My birthday is coming in real fast!
Finally! pwede na akong mag asawa, charot.
Pero seriously talking, I'm pretty nervous and excited because I'm gonna be meeting a lot of people, either na meet ko na before or hindi pa. Pero I bet most of the families na invited are already familiar saakin, since madalas naman akong sinasama nila Mom and Dad sa mga social events and gatherings.
Tho di parin ako totally masaya since may naalala ako, he's courting her. Kahit na nandito naman ako na di na nya kailangan manligaw diba?! why is he making his life complicated.
Today pupunta kami sa bahay nila Zach, I'm with my parents sabi kasi ni Mom she wanna see tita Leana, that's why she wants to visit and para na din daw maibigay yung invitation for my debut.
Nang makarating kami sa mansion nila, ay agad akong lumabas sa kotse para mas mapabilis ang pag kikita namin ni Zach. Yes, atat ako bakit ba?
"Hi tita!!" I kissed her cheek and smiled brightly at her.
"Hello there, Pumpkin! How are you?"
"I'm totally fine tita! where's Zach?" I asked
"Oh, he just left sabi nya may aasikasuhin daw sya."
Vienne syempre. I won't deny it, I was really disappointed.
Padabog akong pumasok sa kanila at dumiretso sa kanilang kitchen to get something to eat mag s-stress eating nalang ako, beside wala namang pakielam ang kung sino kung tumaba ako at pumanget diba. wala naman mag iinteres sakin, I couldn't even get Zach's attention paano pa ang iba? wala na akong pakielam no, I just wanna be happy! and food and solusyon sa ganyang problema.
Nang makapasok ako sa kanilang kitchen, I was more than shocked to see Zach's younger brother sitting on a stool while reading a book.
"The hell?" Bulong ko, which he heard because he looked up at dumiretso ang tingin saakin.
Zion Wei Ty, I haven't seen him in such a long time, ang alam ko ay sa states sya nag lalagi because that's where he studies.
He still use eye glasses? pinasadahan ko ng tingin ang kanyang kabuuan, his hair is dyed dirty blonde na nag mamatch sa kanyang maputing complexion making him look like some sort of foreigner, his hair is really messy but it just made him look more handsome just like his brother, his hazel brown eyes along with his long luscious lashes, and ang kanyang matangos na ilong.
He's wearing a simple black v neck shirt, and maong pants along with his wrist watch and a gold bracelet.
Ibinaba nya ang libro at tuluyan nang humarap saakin, giving me full access to see his bulging triceps dahil binuhat nya ang kanyang sarili upang makababa sa mataas na stool.
"Hey, kitten. You done checking me out?" He smirked.
"Y-you've changed." Tinanggal nya ang salamin nya at nag inat. Tumaas ng bahagya ang kanyang damit giving me a view of his v line and his chiseled abs. I was shookt. When did he became this hot?!
"Really? You haven't tho." Lumapit sya saakin and did the thing that I didn't expect him to do. Hinawakan nya ang baba ko at Ini-angat ang mukha ko, now we're face to face. "Still the same Jian Nayi that I know." He slowly said.
It gave me chills.
Hinawi ko naman ang kamay nyang nakahawak sa chin ko at tumayo ng diretso. "Don't touch me." I was never fond of him, bata pa lang kami lagi na kaming nag babangayan, walang araw na never kaming nag away. Kahit na napaka simpleng bagay ay pinagtatalunan namin, basically para kaming aso't pusa. Pero since he left to study, we lost connection and hindi na ko nagkaroon ng balita sa kanya. Magkasing edad lang kami but he's older in months.
"Didn't you miss me?" He said still smirking like a devil, bumalik sya sa pagkakaupo sa stool at matamnan akong tinitigan.
"Miss your face. S-sino ka ba?" I stuttered. His piercing eyes are following my moves, I couldn't function, shit.
"I missed you, kitten." Walang bakas ng pagbibiro sa mukha nya, he actually looks pretty serious. And that's just weird.
"Yeah, I miss Zach too." Pambabara ko naman sa kanya.
"Still into him huh?" Tinalikuran nya ako at lumakad palabas ng kitchen, I heard him being greeted by mom and dad.
