The Three Idiots

09-3/2012

-OLIVIA-

"Hey, Three Idiots." the boy said.

The heck. I know that most highly annoying and irritating voice.

"Oy! Idiot!" he said.

One more, just one more

"Hey, the Three idiots! I'm calling you!" the annoying boy was talking to us continuously, but unfortunately for him, we are ignorant. Well, except me.

"Piece of-" Ring! Ring! Ring!

Suddenly, both Ginger and Sandra grab my hand. They have probably noticed my reddish face (which may be either from irritation or blushing). While being held by my two friends, I faced the boy saying, "Have a nice lunchtime, eat well! Let's go Ginger and Sandra *whispers: Let's leave that handsome buffoon."*

***

We're now in the School Canteen, having our lunch.

"Since when does a buffoon became handsome? Haha!" said the girl wearing a headband. My best friend, Cassandra Jane Lavarites, nicknamed 'Sandra'

"Haha, you know why she thinks of that." said my other best friend, Jo Ginger Villanueva.

"Ahh it's because she has a crush on Lu-"

"Just wait a second! We made code names for us to use especially if we're in the school campus, Sandra." I said sarcastically.

Code names. We made up code names for almost all our classmates for a reason, maybe for secrecy? Or maybe it's just that we're scared that this situation may get worse than it already is.

"Sorry, Madame." Sandra cheerfully said, calling me 'Madame' again. I'm called 'Madame' ever since we became best friends. Out of the three of us, I'm the serious one who always has a scary look.

"Good Girl."

"By the way, it's a good thing you can resist him, Drip." Ginger stated, making me rather baffled since that came out from nowhere.

"Ginger, are you a stalker? Just how in a world you know my pen name?" I asked her; expecting an explanation.

"Secret." She replied with a smirk

"You're right, Ginger. It's a good thing I resisted, I was thinking of throwing my shoes to him, but I just can't help but be mesmerized by his face," I joyfully said

"Oh, come on..." those two said in unison along with a facepalm

A minute passed, my two best friends started a conversation about Mira Swift and her newly released album. As usual, their faces look like puking rainbows with sparkling eyes which can rival the star's brightness. During the whole conversation, I remember the time why the whole bullying thing began; by telling the teacher our classmates are cheating their homework. Hmpf, how shallow. That moment after, the three of us are now known for being ' the Three Idiots.' It's not easy to ignore them since they use verbal and sometimes physical types of bullying. In my opinion, what hurts the most is my crush, Lucas Monteverde, is one of the bullies.

Lucas Monteverde (Code name: Paniq )

Handsome, talented, excellent in sports, and very smart. All in 1 package yet a failure in character. His only appealing point is that he is a genius in handling all technologies. He knows it all. He can fix all errors. Even the teachers are intimidated by his knowledge to the point that he corrects them. That's why I can't help but admire him but admiration is the only thing I feel for him besides annoyance, no more no less. Ginger once said, "There's a big difference between having someone to admire and being in love." Followed by Sandra saying "Eyes can be fooled but not the heart" which I do not have a clue in what that truly means. Also, I'm invisible to the eyes of the people especially those who I admire.

"MADAME!" ?! wait...

"Oh, you're finally awake from your daydream?" Sandra said while walking with Ginger to the- wait they're already finished eating? And they're heading towards the stairs to the 2nd floor while holding their ID and Library card which means...

The Heaven-sent place.

Library

"HEY! Wait for me!" I said; Running with bread in my mouth.

Meanwhile...

At the corner of the Canteen

-LUCAS-

"Hey, Lucas! Who are you looking for? Is it Therese? She's not in the Canteen. She's at the lobby and wait, are you really looking for Therese?" Rio asked

"huh? N- AH Yes! Yeah, where is she?"

"I already told you, She's in the lobby. Maybe planning another prank on the three idiots. Hahaha!"

"Oh right, thanks, Bro."

"No problem."

Dear Drip,

Today before class dismissal I got bullied again by my classmates alongside my friends. Describing us as '3 idiots' really hurt to the bone. Treating us like outcasts, scums, trashes, and worthless fools. It hurts, tsk. What a way to start my high school life. I just hate my life. Nothing goes well. No one is there to lend a hand and save me from the darkness. Being a fool of love, I'm still waiting. Waiting for a hand, a light, a savior. I'm still waiting for him. My Spongebob.

'Like a rain, full of sadness, always unwanted'

Sincerely Yours,
