KATH's POV
Im Kathryn Chandria Manuel Bernardo. Kath for short. 17 years old, a NEW 4th year high school student of Ford High, ( Highschool Department of the Ford University, The Famous, and most expensive school in the Philippines). Yes, im a transferee student from an exclusive school na only for girls. NBSB - No Boyfriend Since Birth. Never been kissed, never been touched and im proud of it. Im a lovable daughter and sister, a generous and supportive friend. Hindi naman ako ganun kaarte. Mahilig ako sa bags, shoes, and clothes. Sometimes girly, sometimes boyish. I dont wear make-ups, lip balm lang and im done. Im 5'6, di naman kaputian at sakto lang ang katawan ko, pero sabi nila sexy daw ako. Im not snob, friendly din naman ako, yun nga lang konti lang my lakas ng loob na kaibiganin ako. They think mataas standards ko pagdating sa mga fini-friends ko and malakas kasi kami mantrip ng mga friends ko.
About my family, I have an older brother si Kuya Kenji. My Parents are very popular, local and international. Why? My father is one of forbe's richest and most powerful people in the world. Im spoiled pagdating kay Daddy Ted. He gives me all my needs and wants. He manages our company internationally kaya minsan ko lang sya nakakasama pero he manage to find time para makabonding kami. My Mommy Min manages our company naman locally pinalaki nya ako with all the love. Mas madalas ko syang nakakasama kesa kay Daddy. My Kuya Kenji, super protective sakin nyan in fact sya ang dahilan kung bakit ako nag-aral sa school na only for girls. Ayaw nya daw may manligaw sa akin. See? mas protective and strict pa sya kesa kila Mom and Dad. He is 21 years old at college na sya taking up a Business Administration Course sa Ford University.
My Bestfriend, Julia Montes - we've been together since 1st year highschool with Yen and Kiray. 17 years old din sya. She is like a model, matangkad, maputi, maganda kaya nga halos di na mabilang mga naging boyfriend nyan. Mayaman sila Julia, actually nanalo ang family nya ng lotto kaya sila yumaman at lumuwas ng Manila from Zambales. Ngayon may sarili na rin silang business. Hindi ko ata kaya ng wala sya, she's my sister, maybe not by blood but by heart.
I am popular sa previous school ko, not because im the heiress of the Bernardo's but because I am pretty and intelligent at dahil na din siguro sa kalokohan namin ng mga kaibigan ko. No one knows about my parents, except sa mga kaibigan ko na sila Julia, Kiray at Yen. Sa school, alam lang nila na mayaman ako. Kuya decided kasi to keep our life private, gusto nya kasing mamuhay ng normal and so do i.
Talking about me being a transferee? Mahabang kwento.
It’s always been my dream na pumasok sa Ford University gaya nga ng sabi ko yan ang pinakasikat na school sa Pilipinas. But because of my very strict brother hindi ko maabot ang dream ko na yun.
March 25, kompleto kami nila mom, dad and kuya Kenji sa bahay. kinabukasan kasi birthday ko kaya umuwi si Dad at nagleave si Mom sa work.
*Flashback*
"Kuya please, 17 naman na ako bukas. Gusto ko ng maging independent. Tignan mo si Julia ohh, nakatira na sa sariling condo nya. Please im begging you." pagmamakaawa ko habang nakaupo kami with Mom and Dad sa living room.
"I said No!" sabi nya with full of authority.
"Baby, ang bata bata mo pa. Hindi kita susuportahan sa gusto mong yan. You're a girl, paano na lang kung may mangyari sayo. Im sorry but no." sabi ni Daddy
ughh bakit kasi hanggang ngayon kung ituring ako parang baby pa rin and look tinawag nanaman akong baby. Aish.
"Bunso, understand them na lang, kahit gusto kitang suportahan pag ayaw ng dalawang leon wala tayong magagawa." Mommy.
