Chapter 2 *Machiko*

"IDIOOOOTTTT"

"Ilang beses ko 'bang sasabihin don't overdo it, you stupid nerd." Sobrang nagpupudyos ang galit ko dahil hinahanap na ako ni dad, and his right now very angry because he found out I didn't come back in the hotel last night.

I'm freaking out, Dad may be a cool person and an easy going but there some limit to it, he never allows me to sleep over with random people including friends house. Umuwi na akong late, 'wag lang makikitulog sa hindi ko bahay. Dad is so strict into that stuff, I thought since they're busy with the wedding preparation and the party last night I thought makakalusot ako without being noticed.

I was wrong I guess.

Kinakabahan ako habang nagsusuot ng bra, pinupulot ni levi ang mga gamit 'kong nagkalat sa kwarto niya. "Fuck," I cursed when I can't hook my bra for some reason.

"Let me help you," He went straight to me holding my things, mabilis niyang nai-hooked ang bra ko but I'm so pissed that I pinch his arms enough for him to groan in pain. "Arg! Mahal mo talaga ako." Aniya namimilipit sa sakit.

"Five letters! 'kapal' mo. Six letters 'manyak' gago."

The funny thing is that Levi groaned in agony somehow didn't shove my hands, hinayaan niya akong kurutin siya at pumikit na lamang at nagkagat labi sa sakit medyo natatawa pa ito. He let me out the frustration I'm feeling. I stopped from pinching him and turned my back. Bigla akong nakaramdam ng guilt it must have hurt. I'm sorry.

I can't laugh.

I went straight to the bathroom, doon ako nagbihis ng mabilisan, naghilamus inayos ang mukha tinanggal lahat ng trace 'kung saan mapaghahalataan akong 'di nakitulog sa kaibigan bagkus nakipaglaro ng apoy. Tinitigan ko ang mukha ko sa salamin. "Bitch."

Lumabas akong bathroom, natagpuan itong nilalapag ang nakatray na gatas at cereals sa ibabaw ng kama. He gave me a smile at umiling pa tila hindi makapaniwala. "What?" I asked sassily.

"Wala. Eat breakfast first, ihahatid kita." Levi patted the bed, asking me to sit there.

"Nagmamadali ako Levi, I need to go," Sabi ko sabay kuha sa bag 'kong sa may ibabaw ng study table niya. "'wag mo na 'rin akong ihatid, I'll call a friend of mine to come pick me up." Kinuha ko ang phone to call one of my friends.

I heard him sighed and mumbled something but wasn't reachable in my ears to hear. Napasulyap ako.

"Hello. Machiko? bish, sira ulo ka you're dad's been calling each of us, asking your whereabouts. hindi ka 'raw umuwi? where are you?" halong pagdududa ang boses.

Maingay ang background ni Kylie, tila pinapaligiran ito. She's not home? The voices in the background seem familiar by the way.

"Goodmorning too bitch. I'm with a friend. I'd talked to my dad already. Can you pick me up?"
