Chapter 1
“Wake up, darling.”
“Hmm… 5 more minutes…,” I said as I pulled my blanket over my head because she already opened the curtains and the sun is already shining over my face which they said is beautiful and I admit to that. Every girl is beautiful in their own unique ways.
“Okay, whatever you want,” she said and leaves the room. She doesn’t really care about me. All she cares is money, money, and money from my parents. And worse, she’s my auntie!
Mom and Dad is in the states doing some business. They just go visit me here if its summer or Christmas but not my birthday’s. They’d just send me some expensive gifts which I don’t really need like make up, dresses, heels, etc. All I want is themselves which they couldn’t give it to me.
Well I understand them. Their marriage was just fixed and that means they don’t love each other. I wasn’t made by love, I was made—maybe—by lust. And that’s a sad part for me. So, maybe they don’t really love me even though they said it. I don’t feel it. Anyways, enough of them. I need to go to school or I’ll be late!
I jump of my bed and walked to the toilet to go let out my urine. Ah~ It feels good. After that, I go strip—hey! Don’t peak! Pervert!—and go take a bath, baby! So I sang a hip hop song that I made on the spot and it’s more of “yeah” and “let’s go!” and “Swaggie! Yo baby!”. I love hip hop. And so, when I was done, I went downstairs to eat breakfast with her. Don’t worry, I’m used to it.
“Hey, I’m sorry”, she said out of the silence.
“Why are you saying sorry? Because you betrayed Mom and Dad? And for stealing their money that was for me? Ask forgiveness to them, and not to me,” I said and put the bacon on my mouth. I love bacons.
“You’re too assuming, aren’t you?”
“So, if it’s not that, then what?”
“I’m sorry because I’d waked you up early today, it’s Saturday. No classes, dear.”
“I hate you,” I said as I continue to eat my breakfast.
“The feeling is mutual,” she said as she continues too. ARGH! I wanted to sleep more! But I could just go back to sleep again. As I was drinking my water because I already finished my breakfast, I heard a beep from a car outside, which is in front of our house. How did I know? I could see it through this big window. It wasn’t Dad’s car, I don’t know whose car is it! Well I don’t care. The car is blocking the view.
“Hey auntie! Someone’s blocking the beautiful view from here because of that stupid car that the person who is also stupid owns. Better check it.”
“Why don’t you check it? Can’t you see I’m still eating?”
“Yeah, right,” obviously I didn’t have a choice. The reason why I can’t go bitchy on her because she could make my parents believe in a lie. So, no choice. I ran outside to see who it is and in my surprise, it was Luis.
“Yo,” he greeted me.
“So what’s brings you here? Saying sorry because you hurt me a bit?” yeah. He hurt me a bit. He used me to make the girl he likes jealous but that failed because I think he was friend-zoned. Serves him right.
“Nope. I need you, because I’m gonna use you, again. Will you please let me?” he said while doing ‘puppy-eyes’ and his two palms stick together. Aww… It’s so cute! Should I say yes?
“First things first, what is it that I have to do?”
“Just answer me, is it a yes? Or a no?”
“Hey, I have to know it first.”
“Oh? It’s a no? Okay, then see you on Monday.” He said and opened the driver’s seat door.
“Okay! Okay! Yes!”
“Finally! Okay here’s the plan. You have to keep this a secret okay?” I just nodded. But I promised.
“Via…” oh my gosh. He’s calling me Via! He’s the only one who calls me Via and I love it.
“Yes?”
“Kathleen is not a real girl. Kath is gay!” he said in a low voice. What? As I know Kathleen is the girl who he had a crush on.
“HAHA.” I said sarcastically.
“You don’t believe me?”
“Because it’s totally unbelievable dude. She’s pretty, but please don’t tell her I said that.”
“I don’t care if you believe me or not. But here’s what you need to do. You need to make him a real man. Kailangan maging barako na siya! Sayang naman! Cute na lalaki eh! Bakla nga kasi siya! Ano ba!”
“Okay! Okay! Kalma lang! At ano naman ang kapalit nito?” I asked. Hindi pwedeng wala itong kapalit noh! Ano siya? Sineswerte? Sabagay…
“I’ll give your cards back.”
“Oh really? Do you have them? Then show it to me! Sinong niloloko mo? Ha?” I said confidently. Suddenly, parang mushroom nalang na hawak niya yung wallet ko kung saan andun lahat ng cards ko. Seriously? How did he manage to get those? He’s a genius!
“Tadaaan~”
“How did you get that?”
“It’s a secret. Anyway, go get ready, I’ll be back to get you at eight. Bye!” he said and got inside of his car. Wait, why am I going with him at eight?! I hurried back inside and went to my room and searched for my phone. As I found it, I called him.
“Yes?” he says on the phone.
“Hey! Why do you have to go back at eight?”
“Hello, we’re gonna start today.”
“What?! So what am I supposed to do?”
“Get dressed. You two, are going on a date.”
“Seriously?!”
“Do I look like I’m joking?!”
“ARGH! I HATE YOU!”
“Yeah-yeah, it’s for your cards sake.”
“Oh, about my car—“
*toot toot toot~*
Baby shark! Binabaan ako ng telepono? How dare him! Ugh!
I, again, have no choice. Because he said it, and he is my crush. But I’m already moving on. J
I wore pink skinny jeans, black t-shirt, a black sling bag, black high heeled rubber shoes and dark make up. It’s gothic style right? Yeah, it’s obvious.
So here I am. Waiting. And I hate it. I don’t like this. But for the sake of my cards, I’ll do it!
