♥ One Year of Moving On
Lilliane woke up, then opened the curtain. The sky was dark, the clouds showed signs of rain that would soon pour down. She took a bath, even though the water was ice-cold. Then she dressed up, wearing her regular uniform. She got a black jacket and started going down the staircase.
Her maid didn't prepare anything for her to eat. Lilliane said "Good. At least it wouldn't be wasted" then her bus arrived, just as expected.
Her school bus waited in front of her house. The bus conductor, stood infront of their gate holding an umbrella. Lilliane walked towards the gate and let the rain pour down her hair. It was fine, her hair wasn't dry anyway.
Lilliane entered the school bus and just like the other days, students from a different school were there too. She was still feeling cold but tried to ignore it. Suddenly, Lilliane remembered her eyeglasses. So she asked the bus to go back to her house.
After getting her eyeglasses, the bus dropped the other students to their school. Then Lilliane transferred. She opened the window and felt the air. It was cold and it felt nice. She remembered, a year ago, December 5, started the same happy way. She wondered how it would turn out.
Her bus entered the school grounds. She walked with her second year friend but she wsn't wearing her jacket. It still felt cold, she smiled, talked with that second year and all. She then went to her classroom. Students in their school were allowed to go directly to their classrooms everytime it was raining.
She went to her place and drpped her things. Then she, sat down. She rested, and tried to sleep.
Her other classmates were there, laughing and all.
Time passed. They had a mass. She sat between two guys she doesn't know. Then she listened carefully to the priest. She could relate so she listened and all.
The mass ended. They went back to class. English time. They studied. Then recess. She didn't eat. She had to save up for the upcoming celebration. Then recess ended. Math time.
It was fun. The teacher, though, teased Sloanne. Math ended. It was Science time. They studied Chemistry. Then It was Filipino time. They studied the story Ibong Adarna. It was boring, Lilliane felt like sleeping, the truth is, she felt sick. Then Lunch time. They stayed at the Trellis. Chester approached her "Hey Lilliane, I need the money now." "Uhmm, I only have, 230 pesos or so." "Uhmm. we still lack 70 pesos." "Oh, I'll just borrow money from the class funds." "Ok." Then Lilliane gave the money to Chester.
Later on, Jaythe told her that she's gonna pay Terrence her remaining balance. Then "Oh, I almost forgot. I need to borrow money." Lilliane said. Instead of borrowing from Terrence she decided on asking Jaythe then, she would just pay the 70 pesos to Terrence the next school day. Jaythe agreed but still went to Terrence to give him the 100 pesos.
After a little while, Keeno called Lilliane. "Lilliane!" Then asked her to sit beside Terrence but she didn't. She just informed him about the money she borrowed. He took one glance of her and that's it. He remained silent and only nodded. Keeno still teased them, Nikki joined as well.
Nikki, Sloanne, Jaythe and Lilliane left Keeno's group and walked to the classroom. Then History class. Every Friday, they would have 2 hours of History. Lilliane used to LOVE history. That changed, after entering High School. For the first hour, they had their long quiz. The next hours, the class was totally chaotic. They didn't listen to the teacher, well they didn't know the teacher was giving lessons and all. Then the class ended.
Lilliane stayed with Sloanne and Nikki. Chester went to her, and told her that they would be staying at the bridge. They waited for the Pizzas but after a while, no pizza came. Chester called the restaurant to follow up the order. He was informed that the restaurant was waiting for some kind of confirmation so they didn't make the pizzas. Now, instead of the 4:15 pm arrival , it was changed into 5:15pm. "Exactly an hour after the expected arrival." Chester told the others. Lilliane rolled her eyes, then left the guys. She felt, Out of place there. Then she joined Nikki and the others, they played volleyball.
After a while, she saw, Sloanne sitting alone. She came to her and asked "Have you talked with Nate yet?" "No" was her reply. Nikki sat down beside Lilliane and told her, "Hey Lil. A while ago.. uhmm.. Laura asked me, 'Nikki, what's Sloanne and Lilliane doing there?' then I told her that you were waiting for the pizzas cause it's your celebration day. Then she said. 'Ahh we were the ones who told the teachers that they were playing at a computer shop.'"
Lilliane, turned her head towards Laura who was near them. She narrowed her eyes "So, she's admitting that she did that? Before they denied it and now.." Lilliane wasn't able to finish. She felt, annoyed.
Later on, Devin approached Lilliane. They went to the bridge but plans changed and they went to the chapel. They ate there. Devin started speaking "The firsr slice goes to the most innocent member of our group Angel's Cry? Oh wait.. Angel's kiss." Then he allowed Lilliane to have a slice. Then next was "2nd slice goes to, death wish." then "mighty wizard" then "bloody angel" then "suicide squad" then "strike raven" then last was their leader, Devin. Fiona wasn't able to join them. But they were still 7 there. A classmate of theirs came too. They talked about their past. Funny moments and instead of using drinks to cheers, they used pizzas.
Chester and Joe were the first people who left. For the others, they went to the teachers and gave away pizzas. They gave the last piece to Sir Miggy. He was the one who named them DK7.
Then the others left, Lilliane joined Nikki. They went to the comfort room. On their way, they saw Keira Greene. A Second year student. She said hi to Lilliane but even though they chat and Lilliane feels comfortable doing that. She still felt shy, like she wanted to run. She then said hi as well. Nikki and Lilliane continued walking.
Lilliane , after going to the comfort room returned with Nikki. Then "Nikki!" someone called out to her. Someone from the Teacher's faculty call out. Nikki knew who called her but pretended that it was Sir Demetri. The truth is, Sir Tony was the one who called her. "Why is it that when Sir Demetri calls you you would come to him and even put your arms on his shoulder?" Sir Tony asked. Then Nikki got more nervous then went to Sir Tony. Lilliane kept on laughing at the same time she thought of it as romantic. She saw Keira again. But still teased Nikki to Sir Tony.
She went with Sloanne and Keeno. They talked and stayed til 7pm. Then Nikki, Keeno and Lilliane rode the same tricycle. Then Lilliane felt happy after going home. She thinks Keeno's okay with her. She hopes she's right.
In her room. She sat down and thought "One year of moving on. *sigh*"
"I shed too many tears before but now I'm laughing at it. I guess, sometimes we just have to Accept. Let go. Move on. I saw my real friends through that experience and I'm stronger now. It's true everything happens for a reason. That there's a reason why people don't make it in our present. I'm happier now." Then she smiled. And as always, chatted with Terrence and her other friends.
Her maid didn't prepare anything for her to eat. Lilliane said "Good. At least it wouldn't be wasted" then her bus arrived, just as expected.
