Ito rin ang pinag kukuhanan nya ng lakas ng loob upang magpatuloy at mas lalong maging matagumpay para sa kanyang paghihiganti. Revenge for the people who destroy their family.
"Ish someone's looking for you" my friend Zandra told me while she's at the door
"Ok comin' right up" and from that I walk from the bedroom to our door to look for that person who's looking for me.
Pagtingin ko sa pintuan agad na nagsilay ang ngiti sa labi ko dahil sa taong naghahanap sakin. This person is the person I badly wanted to meet right now. My brother, the reason why I'm still holding on and keep on living. The man of every girls dream, the reason why every girls cry. And this man is my brother, my big brother actually. Ang lalaking dahilan kung bakit ako parating napapaaway noong nag aaral pa kami dahil sa mga pinapa iyak nyang babae at napagkakamalan akong girlfriend but who wouldn't thinks so? in his phone my "sweet" pictures with him is his lock screen and home screen wallpaper so who wouldn't think so?!
"Oppa! I thought matagal ka pa uuwe? You surprise me again! Come in, come in." I said after hugging him tight. How I miss to be with this man in front of me.
"Just some change of plans, why? you don't wanted to see me?" he said with those puppy goddamn looking eyes like a disappointed person who isn't loved by his girlfriend like seriously? Nagpapaawa lang sya sakin at naglalambing dahil malamang miss na nya ko. How sweet of him.
"Of course I miss you so much, but seriously I don't expect you to come here and be here today".
"Ehem" Zandra said. Looking at the man in front of us intently. It's bad, not him Zandra please not him.
"Oh! I forgot to introduce her. This is Zandra my friend, Zandra this is Devin Isaac" I said rolling my eyes because this is freaking boring.
As we walk our way to the living room my brother is beside me pouting his mouth kala niya siguro madadala niya ko sa paawa epek niya alam ko na yan. May kailangan siya.
"So, tell me what do you want?"
"You really know me huh? Ok! I'll get down to the business, I want you to attend a shareholders party later. Be my date" he said smirking.
"Oppa! Are you out of your mind? the hell I care about that fucking older party. No! Never! Not gonna happen" I hysterically instated. Boring yang party na yan for sure.
"Really Ish? You're going to challenge me?" that. Never in my wildest dream would I want to challenge my brotha' neverrrrr!. So by that words coming from his mouth alam kona. Wala akong choice.
"My ghad! Sorry but I didn't imagine that this how you talk to your boyfriend Ish. Para akong nasa States nakaka tuwa kayo panoorin" Zandra's looking at us like we are really some sort of entertainment to her . Sabay namin siyang tinignan ng kapatid ko, we didn't know that she's still here watching us talk or should I say watch me hysterically confront my o so bratty brother.
"I'm sorry, Miss. My princess didn't really learn how to apply manners in her daily life I hope you're not having a hard time talking to her" he said that like I'm really a spoiled little girl who loves to give hard time to people.
Namumuro na sakin 'tong lalaki na to eh. My friend just laugh at that statement because she knows na matatamaan sya saakin oras na umalis 'tong lalaki na to pag dinugtungan nya pa yon.
While I'm exhaling a large amount of carbon dioxide because of this brat in front of me I'm already thinking about the dress I should wear later. Siyempre sasama na rin naman ako e lulubusin ko na dapat maganda ako hindi pwedeng kapatid ko lang ang mapapansin. I love spotlight when they serve it to me, but I like my private life also.
"I'm always telling you that you should just let your secretary to do that already! Ako na lang palagi ang sinasama mo sa ganyan. What time are we going to buy my gown?" I told him like I'm bored, but I'm actually excited to buy a gown.
I heard my friend and my brother laugh but I just gave them a death glare in return kasi kahit gaano ko ito kaayaw wala akong magagawa. I can be a bad-ass but not as bad as I can challenge my brother, that day will never happen. He's a man of his word and that is also the reason why I still don't have a boyfriend at my age of 25 because of this man, you can't blame me he's my role model kung walang katulad nya o kahit katiting ng ugali nya I don't think I can be with that man.
"Go on and prepare. I already bought you a dress, baby" paglalambing nya pa saakin na inirapan ko lang kala mo talaga madadaan nya ko sa ganyan niya eh. Well nadaan niya nga ako.
"That! I told you to stop calling me baby. I'm not your baby!" paghihisterikal ko na tinawanan niya lang
"Nah, You can't dictate me."
"Omyghad! Such a nice view. How sweet of you I hope I also have someone who'll gonna taka care of me." pakikisabat ulit ng kaibigan ko.
"See? Ish, she told me I'm sweet while you always tell me that I'm corny" he said like he's really broken. the heck!
Padabog akong umalis sa harap nila na tinawanan lang niya. I hate the way he does that but I also love it because I know, I know that that is his only way or he think his only way to fulfill our parents absence in our life.
I also know that it's his way to stay close to me ang hindi niya alam sapat na ang presensiya at pag mamahal niya sa akin para punuan lahat ng nawala sa amin not that we are in lack of money, power or things because we are not, after our parents died all our assets and wealth are transferred to us and because he's the oldest and at the right age that time all the burdens became his.
Lahat 'yon sinalo niya at hindi niya ako hinayaang maramdaman ang hirap at problema ng kompanya namin gusto niyang manatili akong isang estudyante na walang ibang iniisip kung hindi ang pag-aaral at pakikipag kaibigan lang. But I can't. I can't just watch him study is ass at day and bury his head at company's paperwork at night.
While I'm in my reminiscing moment I heard a knock at my bathroom door and someone talking but I can't really hear because of the shower so I off the showers' faucet and walk to the door so I can hear that person clearly.
"Why?"
"Make it fast it's already 6pm the party is going to start at 7pm I don't want to be late" with his serious tone I don't think I have a right to disobey this man.
"Yes Sir! So please can you go out already I'm done naman na eh" and after saying that I already heard his footstep slowly fading until he already lock the door.
After looking at my supposed to be gown I make an O shape because this black dress is fucking stunning from its tube type down to its slim and for sure hapit na hapit to sa balakang ko at pati na rin ang slit neto na kitang kita ang malapad at maputi kong hita, really my brother knows me best! I'm so excited to wear it.
I finish my dark aura make up it contains a dark brown eyeshadow glowing because of the glittery light brown eyeshadow partnered with my red lipstick that made my face look like intimidating, dapat lang kasi kakapit lang ako sa kuya ko at wala talaga akong balak makipag usap sa kanila. Also for the last part my 5 inches stiletto and voila! perfect.
I grab my things and put it in my pouch then dumiretso na ko sa baba dahil alam kong uusok na sa galit ang kapatid ko pag hindi pa ko nagmadali ngayon.
Dumiretso na kami sa kanyang white lamborghini at umalis na after for about 40mins driving we already head to our destination sa malayo pa lang kita ko na ang dami ng reporters and media sobrang liwanag dahil sa flashes ng mga camera nila. This is it! the game of being the princess of Osi Group of Company is about to begin. Tinignan ko ang aking kapatid na mukha namang cool lang sa nangyayari well ano pa nga bang aasahan ko sa kanya it's normal for him to attend this kind of events.
He look at me intently so I know that his word that about to say is really serious. "Prepare yourself Duchess, the person who you badly wanted to meet is here that's why I told you to come with me. But.. don't ever dare made unnecessary action I'm warning you Duch." my blood immediately boil. I've been looking forward to this day for 8 years. This is just the start of my appearance Don Gustavo.
