"Sure ka ba talagang uuwi ka?" my kuya said "Oo nga, I already talk to my professor, I am working on my Thesis Kuya, that is why I am doing this" Sagot ko sakaniya, Kuya is hesitant for me to go back in the Philippines because He is overprotective about me
"Siguro nga, para mabantayan naman kita dito" Kuya said " Nathan, I am 19 for christ sake" Yes I am 19 and I am third year Medical student in Harvard University and I actually a Exchange student from Harvard to this specific Universities, I volunteered because of my Thesis which is about Love
"SO? 19 or 30 you are still my baby " "Whatever kuya" My Kuya Nathan is 23 years old and he is 3rd year Business Management student, Tama ang nababasa ninyo I go to school early because my brain function ver well that is why
"Be safe in your flight, ako ang susundo sa iyo" Agad ko namn pinatay ang phone ko, I hope I could really do this thesis successfully. I can't wait to be in the Philippines again, I don't have a memory about my Childhood perks of being a genius. My only work was to study study study because that is what my dad wants and If you ask me if I am tired, yes I am but I don't have a choice I am just a child they are my parents
After 2 weeks of going back to the Philippines nothing really happens, I am just in my room and Studying and sometimes painting, atsaka wala din naman dito palagi sila mama at papa kahit nung dumating ako they are busy and sanay na ako, Ang kasama ko lang dito is si Kuya, Although hindi naman palagi dahil may buhay din naman ang kuya ko
Nasa kwarto ako ngayon studying hanggang sa nakaramdam ako ng gutom kaya bumaba muna ako, Isa lang ang maid namin sa bahay at Tagaluto at Tagalinis lang siya our parents thought us to wash our own clothes and we shouldn't be dependent of maids,
Pumunta ako ng kusina para humanap ng makakain and sure thing may pagkain nga, masarap magluto si Yaya Alf
Kumuha ako ng adobo at tinapay, masarap kayang ipalaman ang Adobo sa tinapay
Habang kumakain ako ay nagulat naman ako ng dumating si Kuya na may kasamang apat na lalake, I'm not good into bunch of people kaya minsan pag maraming tao sa bahay, I'll just stay in my room
Aakyat na sana ako ng makita ako ni kuya and his friends
"Nath, nagugutom ka??" tanong ni Kuya
"Yup" sabi ko sakaniya
"Sino siya bro, hindi ko naman alam na may kasama ka palang binibini dito" He's blonde weird hair and Chinito eyes are giving me cringe "Hi, I'm Mino" I just look at him with confusion in my eyes
"Not that I care" Sagot ko naman, tumawan naman yung dalawang lalake sa likod yung isa is a Tall dark and handsome man, Other the the three he looks more mature and subtle yung isa naman is He is cute actually, he is prim and propper the feminine type of guy While the one beside my kuya is I think the strict kind of person, He looks like my dad but in a good way,
"Shut Up Mino, guys this my lil sis, Nathaly" Kuya said "Nathaly this are my friends, Mino, Jacob, Alli and Andres" so that is Andres the one that looks like my dad
I just turn around at umakyat na, It's awkward, I don't really like that feeling
It's my first day going to school now, I just had my schedule and I am touring myself around I don't really need anyone to tour me because basically I'm good in directions, I don't know pinalaki lang talaga akong independent kaya I just do things on my own, Wala din naman kasi si Kuya He is busy, he is still a Sarmiento our family is famous here in the Philippines we owns Hotels and even Hospitals and schools
Habang naglalakad ako ay nag oobserve din ako ng mga tao sa paligid, I see many students in the are studying, playing, even doing Tiktoks and also there are couple around, I stop and I look at them I observe how they look at each other, touch each other, I don't really believe in saying that love is magical because love can be explain through science, Love is just a chemical to our body, in the brain the hypothalamus to be exact, that is why for me, Love isn't magical
"Hey" someone just talk behind my back and it's my dad the younger version HAHAH, I am actually joking
"Hey" sabi ko naman
"Nathan's sister right?? the exchange student from harvard??" Tanong ni Mr. Andres, I just nod to him
"Your brother told me to get you" He is said with a serious tone, only dad can make me shiver like this, and all I did was to follow him, pumasok kami sa isang room, I think this is the office of the student council. Nakita ko si Kuya na nakaupo sa Sofa together with his friends
"Hi Nathaly!!" bati naman sa akin ni Mino, I smiled as a response
"Ngumiti siya!!" sabi naman neto
"The last time I check, tao ako" sabi ko naman at umupo sa tabi ni Kuya
" I still can't believe that you're a 19 years old and a 3rd Year medical student" sabi naman ni Jacob, hindi ko alam kong anong e rereact ko sa sinabi niya
"Now believe it" sabi ko nalang sakaniya
"Ginawa niyo naman tambayan tong office ko" sabi ni Andres, so I think he is the President of Student Council well It suits him
"Ang ingay sa Cafeteria bro" sabi naman nung Alli
"Kumain ka muna Nath" sabi ni Kuya sa akin
"Next time kuya you don't have to get me, you know the reason why I came here, for my thesis, I need to observe" sabi ko naman sakaniya
"Naninugurado baka may aaligid sa iyo dito sa Univ." I rolled my eyes here we are again with those boys prob.
Simula nun, hindi na talaga ako pinapakuha ni kuya, that's what I like about him kong sinabi kong ayoko, ayaw niya na talaga pero kahit ganun he texts me about my whereabouts
I'm here in a coffee shop, I'm obsess with coffees I don't know it just make me calm especially when my Anxiety hit me, As I was writing my Introduction in thesis, nagulat ako ng may umupo sa harapan ko
Palagi talaga kaming nagkikita sa isang lugar this past few days
"Andres" sabi ko
"Hi, I saw you that's why I sit here" sabi niya there is something in those eyes the way he stares at me, kaya I sip my coffee again to stop staring at him
"Thesis?" He ask, "Yes" He smiled that's the first time I saw him smile, he always this strict looking dad everytime I see him
"You smiled" I said "The last time I check, I'm still human" kumunot ang noo ko na tiningnan siya "That's my line" I said between laughs
"I'm a fast learner" He said, he looks at his watch and I think he was about to leave
"That's my cue I need to go" Tumayo siya at tumalikod pero nagulat uli ako ng humarap uli siya and said "Can I get your number?" he said and I just froze.
