Falling expeditiously

Kabanata 2

I fastened my speed while looking at the side mirror. Damn that guy!

I can see his smirking face the moment he sped up and bump my car so that he can be the first in line.

Inis na inapakan ko ang gas pedal. It wasn't a race anymore. It's already a bump car!

Napangisi ako nang umikot ikot ang kotse nya dahil sa pagbunggong ginawa ko. I can see the smoke surrounding him but the motherfucker won't stop.

Mas binilisan ko ang andar ng kotse nang makitang patakbo ang kotse nya palapit sa akin.

I'm biting my lower lip while moving the steering wheel side by side so I can avoid his car. Kapag nabangga nya ako ay parehas kaming titirik!

"Fuck." I whispered as I taste the blood from my lips. Napapikit ako nang maramdaman ang malakas na pagbunggo ng kotse nya sa likod ng kotse ko.

But that lead me to the finish line. I don't know what should I feel. How dare him bump my car?!

Nang lumabas ay narinig ko ang sigawan ng mga tao. They're cheering but I didn't mind. Nang makita kong lumabas sa kotse ang best friend ni Kuya ay agad ko syang sinugod.

"You're seriously getting into my nerves! How dare you hit my car?" I annoyingly shouted.

He smirked, "But you bump me back."

"Kasi binunggo mo din ako! Of course, I'll do the same." I answered.

He chuckled and shooked his head.

"Go and tell your Kuya. Hindi ako pumapatol sa bata." Nangaasar na sabi nya kaya mas lalo akong nainis.

I left the place before anyone can even talk to me. Sumakay ako sa kotse na dala nung pumunta dito at inis na nag drive pauwi.

I'm not even entering our house when my phone rang. Inis kong kinuha yon at sinagot.

"What?"

I heard my Mother's laugh.

"Hija, can you go here? Your Kuya is already here. Please, dress properly. This is a family dinner." She said and talk to someone before ending the call.

She didn't even asked me if I wanted to come.

Badtrip ako habang nagaasikaso. I wore a simple romper and let my straight hair down. Mahaba na yon. I brush my bangs so it will tamed.

I get another car because my car earlier isn't for this thing. That car is for my getaway.

Mabilis akong pumunta sa location na binigay ni Kuya. I bit my lower lip while driving. Nasaktan ako kaya binitawan ko din. I glance at the mirror, nagsugat pala.

I licked it to stopped myself from biting it.

Nang makarating sa lugar ay dire diretso akong pumasok. Kuya Reef raised his hand to catch my attention. Nang makalapit ako ay kumunot ang noo ko.

"I thought it's a family dinner?" I asked and roamed my eyes around the table. They all have a smile in their faces.

Nang makita ang Mom and Dad ng best friend ni Kuya ay ngumiti ako sa kanila. I went towards them to give a respect. Pagkatapos magmano ay umupo ako sa bakanteng upuan.

"Parang hindi kana nasanay." My Mom answered that made them laughed. I glared at Kuya's best friend. Tumaas naman ang kilay nya sa akin.

"Good evening, Tita, Tito." I nodded at them before getting a little food.

"Good evening Hija, as pretty as always!" Tita Marian said that made me smile.

"How's law school, Bryan?" My Father asked Kuya's best friend.
