"Kuya?"

I was shookt.

Di ako makagalaw sa kinatatayuan ko. Andaming nangyayari ngayong araw. My mind can't process everything that was happened today.

I glanced at my kuya na parang ghost na nag appear sa mismong harap ko.

He still staring intensely at Mikhail.

I'm in the middle of the chaos. Seriously? Ugh.

Mikhail raise his both hands like a criminal that was caught in action.

"Bro relax. I'm just greeting your lil sis." Pagdadahilan nito na ikinataas ng kilay ko.

The jaw of my kuya clenched. Probably because of irritation.

"Greetings? You don't need to. Stay away from my sister." Sabay hila ulit sa akin ni kuya with a little bit of aggressiveness.

" You can't dictate me Luther. Unless your sister says so. But I will still follow her because I will devote my whole heart only for her." Sagot nito.

"Seriously? It doesn't sounds like you Mikhail. So cheesy." He's like he was disgust by Mikhail's words.

"W-wait. Kuya?" I interrupted their argument.

"What? May pag uusapan pa tayo Athena." I gulped so hard. He never calls me by my first name unless he's mad.

His response is dry towards mine. Did I do something wrong? Hopefully not.

"At Ikaw Mikhail stop pestering my sister. Tsk." He clicked his tongue. Nakakapit pa din sa braso ko si kuya.

I'm so dead.

"Why not? I like your sis." I glaced at him and gave him a deadly look.

"Mikhail! You can fool around with the other girls but my sister is an exception!" Pangangaral nito sa sariling kaibigan.

"Who says I'm fooling around with your lil sis?" He said it in a serious tone.

"Mikhail! Kuya is mad! Stop na." Pagsusuway ko dito.

God. I'm here to enjoy my highschool life. But why am I put in a complicated situation like this.

He grinned at me. And I am having a goosebumps.

I have a bad feeling na ipoprovoke pa niya lalo si kuya.

"Kuya. Can we talk about this some other time pls?" Pagpapaawa ko dito.

"No."

"But kuy---"

"No."

I just frowned. I'm feeling terrified.

I know his attitude. He's so bossy.

Mukhang napansin naman niya na madilim na. Nakagat ko nalang ang mga daliri ko sa sobrang kaba.

He sighed.

"Fine. Ihahatid na kita sa dormitory niyo."

I said 'yes' in my inner mind.

Mikhail interrupted our sibling conversation.

"Can I join you?" Suhestyon nito.

"Hindi. Ayoko. Get lost." Pagsusungit nito.

My kuya is super hot headed. Napakababaw ng temper.

"Unfair." Pang aasar nito.

"Why? I'm the kuya. And what about you?" Masungit na tanong nito.

He smirked. " I'm the soon to be hubby"

"You dimwit!" He griped his hands sa sobrang inis.

Pikon na pikon na ito kay Mikhail.

And sinubukan ko naman ibahin ang usapan.

"Both of you, pls stop okay?" Mahinahon kong sambit.

" Balik na ako sa dorm cauz' I'm tired." Pagdadahilan ko. Sana mag work out.

Kumaripas na ako ng lakad palayo sa dalawa.

"Hey!!! Athena!" My brother followed me.

And Mikhail followed us right away.

Sa paglalakad ko ay hinawakan ako ni Mikhail sa braso at hinablot naman siya in kuya palayo sa akin.

Hinigit ako ng aking kapatid.

Nakakafustrate.

Naghihigitan silang dalawa sa likuran ko.

At ang mga tao ay napapatingin na sa gawi namin.

Nakakarinig pa ako ng mga ilang nagbubulungan.

Yumuko ako sa sobrang hiya na aking nararamdaman.

Mas lalo kong binilisan ang aking paglakad hanggang sa makapasok na ako ng building.

Balak ko na sana pindutin ang button sa elevator ng magsalita ang dalawa.

"What floor Athena?"

"Number ng floor darlin?"

Urgh. I am stucked by this two men. I looked behind them.

"Ako na wag na kayo mag away." And I turn around.

Pinindot ko ang button.

After a few seconds at nagbukas ito at pumasok na ako. Nag uunhan pa ang dalawang magkaibigan .

Pinapagitnaan nila ako.

"Touch Athena or else you're gonna meet your guardian angel." He threatened Mikhail.

Mikhail chuckled. " Easy bro. "

At nanahimik nalang ako at hindi na umimik pa.

Nagtatalo pa ang dalawa sa loob ng elevator. And I tried to distance myself from them.

But they stick with me like a glue.

Pagkabukas na pagkabukas ng elevator ay kumaripas ako ng lakad papunta sa unit room namin.

Bubuksan ko na sana ang pintuan pero naalala ko may nakasunod pa pala sa akin.

"Uhm papasok na ako hindi pa ba kayo babalik?"

"Pinapaalis mo na kami?" He groaned. I'm pertaining to Mikhail.

"Ok. See you around then." He grabbed Mikhail's shirt and he dragged him through the elevator.

Habang binubuksan ko ang pintuan ay sumigaw pa ito sa akin.

" Roze. Don't forget about me!!  I'm Mikhail your baby!"

Lumingon ako dito at inirapan.

Nakita ko pa iyong binatukan ng aking kapatid.

Natawa nalang ako.

Pumasok na ako sa aming dormitory at nagsimulang maglakad papunta sa aking kwarto.

I jumped on the bed and throw my bag on the chair beside my bed.

Hah. I'm so tired

Nakakarelax.

Because I'm exhausted, I closed my eyes and...

Everything went black.
