The Twin's Affair

Chapter 4: Demand

"Good Morning sunshineeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Whoah!" I greeted the day with that. Ang gaan lang sa pakiramdam na hindi galit sayo ang kapatid mo. :DD

"Not sick anymore?" - Mom

"Nah."

Of course, my mom don't know! Ano ako? Sira? Pag kinuwento ko pa sa kanya edi mapapagalitan pa ako. Mas gusto kong ako mag-isa umaayos ng mga problemang ginawa ko.

By 7:15, Im at our school. Looking forward to meet my twin sister.

"Good morning, Princess!"

"Good morning, Prince."

"How's your night?"

"I had a dream of you."

"Really? What kind of dream?"

"Actually, it's not a dream. More like nightmare."

"Ow yeah?"

"Yes. Because you ruined my sleep with your handsama face."

Oww. I can see she's in the mood for fight. But nah, baka mapikon na naman toh ee. Alam ko na sakit neto, mang-aasar tapos pag nilabanan, magwwalk-out! -_-

"Hansama face? Hahaha! Mia?" Mia, one of our classmate who's head over heels in love with me.

"Yes?"

"Come here. Do I look like an ugly dumbass?"

"Of course not! Who told you that? Actually Darius, you're the most handsome person I have ever seen." (*^_^*)

"Really?! Thank you!" I hugged her.

"What are you saying again Princess?"

"Hahahahahahaha! Prince! Seriously?! Did you just flirt with that cuckoo brain hooker?"

"Well, I think so? What's wrong? She's actually nice with yummy boobs and ass."

"Gross! You are such a pervert!"

"No. Im just a man, baby."

"oww c'mon! Go man your face! Hahahahahaha! Feelingero!"

See? We're back! Sister/Brother-Bestfriend mode on! Im just the happiest brother in the whole world dude!

Normal lang ang araw na yon. We chated while waiting on our first period teacher, eat lunch together with a couple of friends, and now, we are at our last subject which is Economics. And this is soooooooo boring. Both the subject and the teacher, mind you. I was never good at Economics. Before I went to falling asleep, I heard the teacher say the magic words 'class dismissed'.

"Princess, sabay na tayo hah. Wait na lang kita sa labas."

"Sure Kuya."

Lumabas na ako ng room at papunta na sa lugar kung saan naka-parking ang kotse ko. Pero bago ako makarating sa parking lot ay may nakita akong nagkukumpulang mga tao banda doon sa labas ng main gate ng campus. Out of curiosity, pumunta na din ako at naki-osyoso. Chismoso toh mga dre. Hehehe. There, I saw a girl laying in the pavement. Mukhang na hit and run.

"Goddamnit people! Where are the guards?! Anong tinutunga-tunganga niyo dyang lahat? Ano, hihintayin niyo na lang bang mamatay yan dito? You're just gonna watch her?! You are so useless! You are fvcking useless! All of you!", sabay turo ko na din sa mga guards. Talaga naman sa mga Pilipino ohh. Grabe na ang katangahan. Napaka-iresponsable.

So, binuhat ko na yung babae. I don't care kung duguan siya. She needed help. All I need to do is isakay siya sa kotse ko at idala sa pinaka malapit na ospital.

Nang makarating kami sa ospital, they immediately put her in the ER.

Mahigit isang oras din siguro akong naghintay bago lumabas yung doktor. Oo, pwede na akong umalis kanina pa. Pero hindi kaya ng konsensya kong iwan na lang siya alo na at wala pa siyang malay. Baka kung mapano pa siya ulit. Di ko pa naman alam kung mako-contact agad agad ang mga magulang ng babae. So, I decided to stay and make sure she's doing well.

"Ikaw ba ang nagdala sa pasyente?"

"Opo Doc. Kumusta na po siya?"

"Madaming dugo ang nawala sa kanya kaya kinakailangan namin siyang salinan ng dugo."

"Ano po bang blood type niya? Baka po magkapareho kami para po makatulong ako."

"No, it's already taken care of. Mabuti na lamang at may stocked kami ng dugo ngayon. 2 days ago kasi eh nagkampanya kami para sa mga willing na magdonate."

"Ganon po ba? Mabuti naman po pala kung ganon."

"Maya maya siguro ay magkakamalay na ang biktima. Pero para sigurado ay kailangan ka namin dito, iho. Wala kasing makitang kahit anong ebidensya ng identity nung dalaga. Not even her very I.D."

"Sige po Doc. Thank you po. Ahh, Doc? Can I see her?"

"Of course."

Pumasok ako sa room niya. Lumapit ako hanggang sa makita ko siya ng malapitan. She's so pale. She got lot of bruises all over her face. Nauna siguro mukha nito nung nasagasaan. But, she's quite pretty. Actually, she almost look familiar to me. Her nose, jaw, lips, I even tried to smell her hair. But I can't tell. I stared at her  for like 20 minutes trying to figured out where the hell did I've seen her familiar face. Naging classmate ko na ba siya dati? No, from the look of her uniform kanina, mukhang hindi. But then, pano kung nag-transfer lang siya? Or maybe naging girlfriend ko siya dati? No, kilala ko pa naman mga naging girlfriend ko. Or is she my neighbour? You know, yung mga madalang lang lumabas sa bahay at madalang mo lang makita.

 Then, she opened her eyes.

"Sino ka? Nasan ako? Anong nangyari?"

"Wh-What?"
