First Love, Last [Slow Update]

"So kapatid mo 'yon 'di ba?" Even I couldn't recognize my own voice. Kailan ba ako naging malambing ng ganito?

"Yes nga." May kasama pa'ng tawa iyon.

"What's her name?" I asked still clinging unto him.

"Dominique, we call her Dom." Prente'ng sagot niya.

"Sa'n mo siya iniwan?"

"Nasa carpark siya."

"Do you she'll like me?"

"Of course, who wouldn't like you?" He kissed my forehead.

"But you left her because of me!" I pouted, at mas isiniksik ko ang sarili sa kaniya. I know, damn clingy!

"She's mabait."

At dahil maliit lang ang campus ng HTC mabilis lang namin narating ang carpark.

From there I saw Dominique. She has bangs and just like me sobra'ng straight rin ng kaniya'ng buhok, she's wearing a ribbon headband. She is really girly, she literally look like a pink crayon! But it's no big deal.

Nang makita niya'ng papalapit kami'ng dalawa ay agad siya'ng ngumiti at kumaway. Ang kaba'ng kanina ko pa pilit na pinapahupa ay humupa na nang makita ko siya'ng ngumiti.

Her white fury jacket fell down her milky shoulder. May hawak rin siya'ng Chanel handbag.

"Hi! Kuya!" She hugged her brother then looked at me. "Hi! You must be Eudescey! I heard so much about you!" Nagbeso siya sa akin. Agad na gumaan ang pakiramdam ko sa kaniya.

I suddenly felt guilty that Xav had to leave her just to explain.

"Let's go na? I'm pretty sure may iba pa'ng kuya'ng nami-miss si Dom." Nakita ko ang pagpula ng pisnge ni Dominique, she's not wearing make-up maybe just a little bit of powder and lip tint, but she doesn't have heavy make-ups.

I offered Dom the shotgun seat but she refused. So I ended up on the shotgun seat and her at the backseat.

Dom is so spontaneous! Kinda like Pj but someone with much more sense.

"You know!? Nagtanong pa 'yan si kuya Xav kay kuya Xyrus and kuya Xavier kung paano man ligaw kasi 'di mo daw pala napapansin!" Napatawa kami'ng dalawa ni Dom. Kaya pala medyo naging bago ang pakikitungo niya sa akin.

I looked at him to tease him. He was driving with one hand, yung kabila naman ay nakapatong sa bintana at kinakagat niya. He looks so red!

"Dom..." Banta niya sa kapatid.

"What?" Dom uttered while still laughing, she's almost crying! Nadadala tuloy ako.

"Stop..." I can literally hear from his voice the embarrassment.

"Tapos sabi ni kuya Xavier ayaw daw ng girls sa conyo kaya ayun! Nagbasa siya ng diksyonaryo!" Mas natawa pa kami ni Dom.

"Try hard ka!" I laughed.

"Pero gano'n pa'rin! Conyo pa'rin!" Dom laughed.

We heard him sigh.

On that short drive I learned a lot about Xav's family. There are six of them on the family, their parents, the eldest Xyrus, second eldest Xavier, then him and the youngest Dominique.

Dom is so welcoming, wala siya'ng pinakitang pangit sa akin.

I think it's a good thing sana ay gano'n rin ang iba'ng family members ni Xavion sa akin.

"I'll see you tomorrow," Xav pulled in front of our mansion.

"Wala'ng klase tomorrow." I answered while unbuckling my belt.
