Chapter XVI

Perseus' POV
                "You don't have a choice but to follow me!" galit na saad ni tanda "Gusto ko within a month or two may progress na" dagdag pa nito. "You know what I can do so you better follow me" ani pa niyo, yeah I know but I'm not the same Perseus that you know, I said that to myself.

                "Okay. I'll do it" matapang na saad ko, he smiled at me "That's my boy" he said then ruffled my hair, I rolled my eyes at him. "I want an everyday update" saad nito "I'm busy" I answered, he rolled his eyes at me "Everyday." he said with finality "I have school, means I have activities and projects to do" bored na saad ko. "Fine. Every week" ani nito, I didn't respond, bahala siya I won't follow him. "Is that all?" tanong ko "I have tons on my plate" dagdag ko pa "Yeah, you may go now." he said I didn't bother saying goodbye, I left without giving a word.

Takeshi's POV
            I woke up early the next morning, yung chill-numan nauwi sa pagkawasted sila kuya. For sure malala mga hangover nila Kuya Ry, Kuya Lio, Ei, Kuya Cleo, laklakin ba naman at ubusin ang black label at bacardi eh and for sure we're stuck here and just lay wherever part of this house because of their hangover.

           "Hyung" tawag ko kay Kuya Flam na siyang nagluluto sa kusina "Good morning" bati nito "Good morning too, hyung" bati ko pabalik. "Aga mo nagising" ani niya "No hangover?" he added, umiling lang ako "Konti lang ininom ko kagabi" sagot ko and he just nodded.

No one's POV
         "We've received a email, it's about last night" ani ng isang lalaking kakapasok lang "What's in the email?" tanong ng bagong dating, the latter didn't respond as he showed them so that they can see it by themselves.

          "Fuck!!" he uttered "Call them now!" he commanded.

Third Person's POV
           Weekend passed so fast. It's full of bickering, bantering, eating and many more things that the family of fourteen can't do since all of the older siblings are busy with their work. They're back to reality now, the kids we're dropped off in school while the rest are in their individual workplace. Allistar, Phython and Maximus, as usual, sent her to her room before heading off to their classes as well.

          "Leigh" Francis called as soon as she entered the room, Ryleigh was started because of a sudden call to her and when she looked who called her she's now shocked but turned into a grin when she saw them, Francis and Xaviel.

         "Aga natin ah" pang aasar nito "Ano ka ba, kami lang to" ani ni Francis while flipping his imaginary long hair kaya naman natawa ang mga ito. "Anyways, Ms. Karen is not here so let's go sa cafeteria" yaya nito.

        "Kakadating ko lang, kakain agad" ani ni Ryleigh "Dali naaa" pagpupumilit ni Francis sa dalaga, "Libre naman ni Percy" dagdag pa nito kaya nabatukan naman ng isa "Oh, bakit nadamay ako bigla?" ani ni Perceus.

        "Minsan lang naman eh" Francis whines "Basta pagkain talaga" saad naman ni Xaviel "Don't act as if you don't like the idea of Percy treating us" ani ni Francis dito sabay irap kaya nabatukan nanaman siya pero this time ni Xaviel naman.

       "Ako na lang sasama sayo" saad ni Megan kaya napatingin ang apat dito. Nginitian siya ni Francis "Talaga?" excited na tanong nito kaya natuwa naman ang dalaga "Yes and my treat na din" sagot nito "Okay" ani ni Francis bago tumayo, pinanood siya ng tatlo in disbelief but bago pa siya makalapit kay Megan ay sumigaw na to "SIKE!!" he shouted bago bumalik sa tatlo. Ang tatlo maging ang ibang tao sa classroom nila ay nagpipigil ng tawa pero ang walang hiyang Francis ay may malapad na ngiti.

      "Siraulo ka talaga" natatawang saad ni Xaviel "Sorry not sorry" ani ni Francis sabay flip ng imaginary long hair niya. "Tara na nga baka kung ano pa gawin mo" yaya nito bago hinigit si Francis at hinigit naman ni Francis si Ryleigh then she pulls Perseus with her, chain reaction kumbaga.

       The four walked in the cafeteria, as usual all eyes on them. Simula noong nakasama niya ang tatlo ay lagi na sila pinagtitinginan, probably because of the three men. Ryleigh just arrived at school so she's still full, Perseus stayed with her since busog pa din siya but he let the two use his card.

       The two arrived, usual breakfast meal lang ang binili nila tapsilog and tocilog and since alam nilang busog pa ang dalawa ay drinks na lang binilu nila sa mga to. "Hot choco for Leigh and hot coffee for Percy" ani ni Francis sabay baba ng drinks sa harap ng dalawa while Xaviel hand Perseus his card. "Thanks" Xaviel said, Perseus just nodded.
