Rigel is an alien to Earth, he knows nothing about it since Google doesn't exist on outer space. He has no clothes... Expect the ones he is wearing, of course. (keeping this book child friendly.)
Halley decided to make umit-umit to her brother's closet. Big Brother doesn't visit Halley often on her house so she was a bit confident he won't come.
Halley opened her brother's room, both of them were stunned. From pink bed to cabinets, most of the stuff inside are pink.
And of course, a crap ton of Super Mario stuff.
"Is this really your brother's room?" He asked with hesitation.
She simply nodded and quickly opened Kuya's closet. Once again, both of them were shooktd. His clothes were screaming KAWAII~
Big Brother is currently on Japan with his wife which Halley describes as 'Hapong Hilaw' so she didn't mind making halukay as if she was in ukay-ukay.
The current clothes that are Rigel's currently wearing is his Kuya's. She saw it in a bin named 'Not Pretty Pink Clothes'.
"Try this one on." She handed Rigel a pink sweater. He looked disgusted with the sweater. He has mixed feelings on it, disgusted and confused.
He stared at Halley's face with a blank expression or maybe it's really an unreadable expression.
"Pre, ano? Di mo ba gusto?" She raised her eyebrow at him.
'Ang arte' Her mind said as if mapapagsuot mo siya ng brief above her leggings.
"It's pink. The color looks girly to me, don't you think?"
"Exactly! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" She laughed histerically like the Evil Queen.
"Bakit ka tumatawa?"
She rolled her eyes, not realizing that he is from another place called Outer Space and this creature haven't experience humor for his entire existence.
Finally, Halley just decided to pick a shirt on the 'Not Pretty Pink Clothes' bin to satisfy Rigel's picky taste. She also decided to buy him some new clothes and some personal stuff on the Mall. Laspag nanaman ang credit card!
"Rigel, let's go!"
People were staring at them, not in a judging manner but in a Notice Me Senpai way.
"Syet! Ang pogi naman ni Kuya!" A random frog exclaimed while making kapa her bulsa to bring out her phone. Syempre, pipicturan at i-uupload para may bago na tayong pagpyepyestahan sa Facebook.
"Ang ganda ng kasama niya, pero mas maganda ako." Umirap siya ng masense ng 7th sense niya na parang may relasyon ang dalawa.
"Miss, can I get your number? You're my style." A wild Jejemon1 arrived wearing a "fashionable" EXO 88 with EXO cap. (Though he doesn't really know them.)
"Hi, miss sexy 😏." And a wild Jejemon2 appeared to help Jejemon1 wearing a "usong uso" Supreme tee with BTS JIN 92 cap
Rigel wrapped his arms around her giving those people a sign to back off. Our bida is kind of kilig kilig and feel na feel ang pangyayari.
They went to a grocery store to buy him his basic necessites. Rigel was not aware of what these stuffs are and what are they for, so while picking up things, Halley was elaborating the products which made her look like a Promodiser.
Shampoo, so you won't attract kuto. Soap, so you won't attract putok. Toothbrush with it's bff, Toothpaste so you won't attract tartar.
While picking things up, she later realizes... 'Does he really need these? I mean he's a--' She still bought the items anyway so...
Halley Callisto's POV
"You need a phone." Hinatak ko sya papunta sa Cyberzone. At since wala nanaman syang alam tungkol sa mga phone, 3210 nalang yung binili ko sa kanya. Ano ko, rits? 😂
Parehong unit ng phone ko yung binili ko sa kanya. Mukha namang gustung gusto naman niya kasi mula kanina, hanggang ngayon na naglalakad kami papunta sa favorite kong resto, kinakalikot parin nya.
"Halley, danke sehr! [thank you]"Sabi nya habang nagniningning yung mga mata nya.
I just smiled at him because I don't really know what he's talking about. Cheret, I knew it was thank you, I googled kaya.
"Good afternoon po, Ma'am!" I smiled at him for greeting us and welcoming us in.
Umupo rin kami dun sa favorite spot ko, sa dating nakagawian. Matagal na rin akong hindi nakakapunta rito simula nung... Simula nung naghiwalay kami ni Ronn.
"Ma'am, tagal nyo na rin pong di nakakadalaw rito ah?" Sabi nung parehong waiter na bumati sakin kanina.
"Oo nga eh, hehe." Medyo awkward kong pagkakasabi. Kuya, di tayo close, ok?
"Ano pong order nyo, Ma'am?" I ordered my favorite, chicken wings. And of course may drink. Baka mabulunan, hello.
"Yun lang po, Ma'am? Tsaka, asan na po yung kasama nyo lagi? Ayun! Si sir Ronn?" Di ako makasagot. Natulala ako sa pagiging walang hiya ng crew na 'to. Parang nagplay sa utak ko yung mga memories namin ni Ronn dito.
Binagsak ni Rigel yung kamay niya sa mesa na ikinagulat naming dalawa nung waiter.
"Ma'am ka nang Ma'am, siya lang ba customer mo? Am I invisible?" Natulala lang kami ni kuyang feeling close sa kanya. Medyo nataranta ng konti yung crew dahil sa pagkakasita sa kanya ni Rigel.
"S-sorry Sir. Nacurious lang po ako dahil tagal nawala rito ni Ma'am." Sabay peace sign nya. Tinitigan lang nya ng masama yung waiter.
Sinerve na samin yung mga inorder namin at bigla akong nagwapuhan sa nasa harap ko ngayon. Feeling ko sya na si forever. Ekew ne be se mester reght? CHICKEN WINGS 😍
"Tititigan mo lang ba yang chicken wings o kakainin mo?" PAKSYET CHICKEN WINGS NAMISS KITA ALABYU SARANGHAE HART HART WO AI NI AISHITERU 💗💖💘
Third Person's POV
"Salamat sa mga tinuro mo. It makes me more comfortable here in Earth. I feel more human. Thank you for those things you bought me. Thank you for being my guide in this planet.... Yah!" He shouted after realizing she was not listening. All she did was to admire her 'Oh So Delicious' Chicken Wings. He felt so dumb.
"Ano? Bat ka naninigaw, magkaharap lang tayo!"
"Wala, just eat. Let's go home. Sayo narin 'to. Nawalan ako ng gana." He handed her his plate and let her eat.
They finished eating and waited for the bus at 'Paterminal ni Mayor' Terminal. Halley saw Rigel yawning and drowsing around. She found it cute.
The bus came and they quickly secured their seats.
"Meister.. I feel dizzy."
"Kaka-cellphone mo yan! Matulog ka muna, gigisingin na lang kita pag bababa na tayo." He hugged her and she quickly kept Rigel's beloved box because she was aware of holdapan.
Halley was thankful of Rigel saving her from Kuya Waiter. If she was alone, she could never answer those questions and she would feel humiliated.
She fixed his messy hair and whispered, "Thank you."
