Nagising nalang ako ng walang ingay ng radio mula sa kabilang bahay
Himala to ha!
I went out of the bed and walk straight to my window and there he was! Still looking at the lamppost
Since there was a couch leveled to the window I sat there and stared on him
Hindi talaga siya tumingin sa akin eh! May something sa kanya na kakaiba pero hindi ko rin matukoy
"Good morning Mrs. Horan son!!!" I shouted on him, hindi ko parin kaya siya kilala!
Hindi niya pa rin ako pinapansin, instead may kinakapa siya sa hangin, still looking outside... Anong ginagawa niya?, and when the back of his hand touch the knob of the window he pull it and suddenly he shut the window again...
Wait...
Is he....
Oh my god!
I covered my mouth with my hand, still shock of what I've seen
Of all this time... I didn't notice it
I need to talk with my mom, maybe she know all about this
I rushed out at my room and running downstairs
I went to the kitchen and there she was cooking pancake
I sit at the stool and still thinking about how do I'll open it. I need to know if all on my mind was true, about him...
"Mom..."
She turn her back to face me
"What is it?" She said then turn her back at me to off the stove
"There was something I'm going to ask you"
She put the pancake at the plate and leaving it near at the stove . She remove her apron and hang it at the hook attach in the wall.
"Do you know the Horan family mom?"
She walk at my direction and sit in one of the stool
"Why do you ask about that?" She said curiously
"About Mrs. Horan son"
"You mean the eldest?... Mrs. Horan have 2 sons"
"Yes... about him"
"Oh... The one who have condition, what do you want to know about him? You're liking him aren't you?..." She put her two hands up at the table like a detective on an interview
"Condition? What do you mean about condition mom?" I ask, eagerly waiting for her answer
"He's blind darling for about 4 months, that's why they move here"
So it was true... He was really blind. Kaya pala hindi siya makatingin sa akin at iba yung mga galaw niya kumpara sa normal
I went back to my room after our conversation with my mom. I sit back at the couch under the window and there I was spend my time staring down at his close window.....I didn't even still know his name
I felt pang on my heart, it's not I'm pitying him, of course I was feel sorry for what happened to his eye... But it was a feeling that I couldn't find to myself
Ugh! Why do I'm thinking such things like this right now?!
"Kaia!" There's only one person who call me that name. I look down outside
"Kenna!" I shout back to my brunette latina friend who doesn't even know how to speak Latin whose standing at the pathway outside between the Horan and our house
"What are you doing here?" I said surprisingly
I let out my upper body at the window, holding the lower frame to support my body away from falling
"Are you free tonight?"She walk near at my window. Now we're look like Romeo and Juliet playing the veranda scene
"Another Partyyyyy?!" I said knowingly like hello? We're friends for 5 years and I always hear that phrase everytime she ask me to go out at the party
"You guess it right!!" She said like it was my first time to guess it. My Ghad! Bakit ba ako napalibutan ng mga abnormal?!
"Are you going to ride with me tonight?"
"Probably yes..."
"Okay... Then it's all settled" she said turning her back on me and started walking down the pathway
Ay... Yun lang yun
•••••••••
It's already 9 when Kenna message me that she's already waiting outside, so I went back at the mirror to check myself for the last time
I was wearing my classic crop top long sleeves, faded denim jacket and high waist jeans match with my leather ankle boots I also curled my hair into wavy and I wear light makeup
Since I know that mom will never let me go at the party I decided again to escape but this time,using my window.
I tour my eyes at my room scanning every corner, searching if Dexter installed some surveillance camera here, even I know it was impossible for him to put those things in my room... I just wanted to make it sure so I won't get caught again and get another blackmail!!! Who knows? Maybe Dex was some kind of mad wizards who use those freaking crystal ball... Wait, I thought only psychic use them...
Ugh Nevermind...
Pumunta ako sa bintana saka inilabas ang kaliwang pas at umupo dito. Tumingin ako sa baba Kung nandun pa rin ba ang garbage bag na nilagay ko kanina para tatalunan ko ngayon, nasa second floor kaya yung kwarto ko! Baka naman ma injure ako dahil dito no!
Okay I can do this
I ready myself from jumping, and I was here sitting at the window
Breath in... Breath out...
1...2...3 go!
I jump and...
"Aray!... Sakit ng pwet ko!..." Masakit parin pala siya kahit na may mga garbage bag
"Whose that?!"
Shit... No... Not my brother again
I look up slowly at my window but there was no one there
"I said who are you?!"
I roamed my eyes and I saw my handsome neighbor standing near at his window looking straight to somewhere with serious face
Patay talaga ako nito...
I hit my head using my hand trying to find a way on how to get out at this situation... Brain tulungan mo naman ako!
"Meow...."
Aba, galing ng utak ko ha! automatic! Yun agad nilabas ng bibig ko... sa dinarami-raming paraan yun patalaga naisipan ko
Bahala na Kailangan ko na tong panindigan...
"Meow... Meow meow..." Huhu para talaga akong timang dito...
"Stop acting like a fucking cat... I said who are you?"
Bakit ba ang hirap niyang papaniwalain?
Instead of answering his question, I turn my back and started tiptoeing out between our houses, hindi rin naman pala siya nakakakita
"Then go away! such a coward..."
What the?!
I look at my back again and I saw him shutting his window
Bulag ba talaga siya o Ano?
How do he know that I was walking away?
May power ba siya?
O kaya third eye?
Pano niya yun nalaman?
Ang talas naman ata ng pakiramdam niya?
