She's dating the Scout master

Prologue

Anne's POV

I was only 16 when my parents died. Ever since then I wasn't the old me, my friends had stopped hanging out with me and the rest of my family seemed to outcast me, I didn't know what to react when my parents died I didn't cry or do anything I just stared at their coffin blankly while the rest mourn. Believe me I was sad too, no child should ever experience the loss of their parents and I hate the feeling of that.

After a few weeks of staying at my aunt Cas she received a phone call from grandma, they were talking on the phone while I ate my breakfast cereal in the dining room along with my other cousins.

"What does it feel like to not have parents anymore?" My cousin Louis asked me, his 10 and I understand that he doesn't get how sarcasm works.

"Louis!" Mary, my older cousin scolded her little brother for being so close minded and had no regard.

"What! I was only asking." He shot back to his older sister.

"It's fine Mar, honestly I don't even know what it feels like." I answered Louis question.

Just then aunt Cas came in the dining room and looked at me.

"Pack your bags, your moving with Grandma." She told me before walking away.

I didn't get enough time to process what just happened.

"But Grandma is in the..." Louis words fainted at the realization.

"Philippines." Mary finished the sentence.

I gulp, how bad can it be? I visited the Philippines once with my parents and I was only 9 years old, I love the Philippines with their very tropical nature.

Before I could blink I stood awkwardly in the airport waiting for whoever is going to get me, Jesus it's hot in this country.

"Ah, Cha?! Charizze Anne?!" I heard a voice coming from a lady and her English accent seems pretty outdated.

I saw her and she saw me and then she came running to me, and when she was near enough she flung herself to me before chuckling slightly.

"Oh, my baby." She pulled away and cupped my cheeks pressing them together with her hands.

"Hello, abuela." I greeted her.

She let's go me and we walked to where her car is, and when we get there it wasn't a car as I expected.

"This is a motorcycle, people use it to go to places!" She said before hoping in.

"Come on in, Mija!" She invited me and I reluctantly got in.

I only knew some Filipino words because my mother never got to teach me about her culture, my dad was an American while my mom was a Filipino so that makes me half of those.

"Welcome to Bacolod, apo!" My grandma said as we look around the place we were driving by.

So many tall buildings but unlike in America there were so many and so tall but this would be okay.

"When we get home I'll introduce you to you cousins." She put her arm around me before pulling me in as she kiss my hair.

I smiled a bit feeling the warmth of how my grandma miss me, I miss her too even to I rarely remember her since I was so little when we visit here.

After a while I was so lost in my own thoughts that I didn't even realize that we have arrived, her home is big but not mansion like, I like it.

The insides is even better, so many decorations and you would always know that it's a Filipino house when there's a huge papa juses statue or picture in every house that is surrounded by candles and other Gods.

After a week of spending time with my Lola as I call her now, I have learned a lot of Filipino words thanks to my cousin May.

She's a good kid, just a year younger than me but she's very kind and helpful towards anyone, she also told me about her LDR boyfriend Denver who lives in Bataan and that someday they'll meet.

May makes everything better, she makes me forget about my past and the sadness I felt, she makes me wanna have a life again she's the best cousin ever.

"Oh, anak Tinola favorite mo." Lola placed a huge bowl of chicken soup on the center of the table.

"Mm, mukang masarap la!" May said excitedly.

"Oh, sa up coming school year gusto kong asikasohin mo si Cha ha wag mong pababayaan." Bilin ng Lola.

"Yes po la." Sagot ni May.

It's been just us since I came here, Hindi naman boring kasi nandyan  naman si may at si Lola, I feel like nabuo ulit yung pamilya ko.

Okay, okay, time skip first day of grade 11 and not gonna lie I'am scared but I have may with me.

"Halika ate punta tayo sa homeroom mo." She led me to my room.

"Wag kanang matakot ate, nasa grade 10 lang Ako." Sabi niya.

I felt relief to have her, kasi alam ko na nakaka frustrating na mag Isa kalang...walang kakilala.

"May, andito kana Pala! Tara hinahanap kana nila Joan." May Bata na kasing edad ni May Ang sumalubong samin.

"Nako Jas pasensya na kailangan ko kasing asikasohin ate ko e, transferee kasi Siya." Sagot ni May.

"Nako wag na kaya Kona Sarili ko." Bulong ko sakanya.

"Pero, te bilin ng Lola wag daw kita Iwan."

"Malaki na Ako May, I think I can manage on my own kaya Sige na. "

Not long after umalis din Siya at Ako ay mag Isa na naman muli, I won't admit out loud pero I like it better when I'm alone kasi tahimik lang yung buhay ko I mean... don't get me wrong I love Lola and May, but I miss my mom and dad so much.

I was cut off in my thoughts when someone bumped into me, something hard like a brick.

"Fuck." He said quietly.

"I'm sorry, I didn't see you." I look up at him and man is he gorgeous.

I felt like I was barbie and I finally found my Ken because my exes were Ryan, his perfect senior scout uniform made him look tough and strong which he probably is already I mean who am I right?

"Excuse me." He said brushing something invisible off his uniform and walked away.

Okay Ang sama naman ng ugali.

I rolled my eyes and sighed as I waited for my classmates to arrive hopefully I survive this senior high school life.
