I went home agad after school, hindi sumabay sa'kin si raven kasi may practice siya kanina so he just said na bukas nalang daw siya sasabay,
As soon as i went home, laid down my bed and closed my eyes while holding my phone and just then, a notification from my phone rings,
A new message!
I pressed onto it.
A picture has been sent, it was raven sleeping at one of the benches sa court, poor man looked so tired while the caption said, “pres, eto ba baby mo? Pasundo na daw!” it was from our classmate, dexter na kateam mate niya din.
“buysit ka, dexter!” i replied.
“is this how we're gonna be, baby?” he suddenly replies back agad.
“RAVEN?!”
“the one and only, medjo na-hurt ako dun ha! I thought sa'kin ka lang naasar.”
I might not see it but i can feel him pouting from across the screen.
“ikaw pa din naman reason e.” i messaged him without hesitating.
“kinikilig ako.” he replied fast, tangina parang bata
i chuckled from his cuteness across the screen, couldn't get any cuter.
I smiled and laid my phone down sa taas ng drawer,
I slept and woke up around dinner,
“chaaa! kakain na!” i can hear lola yaya calling.
“opooo!” i screamed while walking down the stairs, and stopped immediately.
“cha, seat down and stop screaming around the house.” mom suddenly said,
I pursued my lips, they're back from their trip huh.
“how's school, charly?” my dad confronts me, putting both his hands on the table, compressed.
“it's fine.” i answered, coldly.
“fine? that's not what i heard from Ms. Montealegre.” my mom suddenly speaks up, not glancing over me.
“what?!” my dad suddenly freaks out.
“you better fix this, charly, akala ko ba you're the new albert einstein? And the future heir sa Toronto Company!” he yells at me.
“i never said that, pa.” i lowered my head while eating, not glancing at him.
“look at me when i'm talking to you charly, ganiyan ka ba namin pinalaki ha? bastos!” he continues to scold me.
“you weren't even there as i was growing up, confident for yiu to say all those shit.” i whispered,
“ano?!” he shouts at me.
“nothing.” i said as i finished my last spoon,
“tingnan mo nga yang anak mo camilla, napaka bastos!” he shouts at my mom.
“why can't you just be just like danica ha?” she scolds at me,
Yes, danica fajardo is our companies collaborations daughter, the fajardo's. Ever since we were little, lagi na kaming pinagkumapara, taht's why our interaction sa court was burning heat.
“so gusto niyo kong maging bobo? Is that it?” i raised my voice,
“minumura mo ba ako?!” my dad stands up and held both his hand on the table aggrasively.
I looked at him coldly, not even flinching.
“what? She is stupid.” i responded.
“go to your room!” he points aggresively upstairs.
“gladly, pa, GLADLY.” i rolled my eyes as i walk out.
I went to my room crying, as i laid down, this was what my family is like. So much pressure, I never had a perfect family, i doubt that u even had a family, this was no family, this is bullshit.
But just then, my phone rings,
@pogingn3rd added you on facebook.
I turned to see who it was and it was him, raven.
A new message!
“annyeong ms. Sungit! gising ka pa ba?? :((”
If only they knew how deserving he was to replace me, it was worth the pressure, he was worth the pressure.
“tulog na.” i replied, wiping my tears.
“ay ganon, sige siguro you're dreaming of me 'no” he teases me across the screen.
“oo, nightmare nga e.” i chuckled as i continued to fade my tears away,
“rude ha! You're bullying me na crushiecakes!😠😠” he responds,
“sus, ikaw nga laging nangaasar sa'kin e!” i replied.
“that's different, inaasar kita kasi i like you, ikaw, binubulky mo ako kasi you hate me!😖😖” he replies immediately
“buti alam mo”
“i was kidding, pres naman ee!”
“thank you, raven.” i suddenly replied, it felt as if he was comforting me.
“ha? anong thank you? thank you kasi gwapo ako or thank you kasi may kaibingan kang tulad ko?”
“basta, thank you.”
“you're not making any sense, baby.”
tangina, i'm being serious na nga tapos gaganiyan ganiyan pa siya.
“buysit ka! good night na nga!”
“ee, kakausap lang natin e :(”
“tomorrow nalanggg”
“ngayon na”
“bukas”
“ngayon”
“bukas”
“sige na ngaaa, miss you na agad pres, night nightt!”
“good night.”
“see you tom! and sa dreams ko 😘”
cringe niya talaga, i chuckled.
I slept with my mouth on a smile, even tho our house wasn't as great kanina, i'm greatful that he's here, he's always here and i hope that he will always be there, i wish that he won't let gk just like he said, he'll fill up my imperfections, i know it.
