There are things in this world that we cannot see clearly. Sometimes they are just people's imaginations and you may only read about them in books.

Peewee's last journal:
August 22,20**
There are things in this world that we cannot see clearly. Sometimes they are just people's imaginations and you may only read about them in books. Hiding because they know people will not understand them when they see them.
Evil but sometimes does inexplicable good. Things that... Things? They don't really matter, what am I saying?
They are not compatible. But not human either. Not a vampire like Edward Cullen, and not a werewolf like Van Helsing. They're not like Harry Potter, they don't have magic wands. They are not aliens with superpowers either, because they are not superheroes in the first place. Angel? Looks like an angel, yes. But in person, my grandmother's eyes are still vague. Well! What are they?
They are called ALICHINIO and don't know who and what they are. Just sleep or play at the station. Or just go to Facebook and add your crush. When you come home at night from school or work, avoid dark places especially if you see a suspicious person, especially if they are handsome. There is a right time for flirty
Don't even stop by the Ministop to buy a Cornetto, just let it open. And above all, don't ask for anything from someone you don't know. What if he can bring back your dead Poodle?
Everything has a price. Don't imitate my stupidity.
This is a warning! Love your precious life before somebody takes it from you, the way it almost did to me. Be curious about the right way or else there'll be hell to pay.
Peewee's PoV
"Hey, De Leon! Hurry up and clean up there. You're a bitch!" Rose Marie shouted loudly in my ear.
Putek! He still likes to scream because he just stands there and does nothing. Eh, if he helps me. I was about to pass and then he was just shouting.
"Here it is," I said. Alas! If only she wasn't the Principal's daughter, I would have showered her with this weight of soap, when she got rid of her illusion that she was a princess and that she would support me.
I stood up and stretched. My back bones are on strike.
"Oh what, are you done? Take it easy." Rose Marie said with a smile. Huh! Am I still slow? Hello, am I Wonder Woman?
"It's over, your majesty." The nose and chest are magnificently retouched like a volcano that will explode anytime.
"You're done, don't leave," he shouted again.
The truth is, was this girl conceived in a boombox or something? It's so loud, when you have a microphone in your mouth.
We are here now in the principal's office. RM made me clean the office because his mommy told him to. Huh! If I don't already know, she just met a man here and then they will do wonders that are rated SPG. It's always like that. Woman, very flirtatious.
Whenever the Principal has a district meeting, RM brings his boys to his office. Of course, that's just a secret, because the Principal will definitely go bald if he finds out what he's been doing.
My role in the life of Rose Marie (RM) is to be her assistant. Well, kind of like that. In order to study, I got a scholarship here at Grand Valley Academy and because your servant is not very intelligent, I naturally failed the exam. Good thing the Principal is kind, he agreed to let me be a scholar in return to be a student assistant at this school. Helper, aid, things like that.
My help is all-around here. Janitress, library staff, dishwasher in the Cafeteria, ball catcher in the gym, weed puller in the Square and of course RM's assistant. That's all. I even beat Darna. It's a shame about the scholarship. Even though GVA is a wealthy school, the quality of education is still high. So, be patient. RM is harmless, until that crater is torn apart.
I entered C.R. when I heard someone came to the office and spoke to Rose Marie. As usual, man. I'm just tired. I hung up the towel and washed my hands. Then, my stomach hurt so I also defecated.
De joke lang.
My stomach hurt because the tenants were on strike in my intestines. They are asking for help from the government. They said they were hungry. Besides, I just remembered, I haven't even had breakfast yet.
I came out of c.r. to say goodbye to Rose but I almost passed out not because of hunger but because of the horrible scene that I witnessed.
Rose was sitting at the table with her legs hanging from the man with his back turned. Her skirt is also loose so I can see the soul. The man ran here who was obviously kissing Rose's neck while his hands rested on the tall woman's future.
My legs automatically stiffened and I felt like someone kicked me to Pluto.
Here they go! Can't even wait to get out first. I don't know what to do. Whether to run or watch the live porn scene in front of me. My bag is on the table and I can't leave it. I'm hungry and there's my wallet.
My brain returned to its senses when I remembered that I was hungry. I took a deep breath and approached the two who were drowning.
"Ahem! Ahem!" I pretend to notice. "Excuse me, just an excuse."
The man stopped kissing and gradually raised his gaze towards me. It was like he only noticed me then. After all, what am I compared to Rose Marie's huge breasts?
