Chapter 24: The sibling

Excited na ba kayong makita kung sino ang nakatagpo ni Sophie?

Here it is… THE SIBLING

Enjoy reading Flers ;)

**

Damn. mukhang isa siya sa mga Villamor.

SPY? Agad-agad?

“Bagong maid po ako dito” palusot ko.

For a second, he hesisated.

“Ah. Ba’t hindi mo agad sinabi?” sagot niya.

Ha? Naniwala siya? Tumango nalang ako.

“But.. why are you doing on the floor?” tanong niya.

Agad akong tumayo. Ngayon ko lang nakita ang full features ng mukha niya hanggang sa katawan niya. Medyo tanned ang skin niya and he has a very broad shoulder. Pang model ang katawan. Shocks. Pero hindi niya naman kamukha si Mac.

Sino ba siya?

“I said … anong ginagawa mo sa floor?” he asked again.

“Ah. nag night cleaning po” palusot ko ulit.

“Night cleaning?” he looks unconvinced.

“Ah. Opo. Special service”

“Sinong nag hire sa iyo?” he asked.

“Si madam Chenee po”

“So, you’re supposed to be night cleaning?”

“Yup”

“Why not start in my room?”

“Po?”

“Since you’re a maid. You have to clean our room”

“Ahhh. Eh wala pa po akong gamit dala. Papunta pa sana ako sa cleaning cabinet”

Sana umepekto ang palusot ko.

“Oh, don’t worry. Hindi ka naman mag wawalis or mag dusting. You just have to arrange my things”

“Ah..”

“Hm? Are you neglecting your boss?” he irritatedly asked.

“Ah. Hindi po. Sige po papasok na ako” wala akong choice.

I slowly entered his room. Chills tickled my spine. Naku po, ano ba itong pinasok ko. Nag hihintay pa ako sa voice ni Chenee. Hoping she’ll help me with this.

“You can start by arranging my books in that book shelf” sabay turo sa dalawang brown colored book shelf.

Ang dami niyang libro in fairness.

“Okay po”

Mas matangkad pa sa akin ang mga book shelf pero may chair naman sa side kaya okay lang. Kaya lang ng powers ko. Napansin kong humiga siya sa kanyang kama. Seriously? Okay lang sa kanya na matulog habang nandito ako?

Hindi ko namalayan na nakatitig na pala ako sa kanya.

“What are you looking at?” tanong niya.

Napa-shake ako sa ulo at bumalik sa pag a-arrange.

Hmmmm. May dictionary, thesaurus at mga encyclopedia. Binabasa niya ba ito lahat? Ang smart niya siguro. Ina align ko lang ang mga books at lumipat na sa kabilang book shelf. I sneaked a peek sa kanya pero mukhang natutulog na siya.

Bumalik nalang ako sa pag a-arrange. Mukhang fan siya ni Rick Riordan. Kasi may collection siya ng mga Percy Jackson book. From lightning thief to The last olympian. My kane chronicles rin siya. Howaw.

I grabbed a chair and step on it kasi nasa itaas ang mga books. Pero habang ina-align ko ang book ay may nahulog na picture. Hindi ko alam kung ano. Agad ko namang kinuha. Picture niya na may kasamang lalaki. Hindi naman si Mac. I spend a minute staring at the picture.

Sino kaya ito? Hmmmmm.

“Anong tinitignan mo?” he asked.

Sa sobrang shock ko ay malapit akong mahulog sa chair pero buti nalang at sinalo ako.

Mukha kaming newly wed sa posing namin --____--

“Ah, Sorry po” agad akong bumaba.

“Ano yang hawak mo?” tanong niya.

Shocks. YUNG PICTURE! Anong gagawin ko?

“May kinuha ka?” tanong niya.

“Ah. Nahulog lang po sa book mo” agad kong ibinigay sa kanya ang picture.

He looks unconvinced. AGAIN.

“Sit down” he said.

“PO?”

“I said. SIT DOWN” he raised his voice.

Umupo naman ako sa chair.

“Who are you?” he asked.

“Maid po ---”

“I mean your name” he interupted.

“A eh.. Sophie” I answered.

“Sophie” he repeated.

Bumalik siya sa bed at umupo doon.

“You’re a spy” he said.

“Ah? Po? Maid lang po---” hindi ko natapos.

“Liar” he looks confident.

I don’t know what to say.

“Sophie?”

Si Chenee na ata tuh. Pero hindi naman ako maka-reply kasi nasa harapan ko ang lalaking ito.

“Sino ka?” bigla kong natanong. Why did I say that? O.o

“And now you’re asking me” he said.

He smiled. Nakakalokang smile.

“You aren’t a maid, are you?” he asked.

I stayed silent. and then asked.

“I’ll answer it of you answer me too. Who are you?” I confidently said.

“Sophie. I know where you are …” sabi ni Chenee.

“And you’re at the worst place to be” she continued.

“You’re in the room of ….”

The guy smiled.

“I am Aaron’s Step brother”

“Aaron’s Step brother”

Halos sabay sila ni Chenee sa pag answer.

“Now, answer me”

I held my breath and finally spoke.

“I gave up. You’re right”

“Sophie. What are you saying?” nagtatakang tanong ni Chenee.

“Tell me who you are” he said.

I took a  deep breath.

“I’m sophie. Classmate ni Mac”

“Mac? Oh. You mean Aaron”

“Satisfied?” tanong ko.

He got up tapos papunta sa akin.

Tumayo rin ako at pupunta sana sa door.

“The door is lock” he said.

I saw the keys in his hands. 

"What?" I asked.

"Tell me more"
