The Legacy (COMPLETED)

XLIII. In the Party with the Past

I stayed silent after the heat that was built by me and Freya. I knew that I had to stop myself from being too tactless. Isang mafia ang kausap ko at hindi ko gugustuhin ang makalaban siya. Although siya yung nauna but I know better. Hindi na maganda kapag pinagpatuloy ko pa.

"Done yet?" puno ng inis na tanong ni Kenjie.

"Shut up," malamig na sita ni Freya. "You know I'm a perfectionist. Kahit ayaw ko sa mine-make up-an ko gusto kong perfect."

There! She said it. Hindi nga niya ako gusto and I would care less. Simula't sapol, I knew she don't like me.

"How dare you talk to me like that?" padabog na tanong ni Kenjie.

Nakakapangilabot yung boses niya pero parang hindi naapektuhan si Freya. Nananatili siyang kalmado habang patuloy pa rin akong ayusan.

Hindi sumagot si Freya sa kanya kaya inis siyang tumalikod at naglakad papalayo.

"Do you like him?" biglang tanong ko.

Napahinto si Freya saka napayuko. Agad siyang umiling saka ibinalik yung atensyon sa akin.

"I told you to be cooperative. Stop asking nonsense questions."

"Why are changing the topic?" tanong ko.

Napapikit siya saka bumuntong-hininga. I bet pinapataas niya yung pasensya niya sa akin. I can be really annoying sometimes. Well, sometimes.

"I said stop," madiin niyang sabi. Walang emosyon sa boses niya pero ramdam mo ang pagbabanta.

Pinili kong manahimik na lang. Obviously I can't ask questions because she won't answer them.

Kahit naman hindi niya sabihin na gusto niya yung lalaki ay obvious naman. O baka ako lang talaga yung nakahalata. E kasi naman, she looks irritated when she learned about my existence being the Bishop's date. Hindi man niya sabihin pero nakikita ko. I know how to read people.

Ilang minuto ang lumipas ay natapos na din si Freya sa pag ayos sa akin. Agad niyang niligpit ang make up kit niya at lumabas sa kotse. Hindi na nga ako nakapagpasalamat kasi agad siyang lumabas.

"You owe me," sabi niya kay Kenjie.

"Thank goodness you're done!" Kenjie exclaimed. "I don't owe you anything."

"You owe me," pag-uulit ni Freya. "First, you replaced me and second, you made me a make up artist. Alam mo namang I'm better than that," she rolled her eyes. "I prefer cleaning someone than doing somebody else's make up."

"Fine," pagsusuko ni Kenjie. "I'll pay you. What do you want?"

"What do you have to offer?" Freya crossed her arms under her breast.

"Hmm..." Kenjie thought. "One night stand?"

Agad dumapo yung kamao ng babae sa pisngi ng lalaki. Hawak ang pisngi, hinarap ni Kenjie si Freya na nanlalaki yung mga mata.

"What was that for?" tanong niya.

"Motherfvcker! Leave your promiscuity elsewhere. You can't get to me by putting your hands under my pants! You disguting piece of shit!"

Binangga ni Freya yung balikat ni Kenjie habang naglalakad papalapit sa kotseng nakaparada sa harap. Hindi ko yun napansin kanina.

"You can't do that to me! I'm higher than you!" he shouted at her but she just pulled out her middle finger without facing the latter.

She opened her car door and entered. She then directly close the door and started the engine. She drove away leaving smoke to Kenjie's face.

I don't get it. Sa naririnig ko mas mataas ng rango si Kenjie. Pero bakit ganun nalang ang trato ni Freya sa kanya?
