Have you ever feel the feeling where you just want the time to stop? Like something heavy is in your chest and you just want that heaviness to go away? Let the world just swallow you whole. Anything ridiculous you could think off just to avoid that dreadful day to come.
Monday came and that day is that dreadful day where I need to start my punishment. Kaya I woke up at exactly 7:00 am and did my morning routine but this time I have to pick up a decent clothes to wear. Like hello? What do you expect? Di naman pwedeng mag-uniform parin ako, that's just absurd.
Kahapon lang ay na-orient na ako sa aking gagawin. Madali lang naman but who knows? It's still consider as babysitting. Mas worst pa nga because I have to teach them something. And imagine, I'll be doing it for two weeks. Two freaking weeks!
Kaya I pick up in my wardrobe a simple white crop top shirt where a word 'goddess' was imprinted and a high waisted jeans. Then paired with a simple vans shoes. Tinali ko naman ang buhok ko in a ponytail style saka naglagay ng kaunting powder sa aking mukha at liptint sa aking lips.
I completed my outfit with a small backpack na kung saan ang laman lang naman ay powder, liptint, wallet and my phone. Pag tingin ko sa sarili ko sa salamin, I smiled. Decent but still fashionable as it is.
My moment was cut off when someone knock on my door. Gone was the smile on my face I irritatingly open my door.
"What!?" inis kong bungad sa maid namin na animo'y nagulat at napaatras pa.
"M-ma'am may nag-hihintay po sa inyo sa baba."
"So pinapasok mo?! Who is it?!" Dumoble ang inis ko dito like what the hell? Pano kung di ko yun kilala? Pano kung magnanakaw yun? At ehohostage nila ako? Pano!?
Okay, calm down Romee you're thinking too absurd. Let the maid say something.
"Classmate niyo raw po Ma'am. Ean daw pangalan."
Now triple na talaga inis ko dito. Aargh! Can't this day be better? Umagang-umaga palang at ito na sasalubong sa akin!? Pleaaaase help me lord.
Wala akong nagawa kundi ang bumaba and well well.. naabutan ko naman si Ean sa living room namin. Sitting comfortably in our sofa, napaangat naman ito ng tingin sa akin when he saw me coming. I stop just a distance from him saka napameywang siyang tiningnan.
"What are you doing in here?" Mataray kong tanong dito.
"Sinusundo ka." Sagot naman niya while eyeing me from my face to my shoes.
Tinaasan ko naman siya ng kilay. Now this is the first time I heard him spoke tagalog. And to hell why did it sound so freaking hot?
"What are you wearing?" Kunot-noong tanong nito sa akin.
"What? It's called clothes if you want me to spell it to he--" Before I could even curse at him he cut me off.
"I know damn it! What I mean is are you seriously wearing that?" Inis nitong salita while throwing a pissed look at me.
Wow, I pissed him off. I think I deserve an award for that. By how calm and collected our SG President always, someone goddess like me lang pala ang titibag dito. Yay for me.
"Yes, why, is there any problem with this?" I asked sweetly pointing at my clothes and slightly tilting my head to add more effect in pang-iinis him.
"You could've wear something decent and-"
"This is decent!" Diniin ko talaga yung 'is'. Like hello!? Decent naman tong suot ko a'.
"Yeah and it's showing your midriff." He scoffed.
"It is not! And sabihin mo sumisilip ka!" I gasped horribly looking at him.
"No it's peeking under that very short top." Taas-kilay nitong pahayag like hindi siya makapaniwalang pinagbintangan ko nga siyang sumisilip.
"It's called crop top." I glared at him now the table has totally turned. Ako na itong super duper pissed off sa kanya and he's clearly enjoying it!
"No wonder it looks like a piece of shirt that is crop from its original size."
Can I just kill this guy? Here in our house? I promise no one would ever know.
"Can you just please shut up if all you're gonna do is to keep pestering me with my choice of clothing!?" I sternly said.
"Okay." He easily said and I sighed.
"But you could've pick a simple t-shirt and jeans or a dress perhaps paired with a cardigan on top of it."
Okay, that's it.
"YOU JERK!" I shouted angrily before running to him kaya napatayo naman ito mula sa pagkakaupo kaya I quickly jumped to him and strangled him causing him to sit back and crashed his back in the cushion.
Hindi dahil babae ako at may sense of fashion, bully, maarte and all ay hindi na ako sumusugod ng lalaki. Akala niya ha,I will kill him! The hell I care with my posture!
Yung feeling na... ito na, malapit na, kunti nalang and you'll win in the big game na talaga? It was super duper close. Ean was totally in shock pa talaga siguro sa pagsugod ko kaya he just hold my wrists but he never push me back. Instead my moment to victory was cut off by a voice.
"Holy mother sweet heavens! Romelyn what are you doing?!"
And that voice belongs from my mother.
I stopped and my eyes turns wide when I realized what I have done. My hands are wrapped around his neck and his awkwardly half laying and sitting between my knees that are on top of the cushion. I'm barely sitting him. Okay, this is so awkward.
Ean tilted his head to peek at my mother that's just behind me before he looked at me.
"Get off."
Quick as a lightning volt I sat at the sofa beside him. Slightly panting from my act of rage kanina I slowly look at my mother. Who's eyes are now wide looking at us unbelievably. Like we just did something wrong.
Well I really did something wrong. Goodness! It's this guy's fault! If he hadn't provoked me then maybe we're not in this state right now.
"You two. Ang babata niyo pa! I know teenagers this days can't stop this-this! Kind of thing!" My mother sighed and massaged her temples.
My forehead creased. Okay I think something is off.
"Who knows kung san na kayo nakaabot. My goodness, I can't believe this. Ean I'm gonna call your parents right now. You two stay in here!"
What the hell is happening?