"Take it off first. I'll just get the bag over there on the side." I didn't realize that I was completely surprised when I saw the man's face. I also looked at Rose whose face was red, I'm not sure if it was because of embarrassment or excitement.
"Go ahead," I said. And seemed to ignore the back of the man who was still looking at me with one eyebrow raised. I took the bag and hurriedly put it on my back before walking towards the door.
"Make sure to lock the door."
I almost tripped when I heard the man's smooth voice when he spoke. The timbre of his voice is beautiful. Manly. It's addicting. Oh milk! What am I saying? It's a fool to fall in love with a boladass man like him.
I just turned the door lock and went out. No looking around. I didn't even close the door, I just left it open.
"Hey! I told you to lock the blah blah blah blah...."
The man was shouting but I didn't understand because I ran away.
You can order me to do anything, but if it's in Kalandian, I'm sorry. I'm out of there.
I was out of breath before reaching the Cafeteria. Is it far from the office, three buildings apart?
I saw my friend Aila eating alone at table 35. I ordered food before approaching her.
"Oi! How is Ms. Japeyk's great assistant? Why do you look like that? You look like a warrior from the Hundred Years War. Haggardness."
Girl, there's no excuse. "It's out of debt! I can eat first."
Aila just winked, "Op kors naman. Alright, eat your brunch first, friend."
Aila was quiet while I was eating. It's only twelve-thirty and because our History teacher is absent, we still have one and a half hours to talk. I thought about telling him what happened at the office.
"Oi, friend." I love Aila.
"Mmmm."
"Do you remember the man who was always with my Bebe-- is that Elix's? The one who looks snotty and is always absent?"
For the gossips, Elix is my all-time crush here at school. Handsome and rich. It's just grumpy.
Aila frowned slightly as if thinking. "Looks like a senglot? With Elix? Mmmm.. That grumpy guy doesn't have anyone else with him except what...."
"That's it! That's it! The one that looks like an addict. What.... Who is that again?"
Pest! I don't remember his name. Just because I'm not interested, I don't remember. Why care, right?
Aila's nose lengthened when she heard what I said.
"Are you blind or do you just have blurry eyes?! Elm, he looks like an addict?!! Gosh! I wish I'd just become a drug addict. If an addict is that hot! It's no small thing that his appeal is more overflowing than You're already a pale crush on Elix, no!"
"Just calm down, okay? I won't fight," I told Aila who was scolding her. "So... His name is Elm," I mean by Rose's sarcastic man.
"Yes! His name is Elm, although I heard that is not his real name. Wait... why did you ask that? Maybe you already have a crush on him, right?"
I didn't have time to swallow the hot dog I was biting into. Holy Trinity!
After I saw the scene of that poor Elm earlier, no more?! I'm terrified.
"It's Aila! It's crazy to have a crush there."
"So I'm crazy, right?" Aila said with a frown.
"It's been a while," I answered with a smile. "Anyway, that's why I'm asking you because..." And I told him about the incident earlier in the Principal's office.
"Oh my! That's not new," Aila said shaking her head after I told her story. "Poor Ms. Japeyk."
"Huh! Why?"
"Well, tomorrow Elm won't know him anymore. That's the way that man is, he changes women faster than clothes."
"Like that?" It's so bad, it's like I suddenly felt pity for Rose.
"That's right. When it comes to women, Elm is pure evil. He's even worse than his grumpy best friend. Your crush Elix will seem really nice, because Elix just doesn't care. But Elm will put the girl on top of the world, then drop her."
"If he's like that, why are so many women still hitting on him?"
"Well, he's handsome, he's still boladas, as long as he shapes them, he's gone! The girls are already flying to heaven," Aila said with a laugh.
Hmmm. Having said that, I just saw the man for the first time, he doesn't seem like he's going to do anything sensible. Thank you! Poor Rose Marie, it looks like she's dead in Elm. It's up to him. That's his karma for his stupidity.
"Tsk! Let's just forget about those," I said to Aila while standing up from sitting. "Let's just go to the library. I'm just going to research something."
"They say there will be research, you're just waiting for your anemic crush to hang out."
The noise is a woman. I? Looking forward to Elix my dear? Incapable. I'm not flirtatious. I know the boundary of heaven and earth. Elix is heaven, I am 5000 feet under the earth.
Right now, my only goal in life is to finish without my mother always drooling over me.
"Is it possible, I'm not that close to Elix, Aila. Besides, I heard he's absent again."
"Wow, updated. He, come on."
Peewee's PoV
The following days were still normal. My school route is still the same. Help here, help there, help everywhere. Assist in the library, pull weeds, wash plates in the cafeteria, pray for Rose Marie. Just like that, nothing new.
