haha,, teka... uupdate ako bago umalis [hr] [b]Chapter 07[/b] “Hey Ms. Samantha, can I please borrow your chemistry notebook?” Sam was so shocked to see Will in front of her, smiling. It was very cute of him to smile that way, very innocent looking. [i]Is this a dream? Why is this guy so totally polite towards me[/i]? Sam has no idea of what had happened to him. He was very opposite from the Will she had known before. “Why? Slow enough to take down notes?” Sam thought of having revenge. All these time, he was always teasing her. She thought this is the time where the events would turn upside down. “What slow are you talking about? Oh, I know! Maybe your handwriting is awful. So awful enough even a rat would puke! Hahaha. I understand why you don’t want me to see it. Anyway, I'll just borrow from someone who have good handwriting.” Will went out the room. Sam was completely ashamed of herself. Her revenge backfired. She still can’t win over the annoying guy. She is in deep thought on what to do with him. “Sammie… you seem to be seriously thinking about something.” Lou had appeared from nowhere. “Uh, well… you see, I was actually annoyed by this Villanueva guy. If only I can bring out his negative side in front of my brother, I could definitely sleep peacefully. He always annoys me and I can’t think of a way to make him feel annoyed.” She sighed, still thinking. “I think he doesn’t know that you are Drei’s sister that’s why he treats you like that. It’s natural for some boys to be annoying. At least he had never done anything bad to you. Had he?” “I suppose you’re right. He still doesn’t know about me being Drei’s sister. My brother never mentions me to his team, as if he has reasons to. Although some of them know me, but I don’t think that they’re the type of people who’d go telling others about me right? That’s it. Will doesn’t know about me and Drei!” Several thoughts build up Sam’s mind. [i]Yes, he doesn’t know about me.[/i] Not. Will had considered the possibility that Sam and Drei are siblings. Of course, he never told anyone from the team about it. He had never shown anyone interest about it too. He had a feeling that he is right. That Sam is Drei’s sister. The class was dismissed earlier. The checker had passed by the room, and since there’s still no professor around, the 15-minute rule was made into effect. At RNU, if the professor hadn’t arrived within 15 minutes after the start of class hours, and the checker passed by, he is considered absent. Same thing goes to students – in less that 15 minutes, you’re late; beyond that, you’re absent. Everyone fixed their things and prepared to leave. The students who were in the corridors went in to get their things, including Will. As Samantha picked up her cute pink pen with fancy feathers, her cute metallic pink cellphone beeped. [quote]Sam: [i]Hello?[/i] Drei: [i]Sammie, we have practice today. I’m sorry I forgot to tell you this morning[/i]. Sam: [i]It’s okay. Want me to come and watch?[/i] Drei: [i]No, I want you to go home early. Don’t wait for me, and the practice is at 4pm, it’ll probably end late.[/i] Sam: [i]But I don’t have anything to do[/i]. Drei: [i]You are free to clean the house. Hahaha. Anyway, you know how to go home so there’s no problem right? Why not ask Lou to give you a ride home?[/i] Sam: [i]Hey, I’m not like that. And besides, maybe he has plans[/i]. Drei: [i]I need to go. I need to fix things here. Just go home okay?[/i] Sam: [i]O-kay[/i].[/quote] Sam was disappointed that her brother didn’t allow her to come to the gym. She still doesn’t want to go home. It’s boring at home. There’s nothing to study since there are no exams coming yet. Lou might have plans. Besides, he’s been busy lately about the things that he does in the department. What is it about anyway? “Uhm, hey Villanueva, do you have any plans today?” Samantha asked Will politely. “Oh, Sam I heard there will be a practice game at the gym after class. Are you going to watch?” Obviously, Sam forgot to tell Lou about his brother not wanting her to watch the practices. “You were saying what again, Ms. Samantha?” Will hadn’t understood or perhaps heard what Samantha had said earlier. “I was asking if you are free today, I mean… if you have any plans after this class.” “So, finally… you decided to take me on a date huh? Haayy… girls today, they always make the first move.” “Don’t get it wrong Will,” Samantha said calmly, controlling her temper. “I was just wondering if you could teach me the Cramer’s Rule.” “Cramer’s Rule? Are you serious? But you are good in algebra??” Sam is really good in Math, which is why she decided to go for engineering. She’s even the top Math quizzer in her high school years. “Well, yeah… I know I’m good and all, but I just can’t seem to make it clear for myself. It’s like my weakness… “ “Okay, then you owe me a favor huh!” The two of them decided to go to the library. Sam was very curious why Will is not bothered. [i]But if the practice was cancelled, then kuya should have told me[/i]. Sam thought. “Uh, hey I heard you’re part of the basketball team?” “Oh, yeah. Are you a fan of the RNU basketball team? Or perhaps someone from the RNU Blazing Lions?” Will is smart enough not to show Samantha that he is trying to see if Sam would say that she knows Drei, or even someone from the team. “Hmm…not much. But I do watch sometimes. By the way, they said that the friendship match is near. Don’t you have any practice today?” “Hmm…the match? I’m excited about it actually. And about the practice, I don’t have one now.” Samantha is still persistent on making Will attend the practice that late. “But I heard the captain is strict and they have practices now, if you’re gonna go there, although late, at least you showed up.” “Okay, I don’t have to attend. The captain said so himself. Wait, are you trying to make me miss or rather attend late at the ‘so-called practice’ you’re saying?” Will obviously had thought about the situation. He’s one smart guy! “No, no. Don’t get me wrong. I really don’t know what you’re talking about.” Sam was very nervous, although she really tried hard not to show it. “I see…you’re really sure about that huh?” Sam nodded. “Hmm…you seem to be a fast learner.” Will said, looking at Sam’s worksheet. All questions have the correct answers. Well, she should have at least made the other numbers wrong. Right? “He…he… yeah. Thanks. I'll go home now.” Sam stood up. “Wait,” Will got hold of her hand, he was just actually aiming for the arm, but since Sam stood up quickly, it was her hand that Will caught. “Yes?” Sam was blushing a bit. [i]But why?[/i] She even asked herself. “Uhm, do you like…uhm…want to have a ride? I mean… if you’re going home alone, isn’t it a bit late? It’ll just be a few minutes the driver will come pick me up.” [hr] Yay! I'm off to tagaytay! Wee~
