"Ano bang problema mo?!" maangas kong tanong nang magkabanggaan kami ni Zicarion dito sa hallway.
Maraming mga estudyante sa paligid. May ibang nagkukwentuhan, naglalandian, o kaya'y mga nagpapaka-ewan.
"Ikaw." kalmado niya namang sabi kaya lalong uminit ang ulo ko. Noong nakaraang araw ay natapunan niya ako ng juice at ngayon, ito naman?
Kita ko ang ngisi sa mga pagmumukha nang mga ka-team mates niya sa basketball kaya't pinagtaasan ko sila ng kilay. Mga mukhang tsonggo na walang magawa sa buhay, pwe!
"Hoy, lalaking pangit, huwag na huwag mo na ulit akong pagdidiskitahan dahil isang beses pang gawin mo iyon, kamao ko na ang magiging karma mo." sabi ko sa kanya at napa-ohh naman ang mga kasama niya. Kita ko naman sa mukha niya ang pagkamangha. Huh! Anong akala niya, magtatago ako sa kung saan dahil sa takot? Pwes, nagkakamali siya kung ganoon.
"Pangit? Hmm, let's see. Oh wait, iniimbitahan nga pala kita bukas sa laro namin, manood ka, Angelica Sharmez." huli niyang sabi bago ako nilagpasan at ng mga kasama niya.
Napakuyom na lamang ako sa aking kamao at walang pakundangang sumigaw kahit na maraming tao sa paligid.
"Matalo sana kayo, Zicarion Taredo, mukhang tarantado!" sigaw ko at mahigpit na hinawakan ang strap ng backpack ko ng makitang winagayway niya lang ang kamay niya sa ere at lumiko na panganan.
"O, ano pang tinitingin-tingin niyo? Ang tsitsismosa niyo!" asik ko sa mga nakapaligid sa akin at mukhang nagbubulungan. Agad naman silang umalis at iyong iba ay halos mawalan na ng kulay sa mukha dahil sa pagsigaw ko.
Pumasok na lamang ako sa klase ko ngayong araw ng may init sa ulo at kunot-noo sa mukha. 'Yang Zicarion talagang iyan, ang sarap ipatiwarik sa punong maraming langgam!

Iniimbitahan niya ako sa laro nila bukas? Pwes, pupunta ako para makita ang pagkatalo niya!

Maingay ang paligid habang ako ay nakaupo lang dito sa bleachers ng covered court.
Boring lang akong nanonood nang laro ng lalaking iyon at hinihintay ko na lang na i-announce na talo sila.
"Go Papa Zicarion!" sigaw 'nung katabi kong babae kaya't agad akong napatakip ng aking tenga. Ang ingay, akala mo maririnig naman 'nung pangit na lalaki na iyon 'yung sinisigaw niya.
Lumipas pa ang ilang minuto at in-announce na nga ang nanalo.
"Our champion for this year is Blazing Phoenix!" umingay nang todo ang buong court habang ako nama'y nanlulumo.
Panalo sila, panalo ang pangit na iyon! Marahas akong tumayo at sumingit na lamang sa mga taong nakaharang sa daan papalabas ng court. Umiinit na naman ang ulo ko. Ha! Kakarmahin din ang lalaking iyon, tandaan niya!
"A-N-G-E-L-I-C-A!" rinig kong cheer ng pep squad ng school namin. Wait, spelling iyon ng pangalan ko, ha?
Napalingon ako sa harap pero naroon pa rin ako sa gitna, malapit sa entrance ng court. There is something here, nararamdaman ko iyon.
Lahat ng mga tao sa court ay bigla na lang pumagilid kung kaya't nakikita ko sa gitna si Zicarion, na may hawak na bulaklak at teddy bear sa kamay niya. Humakbang siya papunta sa akin kung kaya't agad akong nanigas sa kinatatayuan ko. Ibibigay niya ba sa akin iyan?
Malapit na siya sa akin pero bigla akong nakaramdam ng kung anong masakit sa may bandang dibdib at ulo ko kung kaya't napaupo ako.
Hindi ako makahinga. Wala akong makita. Madilim lang ang paligid at nakayapos lang ako sa sarili ko. Ayokong mag-isa. Ayokong maalala ulit iyon.
"A-Anak? Anak! Doc! Doc!"
Napamulat ako nang aking mga mata. Noong una ay hindi pa malinaw ang paligid pero naging malinaw na rin iyon makalipas ang ilang segundo.

