"Wanna go out?" I asked Isabella. I just came home and am still wearing my uniform pero ang nasa isip ko nanaman ay ang umalis.

She turned to look at me from folding my clothes on the floor. "Saan tayo pupunta?"

"Saan mo ba gusto?" I looked at her too and couldn't help but to admire her because maganda talaga siya.  Unting ayos nalang ay mapagkakamalan mo siyang haciendera. "Let's go to the mall." I already decided where to go because parang wala siyang idea kung saan niya gustong pumunta.

I picked up my wallet and phone from my bed and headed my way out without looking back at her.

"Hindi ko pa tapos 'yong ginagawa ko." She followed me.

"I'll help you with that later." I told her even though I really don't know how to fold clothes. But then halted because I just realized that we don't have a service. "Isabella, is my mother here?" I whispered.

How ridiculous that I don't even know if my mom was around. Mga ilang weeks ko na rin kasi siyang hindi nakikita. But I think that was better because whenever we cross paths, sigawan lang ang nangyayari.

"Oo, tulog." She answered.

"How about her driver?"

"Si Kuya Lando? Oo, bakit?"

"Okay, let's go." I pulled her wrist and we searched for the driver.

"Hindi ba magagalit ang mommy mo?" She nervously asked while she settled down beside me in the car.

"Bakit, malalaman niya ba?" I raised a brow and stared at the driver through the rearview mirror. "Hindi naman, diba, Kuya Lando?" I smiled a little.

"Hindi, madam." He hesitantly replied—scratching the back of his head.

"Good." I leaned back and waited until we reached the nearest mall.

My lips twitched to the side because I just realized that I never went shopping since my first day here even though I have my father's credit card. It has been on rest for a long time. Deserve niyang magasgasan ulit.

Isabella thanked the driver before she tailed me. "I'll buy you clothes." I told her.

I felt her little panic. "H-Ha!? Wag na! Marami naman akong damit! Hindi ko na kailangan!" She hurriedly walked to catch up.

"Whatever, Isabella." I rolled my eyes because even if she liked it or not, bibilhan ko siya. I'll play dress up with her like a doll.

She slowed down on her walk again but I could still feel her from behind so I'm good with that dahil hindi pa naman niya ako tinakasan.

"Hi, welcome ma--" My brow shot up because of the sudden haltation of the sales lady who approached us upon entering the boutique.

I turned to where she was looking and irritation quickly rose up to my chest. "She's with me." Mataray kong sabi sa kanya at hinablot 'yong kamay ni Isabella because she was looking at her with disapproval.

Why was she looking at her like that? E, mas maganda naman si Isabella sa kanya kahit na patong-patong na make up na 'yong nasa mukha niya.

"Grab everything you want." I told Isabella as I sat down and crossed my legs.

"H-Hindi ko alam." She bit her lip.

I meanly stared at her. Her hands were clasped in front and her head was bowing down too much kaya mukha siyang sikip na sikip kahit na ang dami namang space sa paligid niya.

"Okay, I'll help you." I stood up and started to browse on the racks.

We weren't shopping in a designer brand but it was a popular local clothing brand owned by a Filipino model and designer so the prices are not for everybody. And when I say that, what I mean is not everyone can afford it.
