LUEL'S POV :

I watch her panicking as she step out of this bus.

Hahaha

To be honest pinag tritripan ko lang talaga sya and hindi naman ako galit sa ginawa nyang pag sisinungaling kanina.. i dont know i like how she acts around me.

I checked my phone

Angelica :

My mom wants you to join dinner. Tsk

Susunduin ko pa sana si gia.

Pero pumunta ka nalang.

"Ay eto na pala si luel!" Masayang sabi ng mommy nya. Si tita angie

"Goodafternoon po" sabi ko at binigay ko sa kanya yung binili kong pang dessert.

"Thank you iho... Pababa na si angelica intayin mo lang" sabi nya, ngumiti ako at tumango

Bumaba na si angelica and i faked my smile while looking at her.. as well her smile too.

I kissed her cheeks before we sit down into the chairs.

Nandito kami ngayon sa dining table nila.

"So.. how are you two? Just asking.. parang minsan ka nalang kasi makadalaw dito iho.." sabi ni tita angie

"Pasensya na po bukas po pupunta ulit ako" sabi ko

Ngumiti naman sya

"Mas pumupunta pa yata araw araw dito yung bestfriend nya kaysa sayo" pabiro nyang sabi

but im sure naman na nag da-date kayo after ng classes diba?" Sabi ni tita angie

We faked our smile again and continue to play safe sa mga sagot namin kay tita angie

"Iho how's your dad?" Tanong naman nya

"He is fine tita angie" sabi ko

"No need to call me 'tita' call me 'mom'" sabi nya

"Mommy." Pag tawag sa kanya ni angelica

"Whatt?? He is your soon to be boyfreind iha, im sure my daughter just have some 'other' priorities masyado kasing obedient sa mga bilin ng dad nya" sabi ni tita angie

"Ah okay lang po. Im not in a hurry and i can wait for your daugther answer."

Kung may makukuha ako

Napangiti sya ng sobra doon

Natapos na yung dinner at sinabi ni tita naihatid ako hanggang gate ni angelica.

Nakalabas na kami ngayon

"Malapit ko nang sabihin kela mommy. Pasensya na at nadamay kita." Sabi nya pa

"I think you should say it now angelica. You should overcome this fear para next time it wont get you in trouble" sabi ko dito

Tumango tango lang sya ti-nap nya lang shoulder ko at nag paalam na din ako

Sinarado nya na yung gate and i walk away

We faked this whole thing

It hurts to know that she likes someone else and i dint even get to say it to her but its fine as long as she's with someone she loved.

I liked her.. pero sometimes we need to accept things.

As i was walking i was about to get my phone when somebody speak behind me.

"Luel."

And when i turned around its, obviously her brother, Adrian.

"You know our mom expect so much for you and angelica" he said.

"Alam ko, but you need to accept her you all need to accept her for what she really is." Seryosong sabi ko sa kanya

"You two are making a big problem." Sabi nya pa

I am so disbelief in this guy.

"Adrian that's your sister-- kapatid mo sya adrian and as a brother you should understand her and accept her.. why are you beling like this?" Inis na tanong ko sa kanya

"Because alam mo kung gaano ka init ang mata samin ng kamag anak namin thats why they have to move here. Alam kong pag uusapan nanaman ng masasamang salita si mommy lalo na pag nalaman nila kung ano talaga si angelica." Sabi nya

Umaakyat inis ko sa taong to.

"So? Mas i-isipin mo pa ba ang sasabihin ng iba than to accept your sister? Before mo intindihin yung masasakit na salita na matatanggap nyo sa iba you should also know kung anong mararamdaman ng 'kapatid' mo kapag narinig nya yang mga tumatakbo sa mapahusga mo ding pag iisip." Sabi ko rito

"Listen-- i am trying to protect my familly reputation.. and i know you liked her in the first place--"

"i did.. pero i accepted her, i accepted that she will never gonna like me because SHE'S lesbian and she is now dating the one she likes. You also need to understand that adrian.. isipin mo yung nararamdaman ng kapatid mo dahil ang mahalaga kahit hinuhusgahan kayo ng ibang tao hindi mo hinuhusgahan ang sarili mong pamilya. Alam mo bang she ask me for a favor na mag kunwari kami.. about this whole thing.. pero sa totoo lang she was trying to change her self but i said hindi mo kayang ibahin kung ano talaga sya.. kaya we faked this whole thing and during that she manage to tell her feelings to the person she likes and they are now dating.. ang totoo hinahanda nya lang sarili nyang sabihin sa inyo kung ano talaga sya" Sabi ko sa kanya

"So please kung ako sayo kausapin mo kapatid mo help her say kung ano talaga sya" sabi ko sa kanya

He was listening.

But i was so disappointed sa sunod nyang sinabi.

"Mag babago din sya."

Wala kang kwentang kapatid.
