Story of a girl wanting to hide her identity from the world. Hide her powers... Herself. Will she be able to hide that little secret of her's forever? Or will it unfold like a blomming flower?
"Ugh! Ah! Ugh! Ah!" I shouted as I throw punches towards the punching bag. I was pissed. A guy from math class threw a crumpled paper at me. Nakakatuwa ba yun? Sapakin ko siya eh.
"Ma'am, ready na po yung lunch niyo." a maid spoke out of the blue. Ano ba? Balak niyo ba akong patayin sa gulat or something?
"Papunta na, Ya. 10 minutes more."
"Oh siya sige. Basta kumain ka ha! Nako! Baka magpalipas ka na naman ng gutom papatayin na ako ng Mommy mo."
"Di yan, Ya. Ako bahala. Kakain ako. Promise."
"Oh sige baba na ako. Bilisan mo."
"Opo!" I shouted. I went back to punching the bag. I also need to be fit na din kasi. Malapit na 18th birthday ko. Baka di magkasya yung gown. Sayang naman. Hehe. Well it's in 5 months pa naman. Medyo OA lang ako. But still. Time flies really fast. You should make the best out of it, diba?
"You're skipping meals again?" a voice spoke. Putcha balak niyo ba talaga akong patayin?
"Nope. I won't. Kakain na ako in a bit. I'll just finish my routine." I said. Di na ako humarap dun sa nagsalita. Kilaka ko naman yun eh. Si Mark. Best friend ko yun since grade school hanggang ngayong Senior High. Madalas dumalaw yun sa bahay. Mas madalas pa sa dalaw ko. Kala mo regla.
"Bala ka jan. Uubusin ko talaga pagkain niyo. Masarap pa naman."
"Ano ba yung pagkain?"
"Lasag-" di ko na siya pinatapos. Tumakbo na agad ako pababa. Can't skip lunch today. Nuh-Uh. Nako pag favorite ko talaga napapatakbo ako eh.
"Well that was a new way of letting someone answer." Mark whispered. Sorry naman. Patay gutom lang.
I went down as fast as I can. Sumunod na din sakin si Mark. I checked the table and-
"Steak?! Akala ko- MARK!"
"I would run now, right?" Mark asked.
"Oo." I gave him the deadliest glare I could ever give. Di naman sa ayaw ko sa Steak pero I'm just not fond of those kinds of food. Mas gusto ko ng comfort food. Kaya hinbol ko si Mark. Bahala na. Manloloko eh.
"Akala mo nakakatuwa yun? Putcha asang asa akong Lasagna yun tas hindi pala. Isa pang ganun papakain na talaga kita sa mga asong gala." I let go of him. Kakain na nga lang din ako. Sayang naman yung pagbaba at paghabol ko sa Mokong na to kung di din ako kakain. Hay. Damn you Mark.
"Geez. Sorry, okay? I just did that para kumain ka naman. Mukha ka nang bangkay, can't you see?" He said sabay hawak sa braso ko. He stood up and continued with a serious face. "Stop starving yourself, Eden. Mas di yun nakakatuwa."
"Opo, Papa!" I rolled my eyes. Pinatuloy ko na yung pagkain at sumabay na din si Mark. Tig isa kaming rib eye. Wow di naman ako nainform na part na pala si Mark sa budget ng pamilya namin.
"I'll just train upstairs. If someone looks for me tell 'em na wala ako. Ayoko ng istorbo pagnagte-training. Sige na. Bye." I said after I finished the whole rib eye. Masarap naman pala. Judgemental lang ako.
"Hey baby. I'm back. I miss you so much" I whispered as I kissed my gold Dan Wenson revolver. Old but classy. I haven't touch that since last vacation which was a year ago.
