Erin's POV
Things have never been okay for me. Weekend na ngayon, meaning, NSTP for the whole day. After what happened on Monday, I have started waking up, feeling not okay. I don't know why. There could be a lot of reasons pero I don't specifically know what-----or maybe I just know pero dine-deny ko lang.
I've been awake since 5 AM or natulog nga ba ako? I remember closing my eyes at 4 AM then after a single blink, here I am, staring at the ceiling. Baka nga ilang puyat na lang kunin na ako ni kamatayan. My life seemed not that interesting at all, pero huwag muna sana. Nakakahiya mamatay, ang dami kong utang sa mga taong bumubuhay sa akin ngayon.
I immediately closed my eyes when the bed started to move. Becca is obviously starting to wake up. Did I mention na I never moved a single bit from my position kahit gising ako all night? I am scared na makabagabag ako ng tulog ng iba because me and Becca are sharing a single big bed. Malaki naman masyado ang higaan kaya we still have spaces for each other and we have put this hotdog pillow as our boundary, siya nakaisip niyan. She probably doesn't want me to invade her space kasi sa akin okay lang naman----wait, why does that sounded so gay?
I slightly opened my eyes to peek. She is sitting on the bed and stretching. Inayos ko agad ang pagkapikit ko dahil lumingon siya sa direksyon ko.
As I heard the door closed, I opened my eyes----which I shouldn't have done. Becca is looking at me while leaning on the door frame. I don't know what's running in her head dahil hindi ko siya mabasa. She sighed at sobrang lalim noon na para bang she is tired of something. Omg, nagulo ko ba tulog niya?
Her face softened after some time then smiled softly at me and my heart is surely filled with delight. Her features are not the same with Karli na parang santo pero once she put that damn smile in use, putangina, Saint Becca have mercy on us.
"Good morning, Erin."
"M-Magandang umaga rin," fuck, why did I stutter?
"Mauna na ako sa baba," she said and didn't even wait for me to say anything then left.
Shit, may ginawa ata akong mali.
I spent a few minutes in my bed, staring at nothing before getting myself out of it. Maingat akong kumuha ng ilang damit at ang towel ko. I had my head down while walking out of my room, pababa.
Napako naman ako sa kinatatayuan ko when I saw my housemates. They are talking seriously at....bakit sobrang lapit naman nila mag-usap? Becca had her back leaning on the refrigerator while Kang is in front of him. It took god-knows-how many minutes before Rebecca have noticed me. Nakatalikod kasi si Kang kaya 'di niya ako nakita. I saw how Rebecca pinched Kang kaya lumayo na sila sa isa't isa.
"Erin, my most beautiful cousin! Good morning!" Kang greeted.
"Anong maganda sa umaga?" pagsusungit ko. I don't fucking know why pero I suddenly have the urge to fucking decapitate him, tangina both heads!
My current gloomy mood is still gloomy pero medyo irita na ako ngayon. Nakabusangot kong tinahak ang daan papuntang CR at 'di pinansin ang reaksyon nila sa sinabi ko. Pagkatapos kong malagay lahat ng dala ko sa CR tumalikod na ako para i-lock na sana ang pinto pero halos malagutan ako ng hininga nang bumungad sa akin ang seryosong mukha ni Becca.
"Holy shit!" sigaw ko.
"Oh God, girlie. Huwag ka ngang manggulat ng ganyan!" reklamo ko.
Napatahimik naman agad ako when she did not react. Ni kurap lang ng mga mata niya, hindi niya ginawa. Luh, anong problema niya?
