be over soon\)
