Push & Pull

Chapter 18

Vonne

I went home after my classes, I can't wait for later. I am simply getting way too excited and anxious all at the same time as the clock ticks. Like, what am I going to wear? What am I going to tell her? I don't know, there's a lot going in my head.

I decided to take a nap since I still have about 3 hours to kill. I felt myself going to a deep slumber

I woke up to a knock on my door, I slowly opened my eyes and it's pretty dark out. I saw my mom poked her head through my door.

"Honey, it's time for dinner. You've been sleeping for hours now, you need to eat" she said

And like a cat seeing a cucumber, I jumped from my bed.

Oh my gosh! Victoria!

I harshly grabbed my phone from my bed and checked the time.

I am fucking dead meat

It's half past 7pm.

Her voice rang through my head, remembering what she said earlier

"I want you in front of my goddamn door by 7 pm sharp"

She's gonna kill me

"What's wrong? Bat ba hindi ka mapakali dyan?" my mom asked, confused

"Mom, I can't join you at dinner tonight. Sorry" I said, as I was shuffling around making no sense at all

My mom said 'okay' and left with utter confusion showing on her face. I sprinted to my bathroom to freshen up. I decided to wear a white bralette crop-top and a soft black cargo jogger styled pants. I wore an Adidas stan smith to complete my outfit. I grabbed my wallet and my phone and dashed downstairs.

I jumped a little on the last step of the stairs which caught my parents' attention. I nearly laughed at my mom's reaction

"Krystal, honey. You're a taekwondo player, not superman" my dad commented
