| SOS from the Back Row
by 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒓𝒅𝒖𝒔𝒕 𝒓𝒊

Seat No. 43.
Near the broken fan.
The corner where the light doesn’t quite reach.

They always start with,
"Good morning, class!"
but never say my name.

I don’t blame them.
I haven’t raised my hand since June.

The worksheet in front of me says:
"𝘓𝘪𝘴𝘵 𝘧𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶’𝘳𝘦 𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘧𝘶𝘭 𝘧𝘰𝘳."
I write:
1. Sky.
2. Silence.
3. Kung may sud-an kami kag indi kan-on lang.
4. Kung makapuli na si Mama kag ubos iya mga baligya.
5. Nagbugtaw ko kaina sang aga.

I kept my pen away,
one with its ends bitten off.
It's a habit I had developed.
I handed my paper back to the teacher.

My notebook is mostly drawings.
A house with a roof that doesn’t leak.
A family eating dinner 𝘵𝘰𝘨𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳.
A boy holding a medal.

Sometimes the lesson sounds like wind.
It blows past me.
I try to catch the words, but they keep flying forward.

My heart drops every time they say, “Volunteers?”
I stare at my shoes,
hoping they’ll have an answer
because I don't.

I haven't eaten today.
Again.
But I smile when I say "present."
It's the only thing I seem to get right.

My uniform's too tight now.
I grew. The fabric didn’t.
But it's okay.
I'm getting really good at pretending I'm comfortable.

We were asked to write an essay:
"𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄 𝘂𝗽?"

I wanted to write:
"𝘖𝘶𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦."
But I wrote:
"Teacher."

Because they like that answer.
Because she looks tired,
and 𝘮𝘢𝘺𝘣𝘦 𝘐 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘥𝘢𝘺.

Because maybe if I become her,
someone will sit in the back and still feel seen.
And I'll say, "Good morning!" everytime.
And I'll mean it.
