MR. WHITE

6 ( why me ? )

YUKI

"k-ken " natatrangtang sabi ng mga schoolmates ko " why are  you here ? "

" .. what do you think your doing to my partner ? " galit na sabi ni ken sa kanila

" she deserve it ken .. why did you pick her she's not  talented and she'll ruin your reputation  !! " sabi nung isa kung school mate kay ken

" wala kayong pakialam kung sino yung gusto kung  maging partner.. if she's talent less then what does it make you ? a loser who doesnt even know how to paint .. and besides i don't care about other peoples opinion .. at ipa alala ko lang sayo raquel kung hindi binayaran ng pamilya mo ang school na'to hanggang ngayon hindi ka parin student ng A.D  .. you should know your place "pag ka sabi niya nun hinila nya ako paalis dun ..

we went out of campus at sumkay sa kotse nya .. he said we're going to his house ..

pag dating namin sa bahay niya .. i was so awed he has a really big house it saw just amazing ..

pag pasok namin sa main gate ng whole place  hanggang dito sa pinto ng bahay nila ..

pag pasok namin sa bahay nila he was greeted by maids ..

kung malaki yung labas ng bahay mas malaki ata ang loob ..

" welcome to our house .." sabi niya sakin .. whooh! thank god its not painted in white o malloloka na talaga ako !

" Anata no ie wa subarashīdesu! " sabi ko sa kanya habang sobrang namamangha { trans: your house is amazing ! }

"actually its my grandfathers house dito kami nakatira nina kara and her little sister .. "

" so nasan yung parents mo ? .. at teka may kapatid si kara ?" nag tatakang tanong ko sa kanya

" my parents are away right now .. my dad's in japan he's too busy with his work while mom is busy with her clothing line .. she's too busy coming up with new designs for her next fashion line "sabi niya sakin " and yes kara has a sisiter .. she's studying in MSFA elementaray department "

nag lakad kami sa hall way ng mansion nila ang I saw a lot of paintings and portraits in the wall .. may  damit pa nga dun na nilagay sa glass cage .. its like a museum here ..

binasa ko yung nakasulat sa glass cage and it says ' Jeanne d'Aboville's first winning entry @ MSFA 's designing competition '

mag kamukha sila ni ken .. so this must be his mom so that means his mom  is an alumni of MSFA .. may nakita ulit akong painting may iba namang naka sulat this time it was ' Alexandre d'Aboville's winning piece @ MSFA's arts competition ' sino kaya to ? baka papa to ni kara ?marami pa akong nakitang mga paintings dun ang iba pa dun ay sa kanilang dalawa ni kara at sa lolo nila ..

" hey ken.. is everyone in your family alumni's of MSFA ?" nagtatakang  tanong ko sa kanya

" my grandfather Lorenzo Antonio d'Aboville is one of the pioneering student in MSFA he's pure french and my grand mother juliette Albrecht-d'Aboville is also a pioneering student in MSFA .. they actually meet there my grandfather is pure french while my grandmother is half filipino half german .. they decided to stay loyal to the school that's why we all go their and besides art runs through our veins "  natatawang sabi nya ..

" wow ang loyal nyo ah! " natatawang sabi ko sa kanya

" well you can call it that way..tara pasok tayo I want to show you something "ano kaya yun ?

he opened the door and we went inside

the room was filled with paintings and portraits siguro studio nya to .

" is this room yours? " tanong ko sakanya

" no its my grand mother's .. you know you remind me of her " bigla nyang sabi sakin

"really ? "

"hmn my grandmother was an exhange student she grew up in germany so she didn't fit in with everyone else, most of their batch mates underestimated her and called her talent-less, but she meet my grandfather he was the only person who saw my grandmothers potential. he helped her and motivated her,  kagaya nalang ngayon hindi ka dapat nag papaniwala sa mga sinasabi ng ibang tao. only you can define yourself." seryosong sabi niya sakin

"ken bakit ba ako yung na pili mong maging partner ? why me ? " tanong ko sa kanya

" honestly the first time i saw you i was thing that ' ah she's just like them. walang sense of art'. " pagka sabi niya nun medyo nainis ako " but when i saw you paint at the feildtrip nag bago yng isip ko .. and i said to myself ah this girl has talent half baked nga lang pero pwede pang e improve .. she just need a little boost , a challenge! " na pa ngiti nalang ako bigla
. nakinig lang akosa kanya habang nag sasalita sya

" sabi ng grandpa ko if I were to find a partner i should find someone like my grandma .. someone with a half baked talent masaya daw kasi if you get to see someone bloom just like cherry blossoms in spring. " seriously na i-inspire na ako sa mga sinasabi niya .

" so lets improve our skills together .. normal lang naman yang mga challenges ..nasa'yo nlang kung mag papa-apekto ka or you'll just ignore it.."
sab nya habang naka ngiti

"so let me ask you agin and this time I won't force you . yuki do you want to be my partner? " he said with his hands infront of me as if he was asking me to be his prom date or something..

tinignan ko lang yung kamay nya .. but eventually hinawakan ko din at nag shake hands kami

" Eidan ! " sabi niya sakin { trans: good decision! }

" Na! Watashi wa chōdo sorera o mushi shi, watashi no mokuhyō ni shōten o atemasu" na tawa nalang siya bigla sa sinabi ko { trans: nah! i'll just ignore them and focus on my goal }

" Sore wa seishinda! " {trans: that's the spirit! }

after niya akong e tour sa mini museum ng bahay nila pumunta kami sa studio niya dito sa mansion nila at sinimlan na ang entry namin ..

I've made a decision and I'm not gonna regret this ! i want to be a better painter , a painter that will insiper others!

AN: Yey naka update din ako ! nga pala i just want to greet everyone a happy month of love !
