Admiring You

Chapter 1

I Am lying alone in my bed, watching vlogs and basically making my self entertained. Kasalukuyan kasing christmas break ngayon at wala naman akong pwedeng gawin kundi ang magbabad sa laptop o kaya naman sa cellphone.

Bukod kasi sa wala akong ganang gumala, alam ko namang hindi ako papayagan. Knowing that my parents are so strict. They will only let me go outside if it's church, school or kung may kailangan akong bilhin sa mall.
Aside from that, no. Hindi. Bawal. Hindi pwede. I am not allowed.

Unless, kasama ko si mom or if my dad permits me to go with my bestfriend, Hannah. Pero syempre, it should always have limitations. You know, typical strict parents rules. However, I don't mind though.

Kapag only child kasi kadalasan bantay sarado talaga. I know their reasons and I am grateful for them. I love them with all my heart.

Tsaka, knowing that I am still a minor, plus my father was a retired policeman, hindi talaga ako papayagang magparty at magboyfriend.

Nag-eenjoy na ako sa panunuod ng isang vlog nang tumawag ang bestfriend kong si Hannah.

Oo nga pala, it's her birthday today! Gosh! Muntik ko ng makalimutan!

"Hey B! Where are you na ba? The party is about to begin!"

Oh my God! I'm so dead! Nakalimutan ko nga palang may dinner party siya ngayon sa bahay nila. Hindi ako nakasagot sa tanong niya.

"Oh my Gosh! Don't tell me Bea Lourine that you just forgot my birthday celebration today?!"

"Uhmm, hello sissy! Uhh-."

"Cut it, B! Come here, right now! Or else magtagampo talaga ako!" Ayan na nga ba ang sinasabi ko.

"Oh please no, I'll be there na. Mag aayos lang ako, okay?"

"You better be! I'll be waiting. Bye!" Argh! Ba't ko ba kasi nakalimutan? Ano kayang isusuot ko? Bahala na!

I hate it kapag limited ang time ko para maghanap ng masusuot at ang pag aayos ng mukha. I love making myself beautiful. I love makeups! I love the confidence that cosmetics give me.

But now is not the right time to waste any minute. Kailangan na ako ng bestfriend ko doon so simple makeup na lang ang gagawin ko.

Thanks God! After 20 minutes of choosing, I decided to wear a red backless draped split thigh satin dress paired with black tie up heels. I straightened my long black hair and I put some light make up to emphasize the naturalness and feminity of my young beauty.

Bagay na bagay for a seventeen year old me!

For the final time, I looked at my mirror and cast a smile and voila! I'm so ready for tonight! Good thing nakapagpaalam na ako sa parents ko beforehand and guess what? They agreed! Pero syempre I need to go home before midnight, my curfew time. Oh pak! Cinderella yarn?

At last! Nandito na rin ako sa labas ng gate ng bestfriend ko. Nagpahatid na ako dito sa driver namin. Hindi na ako nag abala pa na magpapasok sa loob. Ang dami na kasing tao and I wanna walk this heels!

Yes, I have a personal driver para ihatid at sunduin ako just like how my dad wants. He wants me safe and secured everyday and everytime and I think that is so sweet.

Hindi naman kami ganoon kayaman but I will consider our family as "may kaya". I am not a spoiled brat, let's put it there but may times talaga na nagiging magastos ako for personal or material things na gusto ko for myself. In short, I am spoiling myself sometimes.

I think that is one of the advantages of being an only child. However, grateful naman ako sa lahat ng bagay at tao sa paligid ko.

"Hoy, gaga! Akala ko di ka na dadating! But anyways, I love your look today! Tamang tama at madaming hot delicious men! Papunta dito ang mga friends ng kuya ko, B!" Iba talaga tabas ng dila nitong si Hannah.

"Really? Well, it's time sissy! Let's..."

"HUNT!" sabay naming bigkas ni Hannah. Nagtawanan kami sa kalokohan namin. Kaya mahal na mahal ko 'tong bestfriend ko na ito eh. Nagkakasundo kami sa lahat ng bagay. I'm so lucky to have her.

And so, I hug her.
"Sissy? Happiest Birthday! I love you and thank you for everything. I'm so lucky to have you, Hannah!" She hugged me back.

"And so am I, B."

Pagkatapos ng short drama namin ng bestfriend ko, inaya niya na akong pumasok sa bahay nila. But somehow, I feel so uneasy. Parang kinakabahan ako na ewan. Hays, I decided to shrugged it off.

The flow of the party was indeed successful. Hindi natuloy ang hunting namin dahil wala naman dito ang mga friends ni kuya Allyson. Kain lang ako ng kain dito. Mabuti na lang at long lasting itong lipstick ko kaya no worries.

Maya maya nakarinig kami ng tawanan, papasok sa bahay nila Hannah. Busy akong kumain kaya hindi ko na binigyan ng pansin iyon. Lumalakas ng lumalakas ang mga boses nila sa pandinig ko, hudyat na palapit sila sa kinaroroonan ko.

Out of curiosity, I gave them my attention.

Lumingon ako sa pinanggagalingan ng mga boses. I got shocked on what I just saw. Fuck! How can these greek gods be infront of me?

However, out of 4 of them, yes binilang ko talaga! Ang gwagwapo bes! Yun nga, sa kanilang lahat, one caught my eyes or should I say attention.

Wearning tight jeans paired with sparx men's loafer shoes and white long sleeve that is piled up to his elbow. Argh! Those veins.

Tall, check! Broad shoulders, check! Strong muscles, check! Veiny arms, check! Neat hairstyle, check! Handsome face, check na check! But wait! There's more! Omg! Is that a pierce on his lips?

I am busy admiring this greek god when suddenly...

"B! Nakikinig ka ba?" "Sabi na eh, maglalaway ka sa mga kaibigan ng kuya ko." Sabay tawa niya. Tadyakan ko kaya 'to sa noo.

"Ano ba yun?" Inis kong tanong sakanya.
"Eh kasi naman, kanina pa sila umalis dyan sa harap mo pero nakatunganga ka pa rin." Hala oo nga 'no? Di ko napansin yun ah.

Kaya nagkunwari na lang ako. "Oo, alam ko. Ano ka ba! Nag-mumuni muni lang ako kung noo mo ba o puson mo ang tatadyakan ko!" Biglang sumimangot naman ang mukha niya.

"B, naman eh! Excuse me? Birthday ko kaya!"

"Syempre, joke lang!" Hindi mawala sa isip ko ang lalaking yun. How old is he kaya? Is this what they call 'love at first sight'?

"Ang gwapo nila 'no?" Biglang tanong ni Hannah sa akin. Gusto ko sanang sabihin na, oo naman yes! Pero wag na lang baka kung anong sabihin niya kaya dapat chill lang. Charot!

"Hmm, pwede na."
"Wow ha!" Sabay tuloy kaming natawa.
"Alam mo sissy, why don't we go there? Para ipakilala tayo ni kuya."
"Ha? Hindi ba nakakahiya?" Parang ayokong lumapit dun, nakakaintimidate ang mga awra nila lalo na yung lalaking yun.

"Ano ka ba, B! Akala ko ba hunting?"

"Sige na nga!" Ngayon lang naman lalandi. Sorry ma, pa. Char!

"Basta akin yung naka-blue ha!" Sabi naman ni Hannah sa akin.

"Okay, yung naka-white long sleeves sa akin!" Sabi ko naman sakanya.

"Omg! First bet ko rin yun kaso medyo natakot ako. Hindi man lang ngumiti eh." Actually, I like it. So fierce, so dangerous to look at.

"Exactly, my type."
