What the fck! Why I didn't feel her presence? Wait, girls comfort room?

I know that I didn't look at the sign, but no matter how I look at the design in these comfort room it's men's comfort room.

She's blushing and she look angry, well I don't care. She's the one who's at fault here.

I look at the sign outside to check and just look at her as if I'm questioning her if she's blind or stupid.

"Damn nerd, WHY ARE YOU LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT!?"

I decided to walk away, but before I take a step, she pull me. I almost lost my balance because my one foot are hanging in attempt to walk away, but she suddenly pull me back.

"What the hell is your problem!?" and I snapped.

Yes, I'm nerd, but I definitely have courage to fight back. She look at me angrily as if she's ready to kill a person right here, right now.

I take her hands off me and turn around at her but before I get a look at her and snap again, I receive a blow and I immediately lose my balance.

When I lose my balance and fell on the floor, I immediately receive a kick from many guys. I receive a kick here and there, I look at them and realize who are they.

"Maximo... you--, it's you again!"

I place my hands on my stomach because it hurts like hell. I receive a couple of kick on my face and my nose and lips bleed. My eyeglass were not caught on the kick and it didn't break so I can see them stop after that kick.

"If I didn't hear Thea's scream, I wonder what sin you might commit and hurt her." He said gallantly as if he save the damsel princess in the hands of dragon.

I get up slowly to support my balance. I feel my bones aching, my whole body is in pain. I walk away slowly and not dared to look at them.

"They got me, I didn't even feel his presence. That Maximo, always ganging me with his friends." I said angrily.

I need to get a bandage and clean my bruises. That Maximo, I'll get him someday. I go to the clinic and knock on the door. A few seconds, she answered and I open the door.

I walk towards to the school nurse to get medical attention. She look at my bruises and look at me in the eyes, she look so worried.

"Dale, tell me, you're always go to this clinic full of bruises. Is there anyone bullying you?" She ask.

Bully? Childish words, but it is a serious matter when it happens.

"Ms. Mondragon, there's no one bullying me. I'm just a clumsy person." I said while scratching my cheeks.

Of course I wouldn't dare to tell her, it will just bother her, and she's my aunt from the States. She will stay here for good, and since she's staying here, I recommend this school to her. She is a professional doctor after all.

She's not working yet in the hospital, because she wants to monitor me. But day after day, she always worried about me. She suspect that something going on me, for example, like I'm getting bullied. In fact, it is true.

"Your always formal to me, just call me aunt, okay?" She always pestered me about it.

My aunt is a real beauty, she is in the age of being married, but she didn't even have a boyfriend. When I ask her if she is a lesbian, she said that she is focus on her career as a doctor.

"Jeez, okay. Aunt, I need disinfectant and gaza." I said.

She get the disinfectant and gaza. She start cleaning the surrounding of my bruise and small wounds, then clean the bruises afterwards. She cover my bruises and small wounds with gaza.

She smile at me. She might be remembering when I was a child. She's in highschool that time and she always took care of me, I always ended up having bruises and small wounds after playing outside. Of course, my mom taking care of me also but since she has a job, my aunt always taking care of me, when mom is not around.

My Aunt Claire Mondragon is my father little sister. She's staying on our house, but after my father leave the house and went missing, aunt Claire went to States and finish her studies there. It seems that she went to States to look for my father, but she didn't find him. Anyways, my aunt is kind person, second to my mom of course.

When she finish cleaning my bruised and wounds, I thank her and leave. I need to change my polo shirt. I go to the changing room and open my locker.

The students here are educated enough to not to pull a locker prank. I know that.

I get my extra polo shirt in the locker and start changing. I need to change immediately so I can attend at the only class that Carmela and I attend together. She is from the same department, but she take different course.

BS Accountancy is what she take, we have the same bookkeeping and accounting subject in same schedule and prof. This is the only subject that we have the same, so I always making sure that I attend this subject on time.

Since James and Carmela start dating, we can just hang out for an hour, but a two or more hours are impossible. Since this a 3hrs subject, I can talk and laugh with her for more than 1 hr. We usually have short discussion and more activities, so I usually talk her more in this subject after I submitted my activity.

I heave a sigh of relief, it looks like the class is still not starting. The students in the front are talking so loudly, at the back, they are singing and play guitar. This are their stress reliever, but God, they are so damn annoyingly loud and my ears hurt.

I left the room and sat at the bench near the flowers, infront of the room. I always sit there whenever are professor are late. The surrounding in here are more quiet compared to the classroom.

I felt a tap on my shoulder, and since I got punched earlier, I didn't turn my head around to look at the one who tap my shoulder.

"S-sorry, damn nerd." Said by the one who tap my shoulder.

I turn around and see Thea Adriano. She is the campus queen in this campus, and by the way, she is the one who mistaken the girls comfort room for boys.

I put down her hand, "It's alright." I said

She walk away. She might just want to say that.

I just sigh. I didn't thought that campus queen would mutter that words. She's egoistical woman, and always full of pride, never in my dreams that I would hear that words coming out from her mouth.

"Mr. Modragon, go inside. I will start the class regardless of wasted time." My professor who's late said.

I stand up and follow her inside the room. The room quieted down when the professor go inside.

O' I forgot, there's always activity regardless of time and discussed lesson.

"Okay, balance this."

She left the room and we start our activity, I turn my head around the classroom and I don't see Carmela. I bet she is with James, darn, I wish that it could be me. But no matter how many times I wish it, it will never happen as long as she love him.

I heave a sigh, I thought that we could be together for atleast 3hrs in this subject. She's always busy, on her academics and to James, and if we are together, she's always have a problem with James.

I feel it and sometimes I wonder, I wonder if she's hanging out me to past time. I feel bad for thinking like that, I'm always like this.

I tried to calm myself stop thinking like this. I removed my eyeglass and fix my hairstyle. I am good looking guy, I'm not flattering myself, I just have my mothers face. My mom is a real beauty, and I have her genes, so naturally I have a good looks also. But, whenever I see my face, my heart aches.

No matter how many times I run from my past, it always hunted me. I guess, I'm fixing myself as a nerd after all. I love her, but I don't want to use my looks to catch her attention. I know Carmela, she's not the type to look at the looks, she's a kind of girl you will love more. I deeply care for her and knew that no matter how I changed, she will not look at me in romantic way.

Time pass by and 3hrs are done as well as my activity, she dismissed us and I leave the room fast. I quickly get my things and plan to leave the campus immediately to avoid more fights with Maximo. My patience with him are not unlimited, I will snap if he will not stop bothering me.

"Clumsy nerd, it looks like that you know that I'm not finished with you. Are you in rush? scared of me?" She said it with pride.

I sigh, there he goes again.