When you have a chance, take a peek at Elix's classroom too - my dear. Sometimes I see him sleeping, sometimes he's just quiet. Often, nothing. I don't know where and why. Maybe with his evening boladas.
Speaking of Mr. Boladas a.k.a. 'Elm' is still a playboy. After he flirted with Rose Marie, he ignored her. The witch is going crazy because Elm is no longer interested in her.
"It's like you don't know that, that's all the girls wear for that. Change three times a day. Psh," I whispered to Rose.
He just raised an eyebrow at me.
"Don't talk as if you knew him! What do you know? Are you close!?"
I just kept quiet because Rose Marie was obviously bitter.
How can we be close when it's so bad? That *toot* part was the only part he saw me for the first time. And he was probably traumatized by my appearance.
Where else can you see a woman with a haircut like a man?
Aila used to call me 'Pogi'. They say I look like a Korean boy, but I still act like a man, only because I'm wearing a skirt. And that Elm was probably laughing at me because of my appearance. Oh well, can I please him.
-------
In the afternoon, it suddenly rained heavily. I'm not ready yet so I don't have an umbrella. I don't know if there is a typhoon because I don't usually watch the news. Aila, who always has an umbrella, is absent because of the flu.
It's dismissal but it looks like the rain has no intention of letting up. Many of the students have already returned home. I just stood here in the entrance hall watching the rain fall. It's already dark so I'm a little nervous. The maintenance people have probably gone home. The lights are already off. The pole outside is my only light.
Another hour passed and the rain really didn't stop. The sky was still angry because of the force of thunder and lightning.
Go away! Is heaven broken-hearted? Why is he crying so loudly? And still register for unlimited. Bad trip with the amount of mosquitoes, my blood will soon run out here. Worse Day.
Go ahead, Peewee. Just wait, eventually that will stop. Just think about it later when you get home, you have a hot champorado---
"Boo!!"
"Champoradoooo~!!!"
I was surprised when someone next to me suddenly spoke so I screamed. My heart felt like it fell on the concrete in so much shock. And I almost ran in the rain, luckily I didn't. I would have looked stupid.
I was ready to drool over the shocked man but I saw that it was unlikely to happen because he was sitting down. He is standing and laughing! I was stunned when I met him.
"Whahahaha!! God, that was so funny! Can you do that again? That champorado in a high pitch was hilariously perfect! Whahahahaha!"
The Playboy was in front of me. Right! It's Elm. And he was very happy like a child while lying down and holding his stomach. Wait wait! I'm the one he's laughing at.
All the irritation in my body came back when I remembered what he did to startle me.
I frowned and approached him to confront him. Wrong move case.
It's really beautiful up close.
With the lightning still flashing above, it helps me to see that this guy was truly strikingly handsome! Though he looks weird under the red umbrella, it suits him better---
Just wait. Why do I constantly praise this walking evil? And it's still English..? Blood is raining in my mind.
I approached him again and pretended to be in awe of his handsomeness. *Elix is what I want.
He stopped laughing and looked at me from head to toe with a weird expression. I'm a little lost.
"Why did you do that?"
"I did what?"
It's still good.
"The shock like that?"
"Coz it's funny."
There is no way.
"What if I had a heart attack?"
"You have a heart attack?" Elm raised an eyebrow slightly.
"Nothing. But---"
"No harm done, then."
Inconsiderate bastard!!
"Besides, kanina pa ako dito. Almost half an hour, and you're not even looking at me."
Huh? He's been here half an hour? Whew. Why didn't I even notice him?
Elm walked over to the rain and stuck a childlike hand into it as he twirled the red umbrella over his shoulder.
He looked very serene and peaceful. I never thought that I would have the chance to stare at him this close. I prefer to look at Elix, but it's okay, Elm is fine. I wonder if I'll still be choosy?
They said this guy rarely goes to school. Absent and always disappearing from class. Still lazy. This Elm is only hardworking for women.
When I used to, he looked like an addict, because his hair was quite long and always messy. But Aila is right, that messy hair adds sex appeal. His eyes are gray like Elix. Maybe they have the same European blood. If Elix is cold handsome, this one is hot magma from head to toe. With those equiline nose and full lips, I can accept why the woman would kill herself for him.
*But Elix is still my crush right?
Elm is still working hard in the rain. He also looked up at the sky as if waiting for a meteor to pass. And I, on the other hand, silently stared at him. I know we look like engots.
