OS #1: Chain Of Restrictions

1st Restriction

Eleven

It's the first day of my senior year of high school. Tiningnan ko ang orasan na nakalagay sa kanang bahagi ng higaan ko, 5:43 am. So early, huh.

I went to the bathroom and took a bath, after that I turned right and headed to the door for my walk-in closet. Since it's the first day, I still don't have my uniform so anything but not informal will do.

I choose a white striped high neck top, high waisted black jeans and a black sneakers. I put on some light make-up, that simply defines my australian features, thick but shaped eyebrows, high nose, blue-grey eyes, natural long eyelashes, high cheekbones and plump lips. I then brushed my long brown hair with dark highlights, which reached below my elbows. I then got my bag and went down for breakfast.

"Hi sweetie, Morning. Maaga ka ngayon ah." Mom greeted me when she saw me. She's preparing the utensils.

"Morning too, Mom. Maaga ako kasi it's the first day." I went to her and gave her a kiss on her cheeks.

Mom is a surgeon but she still proritize our family even with her busy schedule. She is in demand because of how great she is in doing her operations.

Tumawa siya sa sinabi ko. "So maaga ka lang gigising kung may klase ka, ganon?" Mom's silly reply while still preparing breakfast.

"Morning Dana, sweetheart. Nasaan ang kuya mo?" I went to Dad who was busy as always reading the newspaper, and kissed his right cheek and sat down on my chair on his right side. Dad owns the Salvernon Hospitals, located in various places of Cebu.

"Morning too, Dad. Baka nasa taas? I didn't check on him though." I giggled as dad looked straight on me.

Napailing ako bago itinaas ang dalawang kamay, sumusuko. "Okay okay, pupuntahan ko na po." I laughingly said.

Tumayo ako at pumanhik pabalik sa itaas. Tinungo ko ang kanyang kwarto na may nakalagay pang signage sa labas na 'Cannot be Disturb'.

How can he placed it in an upside down position? At anong akala niya sa amin, outsiders? I scoffed at his dumbness.

Kumatok ako pagkatapos ay binuksan ko ang pinto. I saw him lying on his bed face-on, only wearing his boxers, I even heard him snoring.

Ala-sais na tulog pa rin 'toh?

"Kuya, gising na." I shaked him, gumalaw naman siya pero para lang humarap sa kabilang banda, where his masculine back is now what I'm facing.

Fowta, ayaw.

"Kuya! Gising na sabi!" Umungol lang ito. Naiinis na kinuha ko ang unan na nakalagay sa gilid niya 'tas walang pagdadalawang isip na malakas kong inihampas sa kanyang mukha. Agad itong napabangon.

There. Hampas lang pala ang kulang.

"What the f-" Hindi niya natapos nung makita niya ko sa tabi niya na nakahawak sa unan na pinanghampas ko sa mukha niya. Sabog pa yata ang utak nito sa hampas ko, tulala pa kasi ang kulay abo nitong mga mata.

Kuya has these European features, gray eyes, thick eyebrows, very sharp nose where if he wears glasses it definitely defines them, full and symmetrical lips, moreno skin, strong jawline, dark brown hair, and he has this teen boyish body may visible abs naman siya.

Overall, he has an attractive face.

"Did you just swear at me?" Nakataas ang kilay at nakalagay sa bewang ang kanang kamay na tanong ko sa kanya. He has the nerve to curse at me? Galing niya ah siya pa ginising, siya pa may ganang mag mura? Malapit na kaming malate, ayaw niya pang bumangon?!

Nilingon niya ako, mga abong mata ay naglakbay sa aking suot kong damit pataas sa aking mukha. Iniisip ko kung may dumi ba ako sa mukha ng bigla niya akong hinila at pinahiga sa kama, pumaibabaw sa akin. Naiinis na hinila ko ang kanyang buhok. Anong oras na, may gana pa talaga siyang magbiro.

"I didn't, though almost." He said in his morning voice. Nalusaw ang inis sa akin. Naramdaman kong uminit ang aking mukha ng marinig ang malalim niyang boses.

Why am I feeling like this?

"But Leigh! Why did you hit my face so hard? Masakit 'yon ah!" Umalis siya sa pagkakaibabaw sa akin at umupo sa gilid ng kama. Masama niya akong tiningnan na nanatiling nakahiga pa rin. Hinimas niya ang parte ng mukha niya na nahampas.

