In a Relationship with Dashed (Completed)

C19: Dashléy, the Brother of Dashed.

19: Dashléy, the Brother of Dashed

"Krishna, look who's here!" three tall girls from the senior department suddenly blocked my path as I walked down the hallway towards our classroom.

I glanced up, and my eyes widened a little. They were taller than me by at least a foot. At sa aura pa lang nila, I was pretty sure they were among the spoiled brats here at De La Carida.

Tumingin ako sa paligid. We were in front of the bulletin board, and some students were already staring.

Seems like I picked the wrong time to come early. Ako lang kasi 'yong mag-isang naglalakad ngayon since Dashed couldn't pick me up at home. May importante pa raw kasi siyang pupuntahan kaya pinauna na niya ako rito. Si Teegan naman, siguradong mamaya pa ang dating non dahil sa bagal niyang kumilos.

"The extraordinary bitch from Málaga, huh?" one of the girls said as she approached me. "I've heard a lot of obnoxious things about you, dear," she reached out and grabbed the end of my hair. I immediately winced at her touch. "Transferee ka pa naman pero... you're showing your true colors na!"

Hindi ko alam kung paano sasalubungin ang mga titig nila gayong alam kong may bahid ito ng hindi ko maintindihang galit. Ano bang ginawa ko sa kanila? As far as I could remember, I had only seen them just now. Their faces weren't even familiar.

But I felt like if I stayed here any longer, I might end up in a fight.

I held onto the straps of my backpack tighter. "I'm sorry, but I don't know what you're talking about. If you don't mind... marami pa akong gagawin." lalagpasan ko na sana sila kaso mabilis na hinablot n'ong babaeng nagsalita kanina 'yong buhok ko.

Ngumiwi ako sa sakit. Pakiramdam ko ay maaalis ang ulo ko sa higpit ng pagkakasabunot niya sakin.

"We're not done talking, bitch!  'Wag kang bastos!" she yelled and forcefully lifted my chin up.  "Hindi porke boyfriend mo na ang isa sa mga pinaglalawayan ng mga kababaihan dito, magyayabang ka na! Fool! Dashed is not what you think he is! Kapag nakuha na niya ang gusto niyang makuha sa'yo? Sigurado akong itatapon ka rin lang niya na para bang pagkain pagkatapos pagsawaan!"

That's it.

This is all about my relationship with Dashed. They hated me for being with him. They were hurting me because of him.

Tears welled up in my eyes as they tightly held both of my hands. Sinubukan kong tumingala at humingi ng tulong mula sa mga estudyanteng nanonood pero pati sila, halatang nasisiyahan din na nakikita akong pinagtutulungan.

Bakit sila ganito? Kaya nilang manakit ng ibang tao para lang sa isang lalaki?

I couldn't believe this!

"What? You're scared na?" one of them asked as I felt a palm land on my cheek. Muli akong napapikit sa hapdi! "Sa amin lang si Dashed! Get it through your thick skull! Kami lang ang may karapatan na humawak sa kanya!"

And I received another blow from them. I badly wanted to talk. I badly wanted to defend myself. I badly wanted to spill everything about the deal, but my body was in too much pain and I couldn't even utter a single word.

"We've been wanting to teach you a lesson since last week! But we couldn't make a move because you're like a linta na laging nakadikit sa kanya!" tumulo ang mga luha ko. "This is what you get for being in a relationship with him, bitch! With our Dashed!"

Marahas nila akong tinulak kaya napaluhod ako sa sakit. My tears kept streaming down my face. My eyes were pleading for help, but nobody cared enough to even help me stand up.

Teegan was wrong when she said Caridanians were good. I never saw that.

I never felt that.

Nilapitan ako ng babaeng may pangalan na Krishna. She was ready to pull my hair again, and I was mentally preparing myself for the pain, when someone spoke up.

"That's enough."

The voice was familiar. I wanted to see who it was, but my eyes were too heavy. Every part of me hurt like hell. Ang sakit-sakit ng katawan ko. Ang hapdi ng mga sugat na natamo ko mula sa mga kamot nila.

My relationship with Dashed... I wanted it to end.

It needed to end.

That was when I lost my senses. That was when I felt someone's hand catch me on the spot.

You might think it was Dashed... but no.

It was him. It was Dashléy Calderón de García.
