Seraphina

Chapter 2 (Neighbor)

Ang hiling ko lang naman, na kung sakaling sumikat man ako ay dahil sumali ako ng PBB at maging housemate ni Kuya o di kaya'y maging contestant ng showtime, magaling mag dub kagaya ni Maine Mendoza at higit sa lahat kahit man lang maging Vlogger sa Youtube na gumagawa ng kung anu-ano.

Hindi yung sisikat, dahil lang nakunan ako ng video. Dahil baka mag-viral sa social media at ang masaklap pa niya'n pagtatawanan ako dahil punong puno ng ice cream ang buong katawan ko. 

At aray ha ang sakit pa ng pwet ko.

Anakshutang kahihiyan ito?!!

Ano na lang sasabihin ng Mama kong may sapi kada umaga, Papa kong health conscious, mga kapatid kong tamad, lalong lalo na sa mga kamag-anak kong, kung manghusga akala mo naman napaka perpekto ng buhay.

Pero kahit naman anong sabihin o gawin ko may masasabi at masasabi parin sila. You know why? It's because we live in a world full of negative people. If only people will learn to understand one another, learn to appreciate one another's worth,  then this world would be a better place. I, thank you.

Oh diba,  Miss Universe! PAK! Ganern! 

Pero anyway,  highway.

I'm still sitting on the floor,  still shocked at what happened. Then I look at the people around me,  they were laughing, taking pictures or videos of me,  I don't know.

I wish I could just walk away. But I can't seem to stand up. Sobrang kahihiyan ang naramdaman ko ngayon. Parang naiiyak na nga ako eh.

Nagulat ako nang naramdaman kong may naglagay ng jacket sa katawan ko. Tinignan ko kung sino at nakitang si antipatiko pala yon.

"Are you just gonna sit there like a fool,  and let the people make fun of you?" Nakatangin na siya sakin. If I'm not mistaken mukha siya naaawa sakin. 

Well, I don't need his pity. I just want this motherfucker to get out of my sight.

I manage to stand up and look straight into his eyes, this despicable man.

"If you think, I'll thank you for giving your jacket to me so people will stop laughing at me then your wrong. I will never forget what happened. I will never forgive you." Taas noo akong naglakad palayo sa kanya hawak hawak ang jacket niya. Nakikita ko parin mga customer na nakatingin sa amin, pero tinigil narin ang pagkuha ng pictures or video.

Before I could open the door bigla siyang nagsalita.

"Actually,  my plan is just to lend you my jacket,  I didn't say I'm gonna give it to you,  though." He said it with amusement and to think there's more meaning to his words like he's making me look like I assume something.

Duuhh.. Tse!

Before I walk away I just want to do something to get even.

I throw his jacket into his face,  and I saw how shock he was.

That's suits you right, bastard!

I let myself out of the store and go back to the village.

I saw Manong guard and said,  "Welcome back,  Ma'am!"

Nginitian ko na lang ito at nagmadaling pumasok sa loob ng village. Dalawang kanto lang ang lalagpasan ko tapos diretso nasa bahay.
