Vianca's POV

"Yes, I know. But, Tita...d-do I have to? .... again? .... fine, I'll just change. Bye tita."

Pinagmasdan ko siyang matamlay na binabalik ang cellphone niya sa bulsa. Nagpakawala din siya nang mabigat na buntong hininga.

"You going again?" Sabi ko at lumapit sa kaniya kung saan siya nakatayo. Sa veranda ng bahay. "Anong magagawa ko? Nandun na naman siya. At, si Tita naman...." bumuntong hininga na naman siya. Say that you're tired. Atleast once. Don't make yourself a woman of steel. You're not that kind of person. I wish I could say that to her. But, even if I say it, asa pang makikinig siya. She's good at playing deaf.

"Gawin mo kayang tanggihan si Tita Meldyn. Kung tutuusin naman, you've been in-out in that situation for two years. Isn't that enough?" Sabi ko.

Umiling siya at sinamaan ako ng tingin. "No, and it will never be enough." She walked away from me, leaving me in the veranda alone. Hayst, how can she be so dull? She keeps on blaming herself. It wasn't her fault. At bakit ba punta ng punta yung taong yun dun!? Margaux should enjoy her vacation. Dahil siguradong, pagbalik namin galing vacation, tambak na naman kami sa mga school works. A lot of stress! Aigoo...

Lumapit ako sa railings ng veranda at pinagmasdan ang mother nature. Hmmm..fresh air! Charoott, Manila toh bes, anong fresh air!? Naka-drugs u? HAHA.

Calling...
Vernon ♡ babe

"Good morning yeobo." I said sweetly to him. Hindi kasi kami nagkausap kahapon dahil sumunod siya kina Chad at Light after nung suntukan. Di nga sana ako papayag na sumunod siya pero nagpumilit eh. Kaya hinayaan ko na lang. Pero nakakapag-tampo din, mas inuna pa niya si Light kesa sa akin. Hmp! But, atleast, nageffort siyang bigyan ako ng boquet ng paborito kong bulaklak.

"Good morning jagi~! Are you dressed all ready?" Sagot naman niya sa phone.

Tumango ako kahit hindi naman niya nakikita, "Ne, where are you actually taking me?" I asked for the 10th time already. I keep on buzzing about our whereabouts this day on text. But, he wouldn't really budge a thing. Sabi niya, maganda daw dun sa pupuntahan namin. He assured me that I will like it. Nagmayabang nga siya na baka kung pumunta na kami dun, di na ako aalis. Tsk. Yabang.

"Jagi, you asked me that several times. You're really relentless."

I crinckled my nose and shook my head. I'm not satisfied with his answer. "Vernon...." I warned him not to tease me with this kind of thing. "Sorry jagi, you just need to wait. Stay where you are, okay? Annyeong." And then hanged up on me.

Tsk! He's been acting weird on the phone this morning. I keep on asking question and he, on the other hand, keeps on douging everything. Hindi naman ako matahimik dahil dun. Di naman siya yung type na secretive. He is very vocal and sharing when it comes to this thing. And this side of him, I don't like it. I was eager to know kung anong binabalak niya to the point na even his bandmates ay tinanungan ko na. Pero pare-pareho lang naman sila ng sagot eh. Puro, 'i don't know' or 'i have no idea'. Eh~ naiinis na ako sa totoo lang!

"Sige naman oh! Kahit clue lang! Sabihin niyo naman oh!"

"Noona, I have no idea on what you just told me right now, but I'm guessing its still about Vernon hyung. And for the last time Noona, I have no idea. Now Noona, I gotta go. Annyeong."
