Shattered Diamond (Special Series)

CAPITULO 1

I snapped and threw my phone on the bed. What the hell is he thinking? Anong akala nya sakin malandi? He's always jealous, palibhasa kasi gawain nya.

Tsk. Takot sa sariling multo.

Binagsak ko ang katawan sa malambot na kutson. I’m suppressing my tears.

“Lagi na lang ba ganito?” I asked myself sabay punas sa luhang dahan-dahan dumadausdos sa aking pisngi.

I curled and cried silently.

Nagising ako sa malakas na katok ng mga kasambahay ko. “Master Azi.” Tawag nito kasabay ng may kalakasang katok sa pinto. “Master Azi.” Muli nitong tawag.

I sit up and blink twice saka ko chineck kung may muta ba ko. I sleep in my silent cry last kaya di na ko nagugulat na may muta ako.

Muli naman akong tinawag ng katulong na patuloy pa rin kumakatok sa pinto para magising ako. “Master Azi.”

“Wait.” I hoarse.

I stood and went to the door. I opened it a bit and saw the maid's face. “What?” I frowned.

“It’s 9:30 in the morning, Master Azi. You told us to wake you up before 10.” Litanya ng katulong.

Oh! Shit nakalimutan ko pala, may group work pala kami. “Thanks.” I muttered and closed the door.

I grabbed my cell phone from the bed and checked the messages. Grabe tadtad na yung chats.

I chat them na mag-aasikaso na ko. And I’ll be there in almost an hour. Saka ako pumasok ng banyo at naligo.

After I took a bath, I put my clothes on and prepared myself to leave. I put my things I need on the mini backpack I chose and grabbed my laptop and cellphone charger.

I booked a grab dahil male-late na ko sa call time. Magpapa-drop off na lang ako sa malapit na area. Baka kasi isipin nila mayabang ako.

After I reached my destination, I gave the payment to the driver and went out. Pagbaba ko pa lang ng grab car, nakita ko na agad sila sa plaza.

I approached them and as I expected, Rodin would be pissed. “Grabe, ang bilis mo ah. Akala ko dito na kami matutulog eh.” He was nonchalantly irritated.

“Kakagising ko pa lang matutulog na kayo?” I playfully asked.

His face shows a little pissed off. Ang sarap talaga pikunin ng lalaking to. I laughed silently in my mind.

“Kaya pala may tuyong laway ka pa.” He retorted.

“Tama na nga yan, halos kakarating lang din nung iba.” wika ni Ate Jazz.

“Pero ako kanina pa dito.” Pagmamalaki ng lalaki.

“First time mo lang mauna.” Lacey grumbled.

“Kaya pala nangangamoy sunog na letson ka na.” I grinned at Rodin.

Natawa din yung iba at ang ilan naman ay napamura at sinulsulan pa ito. I distance myself to him dahil alam ko nang hahampasin nya ko.

“Tang ina ka wag ka makalapit-lapit sakin.” banta ng lalaki halatang napikon sa huling salita ko.

This is amusing.

“Hello.” bati ng isang lalaki samin.

He sits across from me. I shifted my gaze to him from my laptop and I found him handsome with thick eyebrows, strong nose and thin reddish lips.

However, somebody caught my attention at his left side. It's one of my block mates, who I caught blushing. Parang tanga kinikilig. Harot.

After naming interview-in ang manager ng cafe. We went to savemore to edit the details and finalize our output dahil ilalagay pa namin yun sa powerpoint.