Para naman akong natauhan. Dali-dali akong bumangon at tumayo. "Ayaw mong bumangon k-kaya 'yan." Nagpapanic kong saad. Nagbibiro lang naman siya pero bakit iba ang nararamdaman ko? I find this very awkward.

Napatingin ako sa kanya ng binigyan niya ako ng isang nakakalokong ngisi. "Bihis na Kuya m-malelate na tayo, ala sais i-medya na oh. Maliligo ka pa!" Galit-galitan kong saad habang mainit pa rin ang mukha. Tumayo naman 'to pero ang bagal naman kumilos! Nang-iinis ba'to?

"Ano ba, Kuya. Bilisan mo! Pag tayo na late lagot ka sa'kin! Sa baba muna ako, bilisan mo 10 minutes lang dapat tapos ka na." He's back vibrated when he lets out a laugh as I pushed him inside his CR. Dinig pa rin ang kanyang tawa, lumabas ako sa kanyang kwarto.

Ka lalaking tao ke bagal-bagal kumilos!

Pagkapasok ko ng Dining Area nagsilingunan si Dad at Mom. "Oh, what happened? I heard the commotion." Dad commented as soon as I sat down on my chair. Mom's sitting right in front me who's eating and listening.

Kinuha ko ang kutsara at inabot ang lutong bacon. Nilagay ko ito sa plato. Kukuha na sana ako ng kanin ng si Dad na mismo ang naglagay sa aking plato. "As always, Kuya and his tantrums." Mom loudly laughs at the idea of Kuya throwing a tantrum.

Palagi naman 'yan, nothing new. But he is a reliable Kuya. When I ask him for help, he would immediately gave me hand. Minsan nga lang ay umaakto siyang iba. Yung tipong gagawa siya ng isang bagay, which I find weird.

I shake the thought off and focus my attention to something I want to talk about.

"By the way Dad, I'm planning to join the volleyball team, also this year." I always informed Dad on every important thing that I do. I'm the sporty type of girl and I've always liked playing volleyball since I remembered. In Junior high, I was the captain of my team. My role is simple but very significant, since I'll be the one who helps my team to stay motivated.

Dad sliced the ham into half and takes a fork of it. "Okay, got no problem with that. I was also planning to sponsor the team. I know how you love playing." Kinuha niya ang baso na may lamang kape at uminom rito. My family has always been supportive of my hobbies, ever since. That's why I'm always thankful.

Kuya then arrived in less than 10 minutes than I expected. Bilis ah!

He's wearing a black stripe shirt, black jeans and white shoes. Gaya-gaya ng OOTD. No originality! He just let his dark brown hair in a messy state. Well, bagay naman sa kanya. Lumapit siya sa mesa at kumuha lamang ng isang sandwhich.

"Son, want breakfast?" Mom asked. She stood up and was about to prepare his breakfast when Kuya stops her.

"No, Mom. I'll just eat at school. Leigh will definitely kill me if we ran late." Napatigil ako sa pagnguya at tiningnan ang aking wristwatch.

And dang! It's already 6:52 am. Bibyahe pa ng mga 20 minutes papuntang school from Beverly Hills Lahug!

"Mom, Dad we're leaving. We're almost late!" Dali-dali akong tumayo at pumunta sa kanilang gilid nila to kiss their cheeks, goodbye.

"Okay, Take care Dana, Vaughn." Dad while still eating.

Mom went to us to see us off. She helped me and Kuya wear our bags. Sinamahan din niya kami papuntang sasakyan, she open the Ford Everest's door at pinakasakay kami, she then bid us goodbye and closed the door.

Umandar na ang sasakyan but Mom's still waving at us.

Hay nako, Mom. She has always been doing that. Hindi na ako nasanay.

While on the way to the school, naramdaman ko ang ulo ni Kuya sa kaliwang balikat ko.

Kung ano-anong oras na kasi kung matulog.

Hindi ko na lang siya ginising. Inayos ko sa pagkakalagay ang kanyang ulo sa aking balikat. Walang magawa, tumingin na lang ako sa paglabas ng aming sasakyan ng Village.

We're now grade 11 students.
