Jessie's POV
I'm waiting for Clark's car outside our house with my mother and my older brother beside me.
Yeah, I'm that one friend na medyo strict ang parents. Plus a kuya who's overprotective. Well dad is not really that paranoid. Umaangal lang siya when there are male species involve. But he's in a business trip right now so he doesn't need to know. At least, for now.
May malaking backpack akong dala. I originally plan to bring just a small shoulder bag pero may pakiramdam akong three days kaming mananatili doon. It's Thursday today and tomorrow will be just for clubs so I'm guessing na may magsusuggest ng extension.
Nagdala na ako ng mga extrang damit, new underwears and other necessities in case na mangyari yung hula ko. I'm sure the girls would only bring things enough to last them an hour or more.
Halos memorize ko na yung mga bilin ni mama na ilang beses niyang inulit-ulit. Kuya is here to scrutinize the boys. He'd known Jean, Lisha and Roselle for years. It's actually our first time being friends with a bunch of guys kaya medyo nag-aalinlangan sila. But I told them they're Jacob's group of friends.
Kuya Jason knows him personally. Pero hindi ko alam kung paano sila nagkakilala dalawa kasi sa ibang school naman nag-aaral si kuya. I never ask him or Jacob about how and why they knew each other.
My thoughts were interrupted by an approaching black car. It looked familiar and it took me a while to recognize that it belongs to Clark.
I held the straps of my bag tightly. "You can go inside now mom, kuya." sinubukan ko silang itaboy pero si mommy pa ang unang sumalubong sa sasakyan. I groaned nang sumunod si kuya sa kanya.
Nagpapadyak-padyak akong naglakad palapit sa kanila. I hope si Roselle lang yung bumaba. It would be easier if they won't see Harley and Clark. Baka kasi kung ano-ano ang itanong nila. Nakakahiya.
Muntik na akong mapasigaw nang maabutan ko si Bern sa labas ng gate kaharap ni mom at kuya. Pawis na pawis at mukhang ginigisa na.
OH MY GOD.
"Boyfriend ka ba ng kapatid ko?"
"Anong buong pangalan mo hijo? Saang angkan ka galing?"
"What does your family do?"
"Anong kaya mong gawin para sa anak ko? Pipi ka ba hijo?"
"Kailan kayo magpapakasal?"