Nakikita ko si mama sa harap ko habang pinupunasan niya ang kanyang mga mata ng isang panyo.
Biglang may dumating na mga nurse at doktor, ayon sa kanilang mga suot, at agad nilang tinignan ang kalagayan ko.
"M-Ma?" mahina kong bulong ngunit narinig pa rin iyon ni mama at dagling pumunta sa tabi ko.
"Nasaan po si, Z-Zicarion, ma?" tanong ko kay mama at kita ko ang bakas ng pag-aalala sa kanyang mukha.
"A-Anak, mamaya na lang tayo mag-usa--" hindi ko na pinatapos pa ang sasabihin ni mama at agad akong nagsalita.
"N-Nasaan siya, ma? Umalis ba siya o may kinuha lang sa labas?" tanong ko kay mama at bigla na lamang niya akong niyakap.
"Anak, p-patay na siya. Binigay niya ang p-puso niya sa iyo dahil maaari mong ikamatay ang malaking butas sa puso mo." nabingi ako sa aking narinig mula kay mama.
Parang may nakabarang malaking tinik sa lalamunan ko at hindi ko na halos makayanan ang sakit.
B-Bakit? Bakit niya binigay ang puso niya sa akin? Bakit siya namatay kung kailan hindi na isang kaaway ang tingin ko sa kanya kundi pagmamahal na?

Happy Ending
[You are mine and mine alone], a visual novel that was really popular and on top of the most played game this year, but out of nowhere, it vanished, alongside its memories from everyone's mind, except for a single player that found a glitch where one of the antagonists became a heroine. Now that character, programmed to kill, has found him in real life and weird things are going to happen to his everyday life, without a screen in his front to protect him. It doesn't matter if he wants or not; the game has already started. [][][][][] I wanna a shout out for my friend for this amazing cover he did! Here is a link for a page he posts the drawings he does for fun. For more explanations about it, read the author note in chapter 55. https://www.facebook.com/phillip.dreemurr.3?fb_dtsg_ag=Adye0R2CVuv09JqhVdg48VOWxPSZH6N1Co3SaVOmpri4Zw%3AAdw69zV67MTEEVSkloEFgy6loIZc6unrXRDFRzC5Di4N8Q

Campaign: A Project Starfarer Sidestory
This novel’s lore, story and characters are entirely fictitious. Certain long-standing countries, institutions, organizations, agencies, and public offices are mentioned, but their histories and the characters involved are wholly imaginary. "What will you do with your freedom?"Growing up in a meritocracy, infamous for being lawless, Jordan Astros had been repeatedly asked this question, since times unmemorable. In a society where one's accomplishments and skills were tallied and ranked in order to determine one's standard of living however, Jordan quickly grew to understand that 'freedom,' was a reward earned by accumulating Merit. And so, after his 17th birthday, Jordan departed his Clan's habitat in orbit of Europa to embark on his century-long journey to rise from E-Ranker to S-Rank. And spread his name throughout the Galilean Powers. *** Campaign is a sidestory within its NanoPunk parent series, Project Starfarer. (Yet to be published. Be on the lookout for it!) In which the first transhuman known to humanity, the Starfarer, invokes a plan to seed terrestrial life throughout the galaxy. Campaign takes place around the middle of that timeline and explores the life of a key figure in that universe, Jordan Astros. And explores one of four great nations thriving in the Solar System during that time. A Meritocracy that spans Jupiter and its 79 moons, The Galilean Powers. What you'll find in Campaign: Brutal melee combat in airless and pressurized low gravity environments. A technology based progression system influenced by merit and accomplishments; using tech that's theoretically possible to exist in the near-future. An exploratory perspective of the dozens of Galilean societies, or 'Powers,' from Jordans; and sometimes others', POV. What you wont find: Romance. Harems. An MC who receives shortcuts, handouts, learns things unnaturally fast or has OP plot armor. Jordan is not a special individual. Jordan is not OP and he likely never will be. He's no different than any other citizen in the Galilean Powers and will certainly face as many defeats as he does wins. He'll suffer losses and grow as an individual, while the Powers evolves around him as well. This is semi-hard sci-fi/NanoPunk and takes place in a fictional version of our future solar system. Centered around technology that's plausible in the near-centuries to come. Everything abides by the laws of physics/thermodynamics (As best that I understand them, at least. I'm no scientist.) No artificial gravity, inertial dampeners, teleportation, FTL, or hand-wavy materials will be found in the Project Starfarer universe. Just advanced automation, nanotechnology, cybernetics and AI. Set in the backdrop of space. *I do not own the photo used for the cover*