A woman who looks like she's been struck by lightning while being swatted by a mosquito, and a handsome man who looks like he's been hit in the head while surrounded by a spinning red umbrella.
"Strange," I heard Elm say. And that's when I noticed that he was looking at me.
"What's strange?" I asked every time.
My chest suddenly heaved for an inexplicable reason. Maybe that's because something seemed to flash in Elm's eyes as he looked into my eyes. It's like a glint of danger. Like the eyes of a lion or a tiger when they find their prey. Terrible.
I was about to get scared but Elm smiled again. And this time, I feel that his smile is real. Then look up at the sky again.
It seems that my suspicion was correct that the man's head was hit really big.
"You're not like the others."
Huh? Ano daw? I'm not like the others daw.
"Of course! I'm exotic. My mother's only child. Pity the world if there were many like me."
"Hahahaha! Of course, make sense!"
See if you can laugh it off.
Wait, it looks like he doesn't remember me from the other incident. Good.
"You're not normal."
"What?!"
Doesn't that mean abnormal? animal That was a compliment to me.
Elm slowly folded the umbrella he was holding before looking at him.
"At first I thought you're a guy... But it'll be weird for a guy to wear a girl's uniform so..."
Having said that, my look is an issue here.
" And another... some girls acted like they had been possessed whenever they saw me," he said curtly. "Some go wild and lunatic. And there you go, nakatayo ka lang. Quiet. You're not even screaming. And you didn't even seem to know me. That's why i found it very strange."
Oh That's it. In other words, I didn't fall to my knees when I saw him. So he wondered. Wow? Maybe that's for the record.
"I'm sorry? But I only look at Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt." And of course Elix.
"Well, as I know.. Girls like you always had a very poor standard. Shame."
"Wow---" I was going to give him a flying kick but suddenly a fancy car came and parked in front of us so I couldn't continue.
wow A glossy silver Dodge Viper! Only in other countries there is a net. What is he doing here?
"Oh. My pick-up is here," said Elm looking at the figure that got out of the fancy car. "Hey man! How was your day?"
"Shut up and just get your big ass in here!" the figure shouted angrily at Elm who just laughed.
I almost passed out when I saw that figure was Elix. Elm frowned and seemed annoyed, but it was ok. My Ice Prince is still handsome. Whaaaah!
Terrible! I can get drunk now. I have seen him, and take note, he is close to me. What if he looks like a bad trip, he's still handsome. My Elix!
Dear heavens, thank you very much for this opportunity! Take my life now. I can peacefully---
*pok*
"Ouch!"
Elm hit me on the head with his umbrella. He raised an eyebrow while looking at me with a look-at-me.
"Why are you beating yourself up?" Buset, it just hurts. Elix-my-dear was still looking.
"Because you're a retard," he answered innocently. "I've been calling you for a while now, you're not paying attention to me. You're just dumbfounded like an idiot."
"Aba't--"
"Here. Take this," Elm handed me his red umbrella.
"What am I going to do here?"
"Slap your head!"
Jerk.
I just frowned. A man like him is useless to talk to.
"It's a pity. You look like a rag there. You might not be able to go home. So better use it, just come back next time. Or even if you don't, just throw it in the trash."
"Damn Salem!! Are you or are you not---"
"Coming Elix!" Elm immediately cut off Elix's call. "Why do you get hot every time it rains? You beat the girl who has an everyday period. Hahahaha!"
"Bastard," Elix got into the car annoyed. Started the engine and drove away.
Whoa!
He left.
Elm and I were both stunned, gaping and looking at the car driving away. Elm also didn't expect that his girlfriend would leave him. Maybe Elix is really bad at being bored.
"Wow," Elm chuckled. "He's really mad."
"Yeah. And he just left you."
Elm looked at me and I was a little surprised because he was smiling like crazy. "Nyeh! What are you smiling about?"
"Nothing. I guess I have no choice but to run. I can still catch up with him."
Run?
Running?
But?
He?
I think that one is really crazy. How will he reach those four wheels, he only has two legs?
"You said, if you can."
"You'll never know," Elm said proudly as he took off his uniform.
"HI!"
I was going to return his umbrella so that he could use something, but there was a strong flash of lightning that made me close my eyes in fear.
When I woke up, he was gone. Not a trace or shadow, nothing. Even a running figure in the rain is nothing. Where did he go? Why did he disappear so fast?
There was no sign that Elm had been here ten seconds ago, except for the red umbrella in my hand and Elm's perfume that had been left in the air.
Brrr! The truth? Is he the Flash?
