Getting Into High

Diez

"Estelle, it's been a week since you two meet up."

I just sighed and leaned on my chair. I sip on my glass of water before answering Xynea.

"Yeah, naghihintay lang ako."

"You're hired na nga, dapat pagkabukas na bukas non ay may duty ka na. You should try finding another job," she explained.

"No! I'll just wait."

Its been a week since we last talked. Akala ko nga pagkabukas non ay may duty na ako sa kanya, gumising pa naman ako ng maaga non at naghanda pa sa maisusuot ko, but sadly wala siya.

Siguro hindi niya alam ang number ko kaya ganoon? Naguguluhan ako sa kanya basta maghihintay lang talaga ako.

Days passed ay ganoon pa rin, parang ghinost ako ni Beaumont e. Hindi na rin ako pumupunta sa La Eternidad dahil wala akong kasama, hindi na kasi pumupunta din si Xynea. She's busy at something I don't know. Hindi na rin siya pumupunta sa bahay, I badly miss her!

"Next month will be the opening of class Estelle," Tita said while we are at the garden. I just nodded.

"Your mom or I, will pay your tuition fee okay?" she added and tapped my shoulder and then she stood up to go back inside.

I just sighed. Sana ako nga ang babayad ng tuition ko but sadly, Beaumont isn't serious about that Personal Assistant thingy.

Tumayo na ako at bumalik sa loob ng nakasimangot. I saw Kuya Everett sitting on the sofa while watching netflix.

"Hey, you didn't find a summer job?" he asked when he saw me looking at him.

"Yeah."

"Wow, impossible 'yon," he chuckled, inirapan ko nalang siya at humakbang na papunta sa kwarto ko.

I just sighed and took a shower. I have to find a another job for me to pay my tuition. I don't want to depend on them.

I did my skin care routine and dressed up. I just wear my medium gray poloshirt and I tuck in into my jeans. I add gucci belt to make it more fashionable. I didn't add some make up on my face, I just add a liptint on my lips and a cheek tint on my cheeks. I let my black hair straight, wearing my flats for my feet and my black slingbag.

Kinuha ko na ang envelop ko at lumabas galing sa kwarto ng may narinig ako nagkwe-kwentuhan sa baba, huminto muna ako para pakinggan iyon.

"Mabuti at napapunta ka ulit dito," tita's voice.

"Yeah."

I stiffined when I heard that familiar voice. My lips curved and my heart screams happiness!

Dali-dali kaagad akong bumaba at bago paman ako makaabot sa sala ay nakita ko naman si Kuya Everett na nakahilig sa dining table with his forehead furrowed.

He looked at me from head to toe, bigla nalang itong umiling-iling. "Date," he said

Naguguluhan akong tumingin sa kanya. "W-what?"

"Ang corny ninyo," bigla nalang siyang umalis sa harapan ko at humakbang papuntang taas.

Umiling-iling nalang ako habang dali-dali na pumunta sa sala.

My kness are wobbly like jelly. I gasped when I saw his outfit, making me bit my bottom lips while looking at him. He's wearing a medium gray longsleeve button down shirt and his black slacks. He comfortably sits in the sofa while looking at me.
