Seducing My Nerd Roommate [Under Major Revision]

Chapter 8

Savana

NAKAKUNOT ang noo kong nakatitig sa kisame habang naghihintay na may dumaan na butiki kahit isa man lang. Gusto kong balian sila ng buntot at iprito at ipakain sa taong sumunog nang convenient store na pinagtatrabahuan ko gabi gabi.

Wala na akong trabaho. Hindi ko alam kung saan ako kukuha ng pang tuition ko kung ganung wala naman akong sapat na pagkakakitaan. Should I sell my body? My virginity for dollars? Nah, sounds pathetic.

Mas lalo pang uminit yung ulo ko nang may biglang kumatok sa kwarto ko. Nag ngingitngit akong pinagbuksan ito ng pinto.

"You have a visitor Savana," Saad ni Aaron at agad na umalis at nag tungo sa salas. Sumilip ako sa pintuan and then I saw my sister Sierra sitting freely in the couch waiting for me to come out.

Hindi ako lalabas, tangina niya.

Hindi ako mapakali at tila ba nababagot ako kakahintay sa butiki sa kisame kaya labag man sa loob ko, lumabas ako at binungaran siya ng nakangiting demonyita.

"What brought you here dear sister?" I Smile sarcastically.

"I have something to tell you," Sabi niya at tumayo.

Aaron was behind us and I know he heard every word comes in our mouth. Bahala siya, kung ako sa kanya papasok na siya ng kwarto niya at doon nalang manonood ng paborito niyang palabas kasi maya maya lang ay magsisigawan na kami.

"Oh really? Let me guess that," I fake a smile. "Are you going to offer me money again?" I asked annoyingly.

Lumapit si Sierra sa akin nang bahagya pero lumayo lang ako. I maintain some distance between us. I no longer treat her as my older sister after she dumped me in that bullshit house of ours.

"Papa told me to take care of you Savana," She said trying to convince me.

"So you left me years ago?" I laughed.

"Savana you don't understand," She said cracking her voice.

Pag siya iiyak dito bubuhusan ko talaga siya ng mainit na tubig nang matigil yung kadramahan niya.

"Hindi ko maintindihan? Natural, hindi ko maintindihan kung bakit mas pinili mong sundan si papa habang sinusundan naman niya yung kabit niya! You left me! You left me all!" I tried not to make dramatic scene.

"Savana please, accept this money." She said trying to hold my hand.

Umiling iling ako. "No!" Giit ko.

"If you won't stop offering me, I will going to rip that shit into pieces and burn it like how I burn the memories we had share Sierra," I said full of confidence.

In my peripheral vision, I saw Aaron stood up bringing his laptop into his room while puting his hoodie into his head. Weird.

"Savana your just mad and I'm sorry," She said walking towards me.

"Apology accepted, now get out in my freaking apartment," I said looking at her in the eyes.

"No until you take this," Sabi niya sabay abot sa hawak niyang envelop.

Napahalakhak na lamang ako sa sobrang inis. Ang kapal nang mukha. Ang kapal nilang paamuhin ako gamit yung pera nila. Akala siguro nila bibigay ako. No I can't and I won't.

"Sierra how many times do I have to tell you that I will never accept anything if it comes from you and your dad?" It's exactly my dad but I hate calling him as my dad after he left me all alone.
