Chapter 7
Orpheline ( JENLISA )*SEULGI'S POV*
"Hey, loser." Narinig ko na may sumigaw at tumingin naman ako. Grabe, wala na bang magandang magawa sa buhay niya si Irene Bae.
Isa sa mga pinagsisisihan ko ay yung naging crush ko siya dati. Kung alam ko lang na ganito pala ang ugali niya, who you siya sakin agad. Sobrang ng ugali niya. I mean.. Nung una, I hated them all. Ruby and her angels. Pero nitong mga nakaraang buwan narealize ko na bagamat si Jennie ang queen bee ng school, si Irene ang queen .
Rosé.. She's actually a good person. Nataon lang na naging tropa siya with the school bullies. She exerts efforts to prevent Irene from teasing us.. Pero minsan talaga may sa dimunyu talaga si Irene at di mapigilan. Sometimes I wonder what happened to her which made her like this. Nauntog kaya siya nung bata? O baka nasapian? O baka may mga tao talagang nangmamata ng iba just because they can.
Lisa, Jisoo and I promised ourselves when we were younger na we would not let others belittle us just because we're orphans and now because we're poor. Pero ngayong Irene and her groupies won't let us breathe in peace, we decided to just let them be, unless magkapisikalan na which is a different matter.
So here I am beside the pool, specifically sa tabi ni manong na nagluluto ng barbeque na magisang kumakain dahil hinayaan kong sundan ni Lisa si Jennie. Those two had a lot of catching up to do so I let them be.
"Patay gutom, excuse me!" Irene exclaimed sabay tulak sakin sa pool.
SPLASH.
The next thing I knew I was soaking wet. I cursed inside my head dahil sa sobrang inis ko. Moments after I finally had the courage to get out of the pool. I saw Irene still standing right at the place where she pushed me, she was smirking. Putangina. I held both of her arms with my wet hands and looked directly into her eyes, I was gritting my teeth.
"I figured you'd want to take a bath. Libre tubig dito." she spat and it made me even angrier. I saw her eyes as it glimmered nang makita niya na mas lalo akong nagalit. At nagising ako finally, these bullies get fed by seeing the bullied like this. I almost lost it to a bully. Kaya naman I let her go and she seemed shocked dahil akala niya paptulan ko siya.
I heaved a sigh as I whispered "I can't believe I looked up to you before." at umalis na ko pagkatapos nun.
Dumiretso ako sa comfort room and I stood there looking at myself in the mirror for a little while. I chose not to find Lisa and tell her about what happened. Instead, I texted her saying na I needed to go home para hindi ko maistorbo yung catch up time nila ni Jennie since bihira lang sila magkausap dahil sa tropa ni Jennie.
Knowing Lisa, she always wanted to talk to Jennie since school started pero dahil sa mga circumstances ay napigilan siya. And I won't let a little.. hay. A little basang sisiw a.k.a. me interrupt them. Kaya naman I chose to go home alone.
Umalis na ako sa bahay ni Rosé at nagsimula na ko maglakad pauwi. Nanga
