Getting Into High

Uno

"Sinayang mo kasi. Kung hindi mo sana iniw-"

Mariavale, my cousin walk towards me while carrying the two bowls of popcorn. She offered me the one bowl, signalling me to get if from her. I don't want to waste her effort to cook it so I grab the bowl immediately from her even I don't want to eat because I'm not hungry, and the thing is... I lost my appetite because of the man I saw in our television.

"Kung hindi ko siya iniwan, hindi sana ako nagkaganito, maybe I'm a certified martyr if I didn't left him," I answered and it makes her chuckled.

Yes, if I didn't leave him, I'm not this kind of girl right now. I'm thankful for myself because I went through a lot but still, I achieve this achievements that I didn't expected. And if I didn't leave him, maybe, I'm the poorest girl in the world because of a man like him. Not because of the money but because of the characteristics that he have.

She shook her head, smile is plastered on her face. "Bitter."

My eyes went back directly on the television infront of us. While hugging my throw pillow I watch as the reporters go wild when someone enters the venue and walks on the red carpet. There he is wearing a black coat and a white longsleeve poloshirt in the inner with his black necktie, partnered with his black slacks and a pair of shiny black shoes for his feet.

He was with his cold and serious aura. He barely smiles but girls fall for him. He have that strong aura that gathers girl or flocks in him. That's his asset, the authority that he have even if he's just a student before. Until now, he doesn't change.

I can't help but to remember what he is before and he is still. His thick eyebrows met when he's confused. His eyes screams authority, like you're his servant. His pink and kissable lips. Who knows that even his lips is so attractive. Oh damn.

I shook my head. What I am thinking?!

Many camera man's were taking a picture of him created a flashes on the crowd. He stopped walking and the reporters were so wild and went to his direction quickly.

"Engineer, what's your plan about the construction of Aylina Mall?" The reporter asked while the mini microphone is infront of him.

"We talked about Mr. Callum about it, just wait for the further details," he stated in a cold tone and confidently went out of the crowd.

I can't believe that he's popular right now, well his company is known because of him, pinalago niya ito kaya naging ganyan. I'm so proud of him--- proud kaya siya sa'kin? But I think, he doesn't care anymore and I don't care as well!

"Syempre hindi. Hindi ka niya nga nakita ulit, ano ka presidente para malaman ng lahat ha?!" She sarcastically replied.

Nasabi ko naman siguro ang nasa isip ko!

Napangiwi nalang ako. I rolled my eyes once again and look at the television infront of us. I gasped when I saw a familiar lady wearing her red fitted dress as she step towards him but the television turn off unexpectedly.

"Hey! Bakit mo pinatay?!"

"You're still inlove with that boy until now? Bwisit ka Ariadne Estelle Zeateia, tigilan mo yan," she warned as she pointed the television with a disgusting look on her face.

"What? N-no I'm not still inlove with that boy!" I grumbled, stood up and walk away.

She followed me here in the kitchen and she leaned on the countertop with her arms crossed and leg cross. "Are you sure you're going back there?"

Well, even if she's that real talk and bitch, she have the good heart inside her but many of them didn't see it.

This past few days I've been thinking about kung talagang susundin ko ang utos ni Daddy. Kaya niya namang gawin 'yon mag-isa. He can handle that for pete's sake and again I'm not the part of the company! It is his company and not mine, and I don't have any plans to become the new owner of it. We talked about it before, but why does he need me right now when I don't know about the business that he is running.

I sighed. "Yes. Daddy needs help."

"Help or going back to him?" She said, smirking.

I arched a brow. "Sino nga yung umalis dahil ni real talk lang? Hindi ko sinabing si Mariavale pero parang ganoon na nga."

She looked away. "You bitch."

That's her weakness!

Many people were glancing at me, they were murmuring and keeps on mentioning my name. They were taking picture of me and my friends but we just continue walking, didn't mind them.

"Give me a hug!" Wilford spread his arms.

He is my great great boy bestfriend since then. He has that Fil-am beauty because his mother were a pure Filipina while his father is a American.

I cringe. "No! Baka magalit ang fans mo."

He chuckle. "I will gonna miss you."

"Tigilan mo 'ko," I cackle and glance at Mariavale.

Her arms crossed while wearing her poker face look. She's acting weird since last week and I don't know why.

"You will gonna miss me, won't you?" I said, teasing.

She raise her middle finger on me. "Fuck you."

We laughed.

I hugged Mariavale and kiss her cheeks and then I stepped back. Wilford pouted.

"Take care," he stated with his jealous look.

"Sus, crush mo lang siguro ako. Aminin mo na nga."

"Asa ka," he cackle.

"Bar tayo when I get there," Mariavale interrupted.

I smiled while shooking my head. "Adik."

After that asar moments, we bid our goodbye's because flight ko na. Magkikita pa naman kami sa Pilipinas dahil susunod daw sila. I'm not sure tho, but I hope they will come.

His feature flash on my mind again. Damn, it's not so healthy! It's a disease that the doctors can't cure! Umiling nalang ako sa aking naisip at itinuon ang mga mata sa mga ulap na nasa labas ng bintana.

Wish that I can be a cloud so I can get up high without even trying.

I sighed.
