Chapter 8
It's Friday today. Every Friday, we can wear whatever we want, basta hindi sobrang revealing. I'm wearing a black long sleeve crop top partnered with my high waisted straight leg jeans and a pair of white shoes. I tucked my hair strands behind my ear, realizing I look better if it has clips. I took the hair clips that Alu gave me and nilagay 'to sa buhok ko.
I didn't realize I was staring at myself in the mirror for too long, not until I heard knocks at my door. I shouted wait before spraying perfume all over my body. I looked at myself again, I can't deny that I really look good today. I covered my bruise using my concealer. Hindi naman na masyadong masakit, hindi lang magandang tingnan.
I smiled. Kinuha ko agad ang bag ko at chineck if it's all good.
"Ang tagal mo!" I heard Trey's shout kaya binilisan ko na ang pag kilos.
Treyton would definately scold me again for being late. He offered to drive me to school today since he's free, pupunta rin daw siya sa cafe kaya sumabay na ako.
When I opened the door, Trey's grumpy face welcomed me. That made me laugh. Hindi pa naman ako late, medyo lang hehe. Agad akong napahawak sa noo ko nang pitikin niya ito.
"Late ka nanaman nyan! Ang arte kasi, napakabagal mamili ng damit!" he said while we were going downstairs.
"Paki mo" I said, still touching my forehead. Feeling ko namula! Nakakainis!
"Paalam lang ako kay dad, Trey"
He just nod his head bago lumabas ng bahay. I went to the dining area. Naabutan ko si Mom na may kausap sa phone and si Dad na umiinom ng coffee. I went near them. When Mom noticed me, she smiled widely as she ended the call.
"Baby, are you going to school na?" She talked to me like I was a five years old.
"Yeah, I came here para po magpaalam sa inyo ni Dad"
"Take care, Nixzhye" Dad simply said.
I gave my Mom a small smile. When I was about to go out, I heard my Dad.
"Ace everything"
"What?" I asked as I looked back.
"I want you to Ace everything. Don't just try, do it. Your Mom and I will be visiting your school next week, and I expect to see that you're on top"
"Why would you visit our school, Dad?"
"How can you forget Mr. Gerilo? He's a good friend of mine." He smirked and looked at me.
"Okay, Dad. Just don't approach me there. Act like I'm one of the students that you don't know"
I saw how his forehead furrowed.
"What did you just say, Nixzhye?"
"I don't want attention from people. That's it, Dad"
He sighed before getting the newspaper beside him. Agad akong lumabas dahil tiyak galit na galit na si Trey.
"What took you so long?!"
Agad niyang reklamo pagpasok ko. I just shook my head and looked at the window. I think he noticed that I'm not in the mood kaya pinaandar niya na yung car.
"Saang Cafe ka ba pupunta, Trey?" I broke the silence.
"Uh, maybe the Cafe near your school nalang since ihahatid naman kita ron"
"No!"
He looked at me with confusion before looking at the road again.
"I mean, there's no need for you to drop me at school. Sa coffee shop nalang"
