How To Hate Archer Nevyn (Finished)

Chapter 5

Chapter 5

"Morning, girlfriend."

Arabella Eurydice rolled her eyes as she entered inside Archer Nevyn's car, riding on the front seat beside him, "Hindi ko alam kung bakit pati si Mama, ayaw na akong pagamitin sa kotse ko. She told me I'm safer with you."

Archer gave her a smug grin, "Like I've always told you, I got my ways."

"Hi! Good morning, Ate!"

Eurydice got surprised when she heard another voice inside the car. Lumingon naman siya sa likod niya at napansin ang isang babae. The girl looked like a high school student and like Archer Nevyn, the girl got green eyes too, ang kaibahan lang, hindi brown-blonde ang buhok nito, it was pure black.

"Oh, that's my younger sister, Paige."

"H-Hi, Paige," Eury awkwardly smiled, "I'm Arabella Eurydice. Y-You can call me Arabella like everyone else--"

"I'll call you Eury, Ate, just like how my older brother calls you," Paige didn't let her finish and smiled sweetly at her, "I'm really excited to see you. You know, it's a first time kasi na sumusundo si Kuya Anjo ng girlfriend, I mean, you know naman na he's a fuckboy--"

"Paige, you're embarrassing me." Archer interrupted as he started to drive.

Eury couldn't help but to laugh at his sister's statement. Mukhang magkakavibes silang dalawa.

"Totoo naman kasi! Twenty-four ka na tapos wala ka pa ring naihaharap sa min ni Papa na girlfriend. Tapos two-timer ka pa! Gwapo ka ba?" Paige even crossed her arms, looking at Archer in disbelief, "Sorry, Ate Eury pero ano bang pinakain sayo ni Kuya? I mean you look matino, like you aren't one of those typical girls whom Kuya usually date, yung malalandi ang dating. You look like this Straight A's type of girl eh. Saka alam kong hinding-hindi mo talaga papatulan si Kuya, what happened Ate?"

"Sana talaga hindi ako nagvolunteer na ihatid ka sa school niyo--"

"Huwag kang magsalita, Kuya, hindi ikaw iyong kinakausap ko," Paige turned at Eury again and smiled, "Ano bang nagustuhan mo kay Kuya, Ate?"

Eurydice didn't expect Paige would be asking those questions, Archer's sister was really curious about them and she's also sure that he didn't tell his sister that everything between them is just fake.

"Uhm..."

"Don't be shy, Ate Eury. You can say ginayuma ka ni Kuya."

Instead of getting pressured to answer, Eurydice laughed again.

"Paige!" Archer reacted, sounding embarrassed, although his eyes were still on the road.

"Shut up, Kuya, ano ate? Anong meron kay Kuya aside na malandi siya?"

Eury stopped for a minute. She forced herself to remember all the good stuff about Archer Nevyn Joziah she heard in their university. Ang palagi niyang naririnig sa iba ay malandi ito, cheater, fuckboy, manloloko (ayon sa mga babaeng na hit-and-run nito), captain ng football team pero kahit running for Cum Laude for the Chemical Engineering graduating batch si Archer, mas nanaig pa rin ang pagiging babaero nito sa lahat ng estudyante sa university. He was just known by his charms and how easily he could get under the girls' clothes.

Fudge. Ano bang isasagot niya?

Then Eurydice suddenly remembered how Archer Nevyn snuck out a milktea for her, fetching her in her house kahit wala itong pasok sa umaga dahil sa hapon ang classes nito, waiting for her inside the library for hours even though he keeps annoying her - and bringing her art materials in behalf of herself.