Sumunod naman ako at umupo sa tabi ni Mom. "You should totally come to Jian's party!" What? No! Pero syempre sa utak lang yun, I'm not that mean to not invite him to my party.
"Yeah. you should come." Bored kong sagot habang nagtitipa ng text sa aking phone.
"He'll come with us!" Sagot ni Tita.
Sigh
After ilang minutes ng pag kakalikot sa phone ko ay na bored na ako. Kaya naman nag paalam ako kay mom and dad na magpunta sa mall.
"Yeah sure, baby!" Sabi ni mom. "Besides aalis din kami nila tita mo, we're gonna check the new resto."
"Gusto mo bang magpahatid sa driver?" Tanong ni dad.
"Nope! I can ride a taxi." Nagpaalam na ako kila tita and tito bago lumabas.
I never really liked driving. Di ko alam kung takot ako o tamad lang talaga.
While I was walking to the taxi terminal, pansin ko na may sumusunod saakin na kotse. Who the hell...
Medyo malayo pa ako sa terminal kung saan may mga tao kaya naman super nag f-freak out na ako! I don't know that car, hindi ito familiar. tinted ang windows ng car kaya hindi ko din maaninang kung sino o sino-sino ang nasa loob.
Lord! Ayoko pa mamatay, magkaka boyfriend pa ako! Gusto ko pa magkaroon family. Zach!!
Nang maaninag ko na ang terminal at mga tao, ay dali dali akong tumakbo but-- nakita ko ang familiar na kotse ni Zach. Kaya naman doon ako dumiretso ng takbo, his car is parked pero naka on ang engine so mabilis kong binuksan ang door ng front seat, na hindi naka lock. Guess what? Vienne and Zach is passionately kissing, which I never should have seen.
"What the hell, Jian?!" Sigaw saakin ni Zach na nakapag gising sa ulirat ko.
"I-I'm sorry, I d-didn't know." Ofcourse, ako nanaman ang mag so-sorry. Tumingin ako kay Vienne na halatang nahiya dahil nakita ko ang ginawa nila.
"I'm sorry! I didn't know, I swear. I thought mag isa lang kasi ikaw, Zach. Hindi ko alam na nandito din pala si Vienne, may a-ano, may humaha-" I didn't get to finish what I was about to say, nang biglang may humawak sa aking braso.
"Sorry." Zion apologized while rubbing the back of his neck. "Bigla kasing tumakbo eh." Sinamaan ko sya ng tingin. The hell?! All these time sya yun?
"Ano ba ginagawa nyo dito?" Tanong ni Zach which made me roll my eyes. Eh sila ano ginagawa nila dito? Bakit dito pa sila nag hahalikan sa tabi ng kalsada. How cheap.
"Aalis kaming dalawa." Hinila nya ako papunta sa kotse nya. "See you later." Nang maka-sakay na kaming dalawa ay agad ko syang dinak-dakan, napaka pakielamero!
"Bwisit ka talaga kahit kailan!" Kakarating lang nya puro ka-epalan agad ang inaatupag nya!
"Don't call me bwisit, Kitten." He suddenly became serious. He's really weird and bipolar.
"I can call you whatever I want, Idiot." I crossed my arms at tumingin nalang sa labas. I don't even know kung saan kami papunta, di nalang ako nag reklamo.
I'm so fucking hurt. Ang sakit sakit na. Why is he so fucking numb? Hindi ba nya nararamdaman na nasasaktan na ako sa pinapakita nya? I miss the old Zach, I wonder what happened.
"Baba na." The car stopped, and we're at the mall.
"I don't feel like shopping anymore, uwi na tayo."
"You made me drive all the way here, tapos sasabihin mo ayaw mo na. Bakit hindi mo na sinabi kanina?" He asked in a surprisingly calm way.
"E-ewan." I said, before I felt him pull me towards him and hugged me tight.
"Baba na. Trust me, I'll make you forget the pain." And that triggered the tears na kanina ko pa tinitiis.
"Pano ako baba? Ang higpit ng yakap mo." I said, still sobbing.
