Chapter 4:
Vierse City
DESIRE CARMELA
The key were inside the car. Agad kong pinaharurot ang sasakyan paalis sa Mall at tinungo ang daan sa School.
Natawa na lang din ako habang tinitingnan ang sticky note na nakadikit sa rear view mirror..
To my Crazy Cousin,
Drive safely.
~Art
He's cute. I know why Heart is crazy for him.
Nakarating ako sa Gabriel Academy ng walang bumubuntot-bubtot na guard.
Hindi ko alam kung hinihintay pa rin ako nina Eros at Anteros sa Salon. Miss Ra would text me if they left already the Salon. Oh well, until now wala pang paramdam mula kay Miss Ra.
Agad kong nakita si Gabriel, my cousin. He gave me all my important papers in this school. It helps me a lot that they owned this school.
"Are you really sure about this, Carmela? You are safer here in Manila." Aniya. Nakita kong pinagmamasdan niya ang buhok ko.
"Oh well, I'm sure I might be safe for a short time. You see, I change I lil bit. Hindi nila ako makikilala agad. You know." Kibit ko ng balikat.
He touch my hair like it was some precious gold.
He smirked at me.
"You are one of the most precious flower of our family, Carmela. Be careful okay?" Ani kuya Gab.
He then hugged me.
Gusto kong ngumiti. Maswerte pa rin ako dahil meron akong pamilya na gaya nila.
Oo nga naman, Desire. Hindi lang naman si Daddy ang pamilyang laging nandyan para sayo. You have your cousins.. Arthen Ysmael Moran and Arkhael Gabriel Moran will always be your aly. Hindi ka nag-iisa. I wish Daddy would just tell me everything, para hindi na ako mahirapan pang alamin ang katotohanan.
But since he can't tell me, then I will use all my sources and my own capabilities to search for the truth.
"Gab.." I call him kahit na nasa akin naman ang atensyon niya.
"Hmm?"
"Please call me Desire from now on." I beg.
Kumalas siya sa pagkakayakap sakin.
"What are you doing, Carmela?" Kunot ang kanyang noo.
"I want to build my own Identity. I don't want to live as Carmela who resembles Sun Carmela. I want to be known as my own name. I want to be known as Desire Carmela. Can you give this one to me?"
Napabuntong hininga siya.
"Kahit anong pangalan pa ang gusto mo. You will always be our Desire Carmela Moran Harris.. our Crazy little rose.. Our precious cousin. And it will never change. Okay?" Napangiti ako sa kanya.
"You should go, bago ka pa madatnan ni kupido dito." Medyo natatawa niyang sabi.
I remember calling Eros, Cupid.. noong nagsumbong ako kay Gab bago ko pa gawin ang mga plano ko.
