Walang gana lumakad ako papasok ng bahay at pag katapos umakyat sa itaas saka pumasok sa kwarto ko. Nakapag bihis na ako ng pang bahay na damit. Nag tungo ako kwarto nila mama at papa. Kumatok mo na ako bago pumasok.
"Ma, why did you let Andrei watch over me?" I said irritably. I harshly brush my hair upwards and downwards.
"Sit here next to me first," agaran ko naman sinunod. "Because darling, I can trust him because you grew up together and he is the son of your tita Mary Anne and tito Sean," she calmly stroke my hair right after that and she cupped my face so that we could face each other.
"Ma, we used to be close before, now we are not," sabay diin ko sa bawat salita.
"Just because of that?" mama was laughing.
"Not just that ma it also his attitude I don't like it," I shrugged with pout in my lips.
"Bear with it darling cause after all he's kind and gentlemen," mama said with assurance smile.
"Yeah whatever you say so but for me he's not," I walked out to the room. When I came out, papa was on the side.
"Pa, bakit 'di ka pumasok sa kwarto?" takang tanong ko.
"Sabi kasi ni manang nag uusap daw kayo ni mama mo at alam ko naman girl talk, kaya hindi mo na ako pumasok hanggang sa matapos kayo,"
I feel flattered when papa is being like this. Ngumiti ako sa kanya tsaka niyakap siya at niyakap niya rin ako pabalik.
"Go downstairs anak, the food has already been served, I'll get dressed first and then your mom and I will go down," he patted my head.
"Okay pa," I nod.
Masaya ako nag tungo sa dining area habang may ngiti sa aking labi. Ngunit bigla ito nag laho makita ko si Andrei may ngiti nakakaloko. Kasama niya naman ang kaniyang magulang.
"Hello good evening iha," sabay bati nina tita Mary Anne and tito Sean.
"Good evening din po sainyo," pagkatapos humalik ako sa pisngi nila.
Uupo na sana ako ng humirit si Andrei. "Bakit ako wala halik sa pisngi?" inosente at maamong mukha niya.
Walang hiya talaga siya mas lalo tuloy ako naiinis sa kanya. Arrgh! Gago talaga!
"Bawal ho kasi tsaka 'wag ka feeling close," pagtataray ko.
"Maka ho ka naman parang 'di tayo mag kasing edad," he do the dramatic on his face.
I don't feel the same way of intensity to argue him back so I just his next to him until my parents came down, we settled and start eating. Tahimik lang ako habang kumakain, napansin naman nina mama at papa just like tita and tito their son also. I won't mind I just look at them and showed my smile a little bit.
"Bakit ata ang tahimik mo ngayon? Tapos 'di ka rin nakipag talo sa'kin," bulong ng katabi ko.
"Pwede ba just for now can you please zip your mouth para magkaroon naman ako ng peace of mind," pinakikitigan ko ito ng mabuti ng wala emosyon sa aking mukha.
He thought of something for a minute. "Okay, your wish is my command," he crossed his arms.
Andrei's parents talked to me. I just talked to them back but unfortunately I can't entertain like I was talkative. Nag paalam mo na ako matapos kumain, tsaka ako gumayak paakyat.
Nag hilamos ako pagkatapos ng toothbrush at nag lagay ng polbo ito yung pang skin care routine ko. Nang makalabas muntikan na ako ma out of balance dahil sa gulat.
"Ano ba?! Aatakihin mo ba ako sa gulat?!" bulyaw ko rito.
Preting nakaupo ito sa paanan ng higaan ko. "Oh sorry I didn't mean it," he sounded doesn't even care--- even careless.
I walked towards my bed sumampa muna ako at nasa likod na niya ako. Wala pasabi tinulak ko siya.
"What the hell!" and then he silently held his breath continue cursed underneath.
"Umalis kana!" I shouted.
"Your rude and brats," he face me and strongly gaze at me.
"Yes I am," pinatatag ko aking kalooban tumingin pabalik sa kanya. "Kasi nakakabwesit ka! kaya huwag kana mag taka pa," tinulaktulak ko naman siya palabas tsaka padabog sinarado ang pintuan.
As soon as I closed my eyes my phone suddenly rang. Kinakapakapa ko yung selpon ko sa ilalim ng unan ko, I open my one eye I directly answer it ni hindi ko na tinignan yung caller.
"Hello," fully I closed my eyes.
"Hey, did I disturb you?" he lighten his chuckles.
I widely open my eyes to see the caller it was written in the screen unregistered number. "Bullshit I was in the moment to sleep," I hissed.
"Hahahahahahaha," he just laugh until I feel angry.
"You Mr. Asshole Mutherfucker!!!" I groan in frustrated. "Fuck off!" nanginginig ako sa galit tumingin sa selpon ko at mabilis na pinatay ang selpon ko, power off kumbaga.
Pinakalma ko mo na ang aking sarili at naisipan ko lumabas, nag lakad papunta sa hagdan.
"Anak," napatanga tumingin ako kay mama.
"Ma at pa, bakit hindi kapa natutulog?"
Instead of answering they tap the sofa between in them. Napatango naman ako and lower my gaze on the carpet.
"Ano po yun ma at pa?"
Narinig ko naman sabay sila mabigat na buntong hininga. Papa was holding my hands.
"Anak mali yung ginawa mo kay Andrei," papa was sounded serious.
"Ang alin po?" confused was plastered in all over my face.
"You push Andrei out of your bed and you didn't say sorry about it," mama said.
"Ma at pa, ginulat niya ako sa gulat kaya kulang nagawa yun sa kanya," I reason out.
"Pero anak hindi pa rin yun tama," saad ni papa.
"Alam ko po, o sige po hihingi na ako ng sorry," they hug me.
Uminom mo na ako ng tubig. Sabay kami pumunta sa itaas. Nag dasal ako bago natulog.
