Avoiding The Mafia (COMPLETED)

Chapter 8

I woke up super late. Tinignan ko ang orasan sa gilid ng kama ko at nakitang eleven na ng umaga. 

Well, I can't blame myself, I need all the sleep I can get from my hectic schedule every day.

Wala akong duty ngayon kaya sinulit ko ang tulog ko, the reason why late na akong gumising. 

I crawled out of my bed and went to the bathroom to do my usual morning routine.

Paglabas ko, narinig kong tumunog ang cellphone ko. I grabbed it not bothering to dress first. 

[Morning!.. I know you don't have duty today, but don't forget to bring the book please.... Love you!]

I sighed.. 

It's my colleague. She wanted to borrow some of my books and I promised I'll bring the book to her. But god! I didn't expect she needed it now, when I'm not on duty! 

I opened my closet and saw the dresses that I haven't use yet. 

Right! These dresses remind me of my six hundred thousand. It's not that I'm still poor, but god! Six hundred thousand for just shopping was just a waste of money. 

I picked the red dress that has sleeves above the elbow with a length below the knees. It's perfect, wala masyadong skin na nakikita. 

I should not bother applying light makeup but I did. I curled my long black hair, and wore some of my jewelries that mom gave as her birthday present. Tinignan ko ang kabuuan ko sa mirror and I look like my twin sister. 

God! What do you expect! 

But mind you, when I say my twin sister, it means gorgeous, sophisticated rich kid... Cause that's what she is.

Saktong pagkatapos kong mag ayos ay kumalam ang sikmura ko. 

Agad akong bumaba at nagmadaling pumunta sa kusina. May nakahain ng pagkain sa mesa pagdating ko. Not bothering kung para kanino ang pagkain ay agad ko itong kinain. 

Since it's almost twelve in the morning, I decided na ito na rin ang panglunch ko. Well, brunch is not unusual for me. Palagi ito ang routine ko kapag early si mom sa trabaho.

Pagkatapos kong kumain ay agad kong kinuha ang susi ko at ng book na idi-deliver ko sa hospital when I got stop by a laud yell.

"Wait!" Cerene creamed to the top of her lungs. She's upstairs and nasa pituan na ako palabas.

She immediately run downstair with her four inches heels

Napangiwi ako. Goodness! Who run with those heels! 

Agad niya akong hinila sa kitchen pagkaharap niya sakin.

"Wait for me, sasabay na ako sayo," she said still dragging me with her.

"Ano? Asan ba ang kotse mo?" 

Binitawan din ako pagkarating namin sa kitchen. "Nasiraan, wala na akong time para ipaayos pa," She said dramatically but then natigilan siya ng nasa tapat na kami ng dining table.

"Where's my food?" tanong nito. Her left brows started to lift up. 

Hindi na ako nagsalita. I cocked my head away at kunwaring nagbubuklat ng libro. She stepped in front of me kaya napataas ako ng tingin dito. She gave me an I-know-you-ate-my-food look.

Nangunot ang noo ko. "What? Wala akong alam sa sinasabi mo. Why would I eat your food?" 

She snorted. "Cause you're starving and you're the only one around. Umalis si mom kaninang seven and I prepared my lunch around ten AM, which tells me you're the culprit my dear sister," she concluded with her hands on her hips.
