"Hello!" masayang bati ko kay Vico pagkasagot niya sa tawag ko.



"Hello,love." he greeted me back.Sounds like I wake him up.


Ah right,Vico is my boyfriend.We've been together for around two years now.We're actually schoolmates back then when we're highschool.



"Good morning love!" bati ko kay Vico na bahagya pang kinukutkot ang unan ko.This wasn't new to me though,we would always call each other every morning but I can't just get used to the feeling of overflowing love and happiness everytime we call.



"Good morning—ugh...fuck alcohol." I stilled because of that.He didn't told me his whereabouts last night.It's not that I want to control him but I think I have the rights,right?I'm his girlfriend.He should atleast tell me.



I heaved a deep sigh,my overflowing happiness fade just in a blink.My heart feels heavy but I chose to ignore it.I smiled again even though Vico won't see it.



"You drunk last night?" I ask,hindi pinapahalata ang pait sa boses ko.



This wasn't new to me anyway.It's alright.No need to worry Sandy.It's fine.Just...keep on understanding him.You love him,right?



"Ah yeah,I forgot to call you,sorry." he answered.I tsked,rolled my eyes, you don't even sound sorry at all,bitch!



"So,I gotta hang up now.I have class,bye." he continued,ofcourse I was shocked.These past few days he's been this cold to me.



I was about to say my goodbye but he ended the call without waiting for my reply.The bitch side in me was triggered because of that.I raised my eyebrow,still staring at the screen of my cellphone.I opened my gallery and viewed Vico's solo photo.



I raised my eyebrow even more.I gritted my teeth while staring at his pic that has a very wide smile plastered on his lips.This photo was taken just last week during our date.He was holding a milktea on his right hand while his other hand was inside his pocket.He looked so neat.Yeah whatever,what can you expect from a rich young law student man?



"Hey Vico,love." I said with a soft voice,with a soft expression on my face while staring at this photo. "Che!Akala mo gwapong gwapo ka ha?!Putangina mo,Vico!Mukha kang pwet ng baboy,'tamo pink pink pa yang pisngi mo,mukha ka talagang pwet ng baboy!Pasalamat ka nga,mahal kita eh!Che!Ikaw pa may ganang magbaba ng tawag,wow ha!Wow lang!" nanggigigil na litanya ko habang dinuduro ang mukha ni Vico sa screen ng cellphone ko.



Napalingon ako sa pinto ko nang may kumatok doon.Nakataas pa rin ang isang kilay ko habang hinihintay makapasok ang kumakatok.



"Señorita,kakain na po." maikling sambit ng katulong namin nang makitang kay aga aga nakabusangot ang mukha ko.



Tumango lang ako sa kaniya at lumabas naman siya kaagad.Inis kong binalingan ang picture ni Vico,pinitik ko ito sa mukha.



"Tingnan mo!Nasira ang mood ko dahil sayo!Natakot tuloy sa akin si Ate Ari!" paninisi ko sa pic ni Vico.Bumangon ako at lumayo sa kama,nang medyo makalayo layo na ako ay binato ko ang cellphone sa kama ko.I am so damn angry!


'Putangina mo talagang Vico ka!'


Mabilis akong naligo at nagbihis.Wala akong pasok ngayon kaya plano kong bisitahin ang bwiset na Vico na yun.Pumunta ako ng dining room at nakita ko ang mga kuya kong kumakain.Wala na naman sila mama at papa.


Bunso ako,I have four kuyas..


"Sania Dente..." nang aasar na tawag sa akin ni kuya Camilo,he is the most bully of all.Alam niyang ayaw na ayaw kong tinatawag ako gamit ang pangalan ko kaya inaasar niya ko palagi.He's the fourth child,tas ako na yung kasunod niya kaya close kami.I forgot,we are all close to each other.The bond between us are unbreakable!
