"Sino sa palagay mo, baby girl?"

"Shit!" I shouted and agad akong bumangon sa kama ko at agad na tinapon ang pillow ko sa floor. I pulled my own hair to release the annoyance that I feel.

"That Trevor," I said pa and shook my head. After he asked me that ay iniwan ko na siya. I didn't know how to respond because my mind went blank, nakakainis. I look stupid tuloy.

I scratched my head and humiga again and covered my face with a pillow since I can't sleep because of him na naman. Tsk, nakaka annoy talaga siya. I don't understand myself kung bakit ganito ako, I don't understand din kung bakit nagagalit ako kay Trevor tsk. I am so fucked up.

"Good morning, Miss," Elvis greeted me when he saw me going down the stairs. Hindi ko siya pinansin because first of all I don't have a good morning.

I sat lazily on near the dining table. Sumubsob lang ako sa table kasi I don't feel well talaga maybe because I didn't slept well last night because of that Trevor flirt.

"Oat meal lang po ulit, Miss?" Our cook asked me. I immediately shook my head. I remember Trevor made oat meal for me kaya ayoko na ng oat meal. "Gusto niyo po ba ng gatas?"

"That'll do," sagot ko naman and sighed. I felt so tired.

"Miss, ayos lang po ba kayo? Mukhang hindi po kayo nakatulog ng maayos ah," Elvis said naman and placed a cup of milk in front of me. Is it too obvious ba?

"Sira po ba ang aircon sa kwarto niyo, Miss? Gusto niyo po ba na ipaayos ko?" He asked consecutively but I didn't respond.

"Sige," I said naman and took a sip of my milk. Maybe mahina nga lang 'yung aircon kaya hindi ako nakakatulog ng maayos hindi si Trevor ang dahilan. Tumango ako. I am right, it wasn't because of him. Hindi ko naman siya pagpupuyatan 'no tsk.

After I drank my milk ay umalis na rin ako sa kitchen. Lumabas ako ng house kasi I saw Elvis na nagpunta sa garden. Nakita ko siya na nagcucultivate ng plants so I walked near him.

"Ay, Miss baka po marumihan kayo rito," he said before stepping back habang hawak 'yung maliit na shovel para I won't be dirty. "Sige na po, Miss. Pumasok na po kayo at mainit na," he said pa.

I sighed. "Did you water the plants na?" I asked him. I'm bored kaya I want to make myself busy and also ayoko na maalala si Trevor and his flirty lines. "I'll water the plants," sabi ko pa and flipped my hair and Elvis seemed so shock.

"What?" I asked him raising a brow.

"Wala po, kukunin ko na po 'yung hose," sabi niya naman and ran away na. He went back na may dalang hose. "Sigurado po ba kayo, Miss?"
