Lahat ng Kabanata ng At My 100th Life Before 18: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 9

"Celene Monte, 14," I introduced myself. My gaze went to the whole class that were not even paying attention to me and shrugged my shoulders. I turned my head to the teacher whose name I didn't bother to remember and asked if I could go back to my seat. She gave me a quick nod and called the next student. I went back to my seat in the front row on the right side of the classroom. The first day of school really sucks. No matter how many lifetimes I was already reborn, this is one of the things I hated. Though I was lucky to get reborn in a modern world just like I hoped for. But this time I was not an orphan like the 99th life. My parents urged me to go to school even though I didn't want it. "You're already in the second year of your high school life! And you are still like that! Just better use your energy to make friends rather than being cooped up in the house and keep whining on not going outside." I remembered how mom scolded me when I tried to reason that I didn't want to go

"Join my band, Celene."   Her eyes sparkled with glee as she awaited my answer.   Sigh. 'What a way to start my day.'   I looked straight into her dark eyes. "Ms.  Monica. Whatever is on your mind.

Even though it's July, the fire trees are still blooming. She isn't connected by blood or anything. But we simply referred to her as an aunt. She is our next-door neighbor who lives with us since my parents are still young adults. So our family is already quite close with her. "Good day, aunt!" Clara was thrilled 

'"Sister! Wake up!"   "I don't want to!"    "Why do you always make things difficult for me?"   "Because mom invites those people in dinner!"   "Celestine Monte! Wake up!"    My body stood up like it was being controlled by someone. My back was straight like those military shoulders. 'Mom called me in my full name. Hah. I'm sure in trouble.   "Why are you always like this in school mornings?" Mom said as she leaned on the door of my room, her arms crossed.    "Carla, go eat your breakfast now. I'll deal with your sister now."   "Alright! Good luck Celene!" Carla said as she dashed out of the room.   I sat back on my bed as mom moved closer to me. "Why do you hate so much that I invited them for dinner yesterday."   "Because I don't like them," I replied with hon
