Bound To You

CHAPTER 12

"You're really lucky to have me bro" sabi ni Raven pagkasakay ko sa kotse niya.

I shook my head and looked at the back. "May nakasunod sayo?" I asked.

He shook his head "Wala akong napansin" he answered. "Sinusundan ka pa rin ba nung babaeng may pulang kotse?"

"Tss. Nasa party siya ni Pamela kanina. She freaking gatecrashed."

Raven laughed "Really? Malala na yan Bro"

"Tss"

His laughed reverberated inside his car. Baliw. I shook my head stared through the window. Summer vacation is finally over. I sighed. I' wouldn't be able to see Pamela very often but I could visit her if I want to.

"Holy shit! Is that your stalker?" Raven said that got me alarmed.

Tumingin ako sa likod only to see the familiar red car. I groaned "Dammit, can you drive faster?" I asked Raven.

Without a word, he increased the speed of the car. I kept my eyes at the car behind us and cursed when it was able to equal our speed. Umayos ako ng upo at sumandal. I ruffled my hair and sighed. That girl wouldn't stop.

"Lumipat ka sa kabilang lane saka mo bagalan, baka mabangga niya tayo" sabi ko which Raven obeyed.

Dahil sa ginawa ni Raven, mabilis na lumagpas yung pulang kotse. The speed of the car slowly decreasing hanggang sa makalapit kami. I heard Raven laughed which irritates me.

"Un-freaking-believable!" he breathlessly muttered while laughing. "Bro, your appeal reached the top. Ibang klase" sabi pa nito.

Tss. I don't care about my appeal. I'd rather be ugly than having such obsessed stalker who will follow me wherever I go.

Raven's car honked and pace the red car. I frowned when he opened the window on my side letting the driver of the red car see me.

"What the fvck Raven?" I hissed angrily.

He laughed again, obviously enjoying this. "Im giving her a better view"

I shook my head in disbelief then turned my gaze to my side. I glared at the car as if I can see through the tinted window of it before I closed mine. I just let Raven drive until he finally stops in front of our house. I don't care if that stalker followed us, im sure she already knew this place and I don't want to waste my time on herdesperation. She's not worth it.

"Mom, I want to transfer" I said over the breakfast.

Mom stopped chewing then stared at me. Slowly, her lips quirks up when my words sunk in "Payag ka na?" she asked.

I nodded "Yep. Pwede pa ba? Pasukan na bukas" I frowned.

"Who changed your mind son?" Dad suddenly asked.

My brows furrowed. He could have said what but he used who, Dad's really smart. Im impressed.

I smirked "You know who" then shrugged my shoulder.

Mom giggled "Si Pam? Are you finally courting her? Oo nga pala, anong nangyari sa party? Anong niregalo mo? Did you two dance?" sunud sunod na tanong ni Mom.

"My wife relax. Let's eat first" Dad said.

Napailing na lang ako.

"Kuya, who's Pam? Is she your girlfriend? Can she be my girlfriend too?" asked Troy.

Mom and Dad laughed. I chuckled at my brother's cuteness.

"You cannot share with Kuya's girlfriend and you're too young for that kiddo" sabi ni Dad.

Troy pouted which made him even more cuter that's why Mom pinched his cheek.

"We're lucky they still accept new enrollees. Pero you need to take exam first tomorrow" Mom said and I nodded. "Hindi na ko magtatanong kung bakit ka lilipat ang mahalaga, you'll be graduated from our alma matter" she said happily.

"Thanks Mom. You're the best" I smiled and kissed her cheek.

"Sus, manang mana ka sa Daddy mo. Si Raven din ba lilipat?"

"Opo, he volunteered himself to join me para mabantayan daw niya si Yanna"

Mom chuckled. "Namiss ko tuloy ang Tita Alyssa and Tita Trixie mo and of course Tito Marc mo. Raven is such a good bestfriend, bakit hindi mo siya ibuild up sa pinsan mo?"

"Tss. He can do it if he really want, he just needed tons of guts" I shrugged.

"How about you? Hindi mo pa sinasagot yung tanong ko kanina" she raised her eyebrow.

"Im not courting Pamela. But yeah, I like her"

Mom sighed "Okay, I wouldn't pry anymore. Sige na, i'll call the school admin again to inform na dalawa kayong mageexam bukas"

"Thanks again Mom"

"Anything for you baby" she smiled.

I dialed Raven's number and told him what Mom said.

"Thanks bro, magshift na rin kaya ako ng course?"

"Bahala ka sa buhay mo, malala ka na"

"Tch. Ang supportive mo talaga. Anyways, pakisabi kay Tita thank you"

I ended the call and decided to play with my brother. The decision on transferring isn't really not in my plan. But after what happened last night, I have this feeling that stalker girl Ashley would go overboard. I've never encountered someone like her, it's creepy. Kilala na niya si Pam and God knows what she will do her if im not around. That's why I decided na lumipat kung saan siya nag-aaral.

"Kuya, why don't we have sister?" Troy suddenly asked.

"I don't know, ask Mom and Dad about that" I answered then chuckled.

"I want a sister like Ate Yanna" he pouted.

"Tell Mom and Dad to give you baby sister instead, don't you want to have a baby here?" I asked.

"I want!" he exclaimed then ran to Mom immediately while chanting "I want a baby! I want a baby!"

I laughed hard. Mom and Dad was so shocked. Iniwan ko na silang nagkakagulo sa living room at pumasok na ko sa kwarto ko. I roamed my eyes inside my room, im gonna miss this. Naupo ako sa tapat ng study table ko pinitik yung ulo ng panda na may string sa leeg that caused its head to shake. It's cute. It's my very first panda stuff na napulot ko lang noon sa park na nakabalot pa sa gift wrapper. From then on I became obsessed with it that I even brought a mascot costume of panda.

I smiled when I suddenly had an idea as to where can I use the mascot. Tumayo ako at hinanap sa mga kahon yung costume and luckily it's still good and looked new. I was smiling like an idiot. This would be very special.
