Opposite Attracts

Why didn't You locked the door?

"Yes mom! It was  Before! The thing is, my friends are here, I have a career here, and my boyfriend is here. In short mom, my life is here!" paliwanag ko sa mom ko sa kabilang linya. She's trying to send me back sa pinas. Which is no way. It will never happen. Not now, atleast.

"don't wait for your dad to go there sa US and drag you here pabalik sa pinas. You're going home for a reason."

"and what exactly is the reason mommy?" curious naman ako sa pasabog ng mom ko. Last time I checked, sila ang nag send sa akin dito sa US dahil I'm too stressful to handle daw. Ako naman ang ayaw pumunta dito dati. Naaalala ko pa gano ako ka devastated nung pinalipad nila ako dito. They won't dare wanting me back lalo nat napamahal na sa akin ang bagong life ko dito. As i said nandito ang friends ko at nag momodeling ako dito. Most importantly, nandito ang boyfriend ko.

"well, It's not my place to tell Honey. I'll tell you, wala ka namang choice so better sundin mo nalang ang gusto ng dad mo. Sorry Iha.."

"well, bye now mom. I have to go. Ma lilate na ako sa school." I hanged up.

"Bae, pinapauwi ako ng parents ko sa Pinas" paninimula ko sa best friend kong si Jaque. Jackie naman talaga ang correct spelling ng name nya but she wants it to be spelled as Jaque. I don't see what's the point, pero yun ang gusto nya.

"what? When? Why?"

"wow, kulang nalang nalang ng who ang question mo Bae." I remarked.

"Bae, seryoso? What about your modeling carier here? Si Josh?"

"kung mahal nya talaga ako, uuwi sya ng PH with me." maarte kong sagot.

"So when are you gonna leave?"

"knowing my parents, it would be asap. Baka nga may ticket na ako pauwi e." yes I know better.

"what about your studies?"

"I think I'm gonna finish it there. MOney works for everything. I think my dad already figured it out" just like as how he figured out my future already.

"When are you planning on telling Josh?"

"mamaya sa party"

I went to my apartment after my class. Nilibot ko ang mga mata ko sa apartment ko. I'm gonna miss this place. Kahit papano, 3 years din akong nanirahan dito. Dto na ako nag tapos ng highschool. I loved my life here. Pero di ko rin mawawala sa akin ang exitement na umuwi. My first year here in U.S was tough. I have no friends. I only have my tita Kristina. I live with her at first but I insisted na mag rent ng apartment nearby. My dad didn't like the idea at first of me living alone, but I insisted and blackmailed Him na if di nila ako papayagang mag separate ng apartment, Uuwi ako ng pinas. Eventually napapayag ko ang dad.  I started my senior high and luckily  made friends. I was brough to reality when my iphone rang.

"bitch, I'm coming over. Jan nalang ako mag mi make over."

"ok, bitch! No problem!" that's it then she hang up. That was Bea my other best friend. She's my first filipino friend sa school na pinapasukan ko. We were like two lost puppies at first but eventually, we found each other. We sat next to each other in our history class. I eyed the girl. She has white complexion, pointed nose and mejo malapad ang bibig nya. She said Hi at nabigla ako nang mag tagalog sya. I really though she's american, but found out she's half British. PEro super tulin nya mag tagalog. SHe was born in the Philippines but his dad filed custody nung nalaman nitong alcoholic ang mama nito. So, she was here ever since she was 11. Since then we clicked. Along with Jackie, na madalas hindi nakaka sundo ni Bea. Madalas kasi si Jackie ay man-hunter. Inshort, girl version ng man-whore. Bea is more into serious relationship while Jackie is more into no-strings attach. ME on the other hand, well, just go with the flow. My relationship with Josh, my boyfriend is going steady. NAsasabi kong steady kasi seryoso naman sya. He's understanding, He's sweet, thoughful, palagi nya akong dinadalhan ng favorite kong kisses. At first we're just friends. I knew the guy like me by his body language. WE started dating a year already. MAhal ko na rin yung tao. It will break him if nalaman nya na uuwi ako ng pinas ng ganon ka bilis. I will tell him mamaya. I will ask him to go with me.
