Inah POV

"Maya who the hell is this?" tanong ni Dad habang pinagmamasdan si Karlos.

"Its our new son" sabi ni Mommy.

"SON?! SINCE WHEN did we had.a SON?!" sigaw ni Daddy.

"I adopted him. Sabi mo gusto mo ng lalaking anak. Now we got it, wag mong sabihin na ayaw mo ah!" Mommy explained.

"Gusto ko..Pero galing sa flesh and blood ko" he said.

"I will keep him. If you do not want him then wag!" sabi ni Mommy.

"Fine! Pero I will not treat him as my own" sigaw ni Papa at umalis.

Tumingin si Mommy kay Karlos at hinawakan sa pisngi.

"Oo nga ate Karla. Pwede ba kitang tawaging Ate? O Kuya??" tanong ko.

She nodded and smiled.

Karlos POV

I felt outcasted. Para bang ayaw sakin lahat ng tao...

The next day, Papasok na sila sa school o work.

Nasa room ko lang ako.

I went to the door and put my ear against it.

"Asan ung anak mong isa?'' i heard dad.say.

"Ayaw nyang sumabay." mom said.

"Good." he said.

"Kelan mo ba sya matatanggap?" mom asked.

"Di ko alam." he stood up and left.

Na enroll ako sa school ni Inah.

Pumasok ako, wearing a boy's uniform.

"Okay. May magpapakilala saating bagong classmate" sabi ng teacher.

"I am Karlos Cruz Reyes" i said shyly.

Tapos umupo ako katabi ng poging lalaki.

He kept glaring at me.

"Hi Im Jan Roque" he smiled.

"Hi....Jan.." i smiled.

He whispered something to me.

"Can we be bestfriends?"

"Ah Oo naman"

Si Jan ang una kong naging kaibigan.

Habang tumatagal, lumalalim ang pagkakaibigan namin. At...Hindi nya pa alam...

Wala naman syang napapansin.

Except yung mga pagpunta ko sa banyo.. Nagtataka sya bakit sa cubicle pa ako umiihi di nalang dun sa labas.

Noong Grade 6 na kami, my body started to develope at nagsisimula na kong maattract sa boys.

Kinakatakot ko lang ay ang period.

Binigyan ako ni Mommy ng bandage para iflat yung boobs ko.

Buti nalang ay flat chested ako.

Isang araw, naghaharutan kami ni Jan at nagtatawanan.

When I stood up, sabi nya may red stain daw ako sa trousers.

Shet Period !

I quickly covered it and ran to the girls' toilet. Buti nalang andoon si Inah.

"Inah! Pahinge ng napkins please... Meron na ko..." i begged.

She looked at me and handed me a packet.

I heard someone calling my name.

"Karlos? Ok ka lang ba? At bakit ka nasa banyo ng girls??"

Si Jan.

Oh No

How...How do I tell him???
