Khan smirks. "Who says na mabaho ako?"
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tbYBVWQM8
I glance at him. "Sino ba? Siguro si Japet."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8kw6Z3WXO
Tumawa naman siya nang bahagya. Napatitig tuloy ako sa kaniya. He's like a brother to me yet the way he stares at me right now is kind of a bit unusual. Nang napansin ko ang pag-iwas niya ay umiwas na rin ako. Sakto rin naman ang pagdating ng dalawa kong kaibigan. I have my sistie but she is not around for some reason. Kaya sumama na lang ako sa kanila. But even if she were here, I know hindi niya rin magugusstuhan ang vibes ng mga ito.

"Rianne, dude..." hinihingal na sinabi ni Klink, habang nasa gilid naman niya si Japet.

Khan brows meet.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNinSd99uHn
"Si Neil..." he can't even say it straight in the eye.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBiiMWWBZVS
"Bakit? Ano ba'ng nangyari?" Khan's voice hefts.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUHcrtpS1U
Nagkatinginan ang dalawa. Napatingin na lang din ako kay Khan.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMqWvbgq5i
Neil is having a serious injury dahil sa back-lift niya. I cross my arms over my chest, glaring at my brother who gave me nothing but problem.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNNXL0cyR7
"Sis..." he starts.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpK0lJOQzU
I glance at Khan who is mouthing Japet and Klink before he snakes his hands over their shoulders. I follow them in my vision as I swing back my gaze at my brother, who is now smirking, for, maybe some reason. I restrain to look at the wall so our sight would not meet. Damn!
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Dkjhb1aHy
"You like?" He hands me a bottle of water.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuphyMuyrC
I shake my head.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtkfOx71Am
He leans against the wall. "Dati... hindi pa ganito 'to."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVu692dFwyH
I flash a sight at him. "What do you mean?"
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4a4jBZxyoj
Linagok niya ang tubig. Habang ibinalik ko naman ang paningin sa harapan. He's right, hindi na nga ito kagaya nang dati. Malaking improvement at renovation na ang nagawa rito panigurado.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgqxasqphA
He breathes. "Kung hindi lang sana binenta ni daddy to..."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXlVCSlld1
I look at him over my shoulder. "Daddy has a reason."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqFWgmfNK8
He inhales. "Whatever his reason is... I don't care."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklLaA21aEB
I take a deep breath.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLW48kZnt3f
Nang maggabi ay napagdesisyunan ko nang tumuloy muna roon. My brother needs me. I weigh the glass of water in my hand when my phone ring. I glance at the caller. I take a sip and put it back on the side near my phone. I nibble my lips as I swipe the icon sideways.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPFxUVAREK
"Hello?" I begin.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJ8CYAzDSF
"Hey! Um, did you eat your meal already?" Khan asks in mid-tone.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFNtIAsaFs
"Yep," I reply.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTePSdd7Ex
"C-cool! Err, I just want to ask you something," he retorts.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiBDZP8lQQ
Ano na naman kaya ang kailangan nito? I remember he was once asked me to go with him for out of town trip. Akalain mo ba naman, nag-aya pero bukas na ang finals namin. Ibang nilalang.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnp3KaV2pA
"Ano na naman 'yan?"
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEws6vIj7T1
"Gustow kow somama ka sa aken."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1PZo395Tw
At hindi ko na nga napiligang matawa sa accent ng mokong. Hindi naman sa kinukutya ko ang accent niya, pero ang cute lang kasi. Sino ba namang hindi ma kyu-kyutan 'pag narinig mo ang gano'ng accent.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAD3rDgBNqM
Lalo na ang boses niya. Umiling ako.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESBpJe5L40
"Saan?"
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0JH435WbP
"To my grandmother's Casa."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWcIW04xqa
'Ayun! Bumigay rin.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfW7bhbgwsK
I fold my hand creating an 'L' shape. Pinakinggan ko lang siya hanggang sa sinabi rin niya ang lokasyon ng Casa.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnPfgyv4D9
"Okay, where?"
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnuuvTZohH
"Bohol? I'm not familiar with the place."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEb6bxSyCC4
I raise my eyebrow. "Okay... I'm going."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OHu5GBNRd
"Really?" his voice hoarses.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPv3bBai49
"Yep!"
