About Me and Seven

O2

"Ate! Can we watch Chef?!" my little brother asked when he entered the movie room.

It was a Saturday night and Papa's busy cooking in the kitchen. Umuwi kasi ang kasambahay namin sa farm kaya't siya ang nagluluto. Daddy is not yet home but he's talking to Papa on the phone. He's on loudspeaker habang naghihiwa si Papa ng ingredients.

"Kee, we watched that for five times already. Let's watch something else." sagot ko habang inaayos ang popcorn sa mesa. Sumimangot ang kapatid ko at nanahimik sa tabi.

I chuckled and pinched his cheeks.

"Fine. Let's watch it after Ate finishes her movie okay?" agad namang lumiwanag ang mukha niya at tumango. Yuki is easy to please lalo na kapag napagbibigyan sa mga gusto. Napakakulit nga lang talaga minsan.

"What are you going to watch?"

"Wild Child." sagot ko saka pinindot ang play button. My brother made a face.

The movie started and I quietly sat while eating my popcorn. Si Yuki naman panay ang comment sa mga nakikita. He's probably just doing it to piss me off and stop me from watching so we can move on to Chef. He likes the movie a lot dahil bukod sa may batang bida, may pagkain.

One time, he even asked Daddy if we can buy a food truck and sell sandwiches while on a roadtrip. Hindi ko siya pinansin at sinakyan lang sa mga tinatanong.

Somewhere in the middle of the movie, my phone vibrated from a text. My messages were on preview mode kaya't nang makita ko ang pangalan ni Ali sa banner with a message that says, "ang pogi!!" agad na akong umiling.

It's probably one of her crushes again. Ang babaeng iyon, napakaraming crush! and I'm sure he's not talking about Tito Mark 'cause she didn't send it through dms of our twitter fan accounts.

I was about to ignore it muna and focus on the movie when another message came in. This time it was from Seven. There's two messages, the last one reads;

"what do you think?"

Agad kong nilapag ang popcorn at binuksan ang phone. Sev sent a pic first. Isang beach themed party photo and then the words "what do you think?"

I typed in my reply.

Ako:
cool! 😎
so you're doing beach party?

Sev:
yup!
is that okay?

Ako:
why are you asking me? Hahaha that's your party.
but it's okay! miss the beach.

The last time we went to a beach nung umuwi pa kami sa farm during summer vacation. Nung birthday ko naman kasi hindi na kami natuloy sa gala dahil may mga pasok pa.

We are going to celebrate Sev's birthday here in Manila at one of the Seo's family resort. Pretty sure it's going to be fun because Tito Ten loves parties and planning. Noong bumisita kasi kami sa bahay nila after the photoshoot, ang dami niyang gustong gawin.

Sev:
alright.
beach then.

Sunod kong binuksan yung message na galing kay Aleyna.

Ali:
ghoooorl! omg!!
nakita mo ig story ni Sev?
ang pogi!!

Kumunot ang noo ko saka dumiretso sa instagram. He posted two stories. Ang isa ay short video nina Tito Johnny and Tito Ten with cute little Hana and the other one is a close up selfie of him. He's looking seriously at the camera with his head tilted sideways. At this angle, you can see how much he resembles Tito Johnny.
