THE GOOD EQUAL | #TGEC10
IRIS
It seems like everything is back to normal. I still get subtle looks from my schoolmates but its minimal compared last Monday where everyone made it their agenda to gossip what happened between me and the SC President.
Hindi na ako hinahatid ni Kaia sa class ko sa RIPH dahil start na ng training nila ng sayaw sa Comm Synergy para sa darating na General Assembly. Sinabihan ko na rin naman siya na huwag na akong ihatid kasi sanay na naman ako.
I need to be used to it. That's the only option.
However in this class, since pugad ito ng mga engineering—and Joaquin belongs in this block, the teasing between me and Joaquin

THE GOOD EQUAL | #TGEC11IRISToday is our General Assembly at walang class. Buong maghapon lang daw kami sa theater—according to Kaia, and I'm running late.I'm wearing a white mesh ruffled halter dress and crop top denim jacket and white shoes. I thanked myself that I chose to wear these matches because I was free to run. Kanina ko lang kasi naisipan gawan ng banner si Kaia at late na ako natapos. Sasayaw na kasi CommSy mamaya. And I want to show my support to her.Malapit na ako sa theater nang may makita akong dalawang tao papalapit sa akin. They were already looking at me. Ugh. Baka i-ambush interview pa ako ng dalawang 'to. Late na nga ako e!

THE GOOD EQUAL | #TGEC12IRIS"Parang may hindi ka sinasabi sakin..." Kaia whispered. Paakyat na kami sa first class namin. Back to normal na naman ulit."Ano?" tanong ko."I'll give a clue: Iris and Joaquin."Lumingon ako sa kanya. Anong sa amin ni Joaquin? Tungkol pa rin ba 'to sa game?"Naka move-on na buong SVU sa 5 seconds namin ni Joaquin, Kaia. Mag move-on ka na rin."Kaia laughed, "Gaga, hindi kasi 'yon...and thanks for reminding that event again. Never ata akong makaka move-on dyan."I ro

THE GOOD EQUAL | #TGEC13IRIS"Guys paakyat na si Attorney!" yelled Mason.Nagtransform agad kami pabalik sa upuan namin dahil nasa labas kami ni Kaia nagbabasa.May tiga look-out kami kay Atty—hindi kasi siya nagtetext sa class rep namin kung papasok siya o hindi—kaya kapag wala pa siya ng 15 minutes, umaalis na kami.Pero mukhang tuloy ang recit ngayon."Anong dala?" tanong ni Marc.Sumilip sa pinto si Mason, "Phone, wallet...and fucking index cards!"I groaned. Shit!

THE GOOD EQUAL | #TGEC14IRISOur prelim grades were enough valid proof that we should do better this midterm exam week—particularly our grade in DevComm. I don't want to add more anger towards our Prof in DevComm for giving me a grade of 2.75 because I knew that she has a rational reason for giving me so. I knew my mistakes on my prelim exam. Dapat nga matuwa pa ako dahil 'yong iba kong mga kaklase, kung hindi tres, singko ang nakuha.But my prof should've been more considerate before encoding our grades. Hindi niya na-ipaliwanag nang maayos ang prelim namin kaya hindi lahat alam 'yung gagawin.Tapos na 'yung midterm exams namin for our Wednesday's schedule—that was three subjects! Hilong

THE GOOD EQUAL | #TGEC15IRIS"Josh, asan si Kaia?" I queried Josh while he's busy ironing my hair.Josh looked at me from the mirror, "Hindi ko alam, e—nandito lang silang dalawa ni Marc kanina—baka lumabas."Lumapit sa amin si Patrice at may binigay siya kay Josh."Oy Pat, nakita mo ba sila Kaia?" asked Josh and Pat nodded."Magkakasama kami sa labas; sumali kami sa palaro ng CommSor," lumingon sa akin si Patrice. "Hanap mo si Kaia?""Ah, hindi naman.""Papuntahin ko siya dito mamaya

THE GOOD EQUAL | #TGEC16IRIS"Alam mo, sa history ng Comm Pageant, ikaw lang 'yung nanalo na mukhang talunan," Kaia blurted out. "Tapos naka-all black ka pa! 'Yung totoo, galing kang lamay no? Nag-pagpag ka ba bago ka pumasok ng school?"I looked at my outfit—I'm wearing a black one-shoulder top and black jeans. May suot din akong corduroy vintage jacket and black low-heel mountain shoes."Okay ka lang ba talaga? One-week ka ng gloomy," Kaia probed when I didn't answer."Okay lang ako. Matagal pa ba?" I asked, dodging the topic. Nasa labas kami ng Theater—may play kaming panunuorin at walang klase. Pinapila muna kami sa labas dahil may i

THE GOOD EQUAL | #TGEC17IRISI didn't eat for days...I can't eat. Sinusuka ko lang lahat. I informed Kaia that I was diagnosed with bulimarexia before—but I leave the part of why—nataranta kasi siya nang kumain kami tapos bigla akong tumakbo sa CR at isuka lahat ng kinain ko.It was already a routine. Sanay na ako. I was anorexic for a month...Hindi na rin naman napagtuunan ni Kaia 'yung nangyayari sa akin dahil tinambakan kami ng mga gawain ng mga profs namin. Silver lining was when we were automatically passed on our two major subjects because of the pageant.And now Kaia is begging

THE GOOD EQUAL | #TGEC18IRISMy sister was itching me to come early. Break na kasi niya sa work kaya nasa bahay na lang siya."Oo nga nakapag-empake na ako. Pupunta muna kami ni Kaia sa school ngayon para mag-enrol," I informed my sister over the phone.Mamaya na rin kasing 8pm ang flight ko, and Ate Irca was constantly reminding me to pack my things early para aalis na lang ako mamaya. I looked at my watch—it's 8:15 am already. Shit! 9 ang usapan namin ni Kaia."Sige na, pupunta na ako school," I said, bidding my goodbye to my sister.Pagkarating ko sa school ay nando'n na si Kaia sa waiting