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavQAk5QY3a
"Thanks. Good night."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwThY1JURao
I smile as I hang up the call. A simple good night from a friend is, like, everything.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1izEAY9FQ
Later that day, I am now walking in Arellano University to see my friend. I felt gross with my outfit—skinny jeans and a waistline shirt. Kung nagpaparamdam lang sana ang dalaginding, I won't visit here. I raises my chin. As I step into the library, I saw her talking with a guy. I paused while my blood boils for a second. The audacity of this woman is celestial.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVi1PAhMI5
I purse my lips as I march my feet onto her direction. Nang makita niya ako, ay bigla niyang itinulak 'yong lalaki. Ang kapal talaga ng babaeng ito.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVbGiu2vTm
"Later..."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡct14aEC2pA
"Akala ko ba no time for boys?"
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDUbXyhxNM
She looks at me. I raise an eyebrow.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cfr9uNOvO
"Uh... eh..." she can't form a word.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlgXGP9T9o
I shove my bag on the table. Saglit na napatingin ang mga tao roon. I glance at them before I saddle on the chair.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqfbQ92M4a
"How's your exam?" my voice is authoritative.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PVAgA3kqS
She raw-smile. "Ran... um—"
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTzEEcDzkR
"See? Inuna mo pa ang landi kaysa mag-aral," I lecture, glaring her. "Rox, I know you're adult already. Pero sana, pahalagaan mo naman ang pag-aaral mo."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwASTr1ID5d
She sighs. "Oo na, I'm sorry..."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWVVH8OtpT
I smirk. "Sige na nga. Kahit kailan dinadaan mo talaga ako sa charms mo."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImZGCf7EFz
She pouts, smirking.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzB3PG4Wnp
"Malakas ako sa 'yo, e."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAekUIJp23K
I roll my eyes.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcP7DyW4rkk
We cross the College of business hanggang sa 'di kalaunan ay nakarating na rin kami sa cafeteria. I don't know, but I have this feeling na parang may sumusunod sa amin. Or I am just hallucinating. Never mind.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFjeG9wObz
"What do you like to drink?" She snakes her arm over my shoulder.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcnYQd01as
"Guava juice," I reply, browsing through my phone.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF46TTchcDC
Pero hindi pa man ako naka scroll down ay may biglang nag-message sa akin.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGDHl817ZG
"Hi, miss beutiful."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkudEKi1Tos
My brows meet. I scroll down to see more.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXg9xpXhQzZ
"Sama ka sa akin. I like the way you moves."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GqthyFvR1
Moved 'yon. Tanga. Pero teka, bakit may contact itong kung sino mang anak ng kurimaw na ito sa akin? I dart my sight at Roxianne. She gives me a perplexing look.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjXZWKstTj
My eyes dwindle.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWzooAQTHU
"What?" She looks away.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVhPLXIgFe
The audacity!
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVhQV7NLbE
"How dare you!" I exclaim.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDxYtIHIuT
She smirks. "What?"
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlF9yhdcif
I shake my head in disbelief. "I can't believe you can do this to me." "At least 'di ba, may connection ulit kayo—"
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHhKK3x4VL
I roll my eyes. "Ugh! That won't happen again."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHu2YG3qJ6D
She snickers. The nerve!
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBLoDFUi6f
Kinalaunan, dumating din ang orders namin. Ngumiti pa sa akin ang lalaking crew. I just ignore him.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUYXz4kyMv
"Psst!" pagtawag ni Roxianne sa akin.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrjy7islPb
I didn't bother to approach.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLunf9tFKY
"'No ba 'yan! Ito naman... hindi naman pupunta rito 'yon."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuStIOCtbI
She smirks. I roll my eyes.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zbcebevRY
"Whatever."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡder9Kbnw1u
I put my phone on the side when someone calls us. Pamilyar ang boses na iyon. Hindi ako puwedeng magkamali. It was him.
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39Xn7CwxWH
"Hey, girls."
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bKh0kpQpr
I close my eyes as the voice become audible. The audacity!
