#5 - It's the boobs

I found this one cute hehe.

I sighed feeling frustrated, i've been driving around Quezon Avenue for hours trying to find the place where i'm supposed to meet my date.

Blind date to be exact.

Flash back :

"Andyan ka lang pala!" malakas na sigaw nang kapatid ko nang makita akong nakaupo sa library.

Masama ko siyang tinignan at malakas na hinampas sa balikat, nagababasa ako dito eh! Istorbo puta.

"Aray ko naman, bakit ang sungit nanaman nang baby sis?" anas nang kuya ko habang pinipisil ang pisnge ko.

Pinanlakihan ko siya nang mata, nang babanta.

Natawa lang siya at umupo sa harap ko, hindi siya nagsalita at nakangiti lang sa'kin. Halatang may binabalak.

"Magkano kailangan mo?" tanong ko, hindi parin inaalis ang mga mata sa article na binabasa ko.

He gasped dramatically and places his palm firmly on his chest, i raised my brows at him. Feeling impatient.

"Dearest sister, i am offended that you think like that. I make more money than you, thank you very much" he defended and glared at me, i smirked teasingly and rolled my eyes.

"Eh ano nga kailangan mo? Bakit ka nandito at nangiistorbo?" ungos ko, lumapad ang ngisi nito at nilapit ang mukha niya.

"Naiset up kita sa blind date" bulong nito, pinanliitan ko siya nang mata at malakas na pinitik ang noo. Agad siyang napaatras at napahawak doon sa tinamaan ko.

"Ikaw ang hilig mo manakit!" naiinis na ani niya, mahina akong natawa at isinarado ko ang librong binabasa ko.

"Bakit mo naman naisipan iset up ako sa date? Hindi ba dati ay tinatakot mo pa ang mga lalaki na nakapaligid sa'kin na huwag akong susubukang ligawan kasi tatamaan sila sayo?" taas kilay kong ani. Bumuntong hininga si kuya at inayos ang buhok niya.

"Eh kasi naman, 27 ka na at wala ka parin nagiging boyfriend. Dati oo protective ako sayo kasi bata ka pa, madaling manipulahin at masaktan" he looked at me with concerned eyes.

"Pero ngayon, matanda ka na. You are a strong and independent woman i believe that you deserve to find love, may it work or not" i chuckled and leaned back on my chair.

He does have a point.

I have dedicated my whole life to my career and to where i am now, the sad part is the sacrifices i had to make to get here. It was worth it yes but in result i never really had the chance to live my life, specifically my youth.

I was a loner and a study freak during my college days, i studied even more after that but was never friendly to others. Sad but i did what i had to do to succeed. I looked back at my brother and sighed deeply.

"Oh sige, payag ako diyan sa binabalak mo" i nodded, he looked up at me squealed. The librarian shot us a menacing glare which made him shut up easily.

He stood up and kissed my forehead.

"Text ko nalang sayo yung details, alis na ako malalate na ako sa trabaho" he said before walking away. I shook my head and gathered all my things and quickly left the library.

I have to work too.

Present :

I sighed as i finally pulled up in the parking lot of the restaurant my brother sent me, i looked at the mirror in my car and shook my head when i saw myself.
