The Curse of Limerence ✔

Chapter 17

ARTEMIS' POV

"Athena, stop it kasi!" I yelled at her. She keeps throwing the dirty cloth in my face! I'm busy sweeping the floor and she's distracting me.

"Athena, stop it kasi." She mocked me and she even copied my arte voice. I rolled my eyes.

"I'm sweeping the floor kasi, bato ka nang bato ng basahan!" Sita ko sa kanya.

I tied my hair to a messy bun. I was just wearing a large mint shirt and cycling shorts. I haven't taken a bath, can you imagine that? This bitch told me that we need to do a general cleaning in her condo.

That's the first thing she said after we woke up!

Bullets of my sweat are dripping on my temple and collarbone. I didn't know that someone would make me do this. Napakahirap pala nito. At ito bang kasama ko, tumatawa pa kapag nakikita ako nahihirapan.

"You've been sweeping the floors for hours, Artemis, forsake. Get the mop already." Utos niya sa akin habang siya at busy sa pag pupunas ng mga furnitures.

Napanguso naman ako at dabog na nilagay ang walis. Tinaasan niya naman ako ng kilay.

"I want to take a bath na. I am uncomfortable." Reklamo ko habang hawak ang mop.

She let out a sigh and she put her both hands on her hips while looking at me.

"Hindi tayo matatapos dito kapag reklamo ka nang reklamo." Seryoso niyang sabi.

Napairap na lang ako at padabog na naglalampaso ng sahig. I may be ignorant about cleaning the house but except for mopping the floor. I once saw the staff mopping the floor in many places like restaurants.

Tumingin ako sa pwesto ni Athaleigh. Pa-simple ako sumusulyap sa kanya habang naglalampaso ng sahig. Minsan iiwas kapag titingin siya pabalik sa akin.

She's just wearing purple sando and shorts. I can see her bare pale arms. Why does she still look clean even in this state? Habang ako ay basang basa na sa pawis, because she turned the aircon off!

She's also dripping clear sweats on her neck down to her chest. She tied her hair like yesterday. Walang kabuhay buhay ang mga mata habang naglilinis, at seryosong ginagawa ito. Parang may kaaway, napanguso na lang ako at natawa.

"Is there something funny about cleaning?"

Natigilan ako nang marinig ang boses niya. Mabilis ko inalis ang tingin sa kanya. I cleared my throat.

"I wasn't laughing." I said casually and she just smiled at me sarcastically. And her expression literally saying, seriously?

I just focused on my work and started to clean the floor, walls, and even the windows. I'm too desperate to clean myself, I feel sticky. She also said that after this, we can have lunch together.

I'm not really sure if we're really going to cook or order something. But she said yesterday that we will watch some tutorials on YouTube so that might happen or not.

Tinapos ko lang ang paglilinis bago napagdesisyonan na kumuha na ng damit para may masuot mamaya pagkatapos ko maligo.

I grabbed my brown silk satin top that I ordered yesterday because I was too lazy to get up my ass and bring my clothes over here so I bought na lang online.

I grabbed Leigh's sweatpants, I unconsciously smirked. Sabi niya tanging sweaters and shirts lang ang pwede ko hiramin but it seems like she didn't care when I borrowed her hoodie, sweatpants and pajamas.

Of course, she would notice it but she chooses to ignore it. I giggled and shook my head.

That dumbass, pa-simple pa pero willing naman ipahiram ang buong closet niya.
