Chapter Twenty-Two: We're going out of the Country
- - -
Shamie's POV
Hindi ko namalayan na nakatulog na ako kaka-isip ng kung ano-ano.
Good thing, medyo maagap ako nagising. It will take almost an hour for me to drive to Liam's school. Maybe that's also the reason kung bakit sya may condo, para malapit sa school nya. Takot kasi sya ma-late.
I first prepare breakfast for the other members before I leave, and left a note saying that I'll be going out. They know why naman na already.
I took a bath at 5:45, and pick a floral top and tucked it in with a high-waisted white jeans. I paired it with a not-so-high heels, maybe a two to three inches. And pick an earing that could fit into my outfit.
I leave the house at exactly 6:30. I might get there early than the said time, but early is better than late, right?
I arrived at the school by 7:16. I called Liam and fortunately, he answer my call.
"Noona, . ."
"Hey, I'm here na sa school mo. Where should I go?"
"Are you specifically inside the school already?"
"Not yet. The guard wouldn't allow me to go inside. Nasa labas pa ako, honestly."
"Give the phone to him Noona. I'll talk to him, . ." I do what he said, I handle my phone sa guard and let hin do the talking while I'm waiting.
After few minutes, binalik na sakin nung guard yung phone ko and let me inside the school. I parked ny car sa designated area for parking cars and call Liam again.
"Where should I go?" Tanong ko pagkalabas ko sa sasakyan.
"You're kinda familiar with the school, right noona?" He asked back, not answering my question.
"Yeah, but tha last time I came here was eleven or twelve years ago? You're not even a fetus that time." I said, lightly suppressing a chuckle while walking. Naglalakad ako kahit wala naman akong pupuntahan.
"Do you still remember tita Gina's office?" He asked.
"Yes, I guess."
"Okay, wait for me there. You're too early, we still have class. Susunduin nalang kita don tapos punta na tayo sa adviser ko for you to get my report card. Okay, bye." I see his trying to speak some few tagalog word in the middle of his sentence.
Since he was seven, nag-start na syang mag-aral dito sa Korea. And because of that, madali nyang na-adapt ang culture nila and their language, medyo nabuhol yung dila nya sa kapag nagta-tagalog sya. But, good thing that he's still trying.
Naglakad ako papunta sa office ni tita Gina. Tita Gina is mom's older sister, a shareholder of this school. Maybe that's also the reason kung bakit dito nag-aral si Liam.
