As I enter the room, I know that someone is looking to me with fiery eyes. But I didn't give a fuck. All I want is to get the attention of everyone. Yes I want to be stand out. I am attention seeker. And I'm proud of it. I walk to the center of the room with full of confidence. Why should I bow my head? I am a fucking Buenavista. And I should treated this way. Everyone seems to be affected as I go by, but I know that someone here is not happy in my presence. I want to confront him so I walk to his direction- -but wait? What is that? Oh god! That sound! It freaks the hell out of me! I went up to my bed and grab my phone. Ghad! I am dreaming again. And I want to kill this person who is calling right now! Bullshit! I didn't even bother to see the name of the caller I just grab my phone and answer the call.
'Yes?' I said it in a bored voice. My morning is not good. Because he interrupt my sleeping. Because of that i want to wring his/her neck.
'Where is my goodmorning honey? By the way goodmorning hon! You should wake up now and get some breakfast.' Matthew Veloso. He said it with so much joy in his voice. His acting like we are together. But fuck! I alredy broke up with him!
'And who are you to call this morning and said those words to me? You are acting like you don't know what happened to us last night. Excuse me dude, but last time I check I'm not your girlfriend anymore.'ghadddddd! He's getting already on my nerves.
I turn off the phone and try to catch my sleep again. But no matter how much I tried. I cannot go back to the dreamland again. Fuck that Veloso! I really really hate him! I don't have a choice but to go down and face my family. I just go down wearing some pajama and sando. I didn't bother to look my face at the mirror. My beauty is inborn. And I'm proud of it.
Dumeretso na kagad ako sa dinning room. Alam kong andun na silang lahat.
'Goodmorning everyone!' I shouted it with so much happiness in my voice. Yes. This is the real me. This is the real Athena Nadin Buenavista.
'Goodmorning bebegirl ko! Kanina pa kta gustong gisingin kaso ayaw ni boss. Pagod ka daw eh! San ka ba galing bebegirl? Miss ka na ni kuya. Halika dali. Kiss mo na yung pinakapogi mong kuya na poging poging pogi talaga. Tara dali!' Kuya Andy Nathaniel. Siya ang pangalawa sming tatlong magkakapatid. Ako ang bunso kaya bebegirl tawag nya sakin.
'Iihhhhh! Nagtoothbrush ka ba koya? Baka nman nanununtok yang hininga mo? Sige ka nagkakarate pa namn yung hininga ni kuya nathan.' Sabi ko habang papunta sa upuan ko. Katabi ko si boss tas si man naman sa pinaka gitna ng table nakaupo. Kaharap ni boss si kuya nathan. Katapat ko namn si kuya nathaniel. Si kuya Andrei Nathan naman yung panganay saming tatlo.
'You two. Speak in normal tone. I don't really understand your fucking language.'kuya nathan said. Yes, sya yung pinaka seryoso at strict sming tatlo. Nagmana sya kay dad. Pero kme ni kuya nathaniel, kay mom naman namin nkuha yung ganitong ugali.
'Watch your mouth young man. They are your siblings.'my dad said that with so much authority in his voice. "Man" yung tawag namin sa kanila nila ni kuya pag nag aasaran kame. Tas kay mommy naman "boss" tawag namin. Kse nung bata pa kami nila kuya laging sinasabi ni dad kay mom na 'you're the boss. And im the man' kaya ayun, nakasanayan na naming tatlo.
'Sorry dad. Sorry nathaniel and Athena. Its just that i don't really understand the way you talk with each other. By the way, san nyo ba natutunan yang ganyang language? Koya? Bebe girl? So cheesy.'ghad. Di nman gnun ka cheesy yun ah? Ang saya kaya pakinggan. Pag nagbibiruan lang naman kame ni kuya nathaniel namin sinasabi yun eh.
'Ahm. Wala kuya. Na rinig lang namin yan sa kanto.'kuya nathaniel said. Yes. That's the truth. One time kase, lumabas kami ni kuya nang subdivision. Naglakad lakad lang kame. Tas ayun, narinig lang namin talaga sa mga tambay sa kanto.
'Kanto? What's that word? Wala naman ata sa dictionary yang word na yan.'kunot noong sabi ni kuya nathan. Oh god! Wala talaga siyang ka-alam alam sa outside world.
'Stop it. Let's eat. Im hungry.'mom said. Oh, wala ata sa mood si mom ngayon ah? We eat silently. No one dares to talk. The boss is not in a good mood. After we ate, we parted our ways. I go to my room and fix myself couz im going to my office. Yes, i have a business. Clothing line. I love fashion. One of my stress reliever is to create or draw some popular dresses.
After i finished to do my things, i go downstair to find my mom and dad. They are sitting in the garden and they are talking about our business.
'Hey, mom and dad! You two looked so busy ah? Hmm. What's the problem boss?' I seated beside mom. Ang hugged her like a ten years old baby girl.
'Nothing baby. We have a little problem in our business anak. One of our major stockholders is going to pull out his investment. And we can't afford to loose him.'mom said while she is rubbing my hair. Our company has a big problem now. I should help them.
'Who is that-' dad cut me off and he said that i don't need to know him.
'You don't need to know him baby. Its just a little problem. I can fix it. Trust me. You should focus in your business anak. By the way, i heard that your business is going to expand in other country. Is that true?' They are trying to avoid the issue about the company. I can feel it.
'Ahm. Yes dad. Im going to expand it all over the world.'i said it while im looking directly to him.
'That's good to hear Athena. Oh, it's already 10 am baby. You should go to your office now.'mom said. She is smiling to me. God! Im already late. But i really don't give a damn. Afterall, im the boss there. So why should i bother?
'Yes mom. Paalis na din talaga ako. Mag papa alam lang din sana ako sa inyo kanina. Bye boss,bye man! See yah later. Mwa.' I gave them flying kiss then i hurriedly go to my car. My favorite car. Mc Laren. Someone bought this for me. I drive my car as fast as i can. And after a couple of minutes. Finally im here infront of my company.
