Chapter19-Hey Stephen

"It's me." he said.

I don't really have time for him. I just ignored him all the way.

"Totoo nga yung usapan. You really are a brat."

Fuck. This guy better evaporate before I loose every temper I can hold.

I step on my cigarette and walked away.

I woke up the next day with the Paredes', Angela and the Mint guy inside the room.

I sit straight as Clark told us the doctor will arrive any moment. Show time!

The doctor arrived after some minute.

"How are you feeling, Miss Diamond?" he asked as he entered.

"Hopefully fine." I answered fakely.

I hope this will get over soon. I want to puke on their fake faces right now! Urgh. Damn them.

After the doctor explained to them everything which I told him to tell, they were all very shocked.

"I.. I- I have no idea you were suffering so much. I'm sorry princess, I promise we'll make it up to you." the mother of Paredes said.

Yuck. Like I would want to be with you.

"Don't stress yourself too much m-mom. I'm fine, really. I've known this for a while now, I'm just waiting for 'that' day." I said sounding like a real cancer patient would say after knowing their disease is terminal.

"No, simula ngayon sa mansyon ka titira." said the Clark Sr.

"A dying person still getting orders from her dad. Life's really ironic." I said.

"It's not that, princess. I'm not giving you orders, gusto lang naming bumawi sa mga pagkakataong wala ka sa mansyon. We promise to be the best family you can ever imagine."

Pwe! One more line like that, swear I will puke!

"That's so sweet d-dad. But I would like to be on my own place, I hope you understand. But I promise to always come by the mansion every now and then."

"Hayy, okay fine. Kelan ka ba namin napilit sa ayaw mo? Hehe."

That moment you threw me off this country!!

"Yes, right. Uhm, can we go now? I have stuffs to finish." I said.

"Okay, okay princess, maiwan muna namin kayo ni Chin para kausapin yung management sa bills mo, okay? We'll be right back." said Clark Rashi

"Okay, just take your time." I said then smiled.

I can't believe how fast they've forgot how they hated me six years ago. I'm really fucking mad with them! Wait for me, I'm gonna get you all, one-by-one, little-by-little until you can't remember anything but the feeling you've made me feel six damn years ago!

"So how are you, C-Chin?" I asked Angela so that I'd know more stuffs I need.

"I'm really good, unni. By the way, hindi ka na ba marunong mag-tagalog? I've observed since you arrived hindi ka na nag-tatagalog." said her.

"I can, actually. It's just that my job requires a lot of English talking with some foreign patients and their families so when I try speaking tagalog, it's slang, so better not." I explained. They know that I've finished nursing and is a nurse now at a private hospital at Houston, Texas.

"Oh, kaya pala. Hehe." she said. It's obvious that she's distant. Why shouldn't her? She chose to take those Paredes' side rather than her own best friend. I see the same Angela six years ago, a damn tail to a Paredes. Patethic.
